- I finally received a copy of the "free" newsletter advertised here in
- misc.invest. What I received was an old issue, meaning it contained
- nothing of current value, so I got what I paid for. Nothing.
-
- Furthermore, the guy wants $360 per year to receive additional issues.
- This is an exceedingly high price considering the newsletter is brand new
- with no track record, and its editor is a former software engineer who
- himself is new to the business.
-
- He's written a computer program that analyzes financial data and generates
- buy/sell recommendations, and his newsletter is essentially nothing more
- than the output of his computer program.
-
- Maybe I missed something, but my own "buy/sell recommendation" is don't.
- If you want to spend $360 on investment periodicals, there are better
- ways to allocate your money than subscribing to "The Aggre$$ive Trader"
- by Ken Deen.
