Shah Gilani's Archive
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.
This IPO Will Be Your Bread and Butter at $40 a Share
Our first stop on today’s watchlist belongs in a league of investing that I predict will churn out 500,000 new millionaires by the end of the year.
I’m talking about initial public offerings, or IPOs. If you aren’t familiar, that’s when a company finally goes public, putting shares on the market for investors like us. It’s a great opportunity to get in at the bottom of a burgeoning company and ride all the way to the top as they grow.
Which is why I’m watching this company like a hawk. Toast Inc. (NYSE:TOST) operates a tech platform that streamlines all front and back of house work utilized by at least 40,000 restaurants in the U.S. and more abroad.
Gain 25-50% as this Pathetic Bank Pulls Itself Up by Its Bootstraps
Now, I want to make this plain: I hate this Swiss bank.
Its financials are abysmal, which is difficult to do for a bank.
The Markets Have Beaten Down this Retailer – BUY IT
The DOW and S&P 500 are down – dragging many stocks down with it – but that’s no reason for you to be concerned.
Your Food-Inflation Action Plan
There is a national issue at hand today that is staring you in the face every time you enter a grocery store: food prices are rising, and they won’t stop any time soon.
I’ve addressed this a few times before, including a piece I wrote back in August that I still stand by today (you can read that here) that explores some of the reasons why food inflation is hitting us so hard.
In the time since, food prices have hit new highs due to inflation. Over the past two years, food costs rose 16%, which is particularly noticeable in the meat and dairy aisle of your local grocery store. Beef, chicken, pork, fish, and eggs are all up in price.
This is a major trend – one that I’m watching closely so I can pinpoint the best investments and strategies that you can use to counteract the attack on your wallet every time you buy food.
This week, I’ve got a three-part action plan that, if my predictions are correct, could be the best plays on the market right now.
Court Ruling Lines Up New Money-Making Plays – Act Now
The success of one company over another isn’t an issue of legality. This should be common sense, but the courts had to rule on it just this week – and it’s had some interesting effects on the market.
The Stock Sale Big Banks Can’t Touch
China is acting out, giving Wall Street analysts and big-time investors a scare – and I love it. Everyone is pulling out of the two companies I’m recommending to you today, marking them at a 50% off discount.
One Work from Home Stock Towers Above the Rest
The age of the cubicle has come to an end, for better or for worse.
Over the past few weeks, multiple business giants, including a favorite of mine Microsoft Corp. (MSFT), have declared that working from home is the new normal. Hundreds of thousands of employees, if they are able, are now indefinitely working from the comfort (or noisy discomfort) of their own homes.
That’s great for the companies, sure. Bit of a money saver, since they don’t have to keep the lights on back at corporate.
Buy This Bruised Company Before It Rebounds to New Heights
This work-from-home tech stock is bruised and beaten. Share values keep sinking and now, more than ever, is a fantastic time to buy in.
Own the Whole Market for Less than A Tank of Gas
Welcome back from the long weekend! I hope it was a great one for you, but after a weekend of sun it’s time to get back to work making trades and, better yet, making money. The steal I have for you today is a one you could grab for less than a tank of gas […]
All Good in the Hood – A Robinhood Opportunity
The main thing I’m watching, right now, is Robinhood Markets Inc. (Nasdaq: HOOD), more specifically, how HOOD is trading in light of comments from SEC Chairman Gary Gensler claiming that the elimination of payment for order flow was “on the table.”
If the phrase payment for order flow (PFOF) is new to you, it won’t be for long.
PFOF is how discount brokerages such as Robinhood, Fidelity, Schwab, and TD Ameritrade can provide commission-free trading.
