Structured Products are the future

Seriously sensible on speculation.

Plain Vanilla is about making good investing decisions with little risk and minimal fuss. None of my strategies are in vogue, but they do make me money. The constituents of my Plain Vanilla¹ Portfolio (PVP) will be largely stocks, bonds and funds. Why? I understand them and it’s my money!

Some do’s and don’ts - I do: stock screen; use fundamental analysis heavily; use technical analysis occasionally; and use mental stop-losses.

I don’t: Believe in strong form market efficiency, at all.

Over the coming months this approach will be become clearer and, when the time is right, I will launch the PVP².

I’m an analyst enjoying a burgeoning career in investment. Here are some of my credits, I…

• analysed conservatively on a proprietary trading floor
• inspected income statements with a UK stock newswire
• broke news with CNBC Europe
• picked stocks in my investment club for kids

I’m an award-winning stock picker with a balanced fundamental / technical outlook on the market. While not a perma-bull, I am an optimist and I chair the unofficial John Authers fan club.

I regularly freelance, writing equity research projects. If you’d like a quote or are interested in my product coverage, drop me a note.

1. I use the term loosely, I know.
2. Again, this will be when I am comfortable putting my money into the market.
