If I were a CEO.....

Being a CEO can’t be too difficult – at the very least all I would require is a long term plan of growth that could be divided into shorter projects that would build year on year. If I know I can do this and have enough funding to see me through for the long term, then it would just be a case of timing my projects and news flow according to the nature of the cycle.

Seeing as I would be able to see when my company would be in upcycle or downcycle on multiple timeframes (see blog post: Adventures with IM, 22 June 2015) then I would have the power to time my news flow to take advantage of the natural ebb and flow of supply and demand. Obviously this would require a bit of teamwork with shareholders, that is, in order to maintain the higher highs and higher lows in price, it would be nice to know that I have a few shareholders (less than 5 would do) who are long term invaders/investors of the company who would be happy to always have capital at the ready at the start of each upcycle.

I understand that the weekly upcycle won’t last forever but it would be useful to use the natural upcycle sentiment alongside positive company developments in order to help out the invaders building up free shares in the company for the future. When the company goes into downcycle I understand that this period of time is the most important part of the complete cycle so I would want to make sure that company developments are solid during this downcycle period. Given that I can get a rough idea of when the next upcycle is in play then it means I can be wiser when it comes to planning future news flow so that it can begin a few weeks prior to the next weekly upcycle. It would also be useful to focus efforts on public relations/media use during the latent upcycle period, discussing developments that have happened during the downcycle which may have been missed by the market due to the suppressive nature of the downcycle.

Timing and teamwork.

Easy. Hohum.
