The Bill Cara Blog as seen by Barron's, Sun., May 14, 2006, 3:30 PM

Kathy Yakal, writing for Barron's (The Electronic Investor column), May 15, 2006, thinks my blog "by far the meatiest" and "should be required reading". That's fine praise, coming as it does from Barron's.

"This week's blog is that of highly respected Bill Cara (www.billcara.com), hosted by, well, Bill Cara, a long time financial pro (read the Website's "About Us" section to learn about his impressive career). He picks, ";the best trades from computer analysis of quality, value and timing factors, without being influenced by biased or conflicted sources." His analysis of global financial markets feels like a friendly, insightful, educational day-long discussion. This is by far the meatiest blog we've seen. It should be required reading for new (and rusty) investors."
; The Electronic Investor

Yes, as long as I have the time, it is a "day-long discussion", but there is no better way to explain to people the workings of financial markets than through proof of concept. As market prices change by the minute, hour, day etc, the market is my working laboratory.

Not only do I get to work, but I get to teach.

Because the market is my passion, I get to teach a lot. And because some days I get very passionate about events in the market, and those events come so quickly, the teaching is non-stop " if I have the time to blog.

Through blogging, I now reach students in virtually every country in the world. It's a great joy doing what I do.
