Defend Your Capital, EuroSocialTradingTM
Update
22 April 2016
Equities trading above our benchmark Risk Price (SF) are those liked by investors, as two of three
continue to price rise due to investors’ preference. These equities we call “likeables.” They are
revealed by their rise above Risk Price, our metric that investors must know to defend their capital1.
Cash must be engaged in the economy in business ideas with valiant balance sheets or it loses
value. That is simple fact. For small savings it is needful but arbitrary you feed at the low price end
of "likeables" we find in balance sheets. Equities that tend to hold their value and gain are better
than cash. Risk Aversion, Capital Safety and Liquidity in ‘likeables’ we prove works for you.
The problem for us all is the legally pampered insurance banking and real estate industry is ring-
fenced from responsibility for their indiscriminate investment models, none of which they can show
actually work. Sitting on your mountains of cache you have hard saved by working, they are just
Bad Boys tossing coins, your coins, in their games with zero-sums. They add no value, as you do.
In North America I especially like the scabrous concept of the ‘Money For Life’, and ‘10 for 20’
schemes. You give them your money for 10 years and then they start giving it back at 5% per year
for 20 years – free money for them up to 30 years, as they pay no interest to you, at all, ever, and
you have all the risk they may even lose it all. Then also there is the company (that will not payout
to war veterans), with their toppling dominoes they allude, that for you giving them $45 a week,
they will make you a 75% per annum return2. That 75% p.a. gain, they have never done. While
there is truth in advertising, ‘all the blocks toppled – for a new Guinness record’ but, apparently not
in respect to the ‘insurance as investment’ schemes those advertisements promote you buy.
Then, there is the delusion that just pops-up like a bad mannered whack-a-mole in the business
gossip advisors smart-talk for small investors to swallow, you are just trying to save and earn an
income, at very least be not eaten by inflation, the delusion of Exchange Traded Funds, ETFs, like
Vanguard, the third largest in the US. If you invested with them at their start in June 2001 you will
have lost all of inflation for 15 years -34% and still have another -13% less than you started for a
net 51.42% loss. Just 48.58 cents remains in today’s purchasing power parity dollars for every
dollar they had invested in another ‘non-country for old men’ at Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF
(VTI). In VTI's conjecture they trusted Karl Bogel and now should weep for the $412.57 bn they
lost to someone, as this is what remains (yeah VTI did not start with $802.35 bn but Just So Stories
are like that, as are the If Only I Had stories, the Artful Dodgers and Muddled Fools stories).
Our Euro-cousins (and there are a lot of them, just in my family, introducing my children to over a
hundred and twenty of their cousins at one dinner), have the disadvantage they do not have tax
charity in the form of self-directed stock trading possible in their personal retirement savings as in
North America. In Europe you are constrained into feeding insurance companies or banks your
savings for their mis-management investing. That is good for the insurance industry and bankers,
but as we know that is a dark pool of sharks biting on your wallet leaving you their scraps after the
"there is risk in what you do not or cannot know." Thomas Tooke, 1844
"for the value of money is also perishable." Jean-Baptiste Say , 1803

