    The January effect is predicated on the theory that investors tend to sell of their losing stocks towards the end of the year in order to write the losses off on their taxes. Therefore, according to the January effect, stocks will tend to dip towards the end of the year and rebound in January when tax-loss selling has ended.

    The January effect is supposed to have a greater affect on small-cap stocks (as opposed to large-caps) since it is assumed that a relatively small amount of tax-loss selling will still have a significant impact on a relatively small, thinly-traded company

    Analysis of broad samples of value-weighted and equal-weighted returns of U.S. equities documents that abnormally high rates of return on small-capitalization stocks continue to be observed during the month of January.

    The Cold Calling Conspiracy
    A conspiracy exists in the world of selling. A cold calling conspiracy.What I’m talking about is the requirement by most sales organizations to make cold calls on your time and at your expense. They say that cold calls equal appointments equal sales, but that’s not true anymore. All sales managers are guilty of teaching it, believing it, and u
