Max Monday: How a Wall Street Trader Made a Fortune Betting on Baseball
By Tim Melvin
Dear Reader,
Happy Monday!
I'm not your traditional investor by any means, because I don't do what the rest of Wall Street does. While the investment crowd is getting ready to jump off a financial cliff, I'm backing away into a lounge chair as I relax and earn great returns. However, I can still learn from those big heads mainly to know what not to do in the markets. In my lifetime of investing, I've learned the winning strategies to earn a pretty buck all along the way.
So let's take a look at the books and then several quick-dive articles that I recommend adding to your library for greater financial success...
This Week's Worthwhile Books
---------------------------------------------------------------
[Trading Bases: A Story about Wall Street, Gambling, and Baseball...](- by Joe Peta
Baseball, gambling, and hedge funds all in one book? There was no way I wasn't going to read this book, and it did not disappoint in any way. I learned more than one thing about sports betting math and market math that have made me a few extra bucks since reading this great story. This is well worth the time to read and I am pretty confident that for many of you it will occupy the same high place of honor on your permanent bookshelf as my copy does. You can read or listen to the book [here](.
[The Big Rich: The Rise and Fall of the Greatest Texas Oil Fortunes](
- by Bryan Burrough
From the great discovery at Spindletop up through about 2008, this book covers the rough and tumble world of the Texas oil industry. The book covers four of the industry titans including Hugh Roy Cullen, Clint Murchison, Sid Richardson, and H. L. Hunt through their journey from wildcat drillers to billionaires. The lessons on risk taking, capital allocation, financial structure, ethics, and more can be learned here, or you can just read it because it is a great story. [Get a copy of your own here](.

This Week's Quick Read Articles
[Asset Class Returns 1999 to 2018](
According to conventional wisdom, stocks are always best. I have been telling you for some time now that that is not the case. The real fortune-making money is in real estate, specifically real estate investment trust. If you want to make serious money in the markets by an enormous margin over everything else, you need to own a lot more REITs that you probably do right now. I will keep saying it but [here]( is just one more piece of data that proves my point.
[2019 Banking and Capital Markets Outlook Reimagining Transformation](
By now everyone should be well aware that I love financial services companies with a special affection for banks. In this podcast and transcript, the banking and capital markets teams at Deloitte, one of the world's largest consulting firms, take a global look beyond just the U.S. banking system while discussing technology, regulation, and interest rates that will shape the future of investments. While it is a fairly quick listen, the podcast and transcription give you a solid background on the banking and financial services business. [Listen or read on here](.
[Rubenstein and Lee Weigh In on What's Next for the Global Economy](
The private-equity legend and the current co-CEO of Carlyle Capital discuss together what is going on in the world and where we might be headed. One of the ways I got to where I am today is by listening to smart people and making their knowledge my own. The two investment giants discuss global economic conditions, global warming, and the upcoming elections. [Read more]( of the wide range of topics.
[Saving California](
The planned IPOs of companies like Uber and Pinterest could provide the cash that California needs to continue funding its progressive path. The state relies heavily on income tax, and those rates are much higher on the wealthy. As insiders at some of the newly public unicorns exercise options and sell stock, it becomes taxable and could raise billions of dollars in tax revenue for the state. Combining this revenue with new income streams from cannabis and sports gambling will make closed-end bond funds that invest in California Municipal Bonds worth another look.

To the Max,

Just days ago, President Trump announced new plans to unveil a HUGE 5G push - and a massive [$20 billion endowment](. This is the critical event tech investors have waited YEARS for - and it's officially here. But this ground-floor opportunity could be gone tomorrow. [Details](...
