October 2, 2007 GorillaTrades Unmasked

Business Week looks at GorillaTrades:

But does the gorilla deliver for investors? A BusinessWeek analysis of the service's picks found they performed far worse than the stock market as a whole.

The company has attracted attention thanks to its quirky approach and heavy advertising. It has refused to divulge the identity of the firm's founder and chief spokesman, who calls himself "the gorilla." Nor does it give out results on the overall performance of his picks. However, BusinessWeek has learned that the gorilla is a former stockbroker named Ken Berman, in Jupiter, Fla., who has confirmed that fact in an interview.
