Description of The Big Tech Score

Praise for THE BIG TECH SCORE



"Filled with great insights and investment wisdom from one of Wall Street′s premier technology analysts. Read it and prosper."–Stephen Waite, Executive Director and Portfolio Manager Trilogy Advisors, LLC



"An investment guide rare in its combination of fluent prose and elevated level of investment wisdom. Michael Kwatinetz, king of high–tech securities analysts, offers his readers a quality of thinking about how to create personal wealth that he used to reserve only for Wall Street′s most elite investors. Unlike most investment gurus, Kwatinetz is honest about the intellectual homework required to hit his 25% annual return goal, but in a most entertaining fashion, he also offers readers the tools to get that work done."–DON KATZ, Business and Technology Columnist, Esquire, Founder and Chairman, Audible, Inc.



"As someone well experienced in the highs and lows of technology investing, Mike Kwatinetz offers a solid strategy that shares his wisdom with the average investor."–DONNA DUBINSKY, CEO, Handspring



"Mike Kwatinetz understood the benefits and potential of Gateway′s business model long before most people on Wall Street knew who we were."–TED WAITT, Founder and Chairman, Gateway



"This insightful book is required reading for investors seeking an effective, yet easily understandable strategy to deploy in today′s supercharged stock market. The advice it dispenses is rock solid. The Big Tech Score is definitely NOT for those who fear the consequences of their own personal financial success."–JOHN KOTEN, Editor–in–Chief, Worth



"Mike Kwatinetz is the closest thing to a market oracle in existence today. Mike moves markets simply because he is so often right. He has an uncanny ability to spot the gorillas long before they′re on anyone else′s radar."–LARRY AUGUSTINE, CEO and Founder, VA Linux



"Mike Kwatinetz is his own man; he does his own thinking–a quality that is all too rare on Wall Street. This separates him from the all–too–frequent consensus thinking of the Street. It is for this reason I listen."–BOB KOMMERSTAD, Chairman, Provident Investment Council
