Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Do you recommend risky investments such as options, commodities, penny stocks, and futures?

A: Our main recommendations are based on using stocks and mutual funds as the foundation for a portfolio. While it is possible to use options to decrease a portfolio's risk, they are usually used in such a way as to increase risk. Occasionally we recommend a few options, but these are suitable only as a small part of a portfolio and are best left to experienced, risk-taking investors. We prefer investing in a safer manner, with diversified portfolios of stocks and mutual funds.

Our Primary Stock Portfolio's 1,952.1% return
(31.9% per year) was attained without the use of options and we believe options are unsuitable for most investors. You can see the typical stocks that make up our Primary Stock Portfolio by visiting our Past Recommendations section.
