Dear Fellow Investor,

My name is Nicholas Vardy... and I want to help you rescue your portfolio.

Now, if you're familiar with my financial analysis as cited in The Wall Street Journal, Fox Business News, CBS Marketwatch, and elsewhere, you know that I am not given to rash statements or promises.

By this time, you're certainly aware that Wall Street financial advisors and fund managers seem powerless to act aggressively to stop the hemorrhaging of your money... nor do they seem to have a coherent idea of how to even begin.

What you may not know is that they have little choice.

An obscure investing law virtually strips fund managers of the freedom to take any effective steps to protect your portfolio in a horrific market such as this -- and so your money bleeds away, month after terrifying month.

I am not encumbered by this anachronistic law -- which, as you will see, makes all the difference in the world to your portfolio.

So you can believe me when I tell you: 12 months from today you will know, beyond any shadow of a doubt, the lost wealth you worked so hard to build is returning to your portfolio.

In addition, I make this personal guarantee up front...

You will profit from at least 7 DOUBLE-DIGIT or TRIPLE-DIGIT winning investments -- in your FIRST YEAR -- with my investing service.

Why such bold promises from a man who founded the London Junto, the forum of prudent investors who manage $50 billion in assets... a man with degrees from Stanford and Harvard and well-known among his colleagues for eschewing extravagant statements of any kind?

In a word: I am angry.

I'm angry because I see decent people who worked hard all their lives and invested their money in so-called "fully diversified" investment plans and funds supposedly structured to deliver "sleep at night" gains over the years...

... only to find themselves, after decades of faithful investing, in possession of
portfolios WORTH 40%-50% LESS than just over a year ago.

Sound familiar? Read on...

I'm angrier still when I ponder the continuing travesty of massive corporate bailouts, $50 billion Ponzi schemes, grotesque Wall Street bonuses, and gargantuan "golden parachutes" doled out to failed chief executives, men not fit to flip burgers at a fast-food joint.

And when I think about legislators who literally demanded subprime loans and kept Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac on life-support... the greedy money men who packaged bad mortgages into toxic securities... and the government overseers who couldn't (or refused) to see that the whole credit system was "wearing no clothes."

But I really start to "lose it" when I behold the tsunami of excuses gushing forth from the once high-and-mighty "Masters of the Universe," the very same financial Pied Pipers who led investors to this sorry state.

What a Pathetic Spectacle it is...

	"Legendary" fund managers pleading with investors to ignore their current failures and remember their celebrated winning streaks versus the S&P -- as though you can spend long-lost "winning streaks" at the supermarket.
	Hedge fund "geniuses" begging investors to understand how they could not possibly have foreseen the 70% implosion of their wild bets on the "China Miracle" with other people's money.
	Wall Street "masterminds" explaining why they piled billions into lethal financial stocks long after sane voices were literally screaming, "Get out!"

It's a frightening fiasco to behold.

But there's a reason money managers aren't being straight with you:

They Can't Tell You  the Truth

Because if you ever discovered the true extent of the no-win situation in which many of these managers are trapped... you'd feel so betrayed you might never trust your investments with another Wall Street financial company again.

You see, financial managers know very well the last place they should have had your money during the past year was... invested in the stock market.

Yet, ironically, most of them couldn't legally take your money out.

I repeat -- THEY COULDN'T TAKE IT OUT.

Most investors are unaware that the law may force their financial manager to play by rules that severely limit the defensive steps they can take in a "capitulation" market like this one.

No, I take that back. The law doesn't just "limit" them -- it hogties them and stakes them (and your portfolio) out on an anthill to be devoured by plunging stock values.

They can't borrow or go short. They can't diversify beyond their sector. Worse, most can't even sensibly retreat to safer positions without breaking the law.

So, if you've been wondering why your portfolio manager can't seem to stop the "bleeding" -- why your monthly statement keeps going down and down -- there's your answer: Legally, your financial manager probably has no place to run... or even hide.

In fact, the typical fund manager may be required by the law to remain almost 100% invested even if the market is melting down faster than an ice cube in July... even if he knows with every fiber of his being that he should get his investors' money as far from the stock market as he can.

Your Money is Trapped in an Unfair Fight...

Think of your financial manager as a boxer, who must scrupulously adhere to the Queensberry rules, matched against a brutal stock market that brawls like one of those "ultimate fighters" featured on TV.

