Merry Christmas: 2021

December 25, 2021 By Lowell Herr

Merry Christmas Sending Season Greetings to all ITA readers.  Let’s hope for and plan on a less stressful 2022, although it will be difficult to repeat the 2021 bull market.

Photo Enhancement: Where Condors Soar

November 7, 2021 By Lowell Herr

On a recent trip to Southern California, when traveling south on Route #101, the GPS recommended moving off #101 and taking a more mountainous road, Route #154.  Intuitively, this seemed like a false recommendation.  Why leave a four-lane highway for a winding two lane road.  Route #154 is actually shorter than if one remains on […]

If Only I Had Been Smart Enough …..

November 6, 2021 By hedgehunter

In my recent Rutherford Review Post I spent a little time describing some of the features of Fibonacci Technical Analysis. I mentioned that I don’t usually use this analysis for Investment purposes (other than, maybe, to help me set stop loss orders) but that I sometimes use it for other “trades”. For fun, since I […]

In a recent comment (https://itawealth.com/huygens-portfolio-review-4-october-2021/#comment-31289) an ITA member asked us for our thoughts on an article entitled  “8 Reasons Why I’m Not a Dividend Income Investor”. Before addressing these “8 Reasons” I first want to re-iterate the point that we make all the time on this site – no single system will perform better than […]

Working With New Gutenberg Editor

September 21, 2021 By Lowell Herr

“You don’t take a photograph, you make it.” – Ansel Adams By 2022 WordPress developers will no longer support the classic WordPress editor.

Walking Among Ponderosa Pine

September 1, 2021 By Lowell Herr

One of the most beautiful trees is the Ponderosa Pine.  These are found on east side of the Cascades and Serra Nevada mountains.  The reddish bark and the aroma on a hot summer day are delights to behold. Below is an example of a stand close to Camp Sherman, Oregon.  The top image is the […]
