Imagine! At an age when some people give up hope of making real money,
Buffett was just getting started on the fortune he controls today.
And, that's why I'm here to say it's never to late to start investing… especially when you consider we are at the cusp of something huge… A massive shift from Growth to Value…
As you know tech stocks like Zoom, Netflix, Tesla Pinterest and many oth... ››› more
Most retail investors have never heard of Walter Schloss…
But he racked up one of the best investment records in history over his 40year career as an investor.
It's a record, few have managed to beat!
After all, he managed to compound his investments 16% year on year from 1955 till he died in 2012.
And it was why Warren Buffett named him one of the great “Super-Investors”!

Zeder is a little investment holdings company on the JSE. For years it was a core shareholder in Pioneer Foods (acquired by PepsiCo). It also holds a number of other interesting agricultural businesses as well…
But the company's share price is down 62% in the past five years.

There are many economic signals that can accurately predict a recession.
A few weeks ago, I wrote about the “inverted yield curve”. It's a very strong predictor that economic growth will contract in the short-term.
Rapidly rising oil prices are another excellent indication that recession is hovering just over the horizon.
Historically speaking, high inflation combined with low unemp... ››› more
As the war between Russia and the Ukraine continues to dominate headlines, we're starting to see a realignment of the global order. The US, and its allies in Europe, are driving the push back against the invasion.
You may find this astonishing (especially if you only get your news from US and European media outlets) but they're finding little support in the rest of the world. South America, Afr... ››› more
It's been a tough start for equity markets this year. Last night the Dow fell more than 600 points, which is the worst decline yet in 2022. And that's saying something. As I warned in November last year (near record highs for the tech-heavy Nasdaq) higher inflation numbers will put pressure on growth stocks.
The Nasdaq composite fell another -2.9% last night. That means the index is now down -1... ››› more
Tax Free Savings Accounts (TFSAs) are one of the most underappreciated investment vehicles in the country. So, it's rather difficult to understand why most people still don't use them. They're one of the only tax efficient vehicles that come with almost no negatives.
What is a TFSA?
It’s an investment vehicle in which all income or growth on investments held inside are tax-free. This includ... ››› more

Q “Last Wednesday you mentioned the 5 Satrix ETFs you're mainly trading. I saw that recently they launched another Satrix ETF called the CAPI… Can you please explain what the ETF does and if you're looking at trading it in the future?”

Did you hear?
Some unfortunate crypto investors/traders lost everything.
And that's not hyperbole.
In just under a month, one crypto exploded 83,000%. Only for it to erase all these gains just a couple of weeks later.
So what happened?

The most important news is often the easiest to miss.
Why?
Because for a story to be truly important, it usually needs to be about something that is both long lasting and/or has exponential characteristics.
Most of what really affects your life is long-term exponential trends.
A terrorist attack using aeroplanes may make for a spectacular news story, but the long-term improvement ... ››› more

It's the first crypto-linked exchange-traded fund (ETF) in the US market. And it had an immaculate debut - with $1 billion in volume on the first day.
That makes BITO's debut the second-most actively traded ETF launch in history!
Off the back of the launch, bitcoin rallied over 60%.

In case you've been living under a rock, Bitcoin hit an all-time high of $67,000 last week. And if you've been reading Trading Tips, this should be of no surprise…
In 2020, I predicted Bitcoin would rally from $10,000 up to $24,442.
And on 18 May, when Bitcoin was at $42,700, I made a prediction that it would rally to $73,000.
You would probably think that I would sell ... ››› more
Over the last few years, many people have asked me to assist them in making offshore investments.
Traditionally investors have looked to the developed world, such as the United States or Europe, as the premier “offshore” investment destination. Spectacular returns from stocks like Amazon, Facebook, Alphabet and Netflix have fuelled the desire to own a little slice of US tech.

According to Fundsdata, it's ranked #1 in the Multi-Asset Income Fund category for returns over the past year.
It's up over 13%.
On the face of it, that doesn't sound like much.
But it's around DOUBLE the returns you would get from most income investments (Money Market, Income & Interest-Bearing Funds) today.

Even with the right markets, time frames, systems, rules and ideas…
Trading is just not playing out you the way you thought it would.
It's not growing your portfolio at the rate you wished…
It's taking forever to get right…
It's overwhelming with which strategy to choose…
From my experience this is because of one main factor.
