Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: "It is better to teach a man how to catch fish than to give him one"...
In this train of thought, I was thinking about this question from a long time ago coming from a teacher in BC about recommending financial books. Over the years I read about 50 or 60 books on investing, finance and personal financial wealth. One book will remain because it is at the beginning of all things within the capitalistic system: "The web of debt" by Ellen Hodgson.
But there is more and today more and more courses about finance are available for free on the internet: Let me give you two sites that I have used: COURSERA and KHAN ACADEMY (6 million users, 4500 new videos on line each MONTH).
And finally for the french speaking out there (any?) the French version of some of the Khan courses will be available on the internet site of Bibliothèque sans frontières starting with mathematics as of september 4th.
As usual,if you think it is worth to publish, please do so.

Q: Hi, My question is about Gibson Energy,technicly speaking, looking at a 1 yr chart, it has completed a head and shoulders pattern and is continuing to decline. Fundamentaly, it had an OK 1/4, and seems to have a promising future, but I am now down about 10%. Should I hold and persevere,sell, and try to buy back cheaper over the next couple months, sell and add to my ALA,PPL, and CXS on further pull backs. Thanks for your help.

Q: Hello 5i,

What are your thoughts on the cloud computing sector? After IBM recently bought softlayer - Do you foresee more takeovers in the near future?

As a side note it would be helpful on the website to have a search function that isn't restricted to a stock symbol only.
