The Curious Investor

It seems that everyone in the blogosphere is abuzz with tips on how to play the current market and, given how volatile the current “repricing of risk” has been, it can never hurt to be up to date on new ideas for your portfolio. As I’ll likely provide my own thoughts on the subject in this Friday’s week in review, I thought I’d like to highlight some particularly strong posts that I’ve come across this week related to the subject of guarding your portfolio in the current market.

• For a great analysis of the implications of the credit crunch and why it is troublesome check out ZachStocks.
• Prieur Du Plessis, a money manager in Cape Town, does a great breakdown of asset classes that you can use to insulate yourself from jittery markets.
• For those still trading, TheFreshTrader offers several interesting posts: one on risk management and an analysis of major indicators and where the stock market goes from here.
• The Deipnosophist, David Gordon, has a rather good post (borrowed from a market newsletter) on the current subprime worries and its implications. Further, he expounds on his feelings on disciplined investing and how to ride out jittery markets.
