Reggie Middleton vs James Cramer

 A regular reader and subscriber did the homework of comparing my subscription research to that of James Cramer's flagship subsciption service, Action Alert Plus, see Reggie Middleton on James Cramer: Marked to Market!. This is an update to that study using today's closing prices. There should not be any surprises here, unless you see how much Cramer charges for this stuff!

Reggie vs Wall Street

As many may have surmised, my team and I have blown out the results of Wall Street's biggest and most reknowned name brand brokers. It wasn't even close enough to fit in a small graph. JP Morgan failed to beat the S&P over the period that the blog has been in existence (since 9/07). The blog's research returns are 132% above the BEST performing Wall Street Broker's analyst recommendations.

  Reggie vs Goldman Sachs

Why didn't Wall Street read my post on Lehman being a yellow lying lemon? See "Is Lehman really a lemming in disguise?" and realize that this post was made on February 20th, when Goldman Sachs had a recommended price of about $55 while this blog warned that Lehman may be done for. This very similar to when I warned about the potential demise of Bear Stearns in January, when the rest of the Street had a "buy" at about $130 per share. See Is this the Breaking of the Bear?.  7 We all know how both of these stories ended. Please click the graph to enlarge to print quality size.

 If you look into my original post on performance (see "Performance!"), you can see when I recommended strong shorts on Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs, both highly contrarian views at the beginning of the year, and both returned way over 100% and in the case of Goldman, is still pushing profits. 

Reggie vs broad market and global equity indices

  Cash performance of the blog's researcg as compared to all major US and global market indices. The graph below assumes the research result to be taken as a cash index, as opposed to an actual investor acting upon the research, which would have to be done in a margin account (to short), options or swaps.

 Reggie Middleton vs Greenwich and Park Avenue

We have totally trounced ALL hedge fund indices, taking much less risk to get multiples of return. These are the results against the Barclay's hedge fund indices year to date. Please click the graph to enlarge to print quality size

 In conjunction with the date stamped, blog post map (the Actionable Research9 post), you can use the graph below to see how well my proprietary research performed in my own account on a monthly basis. This is where I may loosen up by providing a premium subscription service where I share the reasoning behind my trades and positions as it applies to the research that I release.

From a risk weighted perspective, my proprietary account has pulled even farther away from both the broad market and ALL of the BarclayHedge fund indices, far away. I have assumed much less risk to get an average of over 10x the return.  Please click the graph to enlarge to print quality size.
