Senior Analyst, Motley Fool Canada Fool since July 2005 Jim Gillies is Motley Fool Canada’s Senior Analyst. A dyed-in-the-wool value investor and lover of small equities, Jim also supplements his prudent portfolio with opportunistic options strategies. He believes that if you can’t tell a story with numbers, it’s probably not worth telling. When not playing with financial matters, he’s honing his amateur chef skills, mashing around the country on one of his bikes, or futilely anticipating the return to glory of the Toronto Maple Leafs and New York Islanders (it’s been a long wait).
