Solas! Republishing Introduction.

Solas!

Hello and Welcome!

I thought since I am restarting this that I ought to restate the rules that I set out when I started.

As stated way back when this is an experiment and Solas! so far seems to me to be the best opportunity to focus on what I want to write in a time efficient and hopefully interesting manner. However, please keep in mind that so far this is a hit or miss experiment. I don't yet know if this is going to work, how it's going to look or even if I am going to be satisfied with the end product. As a work in progress, especially at its inception, this may be a hit or miss endeavor. I don't know how and may never have time to do many of the things that make this look pretty or more professional. Nor am I going to take time away from my business to become an expert blogger. I do over time hope to make this better. I welcome your comments and suggestions.

What this is:

A learning experience.
A way for me on occasion to make a point.
A way for me on occasion to discuss markets and investing.
A place for me on occasion to discuss the vagaries of life and perhaps editorialize.
A place to discuss the investment process.

What this is not:

A forum to tout any form of individual investments. (Particularly individual stocks).
A place for me to give individual investment advice. (Call me or others for this).
A theatre for me to tell you how wonderful I am.
An environment for me to make stock valuation predictions. i.e. "XYZ is worth 50 dollars!"
And anything else that I might think of going forward.

One other thing. Where I discuss any individual security I will disclose whether I or clients currently own that stock or ETF. That disclosure is only valid for the day of the post as investments can change at any time.

Well with the introduction out of the way, let's begin.

Looking forward to hearing back from you soon.

Chris