quaterpilot fish are done. Those handlers fingers are every bit as ‘sticky fingers’ problem-makers as
inundates the North American pensions industry. Up to 50% of the interest earned is missing3 in
those private pension plans run by the FIRE industry. Oops! In Europe you better save a lot to get a
durable retirement better than state minimums in your control. In one insurance industry scheme
apparently your children cannot even inherit the principal or gains when you pass-on. People do
sign such deals, like annuities, uhhhah. Those sharks, remora and morays like your wallet.
For our euro-social cousins we feel the need to give them our small investor leg-up running their
own money for themselves for income or building wealth they can share with their children. Since
we claim our Risk Price driven ‘likeables’ investment model holds for any market (ruled by law
more than by corruption), we thought our many curious European cousins following our portfolios
should have one of our portfolios for them too, as we prove it. WE will use the same basis, of a
modest savings pool, of €25 000 you might have to roll-over from such a programme as has built-
up after 20 years in the German, bank run, tax free saving plan Vermögenswirksameleistung a VL
for short. Because, we do, you can.
The paid by the word business model pundits wrote lots, like arm-chair quarterbacks. The gossips
never knew and never do. We have a guidepost, Risk Price (SF), we know where we are and, when
and where to go. Know What You Have. Have What You Know.
Quantitative Eating was an unusual time. Most everyone has forgotten the DJI was at 12966
03dec2012. That rate is not likely to be repeated even if Draghi uses QE. Conventional bleating of
the ‘dollar-per-word” industry called 2014 too volatile and 2015 too lame, to make money, for you.
With our “likeables” you can save your own bacon. You have proof. Make your own piggy-bank.
What proof does convention offer? Yup, that is an oxymoron. Convention is flat-landers in a global
reality. Fund managers are just used equities traders who know little more than pretense, for
unworthy fee-taking so that none is ever left for you. Do not give those Artful Dodgers your wallet.
Financial industry advisors are schooled sellers of financial products to
exploit small investor savings for their taking fees. They are not
changing their tools or sharpening those they have. They took the
“regular courses” required by a self-regulated industry driven only by
their creative sales fiction. Seemingly, certification requires intensive
study in the key tools of Rhetoric - Adumbration, Subterfuge,
Mystification and Derogation. Humm, that sounds familiar.
“I only took the regular courses,” sighed the Mock Turtle.
“What was that?” inquired Alice. “Reeling and Writhing, of course, to
begin with, and then the different branches of Arithmetic – Ambition,
Distraction, Uglification, and Derision.”
The larger your “likeables” portfolio will tend to average 26% per annum Internal Rate of Return as

obtain that, and more, even in parlous markets4. See our articles StockTakers’ 2012Q1 bite on
DJI5. and The Counter Culture: Case for a Can Opener6
. Our work stands on giants, insights of
three very different laureates, and on evidence as our “likeables” behaviour proves in real markets.
On gossip hem and haw the markets continue to bounce and yaw with all the boats. The managers
of pensions, insurance and other equity pools trade in near 90% of equities market, but they do not
know which way that flat-world view of theirs turns. But churning your money works for their
salaries, just not your income. Quantitative Eating as ‘treacle-down’ just capitalizes sticky fingers
gaming markets, not consumers ‘getting-on-with-their-lives’ saving for an income earned.
Our public portfolios do better because we can with our new theory of the firm. We seek accredited
investors to advance what we have proven. We show proof in our methods, in real time portfolios.
Accredited investors can buy our 12% bond7 and rest on easy income as we do the work.
StockTakers public TaxCharityTM portfolios are proof, you can see, with your money in your own
control. Extending our proprietary information as charity suiting small savers’ needs allows you
invest and build your own wealth, in your control. TaxCharit€TM
allows you invest for Euro
retirement income or maintain liquidity for bumps in life’s roads. Because we can … you can.

Draghi’s invocation of ECB’s Quantitative Eating combined with oil and gas bloat has made
possible unusual volatility in the Euro-markets. To that adjustment market mavericks without
direction triggered many stoplosses again in this month, a trope of managers who cannot figure out
where they are, as in September November and December. Fundamentals of consumer spending,
cars and house prices all rose while the financial industry managers threw your savings on the dice
floor. We can buy back “likeables” at lower prices and recover in a form of modest short-selling,
but of the many ‘zoomers’ sharply rebounding we choose not to chase them. That high bounce also
indicates to us that it is time to lessen out stoploss measure.
Balance sheets did not flip-flop, but portfolio managers did, unrelated to ‘fundamentals’ of value
investing8. Our tighter $toploss values reduce risk of loss. All of the stocks in our public
portfolios9 simply rebounded. Most, can still be bought back for less than they stopped out. Take
the bonus and buy those back. Skimming for advantageous collaring options to protect your capital
takes time, instead of working at your job you know you do best. Collaring of options can be very
useful in added gains but it requires a lot more attention than small investors can lavish.
Stoploss is a simpler approach suiting the small investor accepting our charity. It is now time to
loosen the easily managed $toploss values to recover, but again we must rebuild for hopeful gain

