What You’ll Receive as a Free Subscriber
Here’s a breakdown of what you’ll receive in your inbox:
1. The Weekly newsletter
This is sent on Sundays. The Weekly includes the portfolio's performance and my thoughts for the week. The thought can be a stock idea, an opinion on the market, an investment philosophy, personal finance, or anything I believe would be of value to you. Everything is free except for the performance of each stock, which is under a paywall at the bottom of the Weekly.
You can find previous Weeklies here.
Here is a sample Weekly,
2. Occasional stock idea
A piece that would detail why I like or dislike a certain company, including a dissection of their strategy, stock valuation and risks.

As a Paid Subscriber, you receive everything Free Subscribers get, plus
1. Weekly stock performance
In Sunday Weeklies, I will include the performance of each stock in the portfolio. This will be at the bottom of the Weekly, behind a paywall.
2. Real-time buy/sell alerts in my portfolio
Whenever a position is added or sold in the portfolio, I will post the trade. I tend to send those notes between 10 am and 2 pm. The note will have a rationale behind the thesis. Those positions tend to stay in the portfolio for 6 months to 1.5 years, but I have had some that closed in 2 months and some that have been in my portfolio for 7 years (and are still open).
You can find my historical trade alerts here.

3. Access to my portfolios
On the right-hand panel in the Home tab, you can find the portfolios under ‘Paid Membership’.
Below is a sample portfolio,
4. One in-depth stock idea per month
Once a month, I will send a detailed investment analysis for a company I am adding to the portfolio.
Here is a sample deep dive that I did for TSMC (7,400 words) TSM 0.00%↑ ,
Below is the performance of the stock picks since launching this newsletter.
The paid plan pays for itself. Based on my average annual return, a $10,000 portfolio could cover the subscription cost for the year in just two weeks. Remember that this is just my estimate, as past performance is not indicative of future results.
I look forward to sharing my insights with you. You can email me anytime at george@beatingthetide.com. I read all the emails and aim to reply within 24 hours.
