Why Shareholders Should Fear the Hasty Corporate Marriage / InvestorEducation / Learning to Invest
By: Don_Miller
I never understood why Sears bought Kmart. Sears was a giant retailer, the dominant tenant in shopping malls throughout the US. Kmart was the spawn of S. S. Kresge’s dime stores.

I don’t see either surviving much longer.

How You Can Play to Win When Market Makers Are Calling the Shots / InvestorEducation / Learning to Invest
By: Don_Miller
The American Legion sponsored a carnival every summer when I was a young lad. My dad was a legionnaire, so each year I had a job. Beginning at age 12, I hauled soft drinks and food to the various concession booths well into the night, which probably violated some labor laws.

Stocks Portfolio Correlation Based Diversification / InvestorEducation / Learning to Invest
By: Don_Miller
A Guy Leans on a Lamppost… and You Make a Buck
To paraphrase Scottish novelist Andrew Lang, some people use statistics like a drunk uses lampposts—for support rather than illumination. Numbers can be twisted and abused to support false claims, and even correct data is sometimes misinterpreted.
