Ep. 709: Paul Britton Interview with Michael Covel on Trend Following Radio Nov 09, 2018

Show notes

My guest today is Paul Britton, a portfolio manager at Apollo Systems Research Corporation. In high school Paul's dad put him into a stock that went from $5 to $60. He took his profit and put money into a couple more stocks that turned out to be winners as well. These lucky trades peaked his interest in markets. Shortly after making these initial trades, Paul's dad also gave him a copy of "Reminiscences of a Stock Operator." He started working and looking at data trying to see if he could get a system of his own to work. He quickly learned that you can play around with entry and exit points, markets, etc., but as long as you pick up on the big trends and ride them until they lose–that was the #1 way to make money.

The topic is Trend Following.

In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss:

Momentum bias
Let your winners run
Fundamental trading
Diversification
Global macro trading
Compounding
Supply and demand

Ep. 701: Jeffrey Gitomer Interview with Michael Covel on Trend Following Radio Oct 12, 2018

Show notes

My guest today is Jeffrey Gitomer, an author, professional speaker, and business trainer, who writes and lectures internationally on sales, customer loyalty, and personal development. He is best known for "The Little Red Book of Selling" and his newest book, coming out at the end of October, is "Truthful Living: The First Writings of Napoleon Hill." Jeffrey was introduced to the Napolean Hill Foundation about 10 years ago and volunteered to start writing for their newsletter with an article every Friday. Napoleon Hill was the founding father of positive attitudes. In 1917 he had a course in advertising and selling. At the end of every course he would lay out positive thinking. When the Napolean Hill Foundation found these writings, what they call "After the Lesson Visits by Napolean Hill," the foundation approach Jeffrey about writing a book outlining his teachings. Jeffrey did not hesitate to say yes – and after years of pining over these lecture notes, his newest book was formed.

The topic is his book The Little Red Book of Selling: 12.5 Principles of Sales Greatness.
