Stock picking

Don't do it!

I keep a relic as a souvenir of days gone by: my first stock, Coca Cola Canada, purchased February 25, 1988.

The certificate hangs around as a reminder of how investing used to be done, one company at a time, one hunch at a time. The evidence points somewhere better. If you want the long version of why I don't pick stocks for clients, it's on the investment philosophy page.
