Help For Haiti

You can help the victims of countless crises, like the recent earthquake in Haiti, around the world each year by making a financial gift to the American Red Cross International Response Fund, which will provide immediate relief and long-term support through supplies, technical assistance and other support to help those in need. The American Red Cross honors donor intent.  Or, text "Haiti" to 90999 to make an immediate $10 donation.

"While relief efforts have begun, communications are extremely difficult and accurate information is still scarce," UNICEF Executive Director Ann M. Veneman said in a recent statement. "It is clear that the consequences are severe and many children are among the victims," she added. "Our hearts go out to the families whose lives have been so terribly impacted by this tragedy."

About "Activist" -- Don't let the word mislead you. Activism doesn't have to involve being opposed to something.  Investrend is a solutions company, not a problems company.  We invest energy in standing for, rather than spend energy on standing against.  To us, "activist investing" is only about what you do.  It's about you, accepting facts as they are, and controlling the only factor you can control: your actions... more

Accept responsibility -- Enough water has passed under the bridge by now.  We're well aware our financial system isn't what it was -- or what we believed it was.  Continuing to blame the system, to just wait for it to change, is to be a victim.  We can be warriors, instead.  We can apply ourselves, adapt and overcome... more

Who is being served?  --  This isn't rocket science.  Facts are what matter.  What's known matters.  Rhetoric and speculation are meaningless distractions.  Look for the plain, simple truth.  If the truth is available, it won't be hard to find.  If it's not available, move along.  Then, based on your found knowledge about a given situation or opportunity, ask yourself whose interests are being served, and make an informed decision... more

Who benefits?  -- Promotional campaigns, by nature, focus on short-term effects, and benefit short-term buying and selling. In virtually every case, the firm doing the promoting is either (a.) being paid in free-trading shares by the company being promoted (and is highly likely to cash-out when the stock peaks), or (b.) being unknowingly preyed-upon by a promotional entity that has taken a position in the company, and is planning to "pump-and-dump" the company's stock. Either way, those who benefit from such scenarios are the promoters, and the day traders who know how to identify and take advantage of such schemes... more

The way things are --  There are many, many ways to look at "the market", and what's involved. Trying to "figure it all out" is a waste of time. Instead, we urge you to simply look... or... look simply. Either way, it amounts to the same thing:  Just see. You have eyes, and you have intelligence. Trust yourself. See things for what they are... as you see them. You are the "expert"... more

A few things to consider -- (1.) There's a significant difference between a "trader" mentality and an "investor" mentality; (2.) Not all companies are "serious", "real" companies; and (3.) Some investor/public relations ("IR"/"PR") firms' sole objective is to make money for themselves -- leaving their "client" companies weakened, if not incapacitated... more
