The Global Stock Picker (GSP) Performance V. Global Market Benchmark Indexes as of March 7, 2008


Below, I have charted the performance of our GSP Model Portfolio v. the major benchmark indexes in the United States and the U.K. since the very first day of our launch on June 15, 2007 until March 7, 2008. As you can see, we are outperforming the major indexes in the U.S. and the U.K. by more than 35% and are careful planning for this global economic crisis has kept our Model Portfolio well positive in the first year of publication.




Below, I have charted the performance of our GSP Model Portfolio v. the major benchmark indexes in emerging markets in Asia since the very first day of our launch on June 15, 2007. As you can see, we are outperforming, as of March 7, 2008, the major indexes in India and Hong Kong by 6.66% and 11.96% respectively without the great rises and crashes that historically have plagued emerging stock markets.




Below, I have charted the outperformance of our GSP Model Portfolio v. the major global stock market indexes.



   

As an added bonus to our GSP subscribers, we added a currency portfolio to our monthly investment newsletter to guide our subscribers through the developing dollar crisis. I have charted the incredible outperformance of our GSP Currency Portfolio against benchmark performances of the world's major currencies as of March 7, 2008 above. The dollar's performance reflects its depreciation against a basket of global currencies, while the appreciation of the Euro and Pound Sterling reflect their performance against the U.S. dollar. Please keep in mind that the performance charts of our Model Portfolios above do NOT include the remarkable performance of our currency portfolio.



How the Global Stock Picker investment newsletter is Different Than All Other Investment Newsletters


Our methodology to choose stocks won’t rely heavily on traditional statistics that you may be used to seeing, such as P/E ratios, earnings, gross and net margins, etc because our strategies don’t rely heavily on number crunching to uncover our best picks. This doesn’t mean that we don’t take a close look at the numbers. It merely means that we use other PROPRIETARY strategies that have proven to be far better predictors of stock price performance such as the strength of money trails among banking-government-corporate relationships. Though the great majority of our predictions have been spot on so far since our launch, obviously we aren't infallible and there will be times when a prediction or two is wrong (in fact, at SmartKnowledgeU, we're not too proud to include a sneak preview of our newsletter above that contained a prediction that has been slightly off the mark so far). However, when this occurs, we take the time to explain why markets are unfolding contrary to our predictions. Furthermore, we're much more concerned in getting the long-term predictions correct versus calling every short-term fluctuations in markets correctly. Keeping both ears to the ground regarding the long-term economic outlook is much more important to making a fortune that trying to predict how the U.S. Federal Reserve will next interfere in free markets in the short-term.


For example, in a sputtering, sickly economy, illogical short-term stock market rallies manufactured by Central Bank monetary policies are only possible due to the debasement of fiat currency worldwide. In simple terms, this means that stocks can rise 6%, 7%, even 8% when valued in terms of paper currency, but if that paper currency is being debased by the Central Bank at a clip of 10% a year, then by definition, the increase in value in your stocks has actually left you poorer. Such are the schemes being imposed upon unsuspecting investors today by the world's Central Banks. At SmartKnowledgeU™ we don't believe in growth or value investing, only HIGH PROFIT investing with LOW RISK. Only after we have identified the strongest picks capable of strong double-digit annual returns using our proprietary methodology do we then pare down our top stock picks by ensuring that the numbers look fine.


The amazing strength and consistency of our proprietary stock picking strategies is demonstrated by the returns of all of our FREE stock picks distributed through our blog and free newsletters last year (again, since we started this premium subscription newsletter, sorry, our FREE stock picks will now end. In essence, all of you received one year's subscription for free already). Furthermore, if we can sort out some legal issues that accounting firms have with the use of their audited statements, we will post the audited results of our portfolios managed exclusively with our strategies sometime in the near future. As far as we know, this will make us the only investment newsletter in the world willing to post audited statements of portfolio returns achieved with the same strategies utilized to pick stocks for the investment newsletter and more importantly, achieved with substantial investments of real money.


