In Just 30 Years, He Turned Every $1,000 Into $237,000
Andy Snyder|August 26, 2020
The race is on.
I made a big announcement yesterday. We’re hosting the Super Trader Rally on September 2.
It’s the culmination of our mission to lead folks to wealth through simple, common-sense research.
We’ve got the system we think can do it. We plan to tell you all about it – and how we discovered it – at the big event.
The system performed beautifully during our three phases of testing.
In all, we issued 15 long recommendations and 14 of them were winners – an amazing 93% win rate. Better yet, we saw average peak gains of 138%… in just 26 days.
Now you know why we’re so excited!
You’ll get the full details, including the unique criteria we used next week during the rally. (You can sign up to attend the free online event here.)
But first, we want to share the fascinating story of what got us to this point.
It’s quite interesting.
Our Kind of Man
You know we like books. We read a lot.
And one book we told readers about shortly after it debuted was A Man for All Markets, penned by Edward Thorp.
Thorp did a lot of things in his life.
He was a professional gambler (although what he did was hardly gambling) who beat the house in Vegas.
He was so good, he says, the Mafia tried to kill him – spiking his drink one night and rigging his car’s throttle cable the next.
Once he got his car stopped… he went on to beat Wall Street.
He was so good that some of his early admirers included Bill Gross (whom he mentored) and Warren Buffett.
But his winning ways once again caught the attention of “regulators.” As a federal district attorney, Rudy Giuliani sent his boys after Thorp.
Just like in Vegas, they found no crime.
To be sure, though, Thorp was ahead of his time.
Turn $1… Into $237
His team invented the first wearable computer… in the 1960s.
It’s what held the algorithm that helped him put blackjack odds in his favor, telling him when to bet more and when to walk away.
That’s a useful tool in Vegas. But imagine having that sort of advantage with your investments.
That’s why when Sin City finally told Thorp to cash in his chips and get out of town, he took on Wall Street – where many of the same techniques work just as well.
He became one of the great traders of all time. Over the course of 30 years, he used his strategy to turn every $1,000 into $237,000.
Not bad.
But again, this was 40 or more years ago… long before “quants” became a star niche industry on the Street.
It’s why Thorp is known as the father of quantitative investing.
And it’s why we’re going “back to the future” with the Super Trader Rally.
Over the last 30 years or so, much of Wall Street has turned to computers. The big trading houses know that computers can make smarter, faster decisions than any human.
But most everyday investors – even today – still use their old-fashioned brains to do their investing.
It seems silly. And it explains why the majority of investors can’t keep up with the market… let alone rake in the sorts of returns that will make you rich in a hurry.
If that’s you… If you’re worried you can’t keep up with the big boys… pay attention.
Thorp – who is reportedly worth some $800 million – knew that his brain couldn’t beat Vegas… but he knew a computer and some well-programmed math could.
He made it happen.
He dominated the blackjack tables and, later, Wall Street.
His story is what inspired us to do some math of our own.
Strategy Revealed
We set out to create a quant system that we could bring to the masses. We wanted a system that would let our brain wander where it may… while the math did the hard work for us.
We think we have it.
We tested it in three separate stages, and the results are clear.
It works.
We saw a 93% win rate on our long positions, raking in some tremendous gains… including doubling our money overnight.
We’ll detail the criteria we used – plus six stocks that match them right now – during the Super Trader Rally next week.
Again, it all goes down at 1 p.m. ET on Wednesday, September 2.