While your money advisor is forced to box by strict rules, the stock market, like an ultimate fighter, is free to kick, bite, gouge, stomp -- and then, for good measure, whack the financial manager over the head with a ringside chair.

Meanwhile, the referee looks on and says, "Seems fair to me -- keep fighting."

Along with millions of other horrified investors, you get to watch the slaughter, knowing your money is riding on the "boxer"... the poor slob left battered and dazed on the canvas by the bear market. But...

It Doesn't Have to Be that Way

Yes, the law forces most financial managers into passively taking a beating.

But the law doesn't say your money has to stand there and "take it."

You can -- if you're mad enough -- fight to reclaim your lost money with the same advantages, freedom and single-minded fury as an ultimate fighter.

But only when you recognize that we have sailed into uncharted investing waters and that this bear market or recession or whatever you choose to call it is a far different beast than the crash of 1987, the Internet Bubble of 2000 or the stock plunge following the 9/11 attacks.

And only when you accept that "buy-and-hold" as an investing strategy to recover your lost net worth is dead and buried... a false hope, especially, for any investor who is within shouting distance of retirement.

And, finally, only when you adopt the no-holds-barred strategies employed by a brilliant group of investors I refer to as the "Alpha Traders" -- who are, in my opinion, the "ultimate fighters of investing."

Alpha Traders Fight Back

Alpha Traders fight hard.

And they fight back.

Guess what? It feels damned good to fight back.

Let me ask you this...

What were you doing during the catastrophe of the last months of 2008 as the stock market endured its worst crash since 1929? Well, I can tell you that...

	Just a few weeks after the crash in September 2008, I signaled my investors to lock in a robust 55% gain on one single trade -- and also had the pleasure of informing them our entire portfolio was up during that terrible month. That's what it feels like to be an Alpha Trader.
	As the stock market continued to suffer a historic battering and the world descended into panic in October 2008, I calmly reported to my investors gains of 30%, 20% and 12%. That's what it feels like to be an Alpha Trader.
	My investors bucked the trend once again in November 2008 as I reported two portfolio positions hitting profits of 20% and 16%, and another trade up by 25% since the September crash. That's what it feels like to be an Alpha Trader.
	Even in December 2008 when the markets settled down a bit and were actually up about 1%, we made profits of 17% -- crushing the market. That's what it feels like to be an Alpha Trader.

A rather pleasant feeling, don't you think?

But just in case making highly profitable gains during the worst months for global stock markets since the 1929 crash doesn't impress you, consider that since inception of my service, my subscribers have made:

71 trades in which we more than doubled our money... and 17 additional trades where we more than tripled it. I should also mention, we locked in our profits in an average of 48 days.

These fortunate investors were with me as subscribers to Vardy's Global Bull Market Alert.

There's never been a better time to join us. The opportunities for Alpha Traders are numerous and ripe.

While the times in which we live are driving most investors to despair, Alpha Traders rub their hands together with glee at the opportunities they see.

Because they know for a fact that the motto by which they invest is true -- "There's always a bull market somewhere."

Alpha Traders are the world's smartest, most talented investors. They most certainly don't allow themselves to be helplessly pummeled by unfavorable market conditions.

If I had to sum up the Alpha Traders I associate with in just a couple of sentences, it would be as follows:

	Alpha Traders protect their money when others can't.
	Alpha Traders make money when others don't.

Is there a better way for any investor to be described? I doubt it.

Alpha Traders deploy an array of tactics to adapt their investing to market conditions. (Their ultra-rich clients demand nothing less.)

While other investment managers lie paralyzed and at the mercy of the bear, these traders are legally free to use whatever strategies they choose to... including getting out of the market when that's the only sane recourse.

You may be thinking -- bully for them, but it doesn't do a thing for my ailing portfolio.

Ah, but here's yet another thing most investors don't know...

You Can Invest Like an Alpha Trader Yourself!

You don't need to be a millionaire to do it.

Nor do you have to be an investing wizard.

Nor leave the country.

You simply require entrée into the investing strategies used by the Alpha Traders... so you can benefit from the astonishing freedom and flexibility that makes them the most successful investors in the world.

I propose to provide the entrée you need.

Why me?

A fair question which I'm delighted to answer.

