Global Mining Investing $69.95, 2 Volume e-Book Set. Buy here.
Author, Andrew Sheldon

Global Mining Investing is a reference eBook to teach investors how to think and act as investors with a underlying theme of managing risk. The book touches on a huge amount of content which heavily relies on knowledge that can only be obtained through experience...The text was engaging, as I knew the valuable outcome was to be a better thinker and investor.

While some books (such as Coulson’s An Insider’s Guide to the Mining Sector) focus on one particular commodity this book (Global Mining Investing) attempts (and does well) to cover all types of mining and commodities.

RIM likely to find support

Research in Motion (TSE:RIM or NASDAQ:RIMM) is a stock that has emerged on my radar screen. The company's flagship product is the Blackberry smartphone. This phone has always been very popular with the business community, and we think the company is likely to have a resurgence, but perhaps under Android or Windows OS, or both. i.e. Letting the customer decide. It was never really software that distinguished it in the market was it? And how could you go wrong by adopting the same software as your competitors with a brand like Blackberry. There are other reasons as well:
1. The market is abuzz with tablets and touch screens. These are marketing gimmicks, and RIM is right to not get bedazzled by them. I can touch type far faster with fingers than I can with a touch screen. Buttons have edges; screens don't. I have never understood the appeal of these tablets either. They are tomorrows dinosaur. Expect netbook, mini-laptops and full-size laptops to dominate. Touchscreen is a fad with limited use.
2. Trading on low multiple: RIM is currently capitalised at $28 billion, it has $2billion in cash, and a PER of just 4.7 according to Google Finance.
3. Upside is huge. The market for Blackberry's are a discerning crowd. I personally prefer the Nokia E5, however people can expect a similar experience from RIM in forthcoming models.

Expect their new releases to grab sales from loyal business customers, i.e. Might it be selling off another 25,000 units to GM? I think so. These customers, unlike the retail customers, are sitting on the side, and not just for RIM's new product, but for new Android applications to justify dumping their old phones.
For this reason, I am expecting some good news from RIM in coming months. But what would I know....I am just a mining analyst who loves my Nokia E5. Want more info on RIM - I am responding to this story and Google Financial data.

Japan Foreclosed Property 2015-2016 - Buy this 5th edition report!

Over the years, this ebook has been enhanced with additional research to offer a comprehensive appraisal of the Japanese foreclosed property market, as well as offering economic and industry analysis. The author travels to Japan regularly to keep abreast of the local market conditions, and has purchased several foreclosed properties, as well as bidding on others. Japan is one of the few markets offering high-yielding property investment opportunities. Contrary to the 'rural depopulation' scepticism, the urban centres are growing, and they have always been a magnet for expatriates in Asia. Japan is a place where expats, investors (big or small) can make highly profitable real estate investments. Japan is a large market, with a plethora of cheap properties up for tender by the courts. Few other Western nations offer such cheap property so close to major infrastructure. Japan is unique in this respect, and it offers such a different life experience, which also makes it special. There is a plethora of property is depopulating rural areas, however there are fortnightly tenders offering plenty of property in Japan's cities as well. I bought a dormitory 1hr from Tokyo for just $US30,000.
You can view foreclosed properties listed for as little as $US10,000 in Japan thanks to depopulation and a culture that is geared towards working for the state. I bought foreclosed properties in Japan and now I reveal all in our expanded 350+page report. The information you need to know, strategies to apply, where to get help, and the tools to use. We even help you avoid the tsunami and nuclear risks since I was a geologist/mining finance analyst in a past life. Check out the "feedback" in our blog for stories of success by customers of our previous reports.
