Window Dressing Season… Again

by The Investment U Research Team

As we come to the close of the second quarter, many average investors are confounded by what seems to be a flurry of activity in some of the best performing stocks in the market.

Professionals know it as window dressing. It’s when professional fund managers stuff their funds with large portions of winning stocks so that their quarterly reporting looks like they own lots of winners.

And for many investors who don’t do their homework, that’s what they’re getting a majority of the time – window dressings of a variety of sorts.

Ahh, the games Wall Street plays.

Speaking of window dressing and games… Bernie Madoff found out today that it doesn’t matter whether you’re a senior citizen or not – when you defraud thousands out of billions there’s going to be a price.

Ultimately, no one is going to look out for your investments like you, and the more that you know about them – the better.

Ask questions, do your homework and know for yourself if any investment is right for you. That goes for any and every investment: regardless of who introduces you to it. Be it your friend, relative, hot web tip or even trusted Investment U…

The fact is that if you own an investment, it’s your responsibility to understand it. If you don’t, start studying – lest your entire portfolio be window dressing.