I am the editor of Vardy's Global Bull Market Alert -- as well as an SEC-registered investment advisor, Chief Investment Officer of Global Guru Capital, and the founder of the London Junto, which is the inner circle of top-drawer Alpha Traders who together manage more than $50 billion in assets.

Although American, I reside in London, where I host the monthly meeting of the Junto... as well as enjoy casual discussions over lunch with these singular investors on a regular basis. They are my friends. My neighbors. My unofficial "brain trust."

	The #1 global money fund manager
	The #1 European money fund manager
	The #1 emerging European money fund manager
	The #1 Russian money fund manager
	CEOs of technology venture capital funds
	Chief economists from the world's top investment banks
	The publisher of the world's #1 business magazine

The insight I gain from my ongoing contacts with these Alpha Traders is priceless, to say the least.

These superlatively talented investors are my "secret weapon," if you will, in my quest to find the most profitable opportunities, not only in every corner of the world, but also in every investment sector and every global market.

Of course, finding opportunities and then employing the right investing strategies are two different things. And the Alpha Traders are...

Global "Grandmasters" of Strategic Investing

A grandmaster at any pursuit -- be it fencing, chess, poker, or investing -- first makes certain he has all the advantages lined up on his side.

Alpha Traders do not have the choking regulations that turn other managers into helpless prey in any sudden -- or prolonged -- market downturn.

They enjoy a level of freedom and flexibility that was (up until now, as I will explain in the paragraphs that follow) unparalleled in all of investing.

Alpha Traders, operating totally within the law, invest anywhere they like -- any market, industry sector, currency, commodity, anywhere in the world -- employing, if they choose, creative risk-management strategies such as short selling, futures, swaps, derivatives, and even cash.

In short, they use all the tactics your average U.S. money manager is forbidden to employ... by law.

But you, the individual investor, are not so shackled.

Today's New Investment Vehicles
Have Literally "Set You Free"

For example, you hear a lot about Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs).

Do not be lulled into thinking that ETFs are just a new-fangled kind of mutual fund.

Trust me, ETFs are a revolutionary breakthrough for investors.

ETFs empower you to take full advantage of just about any market, commodity or currency anywhere on earth, just as easily as you buy U.S. stocks. That, in and of itself, is revolutionary.

But there's more. ETFs are crafted in an innovative way to remove all the complexity from strategies such as limit orders, short selling and options.

Buy the ETF -- lets say, one that shorts the British Pound Sterling -- and you've "bought the strategy."

Imagine using Alpha Trader strategies average U.S. investors have traditionally regarded as "too complex" or "too sophisticated"... with all the ease of buying typical U.S. stocks or mutual funds.

Another innovation, American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), make it possible for you to buy foreign securities on U.S. exchanges, just as you would any American stock or ETF. That means no complicated international transactions to deal with.

All this represents unheard of flexibility and ease for all investors.

Precisely the flexibility you need, and must not hesitate to use, if you hope to see your portfolio recover to its former level.

Needless to say, I advise my subscribers to exploit ALL of these investing options -- just as the Alpha Traders counsel theirs.

The strategies I'll provide you with in Global Bull Market Alert enable you to recover your lost wealth deploying the full arsenal of investing tactics readily available (and being fully utilized as I write) by the same super-investors who manage the money of the mega-rich.

There are two parts to my strategy for rebuilding your portfolio:

Need I add that this is the very essence of investing like an Alpha Trader?

"I Don't Make Predictions -- I Make Money"

I'm the first to admit -- I don't know where the next profit opportunities will exist this year.

That's the whole point of how we invest. It's not predictions that make profits for us. It's our freedom and flexibility to trade as conditions dictate.

We follow the money.

If there's none to be made -- we retreat to defensive mode and watch intently for opportunities to reappear.

When they do, we pounce.

Does this seem cold-blooded?

So be it. Investing is not a tea party.

You must be coldly realistic when it comes to your portfolio -- unless you're content to be one of the victims shaking their heads and commiserating with all the other losers.

I'm offering you the chance to invest smarter and tougher than the helpless financial advisors who "managed" the money of millions into oblivion. But how?

Here's a "Snapshot"...

At this moment, we're taking profits from trading in currencies using ETFs. Big profits.

In fact, at the end of 2008, all the open positions in Global Bull Market Alert, were up, some as high as 17% and 18%.

