I liked the results of the profits in the markets.

I don't have a ticker-tape machine in my office.

Be aware of the level of the stock market. Are yields low and PE ratios high?

Have patience. Stocks don't go up immediately.

You never really know a stock until you own it.

Devise a simple strategy so you can sleep at night.

Stockbrokers aren't too interested in a stock you can sit there for five years with.
