“I don’t pay much attention to macroeconomic trends. Like the weather, I just ignore the weather. I just try to invest whatever capital I have as best I can and take the results as they fall. I seize whatever opportunities I can and I hope I get my share.” https://t.co/G3tw8AnXSP

Guessing without accountability is fun!
