The Next Warren Buffett?

Last weekend, during the annual Berkshire Hathaway investor meeting, Warren Buffet announced his retirement as CEO of the legendary investment bank.

Look at my post below:

Buffet also announced that he would make Greg Abel the new CEO by this year’s end.

This is big news.

Warren Buffet is affectionately referred to as the Oracle of Omaha.

He started investing when he was just 11 years old. And during his 60-year tenure at Berkshire Hathaway, the company’s share price spiked 5,502,284%.

That makes for a compounded annual gain of 19%. Far outperforming the S&P 500 … Look at the image below:

The question on everyone’s mind is: Can Buffet’s successor maintain a similar annual return?

A 19% compounded annual gain is pretty substantial. Especially when the larger market only returns 10% when dividends are included.

But what If I told you, I know a trader with a compounded annual gain that blows Buffet out of the water …

This trader:

  • Uses the same patterns over-and-over again trading the hottest stocks in the market.
  • Started with $7,500.
  • Is still active and teaching other traders how he trades.

Maybe Buffet should have shopped around a bit before announcing a new CEO.

Insane Account Returns

This trading strategy is accessible for anyone.

It’s especially helpful for small-account traders looking to grow their account’s value quickly.

And you don’t have to be perfect …

For example, I’m not that good of a trader, and my compounded annual gain is still 27%. I’ve been using this process for over two decades.

But it’s nothing compared to Jack Kellogg.

Jack is a shining example of what’s possible in the market with this trading strategy.

Since starting in 2017 with $7,500, Jack has grown his account to $19.2 million, a compounded annual growth of 166%!

All these years later, he’s still using the same patterns.

But his position size has grown. Look at a recent trade example below:

The Key To Jack’s Performance

I use the same strategy as Jack, but we have different profits …

See, I never had a mentor to teach me this trading process.

Instead, I’m the one who stumbled upon it.

I started trading in 1999. And by 2017, my trading process was fully cemented and on display for traders to study.

Jack Kellogg took the initiative to study this process relentlessly. He had a path to follow. That’s how he’s managed such big returns over the years.

Comparatively, my trading still suffers from the lack of a mentor. I’ve been burned too many times on the wrong plays. A mentor could have steered me away from those setups.

Jack realizes the importance of a trading mentor. And in recent months, he’s even begun to teach his own students.

You can follow Jack as he plans trades on the next hottest stock!

Learn Jack’s process and use it to track his next trade:

You don’t have to be Warren Buffet to profit in the market.

Instead of worrying where Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) is going in the next few months …

And instead of pouring through earnings reports, theorizing political catalysts …

Focus on a trading strategy that benefits small-account traders.

  • We use the same patterns over-and-over again.
  • The trades can take as little as a few minutes. So we don’t have to worry about our position over the long term.
  • And the stocks are cheap. You could buy just one or two shares in the beginning if you want.

Jack has already outperformed my trading profits with my own strategy.

And he’s still a young guy. Jack is only 26.

When he turns 96 years old, and retires like Warren Buffet, everyone will wonder:

“Where was I in 2025 when Jack was still gaining steam? If only I had learned his trading process.”

Now  is your chance.

Cheers.

The available research on day trading suggests that most active traders lose money. Fees and overtrading are major contributors to these losses.

A 2000 study called “Trading is Hazardous to Your Wealth: The Common Stock Investment Performance of Individual Investors” evaluated 66,465 U.S. households that held stocks from 1991 to 1996. The households that traded most averaged an 11.4% annual return during a period where the overall market gained 17.9%. These lower returns were attributed to overconfidence.

A 2014 paper (revised 2019) titled “Learning Fast or Slow?” analyzed the complete transaction history of the Taiwan Stock Exchange between 1992 and 2006. It looked at the ongoing performance of day traders in this sample, and found that 97% of day traders can expect to lose money from trading, and more than 90% of all day trading volume can be traced to investors who predictably lose money. Additionally, it tied the behavior of gamblers and drivers who get more speeding tickets to overtrading, and cited studies showing that legalized gambling has an inverse effect on trading volume.

A 2019 research study (revised 2020) called “Day Trading for a Living?” observed 19,646 Brazilian futures contract traders who started day trading from 2013 to 2015, and recorded two years of their trading activity. The study authors found that 97% of traders with more than 300 days actively trading lost money, and only 1.1% earned more than the Brazilian minimum wage ($16 USD per day). They hypothesized that the greater returns shown in previous studies did not differentiate between frequent day traders and those who traded rarely, and that more frequent trading activity decreases the chance of profitability.

These studies show the wide variance of the available data on day trading profitability. One thing that seems clear from the research is that most day traders lose money .
