There is no formula for picking stocks, but there are some techniques that we successfully employed in our stock picking. When I bought and sold stocks I would listen to my intuitive voice; I learned not to question it. I didn’t second guess myself. Whether I was right or wrong, I didn’t engage in woulda coulda shoulda. I was right because I had learned to trust my intuition which was based on years of study and information. I firmly believe that successful common stock investing starts with bonds, and progresses to their cousin, preferred stocks. When you understand the link between bonds and preferred stocks, you are ready to learn the path to successful common stock investing. This book will take you down that path.
