One website I personally have found to be very efficient and dependable is Zacks.com and I’ve been using them since 2006. When the opportunity came along to have them as an affiliate, I welcomed them aboard. Zachs is the one site that has become more helpful now than ever especially with the uncertainty of the economy. Their investing research is outstanding, as well as diverse. Zachs has been around since 1988 and has performed well over that time. According to the site, they’re up an average of 28% each year since their start.

As a premium member you have all that Zachs has to offer including up to date e-mails of stocks that you list in your portfolio. Find out about the latest rating of stocks, up to date information about what’s going on Wall Street, Mutual Funds, options, and ETF’s along with their Research Wizard program that will help you screen and back-test stocks that you’re interested in.

If you’re already a member, that’s great, but if you haven’t been a member before, here’s you opportunity to take advantage of a 30 day FREE trial of Zachs Investment Research premium membership. If after the 30 day FREE trial, you’re not satisfied with what Zachs has to offer, then just cancel it. I’m pretty certain that most of you will continue the great membership from Zachs.com.

In my travels I have found many phony programs and other types of investor “clubs” that leave something to be desired. I have also found quite a few places where, after years of being involved with, I still keep coming back for more because I find the information to be honest and straight-forward. One of those places where I’ve been going to for research and knowledge is Jim Cramer from CNBC’s Mad Money. He is also the Chairman for the web site TheStreet.com, a site dedicated to the stock market and one that I visit a couple of times a day.

I first started watching him in 2005. I found his show to be more entertaining than informative, but after awhile I realized that the show was purposely geared to make stock trading entertaining.
During the first two years that I watched his show I increased my portfolio by leaps and bounds. The man knows his stuff.

FREE JIM CRAMER – 14-day trial to Action Alerts PLUS, & his latest bestseller FREE.

For over 10 years Jim Cramer was a successful hedge fund manager and now he writes for RealMoney.com. Over the years he has developed a strict set of investing disciplines that have helped all kinds of people be successful through any market.

If you asked any average investor out there between the years of 2005-2007, they would say the man is a great source of information and that they made money from his insight. In the last year though there are people out there that don’t know the intricacies of the show and say that they’ve lost money from his recommendations. If you watch the show you would know that he even says that you should not buy stocks on his recommendations until you have done the research to see if the investment is right for you. It also doesn’t help that since October 2007 the stock market has been correcting itself as well as dealing with all the deception that the financial sector had been up to.

Through it all, Jim Cramer has given me some great insight into the stock market through a service he created Action Alerts PLUS, which allows people to follow along as he makes his own trades. Managing money with an open hand is hard. But, Jim Cramer is so committed to helping people learn that he created a charitable trust portfolio to show investors how and why he makes trades.

In Action Alerts Plus, you’ll have the ability to see what Jim Cramer recommends for the trust fund and get to trade along side him. You’ll get e-mails a couple of times a day from him depending on what is going on in the markets. He doesn’t buy or sell any stock without sending you an e-mail first and he will give you his reasons for the action that he’s taken. You also get to look at his portfolio as he buys and sells stocks.

In the time that I’ve been a member of Action Alerts Plus, I’ve gotten insight to why the markets have been taking a beaten and how to avoid losing any more money in the process. In most cases, I’ve made money as the stock market corrected itself.

I suggest giving the program a try and seeing for yourself what you think of it. Click the banner below, or in our sidebar, subscribe for a free two week trial and get a free look at Jim Cramer’s Action Alerts Plus Portfolio.

During your free two weeks, you’ll have the same exact access that all the paying members get, such as;

1. Daily e-mails that will inform you of what he planning on buying or selling and his reason for it.
2. Full access to his stock portfolio which will show you which stocks he holds, what his cost basis is, when he first bought into the stock, when his last transaction was and what his gains and losses are for each stock holding.
3. Jim Cramer’s 25 Rules of Investing.
4. Jim Cramer’s 10 Commandments of Trading.

After the two week free trial period, you have the option to sign up or cancel. If you sign up, you can pay monthly or annually.

Jim Cramer has enlightened and educated me in many aspects of the stock market and I know he can do the same for you. Try it free for two weeks and let me know what you think.

Reader Question: Do you watch Mad Money or read The Street website? What’s your opinion on it? Are you, or have you ever been a member of Action Alert Plus, and if so, what was your experience?
