Topic: Decision Time!
Making investment decisions in the fast-changing global stock market isn't easy... an investment idea or thesis that makes perfect sense one week can be toxic the week after...
How can an investor be prepared?
What are the key components of a decision making system that can adapt to changing circumstances?
How can an investor form an opinion with so many moving market parts?
We will take a look at how David formulates his top down opinion and how that opinion is translated into bottom up decisions on a day to day basis in his Trend Following and Swing Trading portfolios. David believes that all investors should have a disciplined decision-making framework that is consistent and repeatable. David will share his decision inputs, screening routines and will show how he manages a new position from both a profit-seeking and risk management standpoint.
