Happy blogiversary!

Today marks one year since I first put fingers to keyboard and began writing the blog. Thank you to all of you who read the blog with gusto.

While there have been many exciting, informative and prescient posts on the blog – including calling the market bottom back on March 12th – this is not what I consider to be the blog’s first year highlight.

Nope, instead my usage statistics suggest that about 30% of you spend more than an hour a week on the blog (!). This is truly stunning, and for me the highlight of OUR first year. Even though I am the writer behind the blog, I say “our” because without all of you there would be no point to me publishing the blog. Thank you for your interest in my humble ramblings.

This posting is the 245th out of 365 days. That means that there is a posting 2 out of every 3 days, or every business day. That takes dedication on your part and mine, too. I feel that a nice symbiotic relationship is developing. The forthcoming year will most likely see a huge expansion in readership because my long awaited book is most likely going to be published next year. With that there will be a big publicity push and the blog is central to that strategy.

So count yourselves among the early adopters of what I am confident is a good thing: ze blog.

Much respect and deep thanks to all of you!
