Weekend Reading for January 16, 2010

What I’m reading this weekend:

  • Why Many Investors Keep Fooling Themselves : WSJ – It’s interesting most people don’t know what the average rate of returns for stocks, and expect outlandish returns.
  • ‘Nobody’s Watching Charlie Rose’ : WSJ – Love or hate him (is there anything in between?), I find Glenn Beck’s arguments always very logical, even if they go into the conspiracy camp.  I don’t believe or agree with everything he says but always like counterpoints to the traditional views.  I also like watching Charlie Rose, but found this interesting video Charile discusses Obama with Tom Brokaw.  I found this in the comments section.  If this isn’t a testament on how clueless our MSM is, I don’t know what is.
  • Groomed for a Comeback : Barron’s – I thought Dogs of the Dog was dead and proven another crap investing idea? I guess there are drones who still believe in it.
  • Inflation Remains Tame, With a Warning Sign : WSJ – Last year, up there as one of the worst years economically and yet our inflation was 2.7%? Inflation Tame? Right now yes.  Where is this deflation people keep talking about?
  • A Little Company Praised by President Obama : Stossel – Articles like this just completely piss me off!  How is this not crony capitalism?  For those who get Fox Business News John Stossel has some great shows.
  • For ‘Safe’ Investors, This May Be a Challenging Year : CNBC -Must think about interest rate risk.
