After reading Timothy Sykes' debut book "An American Hedge Fund," YOUNG MONEY Magazine decided to make him their cover story for the November 2007 issue.

The article, Wall Street's Bad Boy reads, "Due to SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) regulations, hedge funds are often a "hush hush" topic and Sykes wants to break the silence and bring back "honesty to the stock market." With his philosophy of "freedom of finance," he hopes to create an environment conducive to free speech for hedge fund managers.......

.......Sykes said he likes to think of himself as a bit of a "financial cowboy," opening up the stock market frontier for anyone who wants to explore it. "I am an idealist.....I want to change the [negative] connotation associated with financial speculation," he said......

..........In the meantime, Sykes wants to "inspire people to follow their passions." The investor encourages young people to tap into what he calls "nontraditional talent." In fact, Sykes believes in motivating young people so much that he is the benefactor of "The Timothy Sykes Day Trading Award for the Talented," an award open to all Tulane students, faculty, and alumni."
