Success Stories

I have been trading the equity markets with many different strategies for over 40 years. Terry Allen's strategies have been the most consistent money makers for me. I used them during the 2008 melt-down, to earn over 50% annualized return, while all my neighbors were crying about their losses.

August 9, 2025 Saturday Report

August 9, 2025 Saturday Report

Dear Member,

The Composite stretched its winning streak to nine weeks, though barely. Boomer’s Revenge continued to impress, pushing its winning streak to 10 weeks. Rising Tide was a disappointment, as strength following Disney’s earnings on Wednesday failed to carry through to the rest of the week.

This week, I talk about my continued frustration with Disney and where we might turn next. Be sure to check it out.

Enjoy the report and have a great weekend.

Happy Trading.

Jon L.
