Sin Stocks for those with poor memories

Today, as the Gumshoe vacation begins, I share with you some articles from … last week.

Since everyone on this green planet seems to be on vacation at some point in August, I figger if you’re here to check up on Stock Gumshoe now, you probably weren’t here last week. Impeccable logic, no?

Anyway, the series of articles on “Capone’s Legacy” seemed fairly popular, so I thought I’d share them with you again — here you go!

Capone’s Legacy Part 1: Beer

Capone’s Legacy Part 2: Gambling and Booze

And Part 3: Cigarettes, Cigars, and Slot Machines.

Don’t worry, I’ll only be lounging about on the beach for a week, so these reruns will only last a few more days … enjoy!
