In my mind there are only two people with PROVEN track records in the stcok market:

Peter Lynch
Warren Buffet

Here is one of Lynch's books:

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0671891634

We know he knows what he is doing as he got about 20% on average over 20 years as manager of magellan

And we know Warren Buffet knows what he is doing as he runs the most expensive stock in the world (never split it).

99.9% of people that talk about the market do not have a PROVEN record. They may CLAIM they do, but lynch's and buffet's are a matter of public record. Other can fudge the figures after the fact - lynch and buffet couldn't.

Oh - and they both say alot of the same stuff.

my 2 cents
Warren Buffet is the man.