The Global Stock Picker Strategy


Going forward, we anticipate building a portfolio of about 25-40 stocks every year. Currently we have split our portfolios into two portfolios, a Model Portfolio and a Speculative Portfolio. You can expect the Model Portfolio to contain anywhere between 15 to 25 stocks and the Speculative Portfolio to hold between 10 and 20 picks. We won’t provide you new stock picks just for the sake of providing new picks if we don’t feel that there are stocks out there that offer a compelling enough risk-reward setup. And through 2008 only, our Speculative Portfolio remains free to all of our Global Stock Picker subscribers. After 2008, we will be running this portfolio as a separate subscription investment newsletter.


Learn what makes the SmartKnowledgeU™ proprietary investment system so unique. Although we reserve the details of how we select the stocks that comprise our model Global Stock Picker portfolio for our Platinum Level members only, the Global Stock Picker will definitely enable you to profit from ongoing volatility in global stock markets while many people lose great sums of money. And this is NOT JUST TALK. In August, 2007 and at year end 2007 and the beginning of 2008, major global stock markets plummeted. How did our Global Stock Picker model portfolio perform? It continued to rise! In fact, our model portfolio gained another 6% in November and December as other stock markets were significantly falling. As you can see from the middle chart in the top row, sometimes we select stocks that are coiled and ready to explode much higher. From the bottom two charts, you can see that sometimes we select stocks that seem to be headed downward and that nobody is discussing. Unlike the mainstream investment firms that advocated buying financial and housing stocks in September, 2007 because they believed that they had bottomed, our proprietary system allowed us to know that these types of stocks would plummet further and we avoided them. Over the next couple of months, stocks in these two sectors plummeted across the board by 20% to 50%. However, our stocks soared.


The SmartKnowledgeU™ Global Stock Picker newsletter is a great supplement to our online coursework. We believe that when combined with our SmartKnowledgeU™ online investment curriculum, you will receive the most value from this service.

Since we launched The Global Stock Picker in June 15, 2007, despite many daily corrections in global markets in Asia, Europe, South America and the U.S. of 2% to 3% in August, 2007 and the worst opening of global stock markets in decades in 2008 (in fact the U.S. S&P 500 had the worst opening since 1929 in 2008) our Model Portfolio IS STILL STRONGLY POSITIVE as of March 7, 2008. Despite the fact that in the 8-1/2 months since I launched my Global Stock Picker investment newsletter, we have experienced two of the worst investment periods in global stock market history and have had to contend with extremely difficult and volatile global markets, my Model Portfolio has returned 19.24% and our Currency Portfolio has returned an amazing 55.50%!

Please click here to see the returns of the Global Stock Picker as of March 7, 2008.


The Global Stock Picker will provide you with stock picks from developed and emerging markets annually over the course of 12 monthly newsletters, each 12-15 pages in length (but often running more than 25 pages!). Furthermore, we'll provide you with a "Model Portfolio" as well as a "Speculative Portfolio" for those willing to take a greater risk for the chance of some truly legendary gains. We’ll further provide commentary on market trends if we believe corrections are imminent as well as commentary on asset trends. We have no limits and no boundaries when it comes to seeking low-risk, high-reward stocks. We search all developed (including U.S. markets) & emerging markets including Russia, Brazil, China, India to provide you with the best stock picks in the world. This doesn't mean that we will necessarily have stocks from all these countries in our portfolio but we are constantly looking everywhere to provide low-risk, high-reward opportunities. Attention all U.S. Subscribers: Please note that all stocks discussed in the Global Stock Picker can be purchased on U.S. stock exchanges.


We have read that many of our competitors continue to offer portfolios that solely focus on U.S. stock markets even though those portfolios yield some of the worst returns of their 5-10 different newsletters. They have even admitted that it is a poor product but since the most people buy it of all their products, they continue to offer it. Consider this analogy when comparing the Global Stock Picker investment newsletter to other more narrowly focused investment newsletters. If you were building an NBA all-star team, and confined your picks to 25% of the league versus considering 100% of the league, which team do you think would yield the much stronger team? This is the difference between a domestically concentrated investment portfolio and one that considers the entire world for opportunities. Simply speaking, since we think it's quite foolish to only consider the market of your home country, whether the country you live in is the U.S., India, China, Hong Kong, Brazil, Germany, the U.K., or any other country. We won't offer an inferior newsletter here just because that's what people will buy. We're here to tell you one thing and one thing only - what the best opportunities in the stock market are anywhere in the world.


