By now, most of you have figured out that I love calling readers every day and milking them for ideas on how to improve my service. Often, they think I am an imposter, a telephone salesman, a machine, or an algorithm. It's only after listening for a few seconds that they recognize my voice from

I went to the local branch of Wells Fargo Bank (WFC) yesterday, and I was appalled. The bank occupied the most expensive corner in town. It was staffed by a dozen people, all of whom spoke English as a second language. Ask even the simplest question and they had to call a support center and
Ho Hum. Another week, another financial crisis. And why did I rush back from the bucolic mountain pastures of Zermatt? To come back to the smoke-laden skies from the Northern California forest fires?

One of the goals of the Diary of a Mad Hedge Fund Trader is to identify major changes in the global economy early enough to get investors into the impacted shares early. The death of the car is one of those trends, and it is still early, very early. This is a very big deal.

With Bitcoin probing new lows in its 9-month-old bear market, I am starting to get deluged with questions from readers as to whether it is time to buy. My answer is always the same. I wouldn't touch it with a 10-foot pole. I wouldn't even buy it with Donald Trump's money. Bitcoin was a great

I'll never forget the first time I met Walt Disney. There he was at the entrance on opening day of the first Disneyland in Anaheim, Calif., in 1955 on Main Street shaking the hand of every visitor as they came in. My dad sold the company truck trailers and managed to score free tickets for

I can't tell you how many times I have been woken up in the middle of the night by an investor who was sleepless over a position that was going the wrong way. Gold was down $50, the Euro was spiking two cents, or the stock market was enduring one of its periodic heart attacks.

The team fought their way up two flights of stairs in pitch-blackness, dispatching several Al-Qaida fighters along the way. A tall figure emerged in the green glow of the night vision goggles. It hesitated. Two shots were fired, and the body hit the ground. That was how Navy Seal Team Six member, Mark Owen, described

In its latest earnings report for Q2 2018 Netflix definitely disappointed. Revenues came in at $3.91 billion compared to an expected $3.94 billion.
