MAGAZINE ALERT Thursday 8 February 2018 | | | THE E-MAGAZINE ESPECIALLY CREATED FOR INVESTORS AND TRADERS | | | | Dear Reader, Welcome to the February edition of Master Investor Magazine. Once again we have an exciting line-up of content from our stable of high calibre contributors, all of whom are seasoned investors/traders in their own right. Imagine a continent which leads the world in mobile telephony banking and in fourth generation (satellite) internet access. This is a continent which has achieved remarkable advances in health outcomes as evidenced by levels of infant mortality and life expectancy, and in education over the last two decades. And which is now enjoying supercharged growth. This continent has been attracting direct investment on a massive scale from both the West and from the new superpower, China, whose construction companies are ubiquitous there. Its natural resources are abundant. Its agriculture has massive potential (which is why the Chinese and others are buying farms there). Its infrastructure is gradually improving by leaps and bounds. This continent is Africa. What a pity, then, that so often when the word Africa is uttered, many people think of famine, pestilence, poverty and war. It is true that a few African countries are still benighted - mostly due to civil war, corruption and poor governance. But it's time to shed our prejudices and to acquaint ourselves with a continent of opportunity. | | IN THIS MONTH'S MASTER INVESTOR MAGAZINE | | | Mellon on the Markets Inside the mind of the Master Investor: Jim Mellon reports back from the JP Morgan Biotech conference in San Francisco. | | Meet the UK's smartest private investor Master Investor Show 2018 will be the UK's largest event for private investors and is a must for anyone serious about investing. | | Dividend Hunter - Who will be the next Carillion?
