Disclaimer

 I’m writing this blog to help organize my thoughts about investing in stocks and options, as well as in the hope of getting constructive criticism and advice about my views from readers.  Although I have been successful in general, my experiences have taught me that investing in stocks is often a humbling experience.  Even the most seasoned investors will make serious mistakes from time to time.  The most meticulously crafted research can be factually incorrect or incomplete, resulting in faulty investment conclusions.  Even if research is perfect, it is often difficult to assess whether the conclusions are new and potentially valuable, or are already well-known and factored into prevailing stock prices.  The cliche that the markets tend to make the greatest fools out of the largest number of people sums up the situation neatly.

I have no experience as a professional securities analyst or portfolio manager.  You should not use these opinions as the basis for your investment decisions.  Before making any investment decision, you must conduct a thorough personal financial analysis to determine what investments may be suitable for you.  This analysis should include, at the minimum, an assessment of your total financial circumstances, investment goals, tolerance for risk (especially for the possibility of loss), and the time, effort, and skill you are able and willing to bring to the investment process.  You must also decide whether you have the skills to perform this analysis, or whether you should seek the help of a financial planner or another professional who specializes in this endeavor.

For the reasons set forth above, you should understand that I am not making any representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy, completeness, or correctness of my research.  I am making no guarantee or promise about any results that may be obtained by the use of my research or opinions.  Nor should anything I write be taken as a recommendation that any security, portfolio of securities, or investment strategy is suitable for the reader or for anyone you may share this information with.

This same disclaimer applies to any tax, legal, or insurance matter that one may interpret as advice.  I cannot emphasize strongly enough that you must consult a qualified tax professional, attorney, or insurance advisor concerning such matters.
