Dear %%first_name%%,
In my quest to learn how to invest better and then pass on any learnings to you, I like to review the previous stories I’ve shared to see how the selections of my chosen experts worked out.

With reporting season in its last full week, James Dunn looks at Blackmores, Caltex, Seek, Rio Tinto, A2 Milk, Afterpay, Woolworths, Nine Entertainment, Flight Centre and Ramsay.

And in his briefest report ever, CMC Markets’ chief market strategist, Michael McCarthy, says he likes put options, gold stocks, selected biotechs and medical equipment manufacturers, but dislikes everything else!
