What is Louis Basenese working on right now?
This 51% Move is Normal… Happens All the Time
I sent the “Buy” alert at 9:45 a.m. And by 11:00, the stock climbed 51% – a “textbook” play for us. Every stock I recommend comes with a minimum target gain of 48% – a rate of return that doubles your money extraordinarily fast. We hit this target gain almost every time. Quite often, we exceed it.
Subscribers who followed my instructions on August 12, for example, had a chance to lock in a pair of doubles – gains of 116% and 175% – in a single day. You’ll love it when this happens. To get my next set of instructions, here’s a “gracious” deal.

What was the first dollar you ever earned?
Can’t remember. But it probably involved a bet with one of my friends. In terms of the first dollar I earned that was reported on a W-2, it was flipping pizzas in Southern California.
What’s been the most satisfying dollar (or dollars) you’ve ever earned?
Every last one I earned as a minor before I was subject to taxation.
What’s your favorite way to make money?
While I’m sleeping. I’m a big believer in income investments. And nothing beats waking up to find out another check was deposited into your account.
What’s the best investing advice you’ve given or ever heard?
Be humble trading the markets or be humbled trading the markets.
