A Canadian on Wall Street

This is, simply, an investment and business blog written by a Canadian, with interests in both the Canadian and American markets. An antidote both to technical trading and other faux-empirical systems and fundamental trading — value being arbitrarily defined. I read trading blogs occasionally as a view into another, alien world that I have never fully grasped or understood the logic of.

You might be wondering, why “A Canadian on Wall Street” when Canada’s main financial district is at Toronto’s Bay Street? Well, since I’m a bit of an outsider in the mainstream financial world represented by “Wall Street”, and a participant of American markets from afar, I felt it was a succinct way of expressing that. It seems to confuse a lot of people, but I’ve grown to like it so it stays.

As far as disclosure is concerned, if I don’t explicitly state my position on a security, usually at the end of an entry, you can infer that I don’t have a position in it. Like most people who invest regularly in securities, I’m cagey about my own portfolio while gleefully interested in determining the contents of yours, so I imagine it will not be too often when I’ll need to disclose a position. This industry’s all about information.
