Recommended Reading -- #7

Here are four articles related to investing that I found most interesting, helpful, and/or thought-provoking during the past week that I want to share with you:

  1.  Five Superpowers -- It's always helpful to think about how we can improve ourselves that will also aid us in our investing decision-making.
  2.  Schwab's April Market Snapshot -- Good insights on where we are in the stock market right now.
  3.  The Growth-Value Cycle -- Will the outperformance of Growth stocks over Value stocks continue, or is it Value's time to shine?  And how should we think about constructing our portfolios with this in mind?
  4.  Revisiting Covered Calls and Protective Puts -- A recent (2021) academic study confirming the outperformance of Covered Calls versus a Buy-and-Hold strategy.  In addition, I especially like the way he helps us with strike price selection based on our personal risk tolerance -- see his discussion of loss aversion on page 5 and its implications as presented in Exhibit 5.            . 

 

Best Wishes and Godspeed,
