Watching lizards, you know they are very impulsive and not real bright. This is why they are so easy to catch and a favorite food of cats.
As many know, our frontal cortex is responsible for logical analytical thinking, and the rest of our brain is impulsive; the Lizard Brain.
We rarely use our frontal cortex region, and if you are thirty-five years old or older, you are inherently using your logical cortex, less and less with passing years.
Most of the time, your Lizard Brain is in control leading to impulsive behavior which is developed by repeating learned behavior, for better or worse. We continue with behavior which worked previously. However, that behavior may backfire next go around.
Here is an example.
Princeton performed a study which offered students twenty dollars right now or twenty-five dollars in one week. A majority, large majority, took the twenty dollars, right now. That is Lizard Brain thinking; irrational impulsive behavior.
Your Lizard Brain is what leads you to repeated losses in the stock markets; you go for the quick returns and do not think ahead.
I've a new book for you, the reader, which you should buy and read without fail.

Did you watch Dubya dancing over in Georgia?
Laura immediately took his arm and led him off the dance floor!
I thought there might be a run on CNR with the Bushies dropping by Georgia to piss off the Ruskies. Looks the run came and went a day or two before Dubya did a Texas Two Step to traditional Caucasus music centuries ancient. I believe he confused a chonguri with a guitar.

Yep.....'dya see that experienced cheer leader bouncin those hips! And the Texas House just passed a bill outlawing "dirty cheer leading". What kind of example is that for the kids back home?

CNR, formerly GUSH, operates in the Republic of Georgia. A year back, or so, many investors were worried about political instability not knowing which way political winds would blow in Georgia.
Since then, democratic leanings have emerged. This visit by Bush, the words spoken, confirm Georgia is "west friendly" which alleviates some concerns about the "state" taking over oil operations.
There was a good run on CNR for a couple of days before his visit, with investors knowing his planned schedule. However, recent bad corporate news from CNR, appears to overshadow this good political news, resulting from the Bush visit.
That is an example of logical thinking, classic "connecting the dots" to benefit. Remember the "Fly Me To The Moon" bandwagon created by Bush when he falsely promised more government funds for space research? Although he lied, naive people, naive investors, started buying space related stocks running up share value greatly.
Some of us "connected the dots" and made good profits from Lizard Heads who acted impulsively and ended up meals for smart cats.
Same principle with his visit to Georgia; he is forming stronger ties to Georgia which adds more "safety" for American companies over there, thus stock value will increase.
Do you better understand my words, now?
You boys really should buy Burnham's book and study it well. His approach to the stock markets is one of careful analytical thinking, rather than trend thinking or "fad" thinking.
Those who do really well at investing do so because they use a system, use good analytical tools, use good logical thinking, and avoid emotionalism.
Burnham writes of how to "think" to enhance your abilities to profit from the markets. His book is very different from typical investment books.
Buy and read his book. You will earn the purchase price a thousand times over using what you learn.
