The reason I’m writing to you today is because I’m convinced “paycodes” remain the best investment to use in any market — especially during volatile and uncertain times like we’re seeing right now.
Master trader Jim Fink has spent the last 30 years using this strategy to make money.
Just like Buffett, he’s used it again… and again… because it works.
“Paycodes” transformed his trading account from $50k (when he first started) to $5.3 faster than he ever thought possible.
And they continue to generate up-front cash to this day.

That was the number that scrolled across my screen after I sold shares on B. Riley Financial (RILY) back in April of 2024.
It was one of my biggest winners ever, turning $65 into $800 in just two days, live in my Daily Profits Live Trading Room.
So what exactly caused the move, and how can you prepare to take advantage of plays like this in the future?
That’s what I’ll be discussing with you today.
The Trade Setup
Before I got positioned on RILY, the market was picking up momentum after some oversold conditions. And I was looking for some stocks that had the potential to squeeze.
One of the main reasons RILY caught my attention is because the stock had a heavy short interest.
At the time I placed the trade, the short interest in RILY was 75%. After a recent monster rally, it has come down to 65%.
Let’s break it down step by step.
Short Interest: In the stock market, when someone believes that a particular stock’s price will decrease, they can engage in what’s called “short selling.” Here’s how it works:
They borrow shares of a stock from someone who owns it (typically through their broker).
They sell these borrowed shares on the market at the current price, hoping to buy them back later at a lower price.
If the price does indeed drop, they buy back the shares at the lower price and return them to the lender, pocketing the difference as profit.
High Short Interest: This simply refers to a situation where a large number of investors are engaging in short selling for a particular stock. So, a stock with high short interest means that there are many investors betting that its price will go down.
Short Squeeze: Now, imagine the opposite happens – instead of the stock price going down, it starts going up. When this occurs, it puts pressure on short sellers.
Here’s why:
As the stock price rises, short sellers start losing money because they sold shares at a lower price and need to buy them back at a higher price to return them.
Short sellers may start feeling the heat if the stock price rises significantly. They might cut their losses and buy back the shares they borrowed before the price goes even higher.
When many short sellers rush to buy back shares to cover their positions (known as “covering their shorts”), it creates additional demand for the stock, further driving its price up.
This sudden surge in buying activity, especially from short sellers trying to exit their positions, can lead to a rapid increase in the stock’s price, called a short squeeze.
If you don’t know the story, RILY has been under attack by short sellers, alleging the company committed fraud.
The stock declined from its last year’s high of $91.24 down to a low of $14.26 in February.

The company filed its annual report, it showed minimal adjustments to its financial numbers. More importantly, the company confirmed by a second law firm, there was no wrongdoing.
That news sent the shorts scrambling, pushing it to a high of $35 yesterday.
Below you can see my pre-market plan I posted in the Daily Profits Live Trading Room:
Last Word
It’s hard to trade successfully if you come in with a bias. RILY was attacked by shorts for months. However, I let the price action and the chart dictate whether or not I should take a position.
As retail traders, we don’t have access to the same information as the pros on Wall Street. That’s why it’s critical that we base our decisions on price action.
For example, I had no clue that RILY would be releasing their annual report yesterday, but on a risk vs. reward basis, the trade made sense to me.
When you do follow the price action, sometimes you “get lucky.” I can’t tell you how many times I have bought call options on a strong chart, only to see the next day the company catches an upgrade from a Wall Street firm, sending the stock soaring.
YOUR ACTION PLAN
Trades like RILY are possible for every trader when they know what to look for, and I’m going to show you how to start finding buy opportunities like RILY starting next week.
It’s part of my “3-day Trading Challenge,” where the first place winner of my paper trading contest will win $2,500 in cash.

New Highs and Sector Rotations: The S&P 500 and Dow both hit fresh closing records this week, even as the tech-heavy Nasdaq slipped.
The highs came as investors shift money away from tech and into sectors tied to the broader economy, with sectors like financials, materials, industrials and some consumer names are all doing more heavy lifting.

If you’re worried that AI is in a bubble, please listen carefully.
Over the past 18 months, I’ve traveled through America’s heartland, visiting data centers in Iowa, Wisconsin, Virginia, and more.
I went to xAI’s new AI facility in South Memphis — which powers Grok.
I’ve been to D.C. to meet with policymakers…
And more.
I’ve discovered that we’re on the cusp a new, much more powerful AI — something insiders call the “Holy Grail.”
It’s set to go “live” in early 2026…
And if you think the gains we saw from ChatGPT’s launch were big, get ready.
This could be on a whole other level.
I’m sharing all the details on December 18, at 8 p.m. ET, in an urgent briefing called: America Unleashed 2026: Five Years of Economic Growth in the Next 12 Months.

