Nelson M. Alves is a professional investor, established in Portugal. He started his career in 2007 right at the start of the biggest crisis since 1929. Until 2012 he worked in several trading desks. In 2012, Nelson A. wrote the first volume of the European Jewels research collection (now out-of-print). His main investment influences are Philip Fisher and Warren Buffet. Being a thorough student of several investment approaches, he believes that the equity markets should be on the service of both small and institutional investors, and therefore every citizen should be able to reclaim his fair share of the long-term growing prosperity around the world. He sustains these claims in the book Who wants to be a pensioner (2013). Nelson has also been involved in local administration consultancy projects. He currently works on debt management for Energias de Portugal (EDP). Since 2014, Nelson has been collaborating with seekingalpha.com. He also posts his ideas and thoughts on the www.investmentgems.net website, you can visit it and get to know better Nelson’s investment principles and you can contact him through Linkedin.less
