What Others Are Saying
| "Bernie Schaeffer is a widely recognized expert on investor sentiment, market timing and index options trading. The chairman and CEO of Schaeffer's Investment Research has a fierce contrarian streak, meaning his investment picks often clash with the Wall Street herd. In reference to Bernie's stock picks for 2003: 'Bernie hit a perfect bull's-eye!'" |

"Hindsight being 20-20, we now know that the best stock market strategy for 2003 would have been one heavily weighted toward gold and technology, particularly the small-cap variety. The Nasdaq Composite was up almost 48% year to date, while the Amex Gold Bugs Index was up 66% and the Russell 2000 by about 45%.
With impressive foresight, just such a portfolio was the recommendation of Bernie Schaeffer heading into 2003. On the strength and uniqueness of that call, the chairman of Schaeffer's Investment Research in Cincinnati is this column's "Guru of the Year" for 2003." |
