About Martin Zweig: During the 15 years it was tracked, Zweig’s stock recommendation newsletter returned an average of 15.9 percent annually and was ranked No. 1 based on risk-adjusted returns by Hulbert Financial Digest during that time. Zweig has managed both investment and hedge funds throughout his career and has used the wealth he has accumulated for some interesting purposes. He owned the most expensive apartment in New York, according to Forbes, a $70 million penthouse atop the Pierre Hotel in Manhattan, and he is a collector of all kinds of pop culture and historical memorabilia – his purchases include the gun he used Clint Eastwood in “Dirty Harry,” a stock certificate signed by Commodore Vanderbilt and even two old-fashioned gas pumps similar to the ones he saw at a nearby gas station during his childhood in Cleveland, it is said in the publication reports.
