ExperienceTimothy Sykes began his trading career as a teenager, turning $12,415 in Bar Mitzvah gift money into over $1.65 million by day trading penny stocks while attending Tulane University, where he graduated in 2003 with a degree in Philosophy and Business. During his senior year, he founded Cilantro Fund Management, a short-bias hedge fund that was ranked #1 in its category from 2003 to 2006. Growing disillusioned with the hedge fund world, he pivoted to financial education, launching TimothySykes.com in 2007 as a trading alerts and education platform. In 2011, he co-founded Profit.ly, a trade-transparency social network that holds traders publicly accountable for both wins and losses. He is also the author of the best-selling book An American Hedge Fund and has been featured in major media outlets including CNN, CNBC, ABC, Forbes, and The New York Times. Beyond trading, Sykes co-founded Karmagawa, a charitable foundation that has built over 100 schools globally and donated millions to humanitarian and environmental causes.
