TRADING
Mark turned his personal trading account into millions, averaging 220%/year for over 5 consecutive years with only 1 losing quarter - 33,500% total return.
To put that in perspective, a $100,000 account would explode to more than $30 million in just 5 years.
He traded a long-only stock portfolio to win the real-money investment derby with a 155% annual return, a performance that was nearly double the nearest competing money manager.
