Hedge funds and institutions drive the markets. And they are pulling money out of Emerging Markets at a rapid pace. This is one area of the market you do not want to own.
Just look at this chart below, a perfect head and shoulders top has been completed, projecting a 10% or more decline in Emerging Markets and the Emerging Markets ETF (EEM).

Let me share with you an incredible secret. The world’s greatest investor is not Warren Buffett.
Yes, Buffett is one of the richest men in the world. But there is a man who will overtake Buffett as the richest investor. His name is David Tepper.
David Tepper has the best track record of any investor in the world. Over the last 20 years he has averaged a 40% annual return.
Let me repeat that again, because it’s a staggering number. That’s right, David Tepper has averaged 40% a year over the last 20 years.
Let me put this in perspective for you. If you would have invested $10,000 with David Tepper in 1993 you would now have an incredible $8.3 million. Now, that highlights the two keys to building wealth as an investor. You need big returns. But also, consistent returns. And you need to compound those returns overtime.
That is why David Tepper is the world’s greatest investor. He has done it for a long time. And continues to do it. In what has been considered a tough market.
That is why David Tepper is worth over $7 Billion dollars at only 55 years old.
Now, here is where it should be particularly interesting to you.
David Tepper is just like you!
David Tepper is the true American Dream. He is the stereotypical average American male. He is a little overweight. He is balding. He is average height. And believe it or not, he is not some hot shot Ivy League grad or rocket scientist with a PHD from MIT.
David Tepper is just a graduate of a state school, the University of Pittsburgh. I say this not to disparage his education. I say this because it doesn’t really matter if you went to Harvard or Yale or Pittsburgh. I have a pretty fancy degree. But I can tell you this: It learned nothing about becoming a good investor. I’m a good investor because I have common sense. And because I know how the system works. The masses will always lose money or, at best, underperform. And that creates an opportunity for me and those like me.
I say all of this to emphasize that you can be, and should, be returning 40% a year like David Tepper.
I have told you numerous times on this blog that if you are not fully invested in stocks and if you not returning 30% to 50% a year then you are failing at investing. If you were in school you would get an F.
But look it’s not your fault. You have been suckered and sold by Wall Street. You’re invested in mutual funds that will never ever make you anything more than 6% to 7% returns on average.
You probably have your money with a stock broker, who is ripping you off by charging you large commissions, spreads, sales fees, plus another 2% to 3% management fees while giving you 5% annual returns – while putting your money at risk of being halved.
So I don’t blame you. But I will blame you if you do not change your investing strategy. If David Tepper, the stereotypical average American male can return 40% a year simply buying stocks, then so should you.
But you need a gameplan to do this. And I can help you. My blog and my premium research service The Billionaires Portfolio is built on the same philosophy that David Tepper uses. I like buying cheap undervalued stocks with catalysts and holding them to make triple digit returns. My goal is just like Mr.Tepper’s: To make all of us multi-millionaires by compounding our money at 30% to 50% returns annually.
So fire your broker. Sell your mutual funds. And learn from the world’s greatest investors how to compound your money at 30% to 50% a year.

Last week Facebook formed one of the most predictive and profitable price patterns I have ever seen as a trader.
It is what we call in the hedge fund business a positive asymmetrical trade. Meaning the trade offers little downside coupled with a huge upside for big profits.
Even better this trading setup on Facebook is allowing me to use a trick from my old hedge fund trading days that I have talked about before on this blog, my secret stock replacement strategy.
These types of trades only come along every couple of months, so you don’t want to miss this, as this trade could easily turn as little as $150 into more than $500 in less than 20 days or turn $1500 into more than $5000 in less than 20 days as well.
So here is what I am going to do, and I have never done this before, I am going give you the exact trading instructions on how to use my secret stock replacement strategy to trade Facebook, this includes sending you all the notes on my Facebook stock chart, which has the exact level where to put your stop, and the exact level where you want to take profits. Moreover it shows you visually what I am talking about, in terms of this being the best risk reward trading set up I have ever seen.
