Fellow Investor,

The message I'm bringing you today is only for those who are at the most privileged level of lifetime membership.

It concerns a natural companion to your current Zacks Ultimate Lifetime benefits.

In addition to receiving all of our real-time trading signals and market commentary from all of our portfolio services, you can now go a step further to get top stock picks.

You can access even more strategies, and also find and evaluate stocks on your own . . . more quickly and more easily than you may have ever imagined.

In fact, I'm going to show you how to profit from several winning strategies that have not only beaten the market, but have multiplied it many times over.

Zacks Stock Strategies Blow Away the Market

This has happened year after year. Decade after decade. Through good markets and bad, including 3 recessions.

As you can see in the chart above, since the year 2000, the S&P 500 has averaged +7.7% per year.

That's a rather good return on your investment.

So good, in fact, that your broker or fund manager has probably not even come close to matching it.

And yet, stock selections from our private strategy, called Value Method 1, averaged not +7.7% per year but +44.2% per year.

  • Small-Cap Growth jumped to +44.3%
  • Filtered Zacks Rank5 soared to +48.4%
  • Technical & Fundamental Analysis Winners reached +50.2%
  • Big Money Zacks leads them all with +56.7%

In fact, our Top 10 stock strategies outperformed the market nearly 5X over with an average gain of +36.8% per year.

And remember, we're not talking about cumulative performances.

These are average gains PER YEAR.¹

How was this accomplished? And what can it mean for your stock portfolio?

I'm about to let you in on the secret.

It's something that a relatively small group of investors are using as their "private money tree."

In fact, Bill from Carson City, Nevada tells us:

"This is like a license to print money."
- Bill C.

So what is this phenomenon that Bill is referring to? It's a lot simpler and a lot easier to use than you may imagine.

In fact, it's just about as easy as "point and click."

Research Wizard

We call it the "Zacks Research Wizard" because, as shown earlier, its results are . . . pure wizardry.

With this unique stock-screening software, you can instantly cut through a universe of more than 8,000 stocks to a manageable, investable handful of gems.

For example, you can click the "Screens" button and then click "All-Style Strategies."

Then click "Filtered Zacks Rank5."

In an instant, you'll see today's 5 recommended stocks from that strategy.

These tickers are worth looking into because, since the year 2000, Filtered Zacks Rank5 has averaged an eye-popping yearly return . . .

+48.4% Per Year
Since 2000

And that, my friends, is only a fraction of what you can access.

With the Research Wizard, the latest stocks from many proven, market-beating strategies for every style of investing are only a few clicks away:

Aggressive Growth, Growth & Income, Technical Analysis, Value, Momentum screens, and more.

Yet this is only the beginning of what the Research Wizard can do for you.

You can also tweak these pre-loaded strategies or create your own.

Choose from more than 650 different data items, including Price, Volume, Sales Estimates, EPS Growth, P/E, Sales, Surprises, Zacks Rank, and literally hundreds of other categories and items.

Just click your preferred data items and out pops a list of stocks.

In other words, you won't have to sift through thousands of tickers.

With Research Wizard, it's easy to detect the rare hidden gems that other investors miss.

Think of it.

Even if you only considered Zacks Rank #1 picks, there would still be more than 200 stocks to choose from.

But starting now, you can focus in on small, constantly updated lists of only the strongest stocks.

The best of the best.

Just point and click. You're in control.

A "Time Machine" for Investors.

What's more, the Wizard lets you "backtest" strategies and see how they would have done in previous markets.

Some users like to zero in on market conditions in the past that are similar to what's happening now.

You can tweak one of our built-in strategies.

Or you can create your own, backtesting its formula to see what works and what doesn't.

Imagine finding out how your strategy performs BEFORE you invest in its picks.

