January 21, 2007 - Defined within the realm of the statistical Bell Curve, the long tail would reside in the skinny tail at the borders. The long tail, in regards to goods and services, refers to the evolution away from mainstream offerings towards more niche products and services. With the internet drastically reducing the costs of establishing distribution channels, the ability of entrepreneurs to focus more on the long tail sector to fit their customized needs is gaining increasing appeal. 
Many times people say to me “Oh, you’re contrarian right?” and though I subtitle my blog as “Contrarian investment news you won’t find in the mainstream media”, a much more accurate self-description of my style would be as a “rabbit-hole investor”. Rabbit hole investing is much more than just buying assets when they are hated and selling them when mania surrounds them, as is the behavior people tend to associate with contrarian investors. In addition to implementing that aforementioned strategy when reality bears out a good risk-reward setup, I also seek out investment opportunities that no one is even considering, which wouldn’t fit into the “contrarian box” at all. Rabbit hole investing has more similarities to playing chess than it does to contrarian investing. The only reason I use the word “contrarian” is because nobody would ever understand what I meant by rabbit hole investing.
