Join me on Facebook and Twitter for 24/7 investment snippets

Posted By Prieur du Plessis On August 22, 2011 @ 9:20 am In Investment,Markets,Money | No Comments


As mentioned previously, I have started posting quite regularly on Facebook [1] and Twitter [2]– anything from five to 15 messages a day. The items are always concerned with topical economic and financial market issues, web links and graphs, and rarely about useless personal stuff.

The social media sites fill a very important communication gap as short snippets often don’t warrant blog posts, but are nevertheless important for investment decision-making. Whenever possible, I also attempt to link the messages to specific exchange-traded funds (ETFs) by including ticker symbols. Interestingly, people seem to comment more readily by means of a sentence or two and this should also be of interest to the rest of my Facebook [1] friends and Twitter [2]followers.

For those Investment Postcards [3] readers not doing so already, consider joining me as a friend on Facebook [1] – link [1] . You can follow my “tweets” on Twitter [2] by clicking here [2].
