rules works. If you follow those seemingly simple but at times hard to follow
rules, you will make money.”
Herb M., Michigan, Individual Investor
“It was only when I started properly applying the IBD sell rules that I realized
the power to not only cut losses short, but stay away when conditions are not
good for making money. A day without IBD is a day of missed opportunity.”
Dennis H., Florida, Retired Broker
“William O’Neil taught me the two rules that form the cornerstone of my
investing plan: (1) keep your losses small, and (2) average up, never down.
Those two simple rules have kept me out of a lot of trouble. When I have
strayed from them, it inevitably cost me money. Thank you, Bill, for all you
have done for the average investor.”
Peter M., California, Executive

Investor Education at Its Best

“I have gone to great lengths to learn about investing. I attended business
school as an undergraduate and graduate student, and worked for a retail
brokerage firm and for a small-cap research firm that supported institutional
clients. Even after all this experience, it wasn’t until I read How to Make
Money in Stocks that I began to understand how to succeed in the market.”
Andrew M., New York, Vice President

“My students were participating in the Stock Market Game and struggling
with losses. Then they started using Investor’s Business Daily. IBD helped
my students reverse big losses and win third place in the Stock Market
Game. IBD has helped motivate my students to get great information in an
easy-to-use format. It’s given them the tools to research and make invest-
ment decisions, and become their own independent investors.”
Stephen D., New York, High School Teacher
“I’ve been a subscriber to Investor’s Business Daily since 1991. This is
investor education at its best. I fired my broker two weeks after I got IBD. I
told him I didn’t need him anymore. I trade over 150,000 shares each year.
I used to have no savings, but because of IBD, my net worth is well over 1
million dollars. I run it as a business. I’m just an average guy, I’m not a
genius, but I study a lot and use IBD. That’s how I succeed. It’s more than a
newspaper; it’s a working document.”
George G., Georgia, Pilot Trainer

“My stock life before IBD had no direction. I had no idea there was anything
to learn. Life after IBD opened my eyes, and my mind. I don’t ever expect
to stop learning!”
Marilyn W., Ohio, Retired
