First and foremost, thank you for what you do.
The small cost of this newsletter pays for itself a thousand times over. My returns mimic those of your portfolio for the year and for that I am grateful.
The only suggestion I would offer is to keep doing what you are doing. It is people like you that will help return the once storied name to Wall Street.

I just wanted to send my thanks for creating such a wonderful newsletter. It is very hard in today's world to sift the wheat from the chaff.
The reason I am reaching out today is that a few days ago John came out with a piece regarding other newsletters. I have been following you for the past few years and from what I have seen and have traded, this is by far the most valuable service that I have luckily stumbled across.

The confidence you have given me to enter the USD:JPY spot positions have returned me in excess of $1,500,000 in the last few weeks.
I'll be in California next year.
Can't wait to catch up. Dinner is on me, both times!
I know you said you aren’t retiring until you’re well into your seventies. Why so soon?
You're welcome to use this as a testimonial.
Cheers

Hi John,
I made it to Cortina on my European vacation paid for entirely by my successful trades this year from the Mad Hedge Fund Trader.
Today, we hiked to Lago di Sorapis and I am now enjoying a Dolomiti on the veranda. I will depart tomorrow to continue through the Alps to avoid the heatwave in southern Italy.
Tonight, I will be searching for a few Bond girls….but haven’t seen any yet.
Best regards,
David
I would like to say a big Thank You for presenting such an amazing event, the Mad Hedge Traders & Investment Summit.
I really enjoyed it and learned a lot of amazing insights that I never knew were possible.
I do not know if you guys have sent out the recorded copies or if these are still in the works so let me know.
Can you please send me a copy or let me know how the process of this is going as I would really like to hear some of these speakers again.
Absolute Appreciation and Wishing You All Prospering Success!
Best Regards,
Troy

It's so great having John as my Personal Investment 911. Even when he was navigating the current of his excellent Summit … it took him less than 3 minutes to answer my questions & guide me on my way. I’m underway & making hay … thank you, John.

Hey John and the MAD Team,
You really nailed and keep nailing great reversals and trends that are just beginning to deserve a watchful eye.
I'm still a bit stuck on futures, but I realize the safety in your spreads is a lot smarter...Thx for all you know and for all you do.

Your background is very impressive and intriguing. You definitely have a lot of valuable and unique experience.
I read your most recent post on activist investing and couldn't agree more. I have always been a fan of activist strategies because even under an assumption of efficient markets, activism can still generate alpha in theory.
I have also heard about how process-oriented investments, such as activism or distressed investing where you have a greater influence over the final outcome, are valuable from a standpoint of downside protection.
Many thanks,
Andrew
