13 Predictions For 2009

Even though I believe investment predictions to be a complete waste of time, I understand how many dumb people there out there so I will acquiesce…woah too big a word for most of you–I’ll give in–this time around:

1. 90-95% of traders will lose money

2. 70% of mutual fund managers will fail to beat the S&P 500

3. There will be a ton of great trading and shorting opportunities due to fraud, manipulation and hype…the corresponding stock price reactions easily predictable and actionable if you’ve watched my instructional dvds

4. My % return will dominate that of the S&P 500, the fund managers who fail to beat it and the traders who continually fail.

5. I’ll continue to dominate the Covestor performance rankings

6. My seminar with Brian Shannon won’t happen, not in February at least…probly towards the end of the year, after we’ve proven our worth even more (you can help this by contacting me and showing your interest or signing up HERE, you’ve got a few days left until we just kill it and refund those who’ve paid)

7. Cramer will be right between 40-50% of the time

8. The media will continue bringing on and featuring ANALysts, fund managers and talking heads with dismal to no track records, hiding behind the BS legal disclaimer “Past performance is not indicative of future results” (tell that to any MLB/NBA/NHL all-star/highly paid attorney/doctor/coach/consultant etc….this is truly not an industry but a JOKE of an industry

9. My instructional DVD sales will surge far past the few hundred grand I’ve made in 2008 due to my continued success, fast loss cutting, growing subscriber base and TOTAL BUSINESS & TRADING TRANSPARENCY that blow away any and all bloggers/traders/gurus/fund managers/investors/authors/anybody else in this JOKE of an industry.

10. As my operation grows and becomes more mainstream, I’ll become more mature, respectful and helpful to even the dumbest of stock market participants.

11. The S&P 500 will not move up or down enough during the year to be worth any poor person’s time, 5, 10, 20, even 30% on a $5,000 or $10,000 account can’t compete with any one or two months of PennyStocking…and yet the vast majority of poor people will continue to play this index guessing game with no edge/experience/odds whatsoever.

12. No stock covered in depth by the mass financial media will move up or down enough during the year to be worth any poor person’s time, 20, 40, 60, even 100% on a $5,000 or $10,000 account can’t compete with any six to nine months of PennyStocking…and yet the vast majority of poor people will continue to play these stocks with no edge/experience/odds whatsoever.

13. Fewer DVD special sales like the one for TIMalert subscribers only that ends at midnight tonight!

  • oh yeah and trader monthly/doubledown media will go under and i'll be involved in buying their assets for pennies on the dollar, suck on it randall lane, shoulda listened to my approach when u had the chance

    http://timothysykes.com/2008/05/07/hey-randall-...
  • tbohen
    You beat me to it Jay, I was going to say the same thing.

    If number 10 actually happens I'll never visit this blog again!!!!!!!
  • Yeah, my strategy is finally picking up a bid. Time to get out of the long financials and into the market neutral.
  • Bjg
    Couldn't really say it better myself. The fucking idiot CNBC talking heads are truly a joke. I also have a predicition...the markets will move up and down throughout the year. Hey, quick question for you Tim. Obvioiusly % returns get different once one's portfolio grows to larger levels and liquidity becomes an issue so my question is....Does there come a point where you do you margin/leverage because I've read numerous times on your site that you prefer and/or don't use leverage??
  • Tim claims everyone in this industry is a joke. I think the joke of the game is himself and his subscribers who bought into timalerts, crappy dvds, and seminars.

    What a joke! Save that money for whore and coke is way better than listen to this moron bashing every other person who does not buy into his shitz. I mean it his stuffs are pure gutter. Next year he'll end up trading pink sheet and otc since most of these stocks are already beaten down.

    Tim is nuthing but a wallstreet guy who target 99% desperate investors who loss money so he will continue taking money selling garbage. His analysis is not analysis but a pathetic personal insults.
  • hector
    Did you see SRS today? it dropped 9% plus today, that is on top of the 9% drop yesterday.

    2 days 18% drop ...did SRS met your "10% - 30% range" drop? YES

    That was a free stock pick from me because i feel sorry for you

    I won

    Keep selling your little dvds, i hope, so you can have money
  • hector
    wallstreetscam,

    I completely agree with you...a scam
  • hector
    if you need a penny stock pick, feel free to ask me, i give you one every day

    FOR FREE
  • no i dont like trading pink sheets, and i love how u guys think i'm a scam when all i do is detail all my trades and have testimonials coming out my ass...seriously, pick your enemies better and stop wasting my time
  • and no SRS didnt meet my qualifications because while it moved enough, it wasnt due to predictable hype/manipulation...have fun with your guessing games, u will never enjoy the same % returns year in year out that i do and thats why every poor person int he world should be trading my way, not yours
  • iL Torello
    Wow Tim you're amazing! From a French internet cafe?!?!? Happy New Year Tim!
  • Omaggio
    This is a great post....lol...
  • You never cease to amaze me with your posts. One thing I'm sure of , the whole acting like an ass is not an act. It's amazing that a stand up, class act like Brian Shannon would share a stage with you
  • "I understand how many dumb people there out there so I will acquiesce…woah too big a word for most of you–"

    Isn't there a word missing?

