    The Smartest Thing China Could Do Right Now: Invest US$ 200 Billion in Brazil.

    In this environment I'd say stay out . . . Caution, caution, caution, first and foremost. . . Look, even the greatest players such as Jim Rogers, Linda Raschke, Marc Faber, Michael Covel, Dr Brett Steenbarger and Mark Mobius are having a hard time playing this market. I'd say stay out...

    Music of the Markets

    Interesting, isn't it . .. Here's another interesting tool, NYSE's MarkeTrac: http://marketrac.nyse.com/mt/index.html It didn't make me any money, though. But it's still a nice picture to look at. What it gives you is thrill. And, arguably, that's more important than money. HiddenAgenda...

    Best Blogs

    To the OP: thank you for the list of blogs. I am sure many of them should prove useful. Then again, because we can't really verify the claims of bloggers (without invading their privacy), their success stories should not be taken at face value. HiddenAgenda http://dr-morpheus.blogspot.com/

    Music of the Markets

    Where the world's millionaires live

    I'm surprised Russia isn't on the list, maybe because we have more billionaires than millionares :D One thing is certain through: they didn't make their money by trading online (well, neither did Warren Buffet, for that matter). They made it offline in the 1990's, by "converting" (many...

    "Trading as a Business" quant interview, highly recommended

    It may seem a little counterintuitive, but sounds like the right thing to may be to just get a good, liquid ETF, e.g. SPY (or a broader one based on the Wilshire 5000), and relax. Unless you're a good algo trader with thoroghly backtested ideas, a pro. Just do what you REALLY like - sailing...

    "There is no spoon" -- an extreme opinion on gold in an obscure blog

    Hey Iron Dog, good link, interesting article! When it comes to gold, it's best to take a metaphysical view, in my opinion: http://www.financialsense.com/Experts/2008/Taylor.html Because if you don't, it's very difficult to figure out how exactly the precious metal is being manipulated...

    "Trading as a Business" quant interview, highly recommended

    Interesting mix of views. Thankfully, the tone of the discussion is polite and respectful. It's interesting the interview mentions small-cap stocks as a market with some potential for applying TA successfully (if I'm reading it correctly). Any good sources, blogs or publications which...
