More poor research

As you may know, I get to see a lot of financial research. Sometimes there are brilliant gems worth every moment or penny spent on the research. Then there is the vast majority of research- garbage.  Research is too often just a sales pitch to buy stocks or mutual funds. Show what seems to be a scientific look at why stocks should go up (or down) and you have the makings of a convincing sales piece. If you can make your point in just one powerpoint slide or page, it is even more impactful.
