Palm Beach Gardens, FL – July 21, 2008 – Weiss Capital Management, Inc. (WCM), an independent Registered Investment Adviser announced today that it has retained industry expert Mike Burnick as its new Director of Research and Client Communications.

Formerly Senior Editor and Director of Research for the Sovereign Society, a membership-only investment research firm headquartered in Delray Beach, Fla., Burnick will now lead Weiss Capital Management’s investment research and client communications efforts. Burnick’s regular commentaries and reports will now offer prospective and current Weiss Capital Management clients with in-depth industry information and analysis.

“As investors struggle to cope with the first bear market in many years, there has never been a better time to communicate with current and prospective clients at Weiss Capital Management,” said Burnick.

“While the firm has cultivated key relationships and a number of successes over time – including a bear market strategy that posted 40%+ gains from inception (December 31, 2000) through the end of the last bear market (March 31, 2003), media and the investment community are only recently taking notice of our innovative and timely wealth management strategies.” (Click here for complete Bear Program Performance)
