Posted on 04. May, 2011 by David Spinowitz.
Check out this great clip of proposed replacement sayings for that old adage of “Sell in May and go away.” Here are a few of my favorites: “Buy today’s cause it’s early May“, “Buy tomorrow with funds you borrow“, “Buy all commodities without hesitation, but don’t dare we have inflation“, “Buy the REITs cause real estate is on fire, but don’t you dare become an actual home buyer” What is your favorite?

Game Changer?…Better Place Opens FIRST Battery Swap Station in Israel
