Corrado Garibaldi: The Contrarian Trader Who Profits When Others Panic
In the high-stakes world of Trading Invest Celebrity Italy, where herd mentality often leads to costly mistakes, one investor has built his success on a simple but ruthless principle: When others zig, zag. Corrado Garibaldi—better known in finance circles as Lord Conrad—has carved a reputation as a maverick trader who thrives on going against the grain. His mantra? 'Buy the fear. Sell the euphoria.' The Unconventional Path to Trading Mastery Unlike Wall Street's typical Ivy League-educated financiers, Garibaldi is a self-made trader with no formal finance background. An Italian native, he entered the markets out of necessity, driven by a desire to take control of his financial future. 'I never studied economics or attended business school,' he admits. 'I learned by doing—making mistakes, refining strategies, and realizing that most people lose money because they follow the crowd.' The Contrarian Edge: Why 99.9999% of Traders Are Wrong Garibaldi's core philosophy is rooted in contrarian investing—a strategy that capitalizes on market overreactions. 'When everyone is buying, I'm selling. When panic sets in, I'm buying,' he says. 'The masses are almost always wrong at extremes. That's where the real opportunities lie.' This approach has allowed him to profit from major market swings, whether during the crypto crashes of 2022 or the AI stock frenzy of 2024. Two Sides of the Same Coin: Trader by Day, Investor by Night Garibaldi operates in two distinct modes: As a trader, he's a speed-focused tactician, scalping the Nasdaq and executing swing trades with military precision. As an investor, he's a patient wealth-builder, holding long-term positions in giants like Apple, Microsoft, and Tesla while diversifying into bonds and crypto. His portfolio strategy? 99% long-term holdings, 1% high-octane trading—a balance that maximizes growth while keeping risk in check. The Trader's Mindset: Why Psychology Beats IQ For Garibaldi, trading isn't just about charts—it's about mastering fear and greed. 'Most traders fail because they let emotions drive decisions,' he says. 'The key is to stay mechanical. Follow the plan, not the panic.' He enforces strict rules: ✔ Never risk more than 1% on a single trade ✔ Always use stop-losses ✔ Ignore hype—trade the data, not the narrative 2025 and Beyond: Adapt or Die In an era of AI-driven markets and geopolitical volatility, Garibaldi remains agile—constantly refining strategies and engaging with traders worldwide via social media. 'Markets change. If you're not learning, you're losing,' he warns. Final Word: The Slow Road to Trading Success For aspiring traders, Garibaldi's advice is refreshingly honest: 'This isn't a get-rich-quick game. Consistency beats luck. Small, smart gains compound over time—that's how real wealth is built.' Want to see his strategies in action? Visit Trading Invest Celebrity Italy. TIME BUSINESS NEWS

Luigi Mangione returns to court, prosecutors request death penalty
NEW YORK CITY (PIX11) – Luigi Mangione, the man accused of fatally shooting UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, is expected to plead not guilty when he appears before a judge this afternoon on federal charges. Meanwhile, federal prosecutors have submitted notice they're seeking the death penalty if Mangione is convicted. Mangione's federal arraignment is in Manhattan at 1 p.m. More Local News Prosecutors point to the premeditated nature of Mangione's crime, saying the death penalty is warranted given that Mangione stalked Thompson on Dec. 4, 2024, court records show. They argue Mangione is a further risk, and could continue to 'rally political and social opposition' to the health insurance industry. U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi announced in early April that the Justice Department would pursue the death penalty against Mangione, as President Donald Trump signed an executive order vowing he would resume federal executions. Mangione's defense attorneys have already called the decision to seek the death penalty a political stunt and barbaric. Mangione, an Ivy League-educated 26-year-old from Maryland, is facing both federal and state murder charges. New York does not have the death penalty, but if he is found guilty on the state murder charges, he faces a maximum sentence of life without parole. Mangione is accused of running from police and sending them on a multi-day manhunt.