To get my exact trading instructions and my chart, you must subscribe today at https://www.fxtraderprofessional.com/order/billionaireport/
Folks you can not wait on this one, as this trade is going to happen on Monday… Remember not only will you get my trade and chart on Facebook but you will also get a subscription to my nationally recognized (featured in Forbes, CNN and the Chicago Tribune) stock and options picking service The Billionaires Portfolio.
As you know The Billionaires Portfolio is my premium service, where I hand select the best stock and option plays. The Billionaires Portfolio is up 28% in less than 9 months, with one stock on our books that has gone up over 200%. To put this in perspective The Billionaires Portfolio is beating more than 8000 hedge funds and 18,000 mutual funds in its performance. It is probably the top performing investment service on the planet, not only in terms of performance but also from a risk reward perspective.
Folks remember The Billionaires Portfolio is up 28% in less than 9 months, while holding a huge cash position, Our portfolio was only 100% fully invested until last month. That means we were crushing the stock market even though we were holding a huge percentage of our portfolio in cash.
Thanks

Folks, you are so lucky that I am such a giving person, connected and industrious person. Today, I’m going to tell you about one of the best hedge funds in the world – and a stock they have just bought that can make you over 1,000%.
This hedge fund is so good, that they have returned 40% a year over the past 12-years. That’s 40% annualized in the worst stock market period in history!
This fund has grown from $10 million to over $500 million just from compounding returns on their original $10 millions in assets. I’ll do the math for you: $10 million dollars compounded at 40% over 12 years equals $566 million.
Folks, I tell you time and time again, this is how you get rich. Why don’t you listen?
You put up consistent numbers and let the power of compounding work for you. Is that such a hard concept for you?
If you would have invested your $100,000 IRA or 401K with this hedge fund, back in 2002, you would have been retired by now. That $100,000 would be worth over $5.6 million today.
This fund is so good they already have one stock on the books for 2013 that is up over 1,100%. And another one is up over 500%.
Please stop watching CNBC. Stop reading the Wall Street Journal. That’s a recipe for staying poor. Listen to me. I’m trying to help you here.
To get rich, you have to bet on sure things. And you have to invest with people who are the best in the world. The guy who runs this hedge fund I’m telling you about is the best! Not only is he a smart businessman, but he scored a perfect score on his math SAT, and graduated from Harvard. Why does it matter? It does! The numbers prove it. Where did your broker go to school? What was his SAT score? My guess is that it’s lousy. That’s why he is in sales.
I will spare you the rest. But the bottom line: I am here to help you. For $297 a quarter, my subscribers have gotten, in return, over $5k in profits for every $20k they are managing, by following my picks. Again, for those of you that spend your time trying to time the market or find great trade opportunity, I’ll make it very clear for you … $297 for $5k is a good trade.
I have had two subscribers recently write to tell me that my free picks here on this blog – my service to society – has paid for the cost of the service in less than 72 hours. And another subscriber told me he is taking his entire family to Hawaii this summer because I made him over $8000 in profits. So there you go.
So you know the drill. If you sign up to The Billionaires Portfolio today, I will send you the details on a hot biotech stock that the genius hedge fund manager I’ve described above, has just bought. Like his other big winners, this stock has all of the trappings of another 1,000% winner for him.
So you will get my market crushing stock picking service, that’s up 27% in less than nine months. I’ve told you many times on this blog that you should be putting up 30-50% a year in the stock market. If you’re not, you’re missing out on the huge wealth-effect of compounding returns.
Listen, don’t email about the cost of the service, or if your waffling about whether or not you think it’s worth it. If that’s the case, you are not smart enough to be one of my subscribers.
If you are smart enough to let me help you, you can sign up here: https://www.fxtraderprofessional.com/order/billionaireport/

That’s right! I am going to tell you how to make 500% on a tech stock by August. Moreover, this trade can make money regardless of whether the market goes down or up in the next three months.
But first, I want to vent a little. Folks, there is not another blogger, newsletter, journalist, investment guru, mutual fund or money manager who has made you as much money as I have in the past four months.
