Earning My Advanced Degree
The Fundamental Trends website is my classroom. I’ve just re-upped my subscription for a third year and I plan on being a lifelong member. It’s the only service that I use and it’s paid for itself many times over. I’ve always been a better saver than an investor, but Kirk is changing that. I’ve learned two priceless lessons 1) how to pick disruptive investments at value prices; and 2) why it’s important to manage risk through asset allocation. His weekly lectures in Friday’s Webinar are a class I never cut. Thank you, “Professor” Kirk.
Binocular Boy
I remember first being drawn to Fundamental Trends when I read the Getting Started documents and thought “This guy thinks a lot like me.” Kirk is opinionated, rational, outspoken and maybe even a little brash, but he makes a lot of sense. I like the way Kirk has a long-term focus (“secular trends”) and in the years that I have been following him I sometimes feel like he’s looking at the same horizon as the rest of us but has a pair of binoculars because he can see beyond. I enjoy his candor, appreciate his insight, and look forward each call.
Herding Cats
This extremely diverse group of enthusiastic newbies and experienced market hands is a handful for any commentator to handle. The Margin of Safety cautious types and the aggressive trader wannabes can be found here, largely free of troll types. Kirk has the personality to suffer the naive question and take no nonsense while getting across his views and opinions on the market in an entertaining way. Without his steadying overview, I would lack the confidence to take positions and play them out. I have had to read some and pay attention to help educate myself. Highly recommended.
Long time subscriber
I have “known” Kirk a few years, on MW and Fundamental Trends, and I find his insights compelling, and actionable. have had a ten-bagger based on his advice, as well as other doubles in the past three years. The weekly webinars are a treat, and the core 4 makes a lot of sense to me. I am widely diversified, but focused, in my portfolio, based on his advice. I am all in (pretty much). I particularly like his energy/oil perspective, and would like to hear more about recent action, as the sector seems to have had trouble lately. An update on thinking would be appreciated.

Kirk is a very astute observer of the markets and the economy. He translates this into investing ideas that are very profitable.

Straight foward, useful information that will make you a lot of money, Fundamental Trends will increase your wealth and confidence in navigating the markets.