On Jan. 6, Nvidia makes its next big move (ad)Nvidia has become the world’s first $5 trillion company — and with the AI leader heading into the Consumer Electronics Show on Jan. 6, investors are watching closely for CEO Jensen Huang’s next major announcement. Nvidia often uses CES to unveil new partnerships and expansions, and this year’s reveal could send not only Nvidia’s stock higher, but also a select group of little-known companies working alongside them. With Nvidia now pivoting toward two breakthrough technologies worth more than $24 trillion, a handful of its quiet collaborators may be positioned for explosive gains — starting the moment CES opens.
HOTTEST AI investment opportunity out there (ad)A rare second chance at life-changing gains may be unfolding right now. One analyst says he’s found an “AI Wonder Stock” with upside potential comparable to early Microsoft — but on a much shorter timeline. While nothing is guaranteed, his research suggests this little-known company could deliver a powerful wealth surge over the next 18–24 months as AI demand accelerates. And with the stock still trading at what he calls “bargain levels,” early movers may have a brief window to act before Wall Street catches on.

If you’re chasing Nvidia, Amazon, or Palantir right now, I’ve got one word for you: Stop. Because according to legendary investor Whitney Tilson, AI mania is about to leave millions of investors holding the bag.
Many investors earn lower returns than they should because they are far too pessimistic about the future.
That may sound surprising to those who read Monday’s column, where I detailed how government policies make things like houses, cars, groceries, and utilities increasingly unaffordable.
Yet the private sector makes things better and… increasingly affordable.
That sounds like a contradiction. But it’s not.
It is possible for goods to simultaneously become more expensive and more affordable.
To measure affordability, we need to compare the price of goods and services to hourly compensation (wages and benefits).
The resulting ratio is called the time price.
A time price is the length of time the average worker labors to afford something.
Prices are expressed in dollars and cents. But time prices are expressed in hours and minutes.
It’s possible for things to become more expensive in dollars, but cheaper in time.
Which is more meaningful? In our daily lives, time is our most limited and nonrenewable resource.
That’s why time prices matter.
And they reveal something stunning: most things have become dramatically more affordable over time.
Understand this key point: the CPI tells us if something has become more expensive.
But the time price tells us if it has become more affordable.
Time prices are an excellent way to measure increases or decreases in our abundance over time for three reasons:
Time prices cannot understate or overstate inflation since prevailing prices and wages are used at every point on the timeline.
Time prices are independent of currency fluctuations. (They can be measured in euros, yen, or any other currency.)
Time prices provide a standardized way of measuring changes in wellbeing.
In their eye-opening book, Superabundance, authors Marian L. Tupy and Gale L. Pooley measured the costs of 50 commodities between 1980 and 2020.
They didn’t just find that the time prices of some of them went down.
The time prices of all of them went down.
In fact, the average time price decline of those 50 commodities – including oil, natural gas, wheat, cotton, soybeans, beef, corn, pork, and sugar – was a whopping 75.2%.
Put differently, a blue-collar worker had to work 75% less to afford the same amount of these things.
Unless we’re at the gas pump or the grocery store, however, we don’t usually buy commodities. We buy finished goods.
Yet the time price decline in these was just as dramatic. And in many cases, more so.
Over the same 40-year period, the time price of a utensil set declined 51%, a dishwasher declined 62%, a washer declined 65%, men’s clothing declined 72%, a bicycle declined 74%, a vacuum declined 83%, and a food processor declined 86%.
This isn’t cherry-picking. It’s across the board.
And that’s just for blue-collar workers.
White-collar workers – especially those with a college degree – saw time prices drop even more dramatically because their incomes are higher and rose faster.
It’s impossible, of course, to measure the 40-year time price decline in things like laptops, smartphones, and flat-panel TVs because none of these were even imagined in 1980.
For example, how do you compare the average cost of a book in 1980 to the more than 10 million that are free to download today from Google’s digital library?
Nobody thinks about the cost of a long-distance phone call today. But growing up, I did.
In college, I could only afford to call from my school in South Carolina to my home in Virginia at night when AT&T offered lower rates.
Today, I routinely have FaceTime calls with friends overseas at no cost.
Over the last 50 years, music listeners have gone from vinyl records to 8-track tapes to cassettes to CDs to MP3 files to streaming.
Today you can listen to almost any song, anywhere, at any time for next to free.
Other products are not free but considerably more affordable when measured in hours worked.
In 1971, a pair of soft contact lenses cost $65, and a fitting by an eye doctor ran about $550, putting the total cost at $615. Unskilled workers earned about $2 an hour.
Today an eye exam is around $120, and lenses start at $200, putting the cost at $320. Unskilled workers earn around $16.51.
In other words, the time price has declined 84%.
In 1970, the price for a roundtrip airline ticket from New York to London was $550.
Blue-collar workers earned $3.93 an hour at the time. (In my family, the folks who spent so lavishly were viewed as members of the “jet set.”)
Today, the same flight has dropped to about $467 and blue-collar workers earn about $36.15. The time price has decreased 91%.
In 1972, you could book a seven-day cruise from Miami to the Caribbean for $240.
Blue-collar workers earned about $4.59 an hour at the time.
Today, you can book a seven-day cruise out of Port Canaveral for $549. For blue-collar workers who earn $36.15 an hour, the price has dropped more than 70%.
Apple introduced the Macintosh in 1984 at a retail price of $2,495.
Unskilled workers earned about $5 an hour at the time.
Today a new iMac sells for $1,299 and unskilled workers earn about $16.51 an hour.
The time price has decreased by 84.2%.
And the difference between a 2025 Mac and the 1984 Mac is like comparing a Lamborghini with a skateboard.
That’s time price abundance.
Not all categories saw time price declines. Healthcare, college tuition, and childcare – heavily regulated, heavily subsidized, and labor-intensive – have outpaced inflation.
These markets don’t benefit from the “economics of knowledge,” where producing multiple copies of a prototype costs less and less.
But even in those areas, alternatives are emerging:
Online education is dramatically cheaper and more flexible than traditional degrees.
AI in healthcare is improving diagnostics, streamlining care, and lowering costs.
Many elective procedures (Lasik, cosmetic surgery, dental implants) have dropped in price significantly – because they’re outside the insurance system and thus more exposed to market forces.
In my new book, I detail how things are likely to become even more affordable in the years ahead, as I’ll discuss in my next column.
Get ready to adjust your investment plan accordingly.
Good investing,
Alex

