One of the best stock pickers of all time died last week just a few blocks away from me down here in Miami…I met the man once and I’ll tell you guys a little story in a blog post tomorrow, but for now the Miami Herald has an EXCELLENT obituary summarizing his achievements below.

Looks Like The End For This Great Trading Stock [STOCK OBITUARY]
December 16, 2010 at 8:30 am by Timothy Sykes
$1 million isn’t isn’t cool…you know what’s cool…this is cool Given the news that our long-time favorite trading stock InfoLogix, Inc. (IFLG) got acquired for $4.75/share up from its previous closing price of $1.80, I’m gonna anticipate about 50 emails from PennyStocking Silver subscribers and TIMalert subscribers by saying YES I’ve seen the news, no email necessary, thank you….no play. If you want to contact me, please oh please let the questions be about these bad boys Now a takeover PR doesn’t guarantee this stock to be deadmeat from now on, as we learned in the case of HIGHLY questionable Supatcha Resources Inc (SAEI), but this deal involves respected company Stanley Black & Decker, Inc. (SWK) which is a $10+ … Continue reading
Mourning The Loss Of Dr. Ari Kiev, One Of The Greatest Trading Pscyhologists EverEver
November 30, 2009 at 7:30 am by Timothy Sykes
Last night when I heard the news from ZeroHedge, I tweeted (follow me on Twitter!) “Very sad day Dr. Ari Kiev died http://bit.ly/4y1mpW one of the greatest trading psychologists ever, see my video w/ him http://bit.ly/14Fn56 and understand Ari was not only a great trading coach but also a great guy…check out the video we did together on CNBC (the content of which is why I have never been asked back on CNBC….apparently my bright idea offended many of their $500 million/year in profits viewers)
We Must Remember Those Who Have Fallen…

It’s a very sad day for me as it’s my duty to inform you that BPUR, one of the most hyped and manipulated “miracle product” piece of crap biotech penny stocks has filed bankruptcy. I know many of you knew old BPUR very well as it was headed by some of the greediest, most unethical and, more importantly, most incompetent teams in recent memory, and as you can see from some recent photos of the victim below, BPUR shares the same fate as too many of this “lost generation”:

"You Blew It Up! Damn You! Damn You All To Hell!" The Penny Stock Version
July 20, 2008 at 11:13 am by Timothy Sykes
For all of you who haven’t read my book An American Hedge Fund or watched my PennyStocking instructional DVD Package, back in March, I wrote about CYGT being the stock, the sole reason, as to why my hedge fund lost 35ish% over 2 years in 2006 and 2007 (see blog post HERE). Tough, tough, tough, tough, tough lesson, but it made me more cynical, conservative, an infinitely better teacher and even more determined to stick to my core trading strategy, a strategy that has yet to produce a huge loss, especially when I stay true to its quick loss cutting principles. Anyway, that bankruptcy filing was pretty much the end of the story for me and the 1 million+ shares … Continue reading

We've Only Just Begun: A Memorial To BodyTel Scientific, Inc. (BDYT)
May 26, 2008 at 10:22 am by Timothy Sykes
This Memorial Day we commemorate not only the men and women who perished in service to their country but the pumps and dumps that inevitably perish in service to their manipulators. Each year thousands fall, so let us celebrate the life of the pump known as BDYT, who’d only just begun to blossom, with a song I wrote: We’ve only just begun to surge, Stock spam and promises A check for the promoters and we’re on our way. And yes, We’ve just begun. Before the doubters we fly, So many market makers to choose We start our upticking and learn to run. And yes, We’ve just begun.
