JIM JUBAK JOINS MONEYSHOW.COM AS SENIOR MARKETS EDITOR
25-year veteran journalist to write column, post blog entries, and record weekly videos for leading investment education
Web sites MoneyShow.com and MSN Money
SARASOTA, FL, August 12, 2009 – MoneyShow.com, a multimedia online community for
investors and traders, announced today that Jim Jubak, the Web’s most widely read investment
columnist, will join the MoneyShow.com editorial team as senior markets editor.
Jubak will write two columns a week, post blog entries every weekday, and produce weekly
video segments about the markets, the economy, and individual stocks he follows.
Longtime content partners MSN Money and MoneyShow.com have increased the value of their
partnership by adding Jim Jubak to the MoneyShow.com editorial team and carrying his content
on both Web sites concurrently.
From now on, every buy and sell recommendation Jubak makes in his Jubak’s Picks will appear
in regular blog entries on both MoneyShow.com and MSN Money. In addition, he will post
video segments each week that provide forward-looking views of various sectors and stocks as
well as insights into the financial markets and the economy.
For more than a decade, Jubak’s regular column, Jubak’s Journal, developed a devoted readership in
the millions on MSN Money. An independent study by Nielsen NetRatings in 2007 revealed he was
the most widely read investment columnist on the Internet. His Jubak’s Picks portfolio returned
239% from May 1997 until June 30, 2009, significantly outperforming the Standard & Poor’s 8%
gain during that time.
“Jim Jubak is a brilliant commentator, and his track record is the envy of most professional money
managers,” said Howard Gold, executive editor of MoneyShow.com. “Yet he remains fiercely
independent and devoted to helping individual investors meet their financial goals. I’m thrilled he’s
joining MoneyShow.com.”
“I can still remember my first MoneyShow workshop two booms and two busts ago,” said Jim
Jubak. “Investing hasn’t gotten any simpler since then. But I feel that the Internet has let all of us
investors build a huge extended family. I’m happy to deepen my relationship with MoneyShow.com
and its users.”
Jim Jubak was awarded a Knight-Bagehot fellowship in business journalism from Columbia
University and has been in financial journalism for 25 years. He was editor of Venture magazine and
senior editor at Worth magazine before joining MSN Money as senior markets editor in 1997. He has
written three books, most recently The Jubak Picks, published by Crown Business.
