The next Buffett has been discovered in Sydney. Below, discover a special announcement regarding our new recruit… his two top ASX picks, including names, codes and how you can profit today!

Attention  Motley Fool reader…

You're the first to hear our big news. We've stumbled on a stock-market discovery so important it qualifies as not only an Australian first… but also a global first!

It's true: This is the much-anticipated debut of our new recruit. He has never before shared his amazingly profitable trading recommendations with the public, anywhere.

Until now, he's kept his operations a closely guarded secret. In fact, he barely leaves the house!

Yet this "new addition" is a preternatural stock-picking talent with his finger wrapped around the absolute pulse of the market. And he's ready to share his top two ASX picks with you today…

A special project 9 months in the making

In 2012, news broke that 16-year-old American actress Rachel Fox was operating her own day-trading operation, prompting media outlets to ask "Is this the next Buffett?"

Excited investors piled in, eager to sample this newbie's best short-term profit ideas — including some 340 trades in just one year!

I was especially excited to skim the headlines… You see, I was keen to identify talent to expand our Motley Fool investment team. So, to better serve you, our valued readers, I attempted to hire this 16-year-old day trader.

Unfortunately, in the end, we could only convince Joe Magyer, the advisor of U.S. service Motley Fool Inside Value, to join our team. (Joe's own Hollywood career fell flat after he was turned down for "Real Housewives of Atlanta" — but that's a tale for another time.)

Sure, since Joe Magyer took over Motley Fool Inside Value in July 2010, his average monthly pick has outperformed the S&P 500 handily…

But his insistence on so-called fundamental analysis and sustainable competitive advantages doesn't exactly promise the kind of amazing short-term gains day traders claim.

Fortunately… I never gave up the idea of bringing you youthful, untested talent boasting an unverified track record. I kept my eyes peeled and my ears open. Frankly, I wasn't getting a lot of sleep.

Then came a "cry in the night"… a stunning realisation… and now I'm pleased to introduce you to our newest team member!

The hand that rocks the cradle

Before we go on, you must understand: Just like you, I once believed that only bottoms-up analysis and a long-term, buy-and-hold strategy could lead to successful investing.

It took a great deal of convincing for me to see the truth. In fact, it's taken nearly three months, all told.

When our new investment analyst first threw a bottle onto my copy of The Australian Financial Review — he's not much of a talker — I scarcely noticed. The 32nd time, though, I took note.

And I realised something. He was picking stocks! Only he didn't want to hold these shares for the long term. His thinking shifted every fifteen minutes. At moments, the shares made him cry. At others, he wanted a change… or just smiled and laughed.

In fact, in total, he was attempting to place hundreds or even thousands of profitable trades each day. One simply had to pay close attention, constantly.

Finally, I leaned in, keen to understand the secret of his strategy…

"Buy and hold is dead," he spluttered. "Now give me your mobile so I can phone my broker."

This trader's two best ASX picks!

Below, we'll reveal this trader's identity for the first time ever.

In the meantime, let's discuss his two top picks for investors like you.

Don't worry about the recent rally of the S&P / ASX 200 (ASX: XJO) (Index: ^AXJO). Forget the ASX's great success stories like Commonwealth Bank (ASX: CBA) or any of the other "Big Four" banks… Forget Woolworths (ASX: WOW), Australian retailer extraordinaire… Our new analyst has uncovered some ASX stocks with truly massive upside.

Pick #1: ASX: OUR

A tiny, highly speculative numinarium (a rare-earth metal used in iPads and nappies) mining company set to explode! Please note that our new investment advisor doesn't mean for you to hold these shares more than 10 minutes — even less if at all possible. Get in and get out, don't cry and secure a possible 13,298% profit!

Pick #2: ASX: KID

This up-and-coming retailer is our very first "short" recommendation. Call your broker now to place your trade. And be sure to tell him that "KID" sent you… Then simply sit back and collect your 35,356% return, made in just minutes!

These ideas are so good – and you'll only hold them for such a short amount of time – that you don't even need their names. Besides, our new analyst has trouble pronouncing them!

A stunning breakthrough

No investment operation anywhere has ever put forward an investment analyst quite like our new hire.

It's unlike any day-trading operation the world has ever seen. And we fully expect to earn 1,413% per month forever… with a new system so simple, even a baby could do it.

Make no mistake: The world is speeding up. High-frequency trading is taking over. At The Motley Fool, we're ready to join the party!

The long-term strategy that has worked for decades — almost unchallenged — is finally done. Over. Spent. It's time for the next generation to take over.

You'll see why we're saying… Move over, Buffett. There's a new kid in town. Buffett may have experience, but we've got youth. While Buffett reads boring annual reports nonstop, our new recruit has never read an annual report… Or anything at all.

And we think you'll be both surprised and charmed. Not only with your successful day trades, but also with our unconventional new analyst…

Ian Phillips - Day Trader

Scott's 12 week-old son, Ian, has proven to be a preternatural stock-picking talent, correct a stunning 11 times out of 10 when it comes to profitable day-trading ideas… a record no other baby anywhere can match.

 

 

 

 

Stay tuned. Tomorrow, we'll post even more details about Ian Phillips, our brand-new investment analyst.

Yours Foolishly,

 

 

Scott Phillips

Motley Fool Share Advisor

Disclosure: Scott doesn't own any shares in OUR or KID, but does have a beneficial interest in a sophisticated joint ownership arrangement of a derivative combination known as  "OUR KID". Ian doesn't have any interest in any of the companies mentioned — at this age, he's interested in almost everything that goes on around him, but not much of it makes sense yet! Click here to view The Motley Fool's disclosure policy.