Let’s review …
I made you almost 600% in Sprint (S) Call Options. I picked two stocks on this blog that were up over 100% in less than 3 months: Eagle Bulk Shipping (EGLE) and Trina Solar (TSL).
My partner called the declines in gold, not once, not twice, but three different times. So if you were trading options on these blog posts, you would have made over 1000%. If you were trading ETFs you would have made over 100%.
Then, two weeks ago I called the bottom in Apple (AAPL). Apple has done nothing but go straight up since then, even in a choppy market.
And for my encore, I just called the exact top in Facebook (FB). And I gave you an options play that is now up more than 100% in less than three days.
Let me repeat this: I gave you an options play on FB that is up more than 100% in three days. Still, I get emails from people wringing their hands about stuff they read online. Enough! Stop emailing me if you aren’t smart enough to take advantage of what I’m giving you. Keep following the lead of journalists.
So, let’s put this into perspective. If you are trading a $2,000 account, a $20,000 account or $200,000 account, and you are smart enough to read my blog, I personally have made you thousands, if not tens of thousands of dollars. Regardless of how small you might be, I have still likely made you thousands of dollars!
Listen, if I have been giving you this much for FREE, just image what my subscribers are getting in my Billionaire’s Portfolio service.
Well, I don’t want to leave anything to your imagination. I will tell you.
I have subscribers that have made $30,000, even $100,000, in my paid service. That’s a pretty nice trade, right? They pay me $297 a quarter, and I help them actually make money – a lot of it. For those that have modest investment accounts of $5,000. I’ve made them over $1,000.
So that’s the story. I can lead the horse to water, but I can’t make him drink.
For some of you, I have to resort to using the carrot. Here’s my carrot:
Subscribe to my Billionaire’s Portfolio service. You can do so by clicking here. When you do, I’ll send you my juicy new trade that I’m betting will return 500% or more by August. Not only do I have a record of capitalizing on trades like this, but I’ve shown you time and time again in this blog. How is that for credibility?

Last week I called the bottom in Apple, one that will hold for at least the next year and make you 50% to 100% in profits. And here, on this blog, my partner called the crash in gold, and then told you the bounce was a gift of a life-time (a second chance) to get out!
Let me repeat this: Bryan Rich, a former trader at a billion dollar global macro hedge fund and global macro economist, told you on my blog in April that gold was going to collapse if it broke $1522. It did. And it created ripples across global markets.
If you would have followed Bryan’s initial recommendation, you would have made over 1000% in options and almost 100% shorting leveraged ETFs, or 30% just shorting the gold ETF ($GLD).
What did Bryan do for an encore? He told you on the last two pullbacks that you should sell gold every single time. And of course he was dead right.
If you don’t believe me read his weekly Big Picture piece here.
Bryan’s Big Picture piece is read by some of the top hedge funds and family offices around the world. So it is a must read!
Not only has Bryan told you to sell gold, but he was extremely bullish on the US stock market and Japanese stocks before anyone else in the world. He was telling my subscribers to be long 100% stocks back in December. The Wall Street hacks were telling you that the fiscal cliff was going to pulverize stocks. They told you the sequester was going to trigger a crash. They told you Cyprus was going to cause a collapse…then the Boston bombings. Bryan said, don’t listen to this ignorance. Just buy stocks. “We’ve just entered another wave of coordinated, global central bank easing — the central banks have given us a green light.”
Now, over six months later, the rest of the world is starting to get it. And my subscribers are richer. Meanwhile, you are probably still wringing your hands listening to the losers.
Fine, don’t listen to me, or Bryan Rich or Warren Buffett for that matter. Keep watching the hacks on TV. Keep listening to your unqualified broker. Keep following the guidance of the 25-year old journalists at the Wall Street Journal. As I’ve said before, when the sheep are steadily walking off the cliff, it just makes it easier for me to make money, taking the other side of their trades.
If you do want to wake up and listen, start by reading what Bryan has said on gold and stocks over the past six months. You can find it here. And maybe, if you’re nice, I might bring him back on the blog. By the way, he says gold is going to $800 – pre QE levels.