    If you are going to amaze people with your fancy wordsmithin', shouldn't you at least get the sentence structure correct? It's funny to get insulted by someone about using big words when they can't even get the rest of the sentence right.

    Are the stupid people asking for too much here??
  • vento, u're too dumb to even get the joke, i love it!

    ali, no, u can kiss my ass and judging form how many comments u leave on a blog u supposedly hate, u're already doing a good job

    shannon amen brother!
  • younggunz
    haha, Ali=pwned. Timmay FTW!

    Its funny seeing people piss and moan about someone and say he sucks but can't get past his 240%...I can't believe how many cry babies show up when Tim says some "mean" thing. So they start off with a, "You're such a jerk you meanie" Then proceed to say crude shit like, "You're an ass...cocker sucker...blah blah...the sand in my snatch makes me cranky"
  • I belive most predictions will be true. We will see. Tim defintely has a niche in penny stocks.
  • Mr. Cell
    Congrats Tim on a great year. You will have much sucess in 2009 there is no doubt. I don't know how you keep up the energy but god bless you and stay true to who you are.
  • BJG
    Snipe scalping is a great strategy to implenment as well to go along with ur penny stocking, however Tim, I don't see why you don't ever fuck with larger more liquid stocks that have just as much predictable behavior. I understand you like to play those sniper under the radar penny stocks that no one fucks with however scalpin w/ margin you can pick off fuckin monster shit day in and day out and not necessarily have to wait for "great set-ups" . Don't get me wrong, nothing wrong with multi-hundred percent returns but why not thousand percent returns.
  • yeah, what is the joke, I don't get it
  • frankie
    lol. wow. 8 plugs in a 13 point list. funny stuff.

    happy new year.

    btw - might want to lay of the cream puffs, champ. looking a bit chunky. and with all that money, can't you afford a nicer pair of specs? aren't you better than lenscrafters....?
  • no i'm a cheap jew
  • Pestimus
    Tim, do u think the economy will go into a depression like Nassim Taleb said? what is ur view on it and how should one be prepared and is the stock market still functioning during a depression?
    thanks
  • i could care less about dpression, recession, progression, justt ake it one pump at a time...my biz will probly be better in a depresison cuz people will be poor and desperate, there'll be tons more penny stocks and manipulation will run amuck!
  • Fckridu Din
    haha, wallstreetscam.
    if i was tim, why would i share this with other ppl to make a couple bucks on my blog? i'd be trading full time with real money and making millions.. who cares about a frickin blog - no top traders bother with this shit - look at those guys from Centaurus hedge fund - they keep their shit quiet.. why bother with a blog?
    i'd rather stick with wareen buffet - hes the man - buy and hold baby - all the way!
    BUY AND HOLD!!!!
  • Fckridu Din
    I know TIM you post your trades, but when u do so, it's already too late for us to make money like you!!!!

Who Is Timothy Sykes And Why Should I Care?

See Tim's full bio HERE. Tim turned a few thousand dollars into a few million by taking small gains time after time on hundreds of volatile penny stocks, discovering that his trading strategy, while consistently successful, works best for those with smaller accounts.

Determined to teach others this PennyStocking trading strategy (learn more HERE), he went back to his original $12,415 roots (already $58,000+ even though the stock market has crashed) to show everyone how to turn thousands into millions, even while having a life (somewhat) and making plenty of mistakes. Currently he is the #1 ranked trader out of 25,000+ on Covestor)

How Can I Consistently Make Money In The Stock Market?

Hard work, Determination and Know How.

Hard work to learn how the greatly misunderstood niche of penny stocks provides opportunities every now and then on which you should pounce.

Determination to seek those probable profits out and know how in order to actually profit from them.

Long story short, wait for stocks that are extremely volatile - for whatever reason - and then aim to take small profits (between 10 and 50% within a few hours, days or weeks) here and there, either from betting on higher or lower prices (yes, you can make $ betting on lower prices, it's called Shortstocking (learn more HERE).

Why Penny Stocks?

As Tim explains in several ALL-NEW instructional DVDs (see them HERE) and in over 2000+ blog posts, penny stocks are the most hyped and corrupt niche in the entire investment world. These two qualities make them the easiest to profit from (legally) because the vast majority of people who play penny stocks are suckers and all-around ignorant people. If you have any intelligence whatsoever, you have a clear advantage and it's like playing basketball against mental midgets.

Where Do You Find Stocks To Trade?

This is the #1 FAQ (see more HERE) and it is answered in THIS instructional DVD.

Of course, that's just a brief introduction - to receive a full education, there is Tim's book An American Hedge Fund which is the story of his remarkable rise and lessons learned.

To truly increase your odds at profit, Tim has designed an entire set of detailed instructional DVDs, covering all the variables that amount to over 24 hours of instruction (see them all HERE)!
