In life I have sought to find what I call "Virtues." When I talk about Virtues, what I mean is principles which have positive value regardless of the circumstances. Two that I have settled on are Discipline and Patience. Perhaps I'll discuss that some other time. Regardless, at one point, I was contemplating adding Balance to the list. I bounced this off of a very good friend of mine, who happens, incidentally, to have one of the best minds for markets and finance that I know. His response? "Balance is all well and good, but if you're not careful it can lead to another 'B' word... 'Boring.'"
And it is with that little story that I introduce the newest writer to INCITE, calling himself "Speculator." The name is fitting. Trust me. Suffice it to say, he'll be bringing absolutely zero balance to the table.
