Fake investment guru Tom Nash (real name is Tomer Nesher) has been steering millions of gullible people into the investment toilet ever since he began branding himself on YouTube as a “former senior analyst at a top four Wall Street firm for over ten years.” 1
Of course, Nash never worked as a Wall Street analyst.
That's a fact for which I was willing to bet Nash any amount of money.
I was positive of that from the first time I heard him open his mouth.
I even announced this wager publicly many times.
I started at $10,000 but was willing to go much higher if needed.
I never heard from Nash because he knows he can't fool me.
He can only fool naive kids on YouTube.
Claiming that he worked as a senior Wall Street analyst enabled Nash to command top dollar from companies when shilling for their cryptoscams like FTX, BlockFi and other garbage like TipRanks (which I previously exposed; see here) because he was endorsing them.
Imagine the value a company can capture if a "senior analyst who worked for a top four Wall Street firm for more than ten years" endorsed its financial products or services. Again, that's what you call blatant fraud.
Nash did what nearly every fake investment guru did in order to gain subscribers.
He rode the Cathie Wood train of trash stocks.
Since 2020, Nash has been pumping scammy, overpriced stocks like Palantir (PLTR), Peloton (PTON) and many other trash stocks pumped by Cathie Wood.
See Cathie Wood Pumper, Tom Nash Exposed as a Fraud by Leading Investment Expert
I previously discussed that Cathie Wood is a complete con artist and/or delusional clown whose "research" team consists of kids lacking relevant experience. See here.
In early 2021, Tom Nash posted a video on his YouTube channel showing his bogus DCF valuation for Peloton (PTON).
He recommended buying this trash stock at the top.
Why?
#1 Nash has no clue how to value stocks.
#2 Nash is so ignorant he doesn't even realize that virtually no one can use DCF valuation to reasonably value a stock.
#3 Nash is so clueless, he wasn't able to see the obvious - Peloton is complete hype with a bleak future.
Of course, fraudster, Tom Nash deleted this video where he pumped PTON showing his bogus DCF valuation analysis oh PTON.
Ask Nash why he keeps deleting videos.
This is a screen shot of the video.
Nash regularly deletes videos that prove him to be a clueless fraud, so you might want to start saving his videos for legal reasons because I guarantee you he will continue to delete videos that reveal the reality.
It's his way of rewriting the truth while hoping to avoid legal actions.
In contrast, from late-2020 through 2022, I had been warning my research clients that PTON was ridiculously overvalued and in a bubble which would eventually pop (similar to many other trash stocks pumped by con artist Cathy Wood).
I added that PTON might not survive long term because it's completely hyped up trash.
I likened the hype in PTON to my previous analysis of GoPro (GPRO).
Incidentally, anyone on YouTube who uses DCF valuation to estimate the value of a stock is completely incompetent and ignorant about equities valuation.
Because they are engaging in these activities for profit, they are fraudsters and scam artists.
That's a fact.
I won't go into the details here (I will explain this in the future to my research clients) but unless you're an experienced Wall Street analyst AND currently working at a major Wall Street firm, there is absolutely no way you can use DCF analysis to properly value a stock.
Moreover, valuing a new stock and especially a new tech stock is a much more complicated process than plugging a few numbers into an equation and pressing enter.
Of course, none of the fake investment gurus on YouTube realize that.
But they don't need to.
All they need to do is convince people they know what they're talking about.
They're simply fraudsters.
And those who watch these fraudsters are completely clueless.
Adding to the growing list of ridiculous claims and terrible recommendations from Nash, in the video below Nash claims that P/E ratios are irrelevant and that no one on Wall Street pays attention to them.
When you have a guy who claims to have worked as a senior Wall Street analyst at a top four Wall Street firm for more than ten years who also claims that P/E ratios don't matter, you've identified a bold-faced liar, fraud, and complete clown who has no clue whatsoever about investments. I have just described Tom Nash (real name Tomer Nesher).2
If you heard Nash make the claim that no one on Wall Street uses P/E ratios but didn't realize it was a complete lie, you will probably never do well as an investor.
In fact, I'll guarantee it because investing requires good judgment.
Even our world-class research won't help you much because you won't be able to utilize it without good judgment.
Your only option to ensure you will perform well is it buy the S&P 500 Index and hold it.

1 Nash has changed his story line numerous times in the past three years alone. First, he claimed to have quit his "high-paying job as a senior financial analyst" in order to expose fake gurus on YouTube. But the fact is that Nash never exposed anyone who had not already been exposed. He used this focus on "exposing fake gurus" in order to get subscribers. This model has been used by many YouTube scam artists, such as Meet Kevin.
