Last Weeks Speaker- Michael Dee
Last week we once again had Michael Dee speak at our meeting. Last year Michael gave us a most impressive presentation about Superpowers USA v China.
Last week Michael spoke on the topic "The Basis of Investing". Founder and CEO of Harvesting Funds Management, a Australian Specialist who is a Funds Manager in direct listed (and unlisted) investments spoke about the markets, their fluctuation over the years and the best time to buy and sell. Michael was most interesting and informative and we would like to thank him very much for speaking at our meeting. |
