How a Massive Trade Inspired My Stock-Picking Breakthrough – And Why It's Important Right Now Editor’s Note: These days, the word “retirement” doesn’t seem to elicit pleasant thoughts. In fact, most folks I know truly believe they’ll never be able to retire. They expect they’ll have to keep working for the rest of their lives in order to survive – and who could blame them?
Over the past several years, we’ve seen the cost of living skyrocket. Grocery stores hiked prices on just about everything but especially staples. Rents across the nation have surged to near-unsustainable levels, forcing tenants to pay premium prices even for the most modest of spaces. Not to mention, in the wake of COVID-19’s destruction, most folks’ savings accounts were wiped out. And with the cost of living so severe, replenishing those funds is quite a difficult task... especially as a grid-locked labor market weighs on workers’ ability to earn higher wages.
It’s no wonder why retirement feels out of the question for so many. But it doesn’t have to be.
My colleague Jason Bodner, a former Wall Street insider and top quantitative analyst, has spotted an overlooked sector that he believes is set for triple-digit gains. His system has a track record of identifying stocks ready to soar. So, if you’re looking for a different way to achieve your post-work dreams, click here to watch his latest broadcast all about this recently discovered “Retirement Accelerator Window.”
Today, we’ve invited Jason to share more about this important opportunity. Read on for more details! We’ve all experienced defining moments. Sometimes we realize it right away, like graduating from college – not to mention paying off student loans – getting married, the birth of a child. Other times, they become clear in hindsight. My defining moment as an investor played out for a month, but it all started with a phone call. It was 2010, and I was heading a trading desk at Cantor Fitzgerald, the blue-chip New York investment bank. My job was to match big institutional buyers with sellers. My caller was a friend who managed money at another big bank. He wanted to buy shares of a stock (we’ll call it KDQ) for one of his big clients. Within a few minutes, I found someone who was selling 100,000 KDQ shares – about $2 million worth – and offered those to my friend. He snapped them up immediately. “Do you have any more?” he asked. I went back to work, dug into my “Rolodex,” and by the time the trading day closed, I had sold my friend one million shares of KDQ – valued at about $20 million. That’s Big Money already. But I wasn’t even close to being finished. I sold my friend another million shares the next day. And by that point, all the money flowing into this stock was lifting its price. The same thing happened the third day… another million shares, and another bump in the price. By the fourth day, I knew this was really big. My “foraging” mission for KDQ shares continued for about a month. At the end of that stretch, I’d sought out, mopped up, and sold my friend every spare share of KDQ that I could find – around 20 million in total. The stock had surged 70% – and people were noticing. It even made the headlines on CNBC. I had no idea who the buyer was. I just knew it was my friend’s client. A few days after I’d finished, I discovered that a $20 billion hedge fund had acquired more than 15% of KDQ. Through me and some of my competitors (who’d been tasked with the same mission), this fund had snapped up an aggregate 50 million shares of this stock. And the price had soared. If Only We Knew The “KDQ Affair” showed me the huge gains that were there for the taking – for investors who’d also bought the stock while that hedge fund was buying those millions of shares. Anyone who owned KDQ on the day of the first order – or who knew what was happening so they could buy it – would have gained 70% in just four weeks. But how could we have known? Hedge funds and institutions are super-secretive by nature – and do everything in their power to keep their buying quiet. This is Big Money we’re talking about – the money that actually moves stocks – so these players work to diminish the “price-increase effect” even as they keep buying shares. They spread their purchases out by buying in chunks – big chunks, but still chunks – over days or weeks. The fact is that some people do know. Shadowy Wall Street operators are fully aware of these huge trades before they happen. And they profit off that knowledge. The rest of us? We’re on our own. At the mercy of all these big operators. But not anymore. I didn’t get rich off that trade. But those four weeks and the whole KDQ Affair were a transformative event in my life. That experience put me on a mission – one that culminated in my analytics-based system and my proprietary Quantum Score that evaluates the health and potential of more than 6,000 stocks. And it does so every day the market is open. It’s a system that lets me spot the footprints of Big Money investors on their own KDQ-like missions. Those footprints are not visible to most other investors – but they are to me. This system gets me and my readers into these stocks early – when the Big Money buying is just getting started. It’s legal, predictive – and powerful. Which is why it took years to create and master. Now We Do Know After facilitating that trade, I threw myself into the research. I analyzed every piece of data I could find. I asked the smartest people on Wall Street how they decided which stocks to buy... and how they went about buying them. Over more than 20 years investing, I’ve learned how to spot these giant trades that play out over days and weeks. When a Big Money player embarks on a buying spree, it means demand for a stock is spooling up. Since supply is holding steady, there’s only one direction for the stock to move... up. So, how do I find these best-of-the-best Top 1% of stocks that the “whales” are buying and – most importantly – recommend them to my readers for them to make money? First, I rely on computing power. At any given time, there are more than 10,000 stocks to choose from. Some are illiquid. Some are junk. I eliminate those immediately. That gets us down to about 6,000, most of which aren’t going anywhere anytime soon. I use my proprietary “filters” – a deep-dive analysis of the technicals and fundamentals – and mix in the wisdom I’ve collected from the best minds on Wall Street. And this gets us to the Big Money. We look to see which of those remaining stocks that pass our screens are being bought by Big Money players. That’s the trifecta of investing success. Find businesses with the best fundamentals in the market whose stocks show technical strength and are being bought by Big Money. That gives you the highest odds of making money, and the highest odds of outperforming the market. Through years of using this system and back testing it all the way to 1990, about seven out of every 10 stocks it identifies were winners. These stocks also outperformed the market 7-to-1, according to rigorous back testing. A Rare Opportunity It’s critical to identify these big-potential stocks anytime. We all want to make as much money as we can with our investments. But it’s especially important right now because we are just beginning a rare stock market pattern responsible for producing big gains in the past. It’s an opportunity to accelerate profits – I call it a Retirement Accelerator Window – that is now beginning again for just the fourth time in 35 years. My powerful institutional buying system has helped uncover this huge opportunity, and it also points us to the stocks positioned for big profits. The best stocks to take advantage of this opportunity a found in a particular corner of the market that is slated for a huge rally in the coming months. I go over all the details in a brand new broadcast, including which stocks are set to outperform and the best strategy for finding these stocks set to make the most money, Click here to watch it now.
