The Barnacle is a quantitative analyst and has been in and out of the investing business since 2003. He is a former member of Marketocracy’s M100 Club. He has a degree in mathematics and believes that mathematics is the root of all success. If the numbers tell one to do something, then do it. When one reads his posts, one will realize that. Consequently, he does not put much stock in sell-side analysis, since most of it is pretty bad. he will share posts about value stocks that still have growth potential. This is not limited to large caps, but will also include midcaps, small caps, international stocks, gold miners, and REITs. Recently, his focus has been on ETF strategies that could potentially outperform the market’s overall return or provide better risk protection. He no longer focuses on individual stocks.
