Ken Fisher is a snake oil salesman. His performance is mediocre at best. Any conventional analysis of his returns proves that as many mass marketers of investment advice, you’d be far better served owning 2 or 3 ETF’s, with lower fees and better risk adjusted and absolute returns.

I have read many financial books, and found Fisher's book very hard to read. Not saying he's not a quality manager, just wasn't fun reading his latest book.

This is one of the best portfolios here. I would put some Philips (PHG) and Garmin (GRMN) in it.

I read his book "The Only Three Questions That Count." It is the best book I have ever read on stock market investing.

I haven't read his book. Could someone explain his approach to stock picking in a sentence or two?

In his recent book Fisher says he doesn't own the stocks he picks in Forbes do to restrictions but owns others stocks in the sector. The other stocks listed here I assume are taken from required disclosures.

02.09.10 | 17:15 PM Asked by Larry in Dallas

A. While I am sure there are various
reasons for a sell off of any particular
stock, there are two things worth
mentioning:

1. Day traders: One of the rules common
to day trading is to be all cash at the
end of the day. As a result, many day
traders cash out of their trading
positions toward the end of the day so
they are ready to go back to the battle
the following morning.

2. I do not know that this would be the
last 30 minutes, but margin calls could
potentially cause some selling if it is
needed to make up any shortage in the
margin (in other words, if you are
required to hold 15% and you could
borrow 85% the value of a security, and
the stock price change during the day
made it to where you were borrowing 90%,
then some shares would need to be sold
to make up the difference).

I hope that helps... I am sure others
can shed far more light than I.
