You could start your own hedge fund or maybe get a job one.

“Emperor of all Maladies.”
An absolute "must read"--- especially the history of breast cancer treatment.

You can get it on audible and listen to it. That's how I did it. Listened while working out.

Capricor, my zodiac killer of a stock, has thrust my portfolio to first place with a mind-boggling 54.17% YTD gain!
It's especially mind-boggling given that it is still January. At this rate, you'll have $3,000,000 in August and you can take a nice summer vacation! :-)

BTW, astrological signs are used for almost everything from perfumes to cars, but the one sign that gets left behind is Cancer.

1/31/14 Contest update
For the S&P 500, it was the first January loss since 2010. But despite a bit of harassment by the Bears, biotechs managed to finish the month in positive territory. At Friday’s close, the Contest median was up 16.10% YTD (vs. up 17.54% YTD a week ago), while the Nasdaq Biotech Index actually held its ground, finishing the week up 8.41% YTD (vs. up 7.64% YTD a week ago). However, the Nasdaq Composite Index closed down -1.74% YTD (vs. down -1.16% YTD a week ago).
Although my own portfolio did get clawed back, it still held the Contest lead with 44.75% YTD gain. JB118’s portfolio, up 30.79% YTD, took second place, with ROCKY's portfolio, up 30.66% YTD, behind by a hair in third place.
At Friday's close, all 46 Contest portfolios continued in the black but a mere 39 of the 46 were now beating the NBI.
Below is the Top Ten list. Also below are the Top 5 & Bottom 5 Stocks ranked by % Gained and % Lost for the week.
Portfolio adjustments: none
(All corrections, especially adjustments for splits, greatly appreciated.)
Have a concussion-free Super Bowl weekend biotechies!
Peace & good health,
Bulba
