Jack can use this information as an indicator that Mary’s investment style is changing. She’s invested in an aggressive fund, but she seems to be interested in a very conservative fund. Jack can send her a mix of e-mail targeted to aggressive and conservative investors, and once her interests become clear, he can add her to that group.
