australian small cap investigator

Last week I gave you a primer on buying shares.  This week I’ll take you through how to sell shares. As you might guess, the process isn’t that different.  So a lot of what we wrote last week will be repeated this week. But before I get onto that, I’ve received a number of related [...]

Just a quick Money Morning today.  We’re getting stuck into the January issue of Australian Small-Cap Investigator. And seeing as it’s Friday, we’ll wrap up an old topic.  Rather than start a new one. Let’s be honest.  We can’t blame the mainstream economists for claiming the Queensland floods will stimulate the economy. I mean, they’re [...]

Editor’s note: It was as bit of an unconventional week here at Money Morning. We asked the five editors of our investment newsletters some questions on how they fared over the year…and what highs and lows they see looming in 2011. Here are some highlights. Normal Money Morning services will resume on Tuesday.] Dan Denning, [...]

Let’s be honest, if you were a buy and hold investor from mid 2000 onwards you’d be pretty disappointed with your return.
Sure, you could have got some pretty good dividends, plus a capital gain. But considering the risks the [...]

As Kris sets off to work on the next issue of Australian Small-Cap Investigator, I’ve got to be honest, I was scratching my head this morning wondering what to write about.
I thought about tackling property (again), but I’ve only just emptied the Money Morning mailbag from yesterday and so didn’t want to create more work [...]

Your editor is in Australian Small-Cap Investigator mode again this morning, so we may be brief with today’s Money Morning – unless we get carried away…
“Oh stop grumbling and just hand over the money.” That’s in effect what the German government is being told to do with its taxpayer euros.
According to the Associated Press [...]

One of our ongoing themes in Australian Small-Cap Investigator is alternative energy stocks. Tiny small-cap stocks that could see you either triple your money stake or lose the lot.
We’re not that fussy over what the alternative energy is, as long as it’s what I like to call a game-changer.
In other words, something like the [...]

Your editor reports in from rainy Frankston this week. While the missus is off supervising a school trip to Canberra we’re stuck at home on school pick-up and drop-off duty.
We’re not sure that being down here in Frankston will add any different perspective to when we normally write from St Kilda, but you never [...]

If your editor was a trader, the big trade we’d take a swing at now would be to bet against the banks again.
But make no mistake, when we mention the word ‘bet’ we mean it. We’re not talking about rigorous fundamental analysis that we do for Australian Small-Cap Investigator or Australian Wealth Gameplan. [...]

We’ll explain our ridiculous headline shortly. But first…
Yesterday we crossed the t’s on the March issue of Australian Small-Cap Investigator, today we just need to dot the i’s so we can send the March issue out while it’s still March.
If you’re a subscriber – if all goes according to plan – you should see [...]
