Note: as we announced recently, the 3s Report has a new name: the Weekly ROAR. Why bother?

Because 5 years into my “semi-retired life” as investment researcher, coach and writer, our audience has told us a lot about what they value most. And that’s what we are focusing on from here forward. What is that?

  • Risk Management

  • The ROAR Score

  • ETFs: using them to their potential

  • Building portfolios based on the realities of the 2020s, not the 1980s.

  • Helping DIY investors “do it themselves,” by transferring insights gained over decades in the trenches.

In this issue:

  • Macro: Outside of the slow drip that is the equity market, there are some early signs of rallies in other market segments. I name names.

  • ETFs: I unveil the new ETF Yourself Model Portfolio. It has something for everyone. Unless they are allergic to investing with ETFs.

  • Stocks: How difficult is it to find a stock I feel can be a high-probability winner over the next 3 years? Not impossible, but in that neighborhood. I explain why, including a summary of my latest soon-to-be published equity research.

  • Other timely stuff: Fintech is in its golden age. Not the stocks, as that ship has sailed. But I am working with a few emerging companies in that space, and the excitement and growth potential is palpable. I’ll continue to introduce our audience to what I learn, and how it might make them more productive and profitable in the years ahead. What a time to be a DIY investor!

Plus, my latest market thoughts and the latest update to the ROAR Score. Here’s this week’s Weekly ROAR!
