Invest Alongside AI, Not Against It


Charles’ Note: When you fight technology, you lose.

Sure, you might win a few rounds. But it will always end in a knockout… with you on the mat. 

So, if you’re trying to trade without AI these days, you’re effectively fighting a losing battle. Because your competition on the other side of the trade is already using it. 

That’s why I’m excited about the new AI trading system that Keith Kaplan and his team at TradeSmith launched yesterday. Called TradeSmithGPT, it gives regular investors access to the same tools the pros use. 

This is the next evolution in trading. And you can watch the replay of Keith’s presentation here (for a limited time).

I started using TradeSmith over 15 years ago to improve my risk management. As the company rolled out more and more trading tech over the years, I’ve been an enthusiastic early adopter. 

Just last year, I used TradeSmith’s seasonality analysis to pick winning stocks around the election for my Freeport Alpha readers. We made money on seven out of the nine trades, including 19% in Netflix (NFLX) in less than two months, and another 19% in Fox (FOX) in a little over three.

All pre-AI. Imagine what the results going forward will look like!

Today, Keith will explain what he and his incredible team of data scientists have created and how you can use it immediately to improve your returns.


Invest Alongside AI, Not Against It

By Keith Kaplan, CEO, TradeSmith

It started with a challenge…  

As CEO of TradeSmith, I have a team of top data scientists, programmers, and quant investors. 

We pride ourselves on being at the cutting edge. 

And this year, we’ve launched a few new strategies designed to help you trade what’s become an increasingly chaotic market environment. 

These include a seasonality screener, a tool that identifies snapback rallies, and more. 

They’ve all been huge successes in delivering outsized returns for our members, including…

  •  247% in 15 days,
  • 75% in 20 days,
  • 198% in 5 days, and
  • 94% in 35 days.

But I wanted to go one step further.  

So, I asked: Can we harness the same type of artificial intelligence technology Wall Street uses – and make it available to everyday investors? 

After tens of millions of dollars and hundreds of thousands of man-hours, the answer is a resounding “Yes!” 

As I revealed during a live demo yesterday, an AI project we’ve been quietly building is now finally ready for action. 

We call it TradeSmithGPT

It works 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year – analyzing opportunities across nearly 2,000 stocks in any sector you can imagine. 

In our backtests, it’s given opportunities to collect four, eight, even nine years of average stock market gains in a matter of weeks. 

Today, I’ll show you how this works, how it could completely change the way you build wealth in 2025 and beyond, and how it could help you outperform even the pros. 

First, it’s important you know how critical it is for us as self-directed investors to put AI on our side. 

As you’ll see, TradeSmithGPT isn’t just about boosting our returns. It’s about making sure we don’t get left behind in a world-changing “arms race.” 

No Room for Complacency 

You won’t hear much about it in the press. They’re too busy reporting on the food fight on Capitol Hill and the latest social media scandal. 

But there’s a frantic “arms race” on Wall Street right now. 

The world’s wealthiest and most sophisticated investors are racing to build ever more advanced AI systems — squeezing bigger profits from the market… often at your expense. 

This really caught my attention back in 2022 when Ken Griffin’s storied Citadel hedge fund hauled $16 billion out of the markets in 12 months… mostly by automated trading.  

That’s $9.8 million for every hour the stock market was open. 

But the AI arms race has accelerated at a pace even I didn’t see coming. 

Here’s just a small sample of recent developments… 

  • Steven Cohen’s Point72 Asset Management’s new AI-focused fund posted a 14% gain just three months after launching last October. That’s more than twice the 6.2% gain for the tech-heavy Nasdaq over the same time.  
  • Paul Marshall and Ian Wace’s AI-powered Trade Optimized Portfolio System (TOPS) synthesizes thousands of trade ideas – as well as data from social media – to find winners. This strategy netted 22.7% last year and a further 7.1% in 2025 so far.  
  • Melvin Capital delivered a staggering 44% return in 2019 and 30% annualized return from 2014 to 2020 by blending human insight with proprietary AI systems. 

It’s not just hedge funds that are turning to AI. 

Earlier this month, The Wall Street Journal reported that automated portfolios – many driven by algorithmic and AI-based strategies – now manage nearly $8 trillion. 

And more than eight in 10 fee-based advisors now use these portfolios for at least some client money. 

AI isn’t hype. 

It’s reshaping how money gets managed on a gargantuan scale. 

As individual investors, we can’t sit pat. We can’t be complacent. 

Griffin, Cohen, and the other “masters of the universe” on Wall Street aren’t flocking to AI for no reason. They know it’s better than human traders at spotting profitable market setups. They’re practically tripping over their Gucci loafers to get a leg up on the competition. 

This shift toward AI by deep-pocketed money managers is happening right when the gains from buy-and-hold investing are becoming more difficult to find. 

So we can ignore them or join them.

My vote’s for the latter. Here’s how we do that.

Volatility Is the New Name of the Game

April was the craziest month for markets since the 2020 pandemic crash. 

The S&P 500 plunged 11% over just two trading days. 

That wiped out $6.6 trillion in stock market value.  

A couple of days later, we got a one-day rally of 9%. 

And Wall Street’s “fear gauge,” the VIX, exploded to rare heights… 

On April 8, the VIX closed above 50. We’ve only seen this level or higher in 2008, 2009, and 2020. 

This isn’t your grandfather’s stock market…. or your father’s. 

When markets can move that much – often on as little as a social media post – you’re dealing with a new kind of market entirely. 

And with geopolitical conflict rising around the world… the pace of technological progress upending entire industries… and intense political battles playing out across America, we can expect more intense volatility ahead. It’s what my friends at The Freeport Society call the Age of Chaos.

Add in the widespread adoption of AI on Wall Street, and the rules of investing and trading are being rewritten. 

Now, thanks to the breakthrough my team and I have made, these powerful trading tools are no longer locked away inside billion-dollar quant funds. 

Invest Alongside AI, Not Against It 

According to a report from the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission), hedge funds deploying AI-driven trading strategies outperformed their peers by an average of 12%.  

TradeSmithGPT can do better. 

In our backtesting, it identified setups with potential gains as high as 776%. 

Of course, that’s just one example. 

In backtesting, it also flagged… 

  • A 153% win on Spotify (SPOT)… 
  • A 172% win on Eli Lilly (LLY)… 
  • A 339% gain on Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSM)…
  • A 102% gain in seven days on RingCentral (RNG)…
  • A 103% gain in two days from EPAM Systems (EPAM)… 
  • A 474% gain in 18 days from United Airlines (UAL)… and
  • And 776% in 17 days from GoDaddy (GDDY).

All in a matter of days. 

Now, not every trade can be a winner. You should never invest more money than you can afford to lose. 

But if you want to invest alongside AI like the top players on Wall Street, this new software is something you’ll want to have on your radar. 

In my live demo of TradeSmithGPT yesterday, I revealed exactly what this new breakthrough AI software is, how it works, and why it will be critical to your success in the markets throughout 2025. 

If you missed the action, don’t worry. You can view the replay here – but only for a limited time

And by acting now, you’ll be ready to seize three new opportunities TradeSmithGPT just flagged… which will drop on Tuesday, July 1.  

After that, the replay comes down and I can’t promise you’ll ever see it again.  

Go here now – and you’ll have three fresh trade opportunities ready for you on Tuesday.
