That's unbelievable! Even Warren Buffet only makes 19% - 20% compounded every year. That would make you one of the top investors ever.

Lots of people think they can do better than the index funds. Some do, for a while.

Buffet was severely handicapped by the amount of money he had available. He mentioned that himself. If he had to manage only a smaller amount of money he would easily achieve 40% or more per year.

Not really.

Plenty of hedge funds and HFT firms make 40-100% each year (before fees) over 30-40 years…

Citadel’s “stock picking ability” is 40% annual returns since 1999

They just don’t advertise this because it’ll make retail traders and passive ETF investors really sad

I doubt it makes people sad (well not me at least) because the buy in to get Citadel to invest for you is what 10? 50 million?

You could hit up juleiie from above for his/her winning method I suppose, or you put a portion of your savings into an appropriate ETF and get on with your life.