You can always subscribe to The Billionaires Portfolio (here) and get his economic and Big Picture advice on a weekly basis.
By the way: I’m frequently asked “why I do this blog?” Guess what? I wrote a blog post on it. You can find it here.

Anyone who has read my blog knows that I have been a huge bear on Apple because I knew that many of the biggest mutual funds and hedge funds were dumping this stock over the last 3 months.
Yet I never mentioned the fundamentals of Apple, which everyone already know about how they have the best balance sheet in the world, a great dividend that’s higher than the 10 year treasury and growing, and now a perfect technical trading setup on the chart.
See I am an opportunist, I might have hated Apple over the last 3 months, but that does not mean I am not always looking at the stock every week to see if there are any signs of a bullish reversal.
Well we finally have one Apple is starting to form an incredibly bullish pattern its called an Inverse Head and Shoulders Pattern. Almost everyone knows what a Head and Shoulders Pattern is, it is probably the most common technical analysis pattern in trading. An Inverse Head and Shoulders pattern is an extremely bullish reversal pattern, it occurs when a stock forms a bottom buy printing a series of 3 lows. Whats important about this pattern is volume, volume must be heavy on the lowest low, because that signals a wash out- an exhaustion selling, where are the sellers have sold their position and this is exactly what has occurred in Apple.
Just look at the Chart below,
Now the second reason I think Apple is bottomed is that there is a catalyst which propel this stock back up to the $545 area, which would be a 25% move from Apple’s current share price of $433.
Here is the catalyst, Tim Cook the CEO of Apple, for the first time has come out and lobbied for Apple verbally in the public domain. This is a sign of leadership major hedge funds have been waiting for. Mr. Cook is going to congress and try and work with the US Government on repatriating the billions of dollars that Apple has overseas back into the US at a lower tax rate. I think the US Government will work with Apple and Mr. Cook on this. Why? well as Mr. Cook has said Apple is a huge taxpayer already and a huge employer of US Citizens, so they have a lot of power to negotiate and therefore I believe Apple and the US government will cut a deal on this offshore money.
Why is this bullish for the stock? Well besides the obvious cash issue, market players (hedge funds, mutual funds) hate uncertainty. As I told you these funds like to bet on sure things, and the reason they have not been buying Apple recently is the uncertainty over Apple’s offshore cash hoard. Now that this issue is coming to the forefront with Tim Cook going to congress to discuss this, the cloud of uncertainty will start to disappear. When you combine that catalyst with the bullish Inverse Head and Shoulders Chart Pattern, it means Apple has bottomed. Let me repeat that I am calling the bottom in Apple today 5/18/2013.
Just remember who told you this, remember three months from now how I was the only one who was telling you to sell Apple over the last 3 months, and now I am the only one calling the bottom in Apple.

Folks the joke on Wall Street and at all the hedge fund trading desks is YOU!
Listen, as I have told you before, I don’t throw darts or guess to invest. I only bet on sure things.
I do this through my elite information network of contacts at some of the world’s top billionaire hedge funds. I listen when these guys talk because they move the market and they know who is selling and buying in bulk.
Well, there has been a huge mystery seller in Gold that no-one outside of the hedge fund world knows about, and this entity is the reason that gold has plummeted and will continue to plummet. Your stock broker or mutual fund manager doesn’t know this, or they don’t want to tell you, because they want to get your commissions and fees. But the real deal is that global central banks around the world are the real secret seller of gold. Central banks around the world who have accumulated gold in droves during the past 10 years are now dumping gold like crazy.
Why? Central bankers know the real money right now is in US Stocks. Stocks are where these central bankers are parking their money, not only do stocks have the potential to return 20% a year but many of these US stocks pay a juicy dividend of 3% to 4% much higher than US treasuries. So if your a central banker and would you want to earn something on your cash (which they all do), then you buy stocks with dividends. Remember gold has no dividend, never has never will. You get nothing for holding gold!