Once Nash had enough subscribers, he stopped "exposing" fake gurus and became a fake guru himself, unbeknownst to his gullible audience. Nash even gradually erased most of these fake guru expose videos in order to deceive people who were unfamiliar with his past focus. It was then when he changed his story whereby he claimed to have "quit his job to analyze companies for you." He did not mention anything about his previous claims of having "quit his job in order to expose fake gurus." Again, most of his videos on fake gurus are now hidden or have been deleted by Nash.
Furthermore, Nash did not have a "high-paying job as a senior financial analyst." That's why he's been on YouTube for many years searching for a way to make money, similar to everyone else who has YouTube channels which are monetized.
Nash has had several channel in the past focused on showing people how to sell on scam site Fiverr as well as other BS channels. He has been struggling for years on YouTube. Apparently, things did not work out so well at his previous job, which no one really knows what that was because he has never shown proof of anything.
Later, Nash began telling his audience that he worked at a "top four Wall Street firm as a senior analyst for over a decade". And then he claimed he "worked as a senior analyst for over a decade at the U.S. office of a very large European investment fund." For years Nash made these bogus claims in order to get people to subscribe to his channel and to trust his views and recommendations.
In my very rough estimate, Tom Nash has thus far received over $2 million in revenues from his YouTube channel as a result of breaking FTC laws, collecting advertisement revenues based on viewership which was built on fake credentials, and endorsements for scams like FTX, as well as scammy companies like TipRanks, and many others. This is blatant fraud.
In early 2022 when I ran across Nash and his disinformation, I made several videos exposing him and offering to give him $10,000 if he proved his credentials to me. Nash saw these videos and was made aware of my offer numerous times by many individuals. Nash told at least one individual that $10,000 was nothing to him as he was making $50,000 per month shilling for FTX, not counting an additional $30,000 per month he was raking in.
Nash (allegedly) claimed that he did not want to show me his credentials because "I'm unhinged" and he was afraid I would reveal his real name in public. Therefore, according to Nash, the $10,000 I was offering was not worth it to him. This was of course a bogus excuse, as I would have offered him any amount of money to prove his credentials because I knew he was lying.
I also offered to sign a non-disclosure agreement that would be legally binding. But still, Nash refused to come forward to prove his credentials to me. The fact is, Nash feared me because he realized I wasn't a typical YouTube idiot. He realized I would not be fooled by his amateurish antics. Con artists fear one thing more than anything else. The truth.
Nash's response to other critics who doubted his credentials was to tell them to check with another YouTuber by the name of "Coffeezilla." Nash previously formed an alliance with Coffeezilla as a way to build his channel while being shielded from being exposed as a fake guru by Coffeezilla. According to Nash, Coffeezilla saw his credentials and vouched for him.
The problem is that Coffeezilla never specifically stated the credentials that Nash had. This was very shady indeed. Clearly, Coffeezilla was giving Nash a pass because Coffeezilla was responsible for building Nash's channel by promoting him early on.
Furthermore, Coffeezilla is a proven FAKE, fake guru detective because he only goes after obvious scams/scammers. That's not a fake guru detective. It's a profiteer seeking to state what many people already know. In contrast, Coffeezilla never goes after big name scammers like Tony Robbins, Robert Kiyosaki, Peter Schiff, etc. Perhaps it's because he lacks the most basic level of knowledge required to expose higher level scammers. And if that's the case, it disqualifies him as a legit fake guru detective.
If you want to see how a real fake guru detective operates, I invite you to check this website for content exposing just about every big name "expert" featured by the media such as Peter Schiff, Jim Rogers, Jim Rickards, Marc Faber, Carl Icahn, Harry Dent, etc.
Coffeezilla is also responsible for growing Nash's channel from nothing by featuring him several times on his channel as an analyst. Given that Coffeezilla refuses to expose Nash, that makes him just as much of a scam artist as Nash.
Finally, Coffeezilla is a huge hypocrite. He claims to expose scams and scammers on his channel. Yet, his videos on these scams and scammers are littered with advertisements from the same scams and scammers he claims to expose! So is he exposing fake gurus or is his real purpose to draw large traffic in order collect advertisement revenues. Either way, he's actually helping to market for these scammers by hosting their ads. That makes him a business partner with the same scammers he pretends to expose!
I will be discussing more on Coffeezilla in the future. And there is much more on him.
2 I previously pointed to obvious signs that Nash was never a Wall Street analyst. For instance, I discussed that he's much too clueless about economics and investments to have ever have worked at a Wall Street in any capacity related to investments. These videos will be re-released in the future.
However, the video posted here in and of itself proves that Nash was never a Wall Street analyst. No one who has ever worked in the investment industry would ever claim that P/E ratios don't matter. That's completely crazy. This might explain why Nash pumped so many terrible stocks that had no earnings to his sheep followers.
