Healthcare & Biotech Expert

Marc Lichtenfeld is the Director of Research for Access Research Group and Healthcare Specialist for White Cap Research and White Cap Report’s mid-month issue called Xcelerated Profits Report.
After starting out as a trader at Carlin Equities, Marc moved onto the contrarian Avalon Research Group as a Senior Analyst. He also obtained his NASD Series 86 & 87 licenses (required for all sell-side analysts). At Weiss Research, he co-managed the Real Wealth Portfolio and beat the S&P 500 by 17% over a six month period.
Marc joined the team following a successful spell as Senior Columnist at TheStreet.com. A contrarian investor by nature, Marc loves to shoot holes in conventional thinking and take profits where nobody else is looking. He’s broken several major stories on biotech companies and his investment approach blends thorough fundamental research with the timing tools of technical analysis.
He’s currently in the final stages of obtaining his Chartered Market Technician credential.

More from Marc Lichtenfeld
What was the first dollar you ever earned?
Shoveling snow when I was 9.
What’s been the most satisfying dollar (or dollars) you’ve ever earned?
It’s a tie. There was the $300 I made buying my first stock, when I was 22 – I bought 50 shares of Harley Davidson at $18 and sold it a short time later at $24. I thought this stock market stuff was going to be easy. The other one was being paid by Don King to ring announce one of his shows.
What’s your favorite way to make money?
Finding stocks that Wall Street has not yet discovered or misunderstands is one of my favorites.
What’s the best investing advice you’ve given or ever heard?
Zig when others zag.
