 There is no attempt to promote any specific investment or to “pick a winner” within The Owl. Rather, the focus is on various segments of the investment universe and their inter-relationship.

In addition to economic data, the case is made that statistically based technical analysis can be more beneficial than brokerage sales promotions.

 The site might sometimes appear brutally blunt, even combative. That is intentional. Mythology and pandering are left for Wall Street functionaries.

 The OWL is meant to provide a seasoned second opinion. It is hoped that 30 years of experience trading a wide variety of instruments for major financial institutions will allow for added value in a daily discussion of the marketplace. A goal is to raise the reader’s comfort level and understanding.
