At the Towson University Investment Group’s International Market Summit, Part 1

Hello. ?My busy time is over, and I am back to live blogging. ?On Tuesday evening, I was one of five speakers at the?Towson University Investment Group’s International Market Summit. ?It was a fun time. ?Before I came, there was a list of 29 questions we could be asked, in addition to Q&A. ?As it was we were asked 6 of the questions in the main period, and 2 more in the Q&A.

I told the students at Towson that I would post a bunch of links to my blog for the questions asked that I have already answered. ?I will probably do a second post for the questions I am competent to answer that did not get asked.
