Investment Report
May 2010
As Warren Buffett explains, "You do things when the opportunities come along. I've had periods in my life when I've had a bundle of ideas come along, and I've had long dry spells. If I get an idea next week, I'll do something. If not, I won't do a damn thing. "
May is the month when venture-backed equities is a good idea. April confirmed the rally status for Asian venture-backed equities, although it is clear that other asset classes fraught with uncertainties, which have in fact intensified with the added concerns over the fall-out from Europe. Eventually, quality will tell.
