Quotes of the Day

I keep CNBC on all day. It keeps me informed on what the market is doing and what it has done but, unfortunately, not on what it will do. [2003] - Marcel Link

Statistically, flying is much safer than driving a car. You're approximately 110 times more likely to die in a motor vehicle than in a airplane. In North America, some 37,000 people die in automobile accidents each year (100 people, on average, die on the road every day). [2018] - Tony Martin

Waist-to-Height Ratio, or WHtR, is a better tool than BMI that we can use to gauge the health risks of body fat. Stand up straight and take a deep breath, exhale, and let it all hang out. The circumference of your belly (halfway between the top of your hip bones and the bottom of your rib cage) should be half your height--ideally, less. If that measurement is more than half your height, it's time to start eating healthier and exercising more regardless of your weight. [2015] - Michael Greger

A primary trend lasts the longest period of time, and its lifespan may range between eight months and two years. An intermediate trend could last from a month to as long as eight months. A short-term trend can last for a few days to as long as a month. Day traders are concerned with spotting and identifying short-term trends. [2007] - Grace Cheng

There are four ways to profit from real estate. The first is mortgage pay-down. You can rely on your real estate investments to reliably pay down your mortgage. As the mortgage is paid down, your equity goes up. Second is cash flow. Once all of your property expenses have been paid, the money remaining is your cash flow. Third is appreciation. We have incredibly strong historical proof showing that the real estate market rises gently over time. Fourth is forced appreciation. Properties that are renovated to a certain modern standard earn more income. This could be cosmetic and, therefore, lead to higher-quality tenants desiring the property, or it could be structural and, therefore, change the use of the property (from one suite to two, for example). [2017] - Calum Ross
