Why am I not surprised to see yet another book about Starbucks? The New York Times just reviewed it here. Woo hoo. It’s amazing how many of these books there are now—see for yourself—these have all come out in the past year:

November 2007
1348X/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1197958947&sr=1-1″>Starbucked

September 2007 How Starbucks Saved My Life

April 2007 Grande Expectations

January 2007 The Gospel According to Starbucks

December 2006 Finding the Next Starbucks

And during the same time, how has Starbucks (Nasdaq: SBUX) done?

What does this prove? Two things. 1. The publishing industry is incredibly slow (SBUX did perform well years ago) and 2. People are sentimental and the stock market doesn’t care

Disclaimer: No positions, just proud that I ripped on SBUX hardcore on CNBC back in March.

Who Is Timothy Sykes And Why Should I Care?

See Tim's full bio HERE. Tim turned a few thousand dollars into a few million by taking small gains time after time on hundreds of volatile penny stocks, discovering that his trading strategy, while consistently successful, works best for those with smaller accounts.

Determined to teach others this PennyStocking trading strategy (learn more HERE), he went back to his original $12,415 roots (already $33,956 even though the stock market has crashed) to show everyone how to turn thousands into millions, even while having a life (somewhat) and making plenty of mistakes.

How Can I Consistently Make Money In The Stock Market?

Hard work, Determination and Know How.

Hard work to learn how the greatly misunderstood niche of penny stocks provides opportunities every now and then on which you should pounce.

Determination to seek those probable profits out and know how in order to actually profit from them.

Long story short, wait for stocks that are extremely volatile - for whatever reason - and then aim to take small profits (between 10 and 50% within a few hours, days or weeks) here and there, either from betting on higher or lower prices (yes, you can make $ betting on lower prices, it's called Shortstocking (learn more HERE).

Why Penny Stocks?

As Tim explains in several ALL-NEW instructional DVDs (see them HERE) and in over 900+ blog posts, penny stocks are the most hyped and corrupt niche in the entire investment world. These two qualities make them the easiest to profit from (legally) because the vast majority of people who play penny stocks are suckers and all-around ignorant people. If you have any intelligence whatsoever, you have a clear advantage and it's like playing basketball against mental midgets.

Where Do You Find Stocks To Trade?

This is the #1 FAQ (see more HERE) and it is answered in THIS blog post.

Of course, that's just a brief introduction - to receive a full education, there is Tim's book An American Hedge Fund which is the story of his remarkable rise and lessons learned.

To truly increase your odds at profit, Tim has designed an entire set of detailed instructional DVDs, covering all the variables that amount to over 24 hours of instruction (see them all HERE)!
