Dave Skarica

At 18, Dave became one of the youngest people on record to pass the Canadian Securities course. At 19, he became a financial advisor and authors a newsletter entitled Addicted to Profits. In January of 1999 Dave's first book Stock Market Panic! How to Prosper in the Coming Bear Market was published. This book provides thought provoking arguments on why this great bull market will end in the most vicious bear market of all history. Dave has recently become a contributing editor to Canadian MoneySaver and Investors Digest of Canada.

Addicted to Profits has embarked on a fresh approach. No outlandish guarantees, no preconceived ideas, just honest, thorough research. Where other newsletters spend their energy on marketing approaches, we live and breathe searching for details and seeking out trends others may have missed. Addicted to Profits possesses an unique approach to investing. It is the only newsletter in the world which combines what editor, Dave Skarica, calls the "quartet" of security analysis. These being (in order of importance) (1) Mass Psychological (2) Technical (3) Monetary and (4) Fundamental analysis. This combination has helped Dave make some impressive market calls over the past few years. Our record includes a buy on the Dow Jones Industrial Average on September 1st, 1998, within one day and 200 points of "Rock Bottom". A buy on oil at 13.50 a barrel in November 1998, one month within in the ultimate low for oil.
