Unfortunately, the current market enthusiasm has probably finished out this particular game. European Warrant, which sold at an average discount of 20.4 percent in 1996, returned a stunning 148.8 percent in the last twelve months. But it is now at a nominal discount of 2.8 percent. That's too much heavy breathing for me, thanks. If in doubt, take two aspirin and an index fund.
Passivity is still the best bet.
The gardening section, however, may have to wait a while. Questions of general interest will be answered in future columns.
