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.
Don’t Bother with AfterPay, this FinTech Company is the Real Moneymaker
I was doing some online shopping recently and, right as I was about to confirm my payment something caught my eye… Next to credit, debit, and PayPal there was a new option asking if I was wanted to pay for my stuff not as a grand total but in small monthly installments.
If you’ve been shopping around like me, you may have seen this, too – spreading across online sellers like wild fire.
Don’t Let the Hype Fool You, Wall Street’s EV Dogpile Isn’t a Sign to Buy
Lucid Group (Nasdaq:LCID) started trading last Monday after the electric vehicle (EV) company completed a blank-check merger with Churchill Capital Corp. IV.
As you would expect, there was a lot of hype around this listing, and after the obligatory first-day pop, the stock dropped through the rest of the week.
I like Lucid, as a company. The cars are beautiful, and they represent a potential alternative to Tesla for higher-end buyers. That being said, the company hasn’t delivered a single car.
Wait! Don’t Buy Robinhood Stock Yet, Shah Gilani Explains in New Video
Robinhood is finally open to public trading after weeks of public interest and speculative articles about who, what, when, and where…
Well now we know – but that doesn’t answer the most important question: is it a buy, sell, or hold?
The Only – And I Mean Only – Move to Make with Chinese Stocks
I’m going to let you in on a little, make that big, secret – one that may actually be an outright stunner to all the trading/investing veterans and newbie retail traders checking this out today.
Here it is: I still love the giant Chinese tech stocks that trade on American exchanges.
More importantly, I believe you can make money on these stocks.
Lots of money – and on the “long” side, no less.
I realize this flies in the face of the conventional wisdom when it comes to U.S.-listed Chinese tech stocks – but it’s what I believe.
There is a “catch” here, however.
You see, there’s only one way to play this – only one strategy that makes perfect sense.
It’s the one way to grab the latest upside I see here, while avoiding the slaughter that will ensue if the escalating U.S.-China spat “goes nuclear” – which it could.
I’m going to show you this “one strategy” for U.S.-listed Chinese tech stocks and EV plays.
And I’m going to tell you everything you need to know…
Own the Same Profitable Stock as ARK CEO Cathie Wood for .000001% of the Cost
My inbox has been filled with questions about cryptocurrencies recently, which is great. You should be paying attention to cryptos – the space is catching fire once again as Bitcoin prices rebound back north of $39,000.
But, at least in my opinion, outright buying cryptocurrencies is not the best way to spend your $100 this week. Instead, I’ve got another play for you with just as much potential.
Leave this Mismanaged ETF Off Your Portfolio for Good
Once again, SPACs seem to be on everyone’s minds… but we have to be careful when picking the cream from the crop. Many of you asked me about a SPAC ETF this week that should not be on your portfolio.
You can learn more about it and four other stocks by clicking the video below.
Get it While It’s Hot! This Commodity Has Taken a Dip and We are Buying In
The only thing more American than apple pie – at least in my opinion – is corn. Not only is this a dinner-time staple during summer cookouts, but it’s a great alternative sweetener, alternative fuel, and alternative plastic. It’s experienced a strong positive trend since the start of the growing season back in April and […]
Use this Play to Profit Off of the Russell’s Downturn
In addition to two buys and a strategic hold, I have an exclusive play for you in today’s BS.H. If you’ve been watching the Russell 2000, you may have seen it go sideways in the last few days…
Suddenly, it’s taken a dip, and if that trend continues, you could rake in major profits with this stock play.
Grab This Under-$10 Fintech Innovator – Before its Merger Deal Launches the Shares
If you live in the U.S., there is a very good chance that you’ve got a friend named Dave.
Heck, you could be a Dave yourself.
As recently as March of this year, David was the sixth-most-common name in America.
There are approximately 3.56 million “Daves” in the U.S. alone, and a brand-new fintech start-up just added one more that’s reportedly worth – wait for it – $4 billion.
Founder and entrepreneur Jason Wilk, thinking to himself that, “everyone’s got a friend named Dave, right?” created the company Dave Inc. Simply referred to as Dave or dave.com, the company got its start back in 2016 marketing itself as a “friend” you could turn to for a small loan to bump up your balances and to avoid pesky overdraft fees – which average at $38 a pop if you happen to tip too much on a debit card or mistime a direct deposit.
Now, this is a sound concept for a company and fintech is a lucrative space to be in, but that’s not the only reason this particular Dave is grabbing headlines right now. Dave agreed to merge into the recently IPO’d VPC Impact Acquisition Holdings III (NYSE: VPCC), which valued Dave at that whopping $4 billion.
VPC Impact is one of the so-called “blank-check companies” you’ve probably been reading a lot about lately. More specifically, it’s a Special Purpose Acquisition Company (SPAC) Special Purpose Acquisition Company, or SPAC, that offers individual investors opportunities to buy into startup ventures.
VPCC – soon to be Dave – is generating a lot of SPAC buzz.
