My name is Silence Saunders and this is my almanac.

Not your grandpa’s almanac with trivia about stars, crops and tides.

This is my online investing journal, the place where I write down my thoughts and occasionally unearth asymmetric ideas that might generate some serious alpha.


Now, a few house rules stating the obvious…

What not to expect:

  • Overlaps between Jimmy Cramer’s portfolio and mine (so help me God).

  • Real boring, “no but this is as much about family legacy as about making money” ideas. I’ll leave these to the 7% CAGR purists.

  • Companies I have no or limited interest in: a circle of competence is cool but a circle of appetence is my true jazz.

What you will find here:

  • Regular comments on the pebbles I am looking at.

  • Short-ish write ups on boulders that I either own or covet.

  • Occasional random walks about investing-related topics.


Alright, welcome to my casbah
