The weekend is a great time to catch up on some of the reading you skipped during the week.* So for all you “time shifters (http://techcrunch.com/2011/02/04/ipad-shifts-reading/)” out there, here is another set of long-form links.* As always, feel free tell us what you think.
“Recognising that confidence in markets is a self-fulfilling prophesy that taps into some of our deepest mental processes is critical for longer-term, patient investors.”* (The Psy-Fi Blog (http://www.psyfitec.com/2011/03/market-confidence-tricks-and-placebos.html))
Paul Sullivan, “[a recent study] found that the value of investment advisers was not in the stocks or mutual funds they recommended but in their ability to restrain investors from impulsively trading at the wrong time.”
Graeme Wood, “At its core, the survey underlines the fact that money may ease some worries, but others always remain.”* (The Atlantic (http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2011/04/secret-fears-of-the-super-rich/8419/))
