Ian King is a former hedge fund manager with over two decades of experience trading and analyzing the financial markets. His market insights have been featured on Fox Business News, Investopedia and Seeking Alpha.

At 21, King started in the mortgage bond trading department at Salomon Brothers. He then spent time honing his skills in trading at Citigroup before spending a decade at New York-based hedge fund Peahi Capital. While there, his team made a 339% total return in 2008 alone. He is also known as one of Investopedia’s top resourceful contributors.

In 2017, he came to Banyan Hill Publishing to help our readers get ahead of the markets. He has three services: Strategic Fortunes, Extreme Fortunes and Next Wave Crypto Fortunes.

Jon Najarian, ‘‘DRJ,” was a linebacker for the Chicago Bears before he turned to another kind of contact sport — trading on the Chicago Board Options Exchange. He became a member of the CBOE, NYSE, CME and CBOT and worked as a floor trader for some 25 years.

Jon has earned a reputation in the industry as an options trading expert and pioneer. He developed and patented trading applications and algorithms used to identify unusual activity in stock, options, and futures markets.

Timothy Sykes is one of America’s most recognizable and successful self-made traders — a 20-year veteran best known for turning a modest $12,415 Bar Mitzvah gift into more than $7.7 million in verified trading profits.

His unique approach to trading tiny, overlooked stocks has made him a fixture on major media platforms, including Steve Harvey, Larry King, Fox Business, and CNN, while earning coverage from Forbes, Bloomberg, and The Financial Times.

But Tim’s accomplishments extend far beyond his own trading success. Over the past two decades, he has become one of the most influential trading educators in the world — mentoring thousands of students and helping more than 30 of them become millionaires. Countless others have used Tim’s strategies to achieve six-figure profits and transform their financial lives.

A West Virginia native whose parents were first-generation college students, Adam credits his family with teaching him the value of hard work.

The grind of running a multimillion-dollar hedge fund in his early 30s eventually got old…

Today, Adam much prefers identifying top profit opportunities for regular folks like his parents and grandparents.

John Wilkinson is the director of Banyan Hill’s premium publications, using his 30-plus years of experience in the financial industry to help readers navigate their investment services.

After assisting investors for over a decade, John felt it was important to find unbiased, independent investment research for his clients. During his search, he discovered Banyan Hill, and the rest is history.