At a glance, the backtesting tool gives you answers to questions like these:

  • 1. How did the strategy perform in up markets and down?
  • 2. How smooth was the ride? Was it volatile, or did it produce consistent gains?
  • 3. How did its returns compare to benchmarks like the S&P 500 . . . the Dow Jones . . . or the NASDAQ?
  • 4. What was the strategy's win percentage during different holding periods?
  • 5. Which specific stocks did it produce in the past?

And then when you're happy with the strategy, you can instantly focus on the list of stocks it is recommending today.

In my experience, if you're not backtesting, you're just guessing.

All in all, this feature gives Research Wizard users a substantial advantage, and frankly some of our members would prefer that we keep it under the radar.

"No benchmark stands a chance."

"If too many people discover the Wizard and start to use it, I'll lose a very valuable competitive edge."

- Maurizio P., Europe

"Fantastic product, please make sure it doesn't get too popular."

- Marco G., Addison, TX

With all due respect to Maurizio and Marco, I'm now offering you a special chance to share their enthusiasm.

For a limited time, you are invited to join the Research Wizard at a sharply reduced one-time cost.

Today, the savings are unique, profound, and exclusive for you and your group of Zacks members. And your access to the Research Wizard will be permanent.

One of the great things about the Wizard is that it's connected to the constantly updating Zacks database.

So it never goes out of date.

At any time and in any year, you can call up the latest stocks from our best strategies. Or use the latest data to create strategies of your own.

You should also know that the Research Wizard is backed by an unprecedented performance warranty.

If you aren't satisfied with its market-beating performance, you can get your money back. Details.


Research Wizard Performance Warranty

We here at Zacks are officially putting our money where our mouth is. We are so confident that our approved backtested strategies will help you beat the market that we are backing it up with our limited 100% Money Back Performance Guarantee. This includes the approved strategies that Zacks has created AND any approved strategies created by you the customer that was backtested with the Research Wizard.

To read more about the Performance Warranty, please see the details below. But please don't let the legal jargon blind you. We simply want to ensure that you gave our service a fair try and that you can supply documentation to back up the claim. Here are the specifics:

Research Wizard clients may receive a 100% refund of the subscription fees paid during his/her current subscription term if the client's portfolio following the approved backtested strategies (Zacks generated or user defined) under performs against the S&P 500 during the holding period of the stocks. All of the following criteria must be met to qualify for the refund.

  • If the client chooses to trade a Zacks created strategy, he or she will submit by e-mail to the Research Wizard Performance Warranty Department (rwwarranty@zacks.com) or their Research Wizard representative, which strategy or strategies they will trade. Once a reply e-mail with approval is received, the Performance Warranty will commence.
  • If the client wishes to trade his or her own user defined strategy, he or she must submit the strategy (strategy file) to the Research Wizard Performance Warranty Department or their representative, along with how they plan to rebalance the portfolio, i.e., 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, etc. Zacks will test the strategy to determine its level of success. Zacks reserves the right to not approve a strategy that tests poorly or that is deemed to be untradeable. Once the client receives approval from Zacks via e-mail that his or her strategy has been approved, the Performance Warranty will commence.
  • The subscriber must have bought and sold a minimum of 20 stock recommendations from the approved strategy. (These trades all must come from the same strategy. For example, 5 trades from strategy A and 15 trades from strategy B does not meet the 20 trade qualification. They all must be from the same strategy.)
  • Trades must be executed within a 24 hour period of the approved strategies rebalancing period.
  • The client must save a copy of the strategies recommendations (print out or electronic file).
  • The client must be a subscriber for at least 3 months.
  • The client must show full brokerage account details for the period in question.
  • Performance will be based on all stocks traded (i.e., purchased and sold) in such period that were approved recommendation at the time. And a refund will be given only if the aggregate performance (i.e., realized losses or gains) of such stocks as measured by the relative rise and fall in market price is less than the performance of the S&P 500 during the time period that these stocks were held in the customer's account.

After 3 years the opportunity to get a refund will expire. If you meet the preceding criteria, then please send your claim with full documentation to:
