Jim
Collins is the editor of OTC
Insight®. Jim Collins began his
career as a mutual fund manager,
then founded Insight Capital
with Lisa Miller to provide
money management services to
institutional and retail
investors.
OTC Insight® (OTCInsight.com) is a monthly
publication which focuses on Nasdaq
growth
stocks, and is a by-product of
the research that Insight
Capital Research and Management,
Inc.® uses to select stocks for
their managed client portfolios. A subscription
also includes access to a
hotline, updated every Monday
after 5PM, focusing on events of
the previous week, outlook,
attractive stocks, and news of
companies in their model
portfolio.
OTC Insight® attempts to identify the best performing, quality, though
inefficiently-priced over-the-counter (OTC) stocks and provide easy-to-follow
advice based on Jim Collins' experience working for a large mutual fund
company and an advance investment advisory department of a major bank. Jim
Collins combines three
analytical techniques to select stocks
and manage portfolios. These techniques include computer screening of several thousand
stocks on a regular basis to ensure
that they miss nothing worth considering, and proprietary quantitative
screens to identify those stocks with the highest alphas and lowest standard
deviation of return. The second
analytical technique is fundamental analysis of sales and earnings growth
and P/E ratios. Jim Collins also eliminates penny stocks and unproven companies, as
well as companies with a history
of management that lacks integrity. The
third analytical step is performance
analysis. This step judges the relative
strength of a stock by ranking it from
1 to 99 with 99 meaning a stock has
outperformed 99% of all other stocks
for the last given time period. (Investor's
Business Daily notes this ranking
system in a column headed RS on their
stock price lists.) The
end result is a Buy List of the top 100 stocks listed in order of
attractiveness for that month.

There are quite a variety of investment
newsletter services available to investors
today, which achieve a decent track record.
In
reality, however, many newsletters
have not translated well for most investors that
subscribe to them.
The reason?
Money management. Without the proper position
sizing using the right money management tool,
you are only dealing with half the formula for
success.
Let's face it: if there was one consistently
successful investment newsletter, then the word
would spread rapidly, and that one investment
newsletter would have more customers than the
population of China. The reality is that there
has never been such a success. Why? Because
in the final analysis, 8 out of 10 investors
fail due to one simple reason:
position sizing.
The
majority of investors who subscribe to
investment newsletters think that the process is
as simple as "Just give me your
recommendations and let me become as successful
as you are". Unfortunately, as money managers
know, entry points account for very little in
the overall success of a portfolio.