Each year, the portfolios we build in the Global Stock Picker will be heavily overweighted to a few asset classes that we believe are firmly positioned to outperform. Why?


The only way to build wealth is through concentration in the best performing asset classes every year, not through diversification. In addition, we’ll provide guidance as to the best times and price ranges to buy our favorite stock picks as well as when it may be time to take profits. We'll even tell you what stocks we believe you should overweight in your portfolio. As far as we know, we're the only investment newsletter to date that offers this much specific guidance. We’ll be sure to include many picks we think have excellent chances of multiplying your money many times over.

A Better Value


Many of our competitors offer 5 or more investment newsletters. The reason they do this is simple. They want to cast a wide a net as possible to catch as many fish as they can. That way, they are likely to always have one newsletter that is performing well. If they receive complaints from disgruntled subscribers of one of their newsletters, they can always say, "We're sorry that you've lost money with such and such service, but why don't you try our Newsletter A. That one has done quite well for our subscribers." It's a sales strategy designed to keep disgruntled customers from leaving. But think about this. If you designed five or even ten different portfolios, don't you think that you could have at least one that was performing tremendously? The fact that investment newsletter publishers offer such a wide array of different newsletters is a load of BULL. If they knew what they were doing, they would just offer one or two, no more. This is precisely the reason we only offer one newsletter.


We provide you with one investment portfolio with only our top picks so there's no need to look around and have to ponder if you should go for the "value" or "growth" or "domestic" or "international" portfolio. We have only one criteria and one criteria only when it comes to building the Global Stock Picker portfolio. Is the stock undervalued, possess explosive upside potential, and present a low-risk, high-reward opportunity at its current price? Our Global Stock Picker portfolio will contain approximately 20-35 stocks in our favorite asset classes, though this number can vary depending upon the opportunities that exist in the world at various points in time. As a subscriber, you will receive 12 monthly newsletters with new stock picks each month as well as commentary on the best times to purchase some of the stocks in our base portfolio of stocks. Furthermore, as an added bonus, we'll throw in special interim Global Stock Picker editions from time to time so that you don't miss out on opportunities that arise in between our regular issues.



Believing That Foreign Stocks Are Risky is a Myth Better Suited for Your Grandparents, Not the Modern, Savvy Investor


The belief that “foreign” stocks are risky is a myth that many leading global investment firms have sold to the public because they don’t know how to pick foreign stocks and are poor at doing this. Their inability to do so does not make it risky. All stocks in all markets, developed or emerging, are risky if purchased at the wrong price points and not sold when huge profits are made. We strongly believe that many of the best stocks, if not all, that offer the best chances to double, triple and even return five or six times your money trade outside of the United States. Consider this point. Not even considering emerging markets, but just among developed stock markets, the U.S. stock market has NEVER been the best performing stock market in the last 20 years. Not once. Enough said about why you need to think globally when investing and why you should have already been thinking globally for the past decade.


If you are one of those investors that is nervous about buying outside the “U.S”, then you should know that in 2006, the companies that comprise the wider major U.S. stock market index, the S&P500, earned more than 50% of all their revenues outside of the United States. In fact,, many American companies now earn upwards of 70% of all of their revenues outside the United States. If almost every American company is looking outside the United States to drive the majority of their growth, sales and profits, shouldn’t you be doing the same as well? Though many investors continue to insist on buying only American companies, this is a big mistake as they will continue to leave some of the largest profits on the table.


Whether You're American or Not, Our Global Stock Picks Should be a Cinch to Purchase for Most Everyone


Furthermore, if you are American, all of our stock picks can be purchased on American stock exchanges so do not fear. If you are not American, for most, buying foreign stocks is no harder than setting up an offshore account online on the internet (for example, by the 3rd quarter, 2007, e-trade will enable investors to directly purchase stocks in these following six markets: the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Canada, Hong Kong, Japan, and the United States), but of course, be sure to check the regulations in your country regarding the purchase of foreign stocks.
