About Me

"There's no such thing as unrealistic goals, only unrealistic deadlines"

'The market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent'

John Keynes

Have experience for a few brokerage firms in business development. (Investment)
Am also a retired Military Intelligence Officer (Major) and Russian Translator. (MAJ) Get it? InvestmentMAGE (MAJ)

My approach is ‘all source intelligence’ Analysis. In the intelligence field there are no coincidences. I consider the same to be true of the Market. I focus on fundamentals Value Investing
(Benjamin Graham) though I dabble a bit in Technical Analysis (the ‘dark side’)

I aspire to becoming an actual investment research analyst someday.