How many other advisors had good news to report at the end of the year, I wonder?

A year in which most investors considered themselves fortunate if their portfolios were "only" down by 30%.

We made currency trades for one simple reason.

Currencies, at that instant in time, were the only safe game in the entire global investing universe. And by emphasizing currency plays that were uncorrelated to the overall stock market, we detached ourselves from the global market meltdown.

Again, the operative phrase here is "uncorrelated to the overall stock market." That was the only way to make money -- possibly in the world -- that month.

Alpha Traders knew it. I knew it. And because I knew it, Global Bull Market Alert subscribers made profits as high as 55%.

Will we continue investing in currencies? Maybe. Maybe not.

If our currency trades continue to make profits, we'll continue with such trades. When currency plays no longer produce gains -- we'll move on.

But the crucial point is this: These gains were achieved during the WORST MONTHS in the stock market since the Crash of 1929.

Lest you think we were just lucky opportunists who hit the "currency jackpot" during a global crisis, it's important to note the successes listed above were just the most recent of our winning strategies to buck the trends.

We've also chalked up gains like these...

	61% on Japanese Yen in under 4 months
	106% on Potash in 6 weeks
	84% on NII Holdings Inc. in under 6 weeks
	55% on PowerShares DB US Dollar Index in 8 weeks
	31% on Market Vectors Coal ETF in under 7 weeks
	42% on Atwood Oceanics in 10 weeks
	74% on PowerShares DB Agriculture in under 2 months

I can also report that all these trades were made during 2008, a truly horrendous investing year for the ages with most global markets down 50% or more.

And I'm also delighted to report we've achieved...

71% Annualized Gains Overall

I hasten to point out that subscribers who have been with me for the 3+ years of Global Bull Market Alert have racked up 71% annualized gains over that time. Not many investors can say the same.

A fact that has prompted numerous Global Bull Market Alert subscribers to wax eloquent on our successes. Their words speak volumes more than mine:

	By acting on your advice these past two months, I have increased the size of my portfolio more than during my years investing through a broker.
	-- Edward Joyner, Southern Pines, NC

	I just wanted to thank Mr. Nicholas Vardy and the whole team in helping me enhance my portfolio. It's really been very good the last few weeks. I have started with only a small capital to invest but considering the gains Mr. Vardy's recommendations have brought, my aim of studying at Columbia business school may now come true.
	-- Kumar Pratyush, London, UK

	You are GREAT! I love your speed, precision and knowledge, but I especially love your humility and honesty... I feel I can recommend you to all my friends with great confidence. Thanks so much!
	-- Bob A., Nashville, TN

	I've only invested in a couple of recommendations thus far. All have been excellent. I plan to cancel several other publications and use yours exclusively.
	-- Steve Y., Arlington, WA

	I've followed Nick's advice and made some great trades in the short time I've been a subscriber.
	-- John L., Arlington, VA

	On Day 1, acquired all your recommendations. Actually made gains. I plan to renew without hesitation.
	-- Bruce M., Toronto, ON Canada

	Consistent double-digit returns.
	-- Gerald B., Beaverton, OR

And words of a very satisfying kind come even from other investing experts, a breed not known for kind praise bestowed upon the track records of others. Here's a recent example:

	Nicholas Vardy is a standout in the global advisory world. In my 25 years of monitoring the financial newsletter industry, I have found few advisors whose stock picking talents are as consistently impressive.
	-- Steven Halpern, The Stock Advisors

Of course, the praise above is for past successes.

My job -- like that of the Alpha Traders with whom I associate and exchange ideas -- is to be ready for the NEXT investing opportunity.

I don't know for sure where the next opportunity will be.

And that's exactly the point.

If you ever hope to recover the wealth that hemorrhaged from your portfolio, you must be able to invest with freedom and flexibility. And be quick and responsive to the opportunities that present themselves in unexpected places.

I might also add: And be more than just a little bit angry.

Don't hold back. After what the investing establishment has done to your portfolio, you're entitled.

In short, you must invest like an Alpha Trader. And that's what I invite you to do now.

How We'll Do it... Together

It happens like this:

PLEASE NOTE: You may think investing on a global scale involves complex transactions or special fees. Rest easy, you'll be buying stocks or ETFs on the U.S. stock exchange in U.S. dollars. It's just like buying Google or General Electric. You can trade through your broker -- even online through companies such as E*Trade and TD Ameritrade.

