“Banks have turned into gigantic gambling institutions. You never know what you own. I wouldn't touch them if you pointed a gun to my head,” said legendary hedge fund manager Bill Fleckenstein on Hedge Fund Radio.
Come join me for lunch at the Mad Hedge Fund Trader’s Global Strategy Luncheon, which I will be conducting off the coast of Antarctica on Friday, February 13, 2026. The meeting will take place on a Celebrity cruise that departs for Buenos Aires, Argentina on Saturday, January 31. I just checked, and there are still cabins available.
The cost of the luncheon will be $499.
An excellent meal will be followed by a wide-ranging discussion and an extended question-and-answer period.
I’ll be arriving early and leaving late in case anyone wants to have a one-on-one discussion or just sit around and chew the fat about the financial markets.
The lunch will be held during a 14-day cruise on the Celebrity Equinox, where I will be occupying the Owner’s Penthouse Suite. The precise location will be emailed with your purchase confirmation.
I look forward to meeting you, and thank you for supporting my research.
