| Investing in "the hurricane cycle" |

Haven't checked this out yet. A friend told me about it last year.
He buys Home Depot and Lowes during the "off" season and sells them either with the approach of the new season or when there's a hurricane forecast to hit. Kind of makes sense.

It is trading. Serious investors don't hold stocks for only 6 or 8 months at a time.

All the best. Buy low and sell high is all you need to know. Well...not ALL you need...but it will serve you well.
