Shah Gilani
Wall Street superstar and former hedge fund manager Shah Gilani is the Chief Investment Strategist of Manward Press and at the helm of the Manward Money Report newsletter and the Launch Investor and Alpha Money Flow trading services. He’s a sought-after market commentator and has appeared on CNBC, Fox Business and Bloomberg TV. He’s also been quoted in The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times and The Washington Post, and he’s had columns published in Forbes.
In 1982, he launched his first hedge fund from his seat on the floor of the Chicago Board Options Exchange. He worked in the pit as a market maker when options on the S&P 100 Index first began trading… and was part of a handful of traders who laid the technical groundwork for what would eventually become the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX). He also ran the futures and options division at the largest retail bank in Britain. Shah gained notoriety for calling the implosion of U.S. financial markets (all the way back in February 2008) AND the mega bull run that followed.
Now at the helm of Manward, Shah is focused tightly on one goal: To do his part to make subscribers wealthier, happier and more free.

Retailers Overflowing in Unwanted Goods to Slash Prices – Here’s How to Play It
There’s been a lot written over the last few years about the impact of COVID-19 and the supply chain crisis that left retail shelves nearly empty since March 2020. COVID caused a run on things like toilet paper, lockdowns in China closed factories that produced goods we buy here in the US, and the supply […]
Ring the Register on 100% Gains When Today’s Rally Crumbles
Who doesn’t love a rally? I certainly do, especially if I see it as a dead cat bounce. Why? Because the sarcastic guy I am thinks dead cat bounces are an opportunity to make money when the stocks come right back down. Almost every short-term rally we’ve seen in this bear market have given way […]
Fed Knocks Markets Lower and You’ll Profit as They Fall
After the Federal Reserve’s 75-basis-point rate hike on Wednesday, stocks dropped significantly in Thursday’s trading. That’s no surprise considering many investors fear the Fed’s rate-hike policy could push the U.S. economy into a recession. With rising rates and a fear of recession as the backdrop, this week, I’m focusing on U.S. Treasuries and consumer discretionary […]
SEC Could Kill Retail Trading in Misguided Plan to Control Wall Street
Gary Gensler, chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission, is out to kill payment-for-order-flow (PFOF), the misunderstood retail trade routing mechanism that birthed commission-free trading while enriching a few love-to-hate brokerages and Wall Street scapegoats.
But killing PFOF could kill retail trading and investing, the greatest, most equalizing, easiest to access, wealth creation avenue for all Americans.
This is a big story, but the circus surrounding the 75-basis-point rate hike the Fed announced on yesterday has swept it under the rug along with all the opportunities it represents for us. So, I wanted to take time in today’s Total Wealth to address what this means for you and what you can do about it.
Turn the Market Bloodbath into Triple-Digit Gains When the Fed Raises Rates
The media has finally accepted something I have been saying all along: we are in bear market territory. Hard selling triggered by last week’s horrid CPI numbers and horrid consumer sentiment levels pushed the S&P 500, officially, into bear market territory. Stocks, bonds, and the rest are all getting hammered. It’s a bloodbath out there, […]
Robinhood Loss of $3 Billion Could Be Your Gain with this New Play
On Friday, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that the Consumer Price Index (CPI) showed a year-over-year increase of 8.6% in May 2022. That’s the highest inflation print since 1981, as Americans contend with a surge in gas, food, and shelter costs. According to estimates compiled by Bloomberg, economists were expecting an 8.3% increase in […]
Shares Spike on Rumors of Credit Suisse Takeover – My Advice, Don’t Fall for It
I don’t usually comment on the same stock two weeks in a row, but recent news about Credit Suisse (CS) had many of you asking for an update to last week’s Buy, Sell, or Hold. Rumors are swirling that U.S. bank State Street Corp. (STT) may takeover Credit Suisse. Now, I’ve gone on the record […]

Biden’s Move to Ramp Up Solar Energy Creates Your Next Profit Play
Knowingly or not, President Biden has just set up what I believe to be solar’s next big run. Over the weekend, Biden decided by executive order to incorporate the Defense Production Act to increase solar panel production in the United States. Tariffs on foreign solar equipment have been suspended, some for two years, to ensure […]
