The Intelligent Investor: Part I

July 7, 2014 By E.J. Smith

“To me, Ben Graham was far more than an author or a teacher”, writes Warren Buffett in the preface to the 1973 edition of The Intelligent Investor, “More than any other man except my father, he influenced my life.” In a remembrance of Graham (1894-1976) published in the Financial Analysts Journal, Buffett wrote, “A remarkable aspect of Ben’s dominance of his professional field was that he achieved it without that narrowness of mental activity that concentrates all effort on a single end.” I received my copy of The Intelligent Investor as a Christmas gift back in 1997 from Dick and Debbie … [Read more...]

The Best Table in Newport

July 4, 2014 By E.J. Smith

You’re in for a culinary treat at Thames Street Kitchen (TSK), especially if you sit at our favorite table—a huge-raised farm table—the table in the “farm to table” movement. The farm table literally feels like the place where the evening’s bounty is thoughtfully separated earlier in the day by chefs Chad Hoffer and Tyler Burnley. And while they’re in the kitchen creating masterpieces for you, there’s plenty of room for 8 or even better, a party of 10. The table is up high where you can take in the scene in the room and check out the action in the kitchen through the huge white paned … [Read more...]

Vanguard GNMA Up 40.6%

July 3, 2014 By E.J. Smith

You’ve been rewarded for sticking with Vanguard GNMA. Over the last 52-weeks it has returned 5 percent and through the first half of this year it is up 4.5 percent. A lot of investors sold their GNMA last year when the Fed began its taper talk. And at the beginning of this year the so called experts said bonds were dead—making it even harder for you to hang in there. I’m glad you did. Aren’t you? Still all the chatter is about stocks. This week the Dow and S&P 500 both had record closings. Tech is way overbought and bonds are being left for dead, again. But the prudent investor would … [Read more...]

Skimming: 3 Steps for Preventing Identity Theft

July 2, 2014 By E.J. Smith

You've probably heard about credit card skimming at gas stations and ATMs. My client told me how it happened to him twice while wintering in Florida this year. It’s as easy as one, two, three. Here’s how it works. First, the use of universal keys make gas pumps easy to access and therefore easy targets. Second, the identity thief installs an illegal scanner. When you insert your credit card at the pump your data is stolen and saved. And third, he can collect the data via wireless Bluetooth technology a couple of weeks or months later without even getting out of his car. The same technique … [Read more...]

16-Year Bear Market Ahead

July 1, 2014 By E.J. Smith

A 16-year bear market was what Dick Young faced back in 1965 as he began his brokerage industry journey at Clayton Securities in Boston. It’s hard to imagine a better time then and now to make dividend payers the cornerstone of your stock portfolio. Dick writes: My chart on the Dow portrays the up again/down again Dow track through the 1960s, '70s and early '80s. The Dow ended 1965 at 969 and closed 1981—16 years later—at 875. For what was half a retirement for many Americans, the Dow actually lost 9% of its value. It was a brutal stinker for investors retiring in 1965. How much of an annual … [Read more...]
