zflk blitzkrieg paradigm

Hmn? Seems to me this man is missing
something. He makes lots of money but something seems wrong.
I'm trying to focus on it. It's right there at the edge of my
consciousness. If only I could grab hold of it. Oh wait! I've
got it! Here's that teensy little flaw which seems to have
eluded him:

He Doesn't Have A Life!

Should you read his book? Yeah, probably if
you are fanatically interested in the stock market. He's got
some excellent insight and strategies. However, compared to
what I'm about to share with you, it amounts to manufacturing
a watch several times a day just so you'll know what time it
is.

Those are the two extremes: The long-term
investor and the day-traders. Then, there's the vast middle
area of investors who trade a few times a month, based on the
advice of their brokers (none of whom understand the stock
market), advice they get from magazines, newsletters,
newspapers, friends, relatives and so on. Financially
speaking, this is sort of like "dabbling" in brain
surgery as a part-time hobby.

None of these mindsets work for me.
What I want is to invest in only those stocks which
offer me a legitimate chance of going up 50%
or more in one day... and... I want to do it in
such a way that I myself, can legally do something which will make it likely to happen. Do you think it would be difficult to figure out
how to do this?

Actually, it was a piece of cake.

Here's a true story which'll help you
understand the first part of it: My second wife Nancy and I
once spent weeks analyzing all the data for five years' worth
of races at the Ascot Racetrack in Northeastern Ohio. (I think
it's gone now.) We did a "mathematical regression
analysis." In other words, we worked backwards
to find out what factors were most influential in determining
whether a horse was likely to be a winner in any particular
race. Then, we had to determine which factors indicated
whether we should or should not place a bet on any certain
horse.
