The first is that I have about 10 percent of my portfolio invested in Apple. The second is that my portfolio, once flying high, is down about 8 percent. Probably no more so than you are.
Many investors wish a similar fate on their financial advisors since the recent downturn.
May I suggest to those who would scan this column in search of investment advise to look at my point of view as just one more modest indicator, kind of like the odd-lots short sale index in the Investor's Business Daily. After all I'm only privy to the same information sources that are available to us all. I don't have Greenspan's personal phone number and Steve, my man, isn't returning my phone calls. My only advantage is that sans life I have gobs of free time to research this stuff, let it congeal on my G3, strain it through the rose colored glass of my profit mongering brain and serve it up as an informative quiche for you, the reader, as an entertaining, and perhaps, educational treat. All I can promise is that my facts, when present, will be accurate and double-checked.
