FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Back by popular demand, keynote speaker Weston J. Wellington from Dimensional Fund Advisors will be speaking on “Redefining Investment Advice”. The local community is invited to come and hear Weston answer questions such as:
- Why should you expect your eight-year old daughter to pick stocks as well as a top Wall Street analyst?
- Why is it likely that above-average companies will exhibit below average investment returns?
- To an overwhelming degree, three simple factors explain why one diversified portfolio behaves differently from another. What are they?
- Why did a psychology professor who never took a finance course receive the Nobel Prize in Economics?
“Weston will explain why these puzzles are no mystery and why investors owe it to themselves to understand the simple but powerful forces shaping the behavior of capital markets the world over,” said Dan Gensler.
Weston J. Wellington majored in history at Yale and has spent over thirty-five years in the investment industry. He is one of the most engaging and enlightening speakers on financial markets and has spoken to audiences throughout the United States, Canada, Europe, New Zealand, Australia and Latin America. He is an accomplished writer with a regular column, Down to the Wire. It is from this pulpit that he launches his debunking of erroneous media predictions about various markets. This media watchdog role gives Weston another forum to emphasize the importance of “discipline and diversification.”
