How to Profit When Billionaires Battle - A Plan

By Shah Gilani, Chief Investment Strategist, Money Morning • @ShahGilani_TW - December 26, 2013

Editor's Note: Shah shared this true "billionaires' brawl" on Dec. 17th. Today, as promised, he'll show you how to make money from it. Take notes...
Sure, the Herbalife game that pitted Bill Ackman against David Einhorn, Dan Loeb, Carl Icahn, and the rest of the billionaire boys' club was a tad bit personal.
It was also professional, very professional.
All the billionaires playing the Herbalife game are professional money managers. They made their mega fortunes in the markets.

But you don't have to be a billionaire to make money in the game.
In fact, you can play the same game and profit nicely by understanding how to follow their lead.
After all, that's what they're doing.

This is the true story about two billionaires' egos, their trading games, and what happens when they clash over the same stock.

It's a story you can profit from, too...
