Sheldon Feinstein

Biography

I am a 50+ year old scientist doing biomedical research in an academic institution. I have been investing as a hobby since about 1980, dabbling in stocks, options, metals and futures trading. Most of my real money is in mutual funds as part of retirement accounts.

Strategy

The dollar is debased and worth less each day. Therefore, I look for resource stocks, especially undervalued ones and foreign stocks as many of the best opportunities lie outside the U.S. I normally avoid high P/E ratios.