We are halfway through our 2025 Hold the Line annual campaign. To the over 100 people that have contributed so far, THANK YOU!
WHY HOLD THE LINE?
Our community is hurting. “Reduced” out of jobs, fear over Medicaid and other funding cuts, uncertainty if neighbors or themselves might be picked up… and so much more… weighs on us all. In 2025, NAMI Northern Virginia has experienced an almost 65% increase in requests for support, education, and HOPE.
Together, we can meet the needs of our neighbors that need it most. Together, we can hold the line – but to do that, we need your dedication, your sense of purpose, and your support.
For over 48 years, we have relied on the support of our community so we can offer no cost mental health support, education, and advocacy. The need for our life-saving, critical services is greater than ever.
Hold the Line with us. Help us continue to offer HOPE.

During In Our Own Voice for Youth & Young Adults presentations, young adults with mental health conditions share their powerful personal stories in order to change attitudes, assumptions, and stereotypes. Presentations provide:
A first-hand account of what it’s like to live with a mental health condition. Our young adult presenters humanize this misunderstood topic by demonstrating that it’s possible – and common – to live well with a mental illness.
A chance to ask the presentersquestions, which allows for a deeper understanding of mental health conditions.
The understanding that every person living with a mental illness can hope for a bright future.
In Our Own Voice for Youth & Young Adults is best suited for audiences between the ages of 14-30.
Last Saturday, we took time to celebrate our amazing, dedicated volunteers with a year-end brunch.
Both long time volunteers and some of our newly trained and onboarded team members came together in community to celebrate our wins and prepare for the year ahead.
Our thanks to the incredible Zak Sandler for performing part of his autobiographical solo musical, “Inside My Head.”
Congratulations to our volunteer award winners:
Mike – Board of Directors Award
Carol and Joan – Spirit of NAMI Northern Virginia Award
Our volunteers are the lifeline of NAMI NoVA. Thank you for your selfless dedication to helping and offering hope to our community.
