Today’s IFOD was a direct link to an article I wrote about a “one-stock challenge” I took part in recently.  My pick was a random stock ticker produced by a random stock generator on the world wide web.  It was a pretty interesting exercise.  Here’s that article:  One Stock Challenge

Here are links to other recent articles I’ve written on various investment matters recently:
