These Stocks Made So Much Money!

This will be a short edition of the Rude.

That’s because I want you to watch this critical video on Paradigm Press’ YouTube Channel. I sat with my good friend, tech expert, and retirement savior, Ray Blanco.

Ray’s picks this year have been breathtakingly good. When you measure a stockpicker’s returns, it’s essential to remember two legendary investor takes.

The first take is from George Soros, the greatest trader ever, before he started doing his Ernst Stavros Blofeld impersonation. Soros once said, “It’s not whether you’re right or wrong, but how much money you make when you’re right and how much you lose when you’re wrong.”

Ray has shot the lights out with his winning picks and the ones that haven’t cost little capital.

The second is Charlie Munger, who once said, “It’s remarkable how much long-term advantage people like us [Warren Buffett and Munger] have gained by consistently avoiding stupidity rather than trying to be overly intelligent.”

You do NOT need to understand the science behind tech and biotech stocks to profit from them. Leave that to Ray. You can see how lost I am in this video when Ray enthusiastically spews his incredible inventory of scientific knowledge. I’ve got no idea what he’s talking about. As the Aussies say, “I’ve got a face like a beaten favorite.” It’s ok. Ray’s got us.

I’ve listed the four stocks below, with their charts, so you can follow along with the video.

VKTX

Ray recommended VKTX when it was trading at around $11. I bought it then and watched it rocket to $99 before falling off the pace. I eventually sold my position at about $78. That’s a seven-bagger, or a 600% return! Ray’s pick changed the landscape of my retirement, and I’ll forever be grateful.

And who knows, this stock may have more to offer in the future. We might just get back in at a later date.

IBRX

ImmunityBio was another great pick of Ray’s. I doubled my money in this stock.

ASTS

Disclosure: I still own ASTS and have no intention of selling anytime soon.

Ray told me about this stock when it was trading at $2.50, and I waited for it to move. Unfortunately, it moved so quickly in eight days that my buy price was $9.45!

Despite my awful entry price, I’m currently up over 45%. I’m targeting a $35 price for this stock, though I think it can run into the triple digits in the next 18 months.

NNE

Disclosure: I still own this stock and have no intention of selling it anytime soon.

The world needs nuclear energy, and this stock has it. 

Again, I got in well after Ray recommended the stock ($13.10), yet I’m still up 72.24%!

This could be another multi-bagger winner.

Wrap Up

So, watch this entertaining and informative video on YouTube. And if you believe in the potential of Ray’s Catalyst Trader, take the next step and sign up on Paradigm Press' webpage.

The future of your investments could be brighter than you think.

Ray changed the face of my retirement. I know he can do the same for you.

The US Treasury is trying to suppress the cost of borrowing. The new Fed Chairman has spent his first months in office insisting markets should set prices themselves. Something has to give.

When Zohran Mamdani tries to cap grocery prices, Wall Street calls it socialism. When Scott Bessent tries to override the price of money, Wall Street calls it market management.

Nobody is moving the New York Stock Exchange to Dallas tomorrow. That misses the point. Wall Street is doing something more cautious and potentially more consequential: building a second harbor before it needs one.

George Custer charged a force he badly underestimated. Scott Bessent may have just made the same mistake with the largest bond market on Earth.

Open your brokerage account and look at your portfolio. Legally speaking, almost none of those shares are actually yours.
