What Do I Get Out Of It?
John Thomas, aka the Mad Hedge Fund Trader, has spent the last 50 years combing the world for traders and investors worth listening to. For the 26th Summit he has brought in the pick of that crop — people who make money in any market conditions, pandemics and wars included. Sit with them for a few days and they will sharpen your earning power for years.
Pick of the Harvest
Mad Hedge Traders and Investors Summit speakers teach the strategies that make money in every season of the market, not just the easy ones. Never lose sleep again worrying about the safety of your retirement portfolio. Best of all, attendance is FREE.
Every Row of the Vineyard
We walk every asset class, hunting the best longs and shorts around the world: stocks, bonds, options, foreign currencies, precious metals, commodities, energy and bitcoin. Decades of experience, pressed into a few hours of learning.
Learn to Read the Season
Buy low, sell high. Everyone talks about it, but few can pull it off. Knowing when a market is ripe — and when it has already turned — takes decades of volatility to learn. Take our speakers’ hundreds of years of experience and graft it onto your own.
Win $100,000 in Prizes
As each speaker presents, we hold a lottery among registered participants, giving away trading and investment services for FREE. You could be the lucky winner of a $12,000-a-year one-on-one mentoring service.
The Host
John Thomas
The Mad Hedge Fund Trader
John Thomas has been reading markets since 1974: Tokyo correspondent for The Economist and the Financial Times, director of Japanese equity derivatives at Swiss Bank Corp, and founder of the first ever dedicated international hedge fund — a top performer he sold in 1999. Fifty years of that, and he still collects vintage wines. He knows exactly what separates a good year from a great one.
That is why the lineup matters. John hand-picks every speaker: industry insiders who have spent their entire lives in the financial markets and who make money in any conditions. Across four days they hand you a hyper-targeted read on how markets will trade into 2027, and which trades are still worth picking. Sector selection will be everything. Invest a few hours of your time and it should multiply your performance for the rest of the year, if not your life.
