The table below indicates returns on all of the ideas published on the site so far. Until 2016 the site mostly covered odd-lot type situations, but since then the scope has been expanded to include various other types of special situation opportunities. Due to the nature of special situation investing the opportunities published on this site have relatively short time frames – i.e. positions are promptly closed after specific corporate action/event materializes. This results in relatively smaller absolute returns and high annualized IRRs.
Trading ideas that are currently active are not included in the table – currently 8 Active Ideas.
