Great Weekend Reading

I leave you with some great Warren Buffett quotes (they apply to today’s market and any market for that matter):

Risk comes from not knowing what you’re doing.

Wide diversification is only required when investors do not understand what they are doing.

Only when the tide goes out do you discover who’s been swimming naked.

A public-opinion poll is no substitute for thought.

If past history was all there was to the game, the richest people would be librarians.

Let blockheads read what blockheads wrote.

The investor of today does not profit from yesterday’s growth.

Listen to My Audio Interview

As promised, the audio version of my Trader Interview with Tim Bourquin is now loaded in the widget below. The interview lasts about 20 minutes covering topics such as how/ when I started trading, the types of fundamental screens I use each night and the four of charts I study for each stock I research.

The interview can also be heard on the Trader Interview website or this direct permalink using Windows media, RealPlayer, mp3 stream or direct link to mp3. My favorite place to listen is on my iTouch using iTunes, by subscribing to the free Trader Interviews podcast.

Enjoy and certainly let me know what you think!

Show notes: Chris Perruna is a part-time trader who holds positions from three to nine months at a time, looking for larger moves in stocks he chooses based on the CANSLIM method from Investor’s Business Daily. Here we talk about the three stock screens he uses each night, why he likes stocks that are about to bounce off their 200-day moving average and why he, even though he is a longer-term trader, will get out of a position the same day if the trade isn’t working out. Chris’ blog can be found at: ChrisPerruna.com.
