I’ve just launched a new edition of my book Naked Trader – edition 6. It’s been five years since the last edition and I thought I would answer a question many have asked: “What new have you learned over the last 5 years from talking to investors?” 1. I learned it’s important to have a […]

I’m working hard (well that’s what I tell my publisher) on a new edition of Naked Trader which should be out this September. A chapter I’m currently writing is titled: ‘Stories Vs Numbers.’ What are you rambling about Burns? Us humans love stories. That’s why people buy or read newspapers online. As a journalist from […]

Well, I don’t know, what do you think I am some kind of guru or something? However here are 4 shares I think could soar in 2024. 1. Good Energy It provides, well, good energy. Renewable electricity and energy. A bit like the Waitrose of the energy world. Despite some nice rises in 2023, it’s […]

I have a new book about to be published, The Naked Trader’s Book of Trading Strategies. It’s available on Amazon from July 18th. There are loads of strategies to suit most traders/investors, except those of you who insist you can play the Forex casino and expect to win. The house always wins. I thought I’d […]

I notice one thing I always tell traders is the hardest thing for them to do but reaps the most rewards overall is.. If you have lost money on a share three times, do not get involved with it again for at least 3 months, preferably six. And…stop watching shares that you lost money on. […]

I wish I knew! But it will be fascinating. Will covid be on the way out and lead to good times with pent up savings being used on holidays leading to higher share prices? Perhaps travel and airline companies will take off? Maybe Easyjet, IAG, and Jet2com will leap. Or will higher energy prices and […]

I was thinking about which question I get asked the most about investing. That got a little easier recently as we ask for questions in the “Naked Money” podcast. I reckon this one comes up all the time: “This company I hold issued a fantastic trading statement/results so how come it went down so much. […]

Before I buy a share I usually do my Dragon’s Den test. That is, I pretend to be a Peter Jones or a Deborah Meaden before I buy anything. I pretend the company is presenting itself to me. Would I buy into it if I was Peter or Deborah? If you’d like to know more […]

Although bitcoin and crypto is top of the headlines for valuation hikes, one surprising sector of the market is shooting up, mainly unnoticed by investors. That’s probably because this sector of the market does sound incredibly dull and dry – indeed if you could sum the sector up as a person – Keir Starmer. I […]
