When you consider that..........
- Over 40,000 public companies trade on the
various stock exchanges across North America!
- Over 7,000 mutual funds are available today
with only 1 in 10 that beats the S&P 500 in any given 10 year period!
Over 61% of adult America and 23% of
the world are invested in the stock market today!
Over 88% receive investment advice
from one or more newsletters, analysts, money managers!
Over 1,000 investment newsletters are
available at an average cost of $189 per year!
- On-line trading has burgeoned in the past
year and will continue to do so, but requires an astute investor be armed with as much
credible information as possible to be successful. In your investments, information
is not a luxury, it's mandatory!
BUT,
with all the available advice and information, very few know that......
| The big killings in the market are almost always made on
privileged information obtained well in advance of the Wall Street gurus and certainly way
ahead of the investing public! |
Here are common
sense considerations that make our service invaluable to YOU - the investor:
There is a tremendous amount of
market advice available from many sources!
The opinions shared by these sources
are almost always varied on what to buy, what to sell, what to hold, or even when to take
any of these actions!
As a group, stock analysts appear to
engage in herd behavior - when one analyst switches a recommendation on a stock, others
often follow, and, if you follow that herd mentality, you may get trampled in the process
as you are probably going in the wrong direction.
Most investors put their
"faith" in the advice given by analysts. Faith is not a valid means of acquiring
knowledge. A person's faith that the world is flat does not make it so. So it is with
analysts' opinions.
The most accurate indicator
of any stock's direction is given when the insiders are buying or selling it. Heavy
insider trading almost always masks privileged information. Makes sense that the ones
running a company know more about its activities than Wall Street!
The insiders know what the next
quarter's earnings will be; they'll know about a strategic alliance, a new product, and
many things that go on behind closed doors to effect the company's stock price, L-O-N-G
before the street gets wind. Why not follow their buy/sell signals?
The best reason to believe in the
future of any company may be the fact that the principals want to put their own money at
risk in buying its stock and that the insiders are buying stock at the full market price and not with special incentives
that would lessen the significance.
The best reason to lose faith in the
future of a company is when its principals are dumping their stock positions long before
the public is made aware of the "WHY".
Sizable profits, fast, and safety are
the major reasons for following the insiders' activity. It takes the guess work out of the
equation.
The SEC requires a company to file
such activity, but by the time Wall Street receives the information, much less the public,
the stock could have already made a play.
These filings need to be received in
an extremely timely manner and properly interpreted, if one is to benefit from this
privileged information.