Think about it this way, many of the best brand name stocks with AA credit ratings have yields higher than US treasuries and they offer the potential for capital appreciation as well. What does Gold offer? Nothing. No dividend. Gold does not have earnings. No cash flow. Gold is just a fear trade.
So while you are sitting there holding your gold or GLD etf, wondering why you are losing money, I am telling you why, right here! Central banks around the world are pressing the sell button on gold every chance they get. This is why my partner and I have told you gold is going to $800, and also why you should sell all of your gold and put it into stocks.
Oh and by the way, in my top performing premium stock picking service The Billionaires Portfolio, I am recommending to my clients today one of the most lucrative and hottest option plays of the year.
Please do not miss this. If you subscribe to The Billionaires Portfolio not only will you get my premium stock service which is up more than 20% in less than 9 months, with 3 stocks that have 100% or more in gains, but you will also get my newest option play, which I think has the potential to make 600% to 800% in just a couple of months turning a $400 investment into $3000.
Also on March 7th I told all the readers on my blog to buy Eagle Bulk Shipping (EGLE) as a leveraged play on the shipping sector. Well, since then, Eagle Bulk is up 150% in less than 3 months time. And yesterday alone it went up almost 60%. That’s how good I am.

I have been telling you for the last three months that mutual funds and hedge fund were dumping Apple. If you don’t believe me look through all past my blog posts and you will see that almost every single week I was trying to save you money by telling you to sell Apple.
I told you that hedge funds mutual funds wanted nothing to do with this rotting stock. Folks this isn’t rocket science you know my background, I have over 15 years of experience in the hedge fund industry working as a Portfolio Manager, Trader and analyst.
I have hundreds of contacts and friends at some of the biggest hedge funds in the world, I have a network of over 2000 people in the hedge fund industry. I live and breathe this stuff. So when I tell you that hedge funds and mutual funds are selling Apple next time listen.
And of course I was right, we just learned this week that most of the biggest hedge funds Tiger Global, Appaloosa Management and others were selling their entire Apple stake over the last 3 months. There it is, that’s why the stock went down simple supply and demand, it didn’t matter that you told me Apple had this much cash, or this much cash flow, all that mattered was there were more sellers than buyers that’s it!!
But instead you read articles from Motley Fool, and their 25 year old Apple Analyst who went to the number one party school in the country Arizona State University, and who has zero-zilch experience in the hedge fund industry or Wall Street. You also listened to the hacks at Barrons, Wall Street Journal who said Apple was a great value at $500. So for your own good and for your own retirement account at least listen to what I am saying.
On Zynga (symbol: ZNGA) I told you months ago, I liked the chart and the fundamentals of this stock at $2.80. Today it’s $3.50, and oh by the way one of the biggest Activist Hedge Funds in the World, Jana Partners just disclosed today that it purchased over 25 million shares of Zynga, coincidence, I think not.
Folks I might not be a genius but I am persistent with over 15 years of experience working in the hedge fund industry including a top ranked Billion dollar Hedge Fund means I have learned a thing or two. I know what stocks hedge fund like, I know what stocks activist hedge funds like and I tell you all this in my service The Billionaires Portfolio.
I also know what stocks Hedge Funds and Mutual Funds like to sell, I was a trader at a hedge fund and a big institutional investment firm, I know how big funds blow out a stock and what it looks like. And again I tell you all this in my Billionaires Portfolio Service.
But no you would rather read articles by The Insider Monkey written by a 28 year old girl who has never worked a day in the hedge fund or investment industry.
Folks I am trying to give you the news before it’s printed. I mentioned Zynga two months before it was disclosed that one of the biggest hedge funds in the world was buying it, and yet you ignore it. If you want to know what’s really going on in the stock market what the big money players are doing what they are buying, what they are selling than do yourself a favor and subscribe to my Billionaires Portfolio at https://www.fxtraderprofessional.com/order/billionaireport/

Let me tell you a sobering fact about the mutual fund industry: Ninety-eight percent of all mutual funds have underperformed the S&P 500 over the last 10-years.
That’s right. Only two percent of all mutual funds have beaten the S&P 500 over the last 10-years.
