WCI adds value by uncovering both long and short opportunities through in-depth original research. WCI is patient tax conscious investors and generally maintain portfolio positions for 24-36 months.

WCI was established in 1992. Its founding partners, Nelson Obus and Joshua Landes, held senior research and institutional equity positions at Lazard Freres & Co.

A. Long term investment considerations: 20%
in OIH ETF; 10% in GDX ETF and 10% in
GDXJ (Van Eck Jr Gold Mining) ETF . . .
If your grandparents were thoughtful
enough to provide you with funds to
become actively involved in the
trading/investing world, communicate
with them on a regular basis in order to
compare their point of view/insight with
other reliable sources . . . including
those reflected on Online School @

Be open/flexible, resourceful, and
pursue due diligence (research). Best of
luck.
