Welcome, fellow investor! I am primarily a "long only" investor in equities/Exchange Traded Funds. My investment timeframe is 5–8 years – starting in 2020. I do make short term tactical trades. My investment strategy is in my pinned post. I use multiple research sources to select equities/ETFs using various hypotheses: about geo-political conditions, the relative performance of economic sectors and the unique post-COVID economic rebalancing. While I enjoy the "game" of trading I don’t forget that the point is to make money.... 💰 Suggested minimum copy $300 – click 'copy open trades'. ✔︎ Investment gains +50% on any one equity are sold and reinvested into a different open position to generate compound returns; (I do not sell the underlying equity completely only the net profit.) ✔︎ No crypto; ✔︎ No leverage; ✔︎ Risk score 4. ✔︎ Average dividend yield: 1.73%. I am an academic with an interest in economics, finance and political economy.
