Blog Notes

I just upgraded the blog and all of its software to WordPress 2.5.1. It should allow me to do more with the blog in terms of format flexibility and a few other things. It should improve the overall stability of the blog, as well as a few things that should make the blog harder to hack. Oh, I got my descriptive permalinks back. Yay! :)

If you notice anything going wrong, or if you have a suggestion for the blog, please let me know. I have tried to get clicking on the top banner to return to the front page, but I am afraid I can’t figure it out. On a positive note, I’ve never had a spam problem at my blog. Between Akismet and moderating all initial comments, I have been able to screen all spam. We’ll see how well that works in the future.

One more note: I get a lot of spammers that register for my blog from Russia and Poland. If you are based in Russia or Poland, and are a true reader of my blog, send me a note, because I am going to block certain domains from registering at my blog.

    David,

    I have been reading your site for the last couple months and appreciate very much your insights. I am a PCA teaching elder in VA. Blessings, Ed Bradley

Disclaimer


David Merkel is an investment professional, and like every investment professional, he makes mistakes. David encourages you to do your own independent "due diligence" on any idea that he talks about, because he could be wrong. Nothing written here, at RealMoney, Wall Street All-Stars, or anywhere else David may write is an invitation to buy or sell any particular security; at most, David is handing out educated guesses as to what the markets may do. David is fond of saying, "The markets always find a new way to make a fool out of you," and so he encourages caution in investing. Risk control wins the game in the long run, not bold moves. Even the best strategies of the past fail, sometimes spectacularly, when you least expect it. David is not immune to that, so please understand that any past success of his will be probably be followed by failures.


Also, though David runs Aleph Investments, LLC, this blog is not a part of that business. This blog exists to educate investors, and give something back. It is not intended as advertisement for Aleph Investments; David is not soliciting business through it. When David, or a client of David's has an interest in a security mentioned, full disclosure will be given, as has been past practice for all that David does on the web. Disclosure is the breakfast of champions.


Additionally, David may occasionally write about accounting, actuarial, insurance, and tax topics, but nothing written here, at RealMoney, or anywhere else is meant to be formal "advice" in those areas. Consult a reputable professional in those areas to get personal, tailored advice that meets the specialized needs that David can have no knowledge of.
