Zacks Investment ResearchReviews 165

Just a note to say I really appreciate Tracey's weekly write-up on the Zacks Value Investor portfolio. While she respects the Zacks Rank system, she also takes other factors into account when deciding whether or not to add/drop a stock. Which is what I try to do as well. I also like the way she points out stocks in the portfolio that are still worth adding, despite the gains they may have already experienced. And I especially like the way she sometimes mentions stocks that she holds or has added to her personal portfolio, even though they are not part of the Value Investor portfolio. For me, that adds a level of trust I might not get with another strategist.

I am a Zacks Ultimate member. Perhaps, for 10 years or more. The investment suggestions are very insightful and the reports are exceptional.

I give you my highet recommendations.

What I can't understand is companies saying - "sign up and you get everything we have to offer) and then once signed up they try to sell you more stuff. Having said that so far Zacks has been pretty good and after a month or so it has returned my investment. They really have got this sorted - I took out a trial subscription to Motley Fool at the same time but I thought Zacks information and analysis was better for what I wanted to do (swing trading) MF is better for long term holdings which wasn't for me.
Well done Zacks and if you hadn't tried to sell me the ultimate solution in finding trades you would have got 5 stars

ABSOLUTE GAME CHANGER - AN HONEST REVIEW FROM THE UK

No matter what skeptics may say, these individuals truly excel, and I speak from personal experience having ventured into various other avenues and faced substantial losses. Last year, I decided to take the plunge with the irresistible $1 offer from Zacks. Not only did I create a diverse portfolio, but I strategically invested in stocks during downtrends, set buy orders for those on the rise, and followed their suggestions diligently. Their daily portfolio updates are second to none!

That said, what sets Zacks apart is not just their expertise but the personalised touch. Even with the nominal $1 investment, I was assigned an accounts manager who beyond just 'being there', generously shared his knowledge and even glimpses into him as a person. Impressed and grateful, I decided to go all in.

With enthusiasm, I requested, "Hook me up with the Ultimate Lifetime," and to my delight, my accounts manager arranged an affordable monthly plan that I promptly committed to. Now, not only has my portfolio covered the membership costs, but it has also generated profits beyond my wildest expectations. Kudos to my accounts manager – he is undeniably exceptional!

Tip: if you don't like the accounts manager you are assigned to, maybe because they don't fit your personality, you can request a change! I did.

I have been trading stocks since the early 1960s! I have had some good years and some bad ones, but overall, the value of my portfolio has not increased in value much. In the first month of having access to all of Zacks research I was able to see why; much of my equity was tied up with stocks that I continued to carry waiting for my 'hot stock tip' investments to recover. With Zacks research data I was able to see which stocks needed to be sold, even at their perennial losses. With the money from those sales I was able to buy stocks with high Zacks Rank. My portfolio is healthier and growing well.

I have been through many thousands of dollars and different companies that promise to make me rich. I have never met anyone else besides Nick, who is my dedicated Zacks Ultimate Sales Rep, who has done what they said they were going to, followed up, and knew exactly what he was doing. Zacks Ultimate along with help only a phone call away are highly recommended and have changed my portfolio and helped me to better my training and understanding to make a better financial life for me. I can't thank Nick enough, because he is extremely intelligent, helpful, alert and attentive. You really want to work with Zacks, all the best!

With Zacks Rank System I get a good orientation to find the right stocks for me. That gives confidence in trading, thank you!

I prefer trading options. Because of the tax law in my country I do only work with selling options. That opens up more flexibility to my trading. For me, Zacks Rank #1 or #5 give an idea of the direction of price development. If I sell options on the picked underlying Zacks Rank stock I gain an additional advantage because of the spread between stock price and option strike price. That means, even if the underlying stock won't make the expected move or even slightly moves in the wrong direction, I am still able to earn premium.

So, thanks for this beautiful Zacks Rank System!

"I loved Zacks Ultimate, but right now in my life, I didn't have time to look into all the information it provided. Most weeks I only have time to look into the two or three stock picks from Zacks Confidential - rarely do I have time to read the entire commentary (I love it when I do have time). I've gotten some good performing stocks from Zacks Confidential such as PARR, which is up +50% in just 4 months, CVGL which doubled in a year, and ON doubled in a year, which is a pick I think I got from Zack's Ultimate (before I canceled it). The stock picks that didn't do so well have only lost a small amount, so that I haven't had any real losers from Zack's. I don't blindly accept all Zack stock picks - I look into them, follow price charts, and get in at my price, but the guidance that Zack's has provided me has been very helpful.

If you can get 30 days of the Ultimate service for $1, do it! I've seen many negative reviews from people who simply didn't know how to turn off auto-renew after trying a trial period. And then they got charged. (Zack's makes this point clear when you sign up. You will be charged if you don't cancel.) It couldn't be easier. Go to "My Account", go to "Orders" and turn off auto-renew. Done. And you can do this the day you buy the trial. You still get your 30 days. They actually allowed me to sign-up for a "30 days at $1" deal four times! Then they told me I'd reached my limit. That gave me four months to look at EVERYTHING. Once you're in, I suggest looking at the various portfolios you can follow. They are actually very transparent. You can see every stock a particular portfolio has bought and sold, and how much money they made or lost on each one. You can even go back and look at results from previous years. (Once you're on a portfolio page, click on "Performance.") Each portfolio is run by a stock analyst, and they each provide regular updates on their portfolios, explaining why they are buying or selling a particular stock. The service isn't cheap. But try the $1 offer and click around. Look at everything. If you come to the site to buy a few random "Strong Buy" stocks here and there, you will fail. There's a lot more to investing than that. But the $1 trials are well worth it. (I did eventually buy into the service. It's only been a couple of months, so I can't say too much. But so far, I am having more success than when I was picking stocks on my own.)

I had no knowledge, I had no patience, I wanted money quickly.
And this is not so.
I need the knowledge that Zacks gives me, the plan and direction that the reports and the information in them give me.

I make a lot of money investing, thinking that this investment is really for extra income, I hope next month I will get more profit, thank myself for always investing so much profit
