Blog : Breaking!! Salaries of ISIS Fighters Cut by 50%

by Peter Leeds on January 19th, 2016

 
Islamic State Pay Cuts
 
Low oil prices are hurting ISIS.  A recent (hours old) featurette by CNN claims that Islamic State radicals are having to deal with their pay being cut in half.
 
While the terrorist group generates other fees, mainly from taxes and extortion and school dues, they get a major part of their income from selling crude oil on the black market.  Hopefully this reduction in pay will do more to deplete ISIS strength than aerial bombings (which do not work, as Peter explains here).

Also use "Limit Orders" (see item #4) as opposed to "Market Orders" - ask your broker if you don't know the difference.
 
 
Martin Luther King:  
 
In observance of the shortened Holiday week, there will be not stock pick today.  We are currently completing analysis on about 2 dozen prospective selections on our second-tier shortlist.  
 
There are a few we really like, and we will have the best one for subscribers early next week, along with more of Peter's personal trades.

 
New Book:
 
The revised edition of International bestseller, "Penny Stocks for Dummies," is slated to drop within weeks.  There are several new sections, such as "Investor Manias," "Bitcoin," and many others.  
 
There were also some helpful clarifications, and important rewording of some of the more complicated content.  "Penny Stocks for Dummies - 2nd Edition" will be available in February, wherever books are sold.
 
 
Today's Market Strength:
 
Earlier (when the DJIA was up over 100 points), we mentioned to subscribers of Peter Leeds Stock Picks that we would learn a great deal based on trading throughout the day.
 
Even if the gains had held up (which they didn't), the strong market had the feel of a Dead Cat Bounce [which Peter explains here], because the underlying economic issues are still present.
 
You can read about some of these concerns in Peter's Special State of the Market comments from a few days ago.  If you also want to see Peter's Outlook for the year, click The Dying of the Light.
 
All of this will sound negative or scary at first, but the opportunities getting set up by the current events will be magnificent.  Subscribers will learn about all of them - why not join us?
