Today’s Financial News readers write to us

Today's Financial News - Posted August 7, 2008

Baltimore — (TFN): Our colleagues in the newsletter publishing industry may call them “testimonials”… and go out of their way to solicit them from their subscribers for further use in promotions. We like compliments just like everyone else. And if the kind word of a fellow reader can convince you to make TodaysFinancialNews.com part of your daily information routine, who are we to be modest?

The following is a collection of the occasional and unsolicited compliments we have received in recent months. Thank you all for your kindness.

***”Hi Christoph Amberger: I truly miss your stewardship with Taipan. I no longer enjoy reading Taipan as I once used to . It seems like this paper is trying to sell its writing skills instead of giving us truly value added recommendations. Are you planning on starting another newletter soon. If so let me know.” —Kris J

Now, now… I believe Taipan is doing the best they can, even providing animated “webinars” to their customers. We sure do have a new publication: Hot Stock Confidential — and we hope to provide more and even better stock recommendations to our members than we did at Taipan!

***”A small note to Christoph Amberger: I must say that I find your commentary to be the most insightful of any encountered on the web/other media. your casual observations on world/American events & circumstances are totally on the money. I am constantly amazed at your keen awareness of the obvious; which is so often overlooked or ignored by other observers. Obviously, your background &
heritage assists in the direction of your view! Keep it up! I really enjoy your articles/smackdown.” —Terry W

***”Dear Chris, I am confused about what is happening with Taipan lately. The original Taipan publication has shrunk, and there is only one stock recommended per month. Red Zone, of which I also was a member, stopped sending me reports in March and I presume that it is defunct. I have to ask myself if it is worthwhile to continue to subscribe.” —Long time subscriber, Stephen N.

Note: Taipan has been “under new management” since January 1. We can only improve what we have control over…

***”Chris, You nailed that smackdown perfectly. We have become fearful whiners, scared of our own shadow, if we are to believe the mainstream media. Keep up the good work!” —Dan S.

***“I would like to know why Mr. J. Christoph Amberger obviously split off from taipanpublishinggroup.com – or is this wrong?” —C.H., Sao Paolo, Brazil

JCA: The Taipan Group and I parted ways last November for a variety of reasons. I am at heart a financial editor with very clear ideas on how a financial publications should be run — with as few barriers between editor and reader as possible, with recommendations based on genuine research, and actual opportunities in our promotions, not creative fictions. Plus, I am committed to adapting new internet video technologies to our business. My publishing partners had divergent views. Accordingly, I created a new business, TodaysFinancialNews.com, beneath the Agora umbrella, and was lucky enough to interest my core team to join me. The process managers I left behind…
