Stock Analyst, Portfolio Manager and Option Strategy Coach

I turned $820 into $442,618 in just 15 months by trading stocks. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. My results are not typical. Studies show that 90% to 99% of short-term traders lose money. * As a former finance professor with a Ph.D. in Finance, I provide trading and asset management service. I also provide lessons for effective and profitable swing trading strategies using options . With my blend of academic rigor, a proven track record of successful trading, and dedication to client success, I look forward to contribute to your investment goals and foster a long-term professional relationship. I help you grow your portfolio with lowered risk and develop skills with shortened learning curves whether you are an institution or individual investor, a new or experienced trader, a teenager or septuagenarian. I co-developed and sold a cutting-edge AI trading bot to one of the world's largest investment funds. Created multiple award-winning software solutions, one of which was prominently featured in a college computer textbook when I was still a student. Published research findings in the area of investments in top-tier academic journals. Won second place in a 5000-player poker tournament within a mere month of learning Texas Hold'em poker. Being awarded a U.S. patent for a math-learning invention. I am a volunteer classroom teacher in inner city elementary and middle schools, in both regular class time and after-school programs. It is one of the ways for me to give back to my community. I tutored one former student who raised their SAT Math score from 660 in October to 780 in December in just ten 50-minute sessions. * In comparison, if one would invest the same amount of $820 in the S&P 500 with dividends reinvested and inflation adjusted for 70 years ending December 2022, one would have $90,243. Not bad for people with the patience and the money to put aside for a long term. However, my tradings in 15 months generated a total return of 53,878%, almost five times of that if invested in the S&P 500 for 70 years and my communities do not have to wait for 70 years to receive tax revenue from my trading.