It really is easier than you can imagine.

The beauty of the Global Bull Market Alert is that it simplifies investing strategies most investors fear as too complex... but which, paradoxically, happen to be the only strategies that can literally bring portfolios "back from the dead."

Now, ask yourself...

How long has it been since you looked at your portfolio statement without a feeling of pure dread? How long since you saw a market uptick that wasn't immediately wiped out by a heartbreaking plunge the next day? Too long? Then, I have a proposition for you...

Try My Alert Service For 60 Days.
The Risk? Zero. Nothing.

If you're thinking "Hmm, what have I got to lose?" -- hold that thought!

By trying my service... you can't lose.

Your first 60 days of Global Bull Market Alert are on me. If you're not completely delighted with the results, I pick up the tab.

That means for the next two months you'll receive my weekly market updates and critical buy/sell bulletins and enjoy total access to my subscribers-only website.

Put me to your test. Take a long hard look at my recommendations -- or go ahead and execute as many of my Alpha Trades as you like.

Then -- and only then -- make your decision.

If you're not completely delighted with what you've seen at the end of 60 days (or any time before), just let me know. I'll send you a prompt refund of 100% of your subscription fee -- every cent.

What's more, your guarantee of satisfaction remains in effect even after your 60-day trial. You may still cancel your subscription any time after the first two months and receive a pro-rated refund for the remaining balance of your subscription fee.

Now, what can you lose if you don't take me up on my risk-free offer to try Global Bull Market Alert? Well...

	Consider that less than 1% of money managers made any money in the year just past. (In fact, they're bragging over their martinis if they "only" lost 20%-30% of their clients' portfolios!)
	Consider that the average diversified U.S. stock mutual fund is down 41% in 2008. (Yes, Virginia, the theory that "diversification protects against bear markets" is now under serious review.)
	Consider that even the venerated Harvard endowment, one of the most sophisticated, diversified, imitated and slavishly worshipped investment vehicles on the planet, fell by 22% over the past five months.
	Consider that a U.S. investor who faithfully put money into the average diversified American stock fund for the past 10 years -- would have lost money.

What was the question? Oh, yes. What do you have to lose?

Knowing well the hazards of "blowing one's own horn" in an economic environment such as this one, I nevertheless believe it relevant to point out...

Since the inception of Global Bull Market Alert, I've made 71% annualized gains for my investors.

Not because I'm some kind of genius.

We're making money because I'm making recommendations to my readers based on the Alpha Trader strategies favored by the most successful investing advisors in the world... who manage wealth for the richest clients in the world.

No, I'm not promising, in this market, in these global economic conditions, to make you instantly rich. Only a fool would say, or believe, that. But...

I simply state to you, as I did at the top of this letter: 12 months from today you will know, beyond any shadow of a doubt, the lost wealth you worked so hard to build is returning to your portfolio.

And I'm backing up that statement with a second ironclad guarantee:

You must have 7 DOUBLE-DIGIT or
TRIPLE-DIGIT winners -- in your
FIRST YEAR -- or I'll send your money back

I can make a guarantee like this because I'm very confident of my results -- and also because I'm not like the garden-variety newsletter advisors you may have tried.

When you receive my recommendations, you will know they are coming to you -- not from a financial "writer" or "journalist" -- but from a full-time, professional trader and member of the Alpha Trader community.

With this invitation, I'm making my service a better bargain than ever.

Normally, a one-year subscription costs $1,250 -- but as a new member you pay only $995. That's a 20% savings ($255) off the regular rate. You may choose to pay quarterly, if it's more convenient.

By agreement, my publisher and I limit the Global Bull Market Alert service to 1,000 subscribers, to avoid undue influence on the market.

Once we reach that limit, the door is closed.

Subscriptions are taken on a first-come, first-served basis. However, we maintain a waiting list should openings arise.

Join me today -- reserve your place instantly by calling toll-free 1.888.219.4751, or by clicking the "Subscribe Now" button below.

A year from now you'll look back on this day with satisfaction -- especially when you look over the bottom line of your portfolio.

Sincerely,

Nicholas A. Vardy
Editor, Vardy's Global Bull Market Alert