as calmer markets will soon return. Price has no mass - gossip fluctuates and gyrates like a dervish,
gravity less so mass, it is a force, but we know more about it, than the ecstasy of an expectant price
whirling in the business gossip pages.
The reality that ‘treacle-down’ never worked is roosting, as much as, austerity is impoverishing in
hard times when innovation and productivity are needed to ‘credit float’ warranted investment in
valiant business processes and enterprises in the real economy. The austerity FSB sees as
necessary is restraint of retail bank reserves, as it limits imprudence by moral hazard of bankers.
But reduces the amount of available ‘credit float’ for real economy enterprises creating worth and
wealth in their business process, making ‘money’ to put in all our pockets, allocate as we wish, or
save in ‘likeables’ equities hopeful of gaining better income than your labour alone provides.
Engage in “likeables” save your own bacon.
The conventional investment industry cannot prove any of their assumptions underlying their
methods. As we have shown, luck is all that they can trade in. At their best 1.03 to 1 is just a coin-
toss, not adding value, which does not cover their fees and expenses adding to the certain erosion of
your capital by inflation the government needs and uses10 to transfer wealth from all to few. Avoid
those Artful Dodgers playing dice with your wallet. They cannot tell of a fair price or value.
Nonsense told often enough can even become politically correct, even legally required by the self-
regulated, for the self-regulated, making for good ‘Just So’ stories11 but bad policy.
It is the behaviour of the market respecting the Risk Price of any firm that allows our ‘likeables’ to
be so powerful a tool for investing. Risk Price provides us with assurance of identifying those firms
that tend to gain in value. Shows us they work at it with their trading connections to obtain valiant
success. They become the most sought after firms in the market. In limited supply, market demand
tends to bid them up and for long periods 2 of 3 remain ‘overpriced’ often for years.
StockTakers is in the business of taking the anxious bets of the financial industry (they never know
where they are as they have no direction12
). Knowing Risk Price allows us to choose and decide,
making such surreal gains off their ‘bets’ because they are ill prepared. Their fortune only comes
with luck, like a coin-toss. This is about the financial industry that does not know how to deliver.
We do deliver as these publicly run TaxCharityTM portfolios show. We do, because we can.
Equities that tend to hold their value and gain are better than cash. We like Capital Safety and
Liquidity because we have proven our risk aversion works, consistently obtaining both low risk
and AlphaSmartTM high gain. Our Risk Price is what investors must know to defend their capital.
Market behaviour prefers the “likeables” trading them above Risk Price and bids up their price.
Our method is proven. Because we can, you can13
.
In our Modal Geometry14
theory of the firm we make only two assumptions, clearly as follows:

“
Update
22 April 2016
1. there is a balance sheet of the firm (that the rule of law governs its information is possibly
weak assumption but at an accuracy to at least the modest degree accountants are prepared
to be responsible for); and,
2. the firm will vigorously negotiate, “what it owns” (in order to stay in business “what is
owed to it” with “what it owes” and vice versa, to make the best of what it has, that is in its
trading connections).
The Modal Geometry theory of the firm has unfolded by rigourous observation of corporate ledgers
relation to balance sheets as business process15
adds value. That is aided with logic, epistemology,
and some powerful mathematics. You have proof in these TaxCharityTM portfolios performances.
Our reasons for having any equity in our portfolios are clear, concise and consistent. “likeables”
tendency demonstrates 2 of 3 gaining for the long term. This we show proof positive, in our
TaxCharityTM and BookBuilderTM portfolios continued gain.
Know What You Have. Have What You Know.
Our view is risk averse. Of course we require fees for doing that. Mail us for our help.
