About the categories:
  • Bull plays: I think these are more likely to rise than fall.
  • Bear plays: I think these are more likely to fall than rise.
  • Diversification plays: These don’t closely track the U.S. markets or are based on currencies other than the U.S. dollar.
  • Wounded birds: Stocks I find fascinating but they each have an apparently fatal flaw.
  • Zombies: These are failed leftovers from what seemed to be good ideas at the time. They stalk the Watchlist like zombies, tying up resources and frightening small children.



Table Abbreviations:
  • pfe - Location of the polarized fractal efficiency line.
