Unlock Premium Alerts & Portfolio Performance

As a Paid Subscriber, you receive:

1. The Weekly newsletter

This is sent on Sundays. The Weekly includes the portfolio's performance including the performance per stock, 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.

You can find previous Weeklies here.

Here is a sample Weekly,

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.

Here is a sample trade alert,

3. Access to my portfolios

On the right-hand panel in the Home tab, you can find the portfolios under ‘Paid Membership’.

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.