So, out of the 10,000 mutual funds that invest in stocks, only 200 have beaten the S&P 500. That’s horrendous. So for you, the mutual fund customer, you are facing some horrible odds when trying to pick a good one.
Listen, you would have a better chance betting on sports or horses than you would trying to pick a mutual fund that will beat the S&P 500. So stop doing it!
Mutual funds are for the common sheep. Everyone in the hedge fund industry jokes that mutual fund are the “ McDonalds of Investment Products” — heavy on marketing, weak on quality and bad for your health.
How do I know this sobering statistics?
Several years back, I was paid by an investment management firm as a consultant, to do an extensive study, alongside a PHD from MIT. Our task: To see if we could build a model or ranking system that would predict which, if any, mutual funds could beat the S&P 500 over the next one, five or ten years.
We had over 30 years of data on 18,000 mutual funds to use in our study. My research partner and I ran over 1 million simulations/tests to see if there were any predictive characteristics, such as manager tenure, turnover or investment style, that would predict whether a mutual fund would outperform.
Guess what? We failed. We could not find any trait or characteristic that would predict mutual fund outperformance.
Why? Because they all buy the same stocks. They all have high fees. They all have rules, which will not allow them to buy certain securities. And the ones that try to be contrarian tend to ultimately blow up and have a horrible year, right after they show some outperformance.
Remember, I did this study with one of the smartest mathematicians in the world — a man with a PHD from MIT in Mathematics, and he worked for The Department of Defense in the 1970’s as a code breaker. Let me just say this, if he could not find a way to predict which mutual funds would beat the S&P 500, there is no way you can! Trust me!
If I were you, I would sell all of your mutual funds in your 401K, I don’t care if your company matches or not, it doesn’t matter. I promise you that you will never retire rich investing in mutual funds. There is not one mutual fund over the last 20-years that has returned more than 15% a year, not one.
Remember, not only have I told you that you should be returning 30% to 50% a year, but the world’s richest man, Warren Buffett, has told you the same thing. So if you don’t want to listen to me listen to mega billionaire Buffett.
So how do you return 30% to 50% a year? You invest differently than the masses. An easy way to achieve good, meaningful returns … you follow the world’s richest billionaire investors and hedge funds like I do.
Take David Tepper of Appaloosa Partners…
The media loves to squawk about how great he is, NOW. Ninety-nine percent of industry professionals didn’t even know who he was 18-months ago. I did. I’ve known his every move for well over a decade. Why? He has returned 40% a year over the past 20 years. Let me repeat that: David Tepper, a self made billionaire has returned 40% a year annualized over the last 20 years.
How did he achieve this 40% a year return every year for 20 years? Because he invested the exact opposite the way mutual funds and brokers do.
He buys stocks under $5. Mutual funds and brokers don’t. Plus they will tell you that stocks like that are “dangerous.” You know what’s dangerous, the guy telling you that.
On the other hand, Tepper (not a hack broker, but a Billionaire) buys stocks that are distressed and completely left for dead by Wall Street. And he does serious research before he invests. These are all things mutual funds and your brokers never do!
But I do.
In my service, The Billionaires Portfolio, some of our biggest winners were stocks that were left for dead by Wall Street, even though they may have had a multibillion dollar market cap.
Consider this: We bought a deeply undervalued ($3) stock that is now up more than 120%. And we followed two of the best billionaire investors in the world into these stocks.
Guess what? When a billionaire plows us much as 10-15% of his net worth into a stock, he’s not going to sit back and watch what happens. He’s going to make it happen. He will create value in a company. And in turn, he creates value for me and my customers.
That is what we do in our service, The Billionaires Portfolio. We follow the best. Join us: https://www.fxtraderprofessional.com/order/billionaireport/
Oh, and by the way. Guess how much of his own net worth your favorite mutual fund manager puts into the stocks he buys. Less than 5%! That’s right. The average mutual fund manager puts less than 5% of his net worth into his own mutual fund. And yet you put up to 100% of your net worth in these funds. Don’t do it.
