Blogging For Dollars
The Blogosphere provides a feast of investment Web sites - some of them are quite good while others may be only half-baked. Here, we've identified some of the most worthwhile investing blogs that you can find in our "Links" listing. And to make them easier to spot, I have set each one apart by placing an asterisk (*) at both ends of the respective names. Now here are a few words about some of them"
*Accounting Observer* - this is a respected research service aimed at serious investors. The author blogs about accounting topics in the news such as the financial restatements of Health South or the woes of public pension funds. The sophisticated analysis can be dense for casual readers, but is top-notch.
*The Asset Allocator* - Packed with links, charts, cartoons, and pithy comments about the markets and economy, this site is fun, newsy, and entertaining. The author doesn't offer much concrete investing advice, but his site does link to some of the best blogs.
*The Big Picture* - This author mixes technical analysis with macroeconomics to come up with some insightful calls on the direction of the stock market.
*Footnoted.org* - This author scours through SEC filings to find juicy items like relatives on a company's payroll, how often execs are using the company jet, and many otherwise hidden tidbits. You can search by company, plus there is a "cheat sheet" for interpreting filings.
*Free Money Finance* - This Blog offers an inspiring mix of timeless investing wisdom and money-making ideas.
*The Kirk Report* - Here is where an individual investor chronicles his stock trades from his living room in a small Minnesota town. He provides market and economic commentary as well as "Random Thoughts & Readings," packed with interesting links. Many Wall Street pros check out what he has to say.
*Random Roger* - This author writes a few posts a day about investing strategies, with emphasis on asset allocation, foreign stocks, exchange-traded funds, and options.
*The Wealthy Blogger* - Written by a two man team, who say they started this Blog to teach people how to get out of debt, plan their futures and eventually become millionaires. They also run stock contests and discuss ways to reduce debt.
So there in brief is a glimpse into some of the interesting WeBlogs that can be found with just a tiny effort. I hope that you can learn something of value by checking out several of these sites.
