		<description><![CDATA[Talibi’s books “The Black Swan” and “Fooled by Randomness” argue,  reasonably convincingly, that extreme events are under priced in the  current market due to a lack of experience and the over reliance on  mathematical models in trading.
To take advantage of this they advocate a “dumbbell strategy” which  basically is that 80% of assets are kept in the safest types of stocks,  blue chip corporate bonds or government gilts which slowly bear  interest.  The other 20% of assets should be kept in stocks that will ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you’re thinking about shorting the market either through contracts  for difference or financial  spread betting it must seem quite tempting now.  The market is  having a bad January so far.  But the question is whether it will keep  falling.
As always we can give one answer with total certainty: We don’t know.   All that follows are guesses.

		<description><![CDATA[As human beings we are blessed (or otherwise) with not knowing when  we will die.  This means that we are not quite sure where we are in our  physical lifecycle.  However we actually have a pretty good idea of  where we are in our investment lifecycle.
The investment lifecycle is simply where you are in your life and  what your investment should be doing for you at that time. It also helps  to decide what your priorities are when it comes to risk and return,  ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the worst things about trading in the Christmas period is the  volatility.  One of the best things about trading in the Christmas  period is the volatility.
The Christmas period, which lasts from the third week of December to  the second week of January is a notably frisky period for just about any  trading, and financial spread betting – which is more exposed to  volatility than ordinary trading – is even more exposed to this.
