Despite Screaming Gold & Silver – Tech Plays Take Top 6 Volume Spots on TSX Venture

Posted by AGORACOM at 3:49 PM on Tuesday, April 19th, 2011

The day isn’t over just yet but unless something big happens in the next 20 minutes, this is the way things are going to shake out.  You need to get through 6 companies before finding your first hard rock company on the TSX Venture volume list.

I, for one, am happy to see this.  I am big time bullish on junior resources companies going forward … but it’s nice to see we don’t have a one-trick pony.

George

If you are serious about investing, then you should be serious about your ongoing education.  No doubt most of you have heard about Credit Default Swaps (CDS) and the role they played in the current financial crisis – but how many of you actually understand them?

I’ve posted information here in the past but the following presentation by Goldman Sachs is the most thorough resource we have found yet.  Enjoy.
