Dear Investor,
Are you tired of watching Wall Street insiders grow their wealth while your own investments stagnate or fall behind? Over the past 15 years, average investors have struggled to keep pace, while seasoned pros like Kip Herriage and elite institutional players have consistently found ways to thrive. Even during the worst economic downturns.
Since founding Vertical Research Advisory (VRA), Kip has helped thousands of independent investors follow the smart money, stay ahead of market shifts, and protect their capital. Through proprietary macro analysis, sector rotation, and a high-conviction stock selection process, the VRA Insider Portfolio has become a trusted roadmap for serious investors looking to do better than traditional funds or mainstream advice.
Unfortunately, the strategies that deliver massive returns for hedge funds and billionaires are not made available to the everyday investor.
WHY?
The SEC restricts access to these investment vehicles by requiring investors to be ‘accredited,’ meaning a net worth of $1 million or more and even if you meet that threshold, most hedge funds aren’t accepting new money. These managers aren’t looking for new clients. They’re managing their own wealth and trying to simplify their operations, not add complexity.
But there is someone that did.
The VRA Insider Portfolio changes the game. You don’t need to be a millionaire. You don’t need to be invited into a private hedge fund and you don’t need to give your money to anyone else to grow it.
Break away from the herd … and stand on the
shoulders of wall street giants
Take Kip’s early call on the post-COVID rebound: while mainstream media peddled fear, Kip guided VRA Insiders into high-growth stocks like Nvidia, Bitcoin miners, and energy plays that went on to deliver substantial gains. Kip didn’t just get it right he helped everyday investors profit from it.
What if you could learn how to think like Kip? What if you had a weekly roadmap showing you where he sees opportunity, how he manages risk, and what’s next?
We’re here knocking on your door, right now, with the solution.
And the best part is…
You don’t need to be an accredited investor…
You don’t need a million-dollar net worth…
You don’t need an expensive advisor or complicated strategy…
This One simple step is your key to investing like
a billionaire!
VRA Insider Portfolio is your direct line to the elite playbook that has helped Kip Herriage and Vertical Research Advisory beat the market 18 of the last 21 years.
Kip has spent over two decades identifying the most explosive opportunities across tech, energy, financials, and emerging sectors often before Wall Street catches on. This is not about mirroring billionaires. It’s about using proprietary insights to get in front of the trend, riding high-conviction trades from breakout to full-blown rally.
The VRA Insider Portfolio zeroes in on Kip’s top ideas his personal analysis and high-conviction positions rooted in over 40 years of market experience. These aren’t theories or speculations; they’re the same strategic investments he shares with VRA Insider Members.
Here’s how the VRA Insider Portfolio works:
- We distill Kip’s top macroeconomic themes and trend signals into stock-specific opportunities.
- We track Kip’s actual positions and updates weekly so you’re never left behind on a market move.
- We tell you what he’s buying, when he’s trimming, and why a trend is gaining momentum.
- You follow the strategy that’s already helped thousands of subscribers protect and grow their capital.
It’s that straightforward. When Kip identifies an opportunity play, we make it easy to act. No hedge fund lockups. No fees. Just institutional-quality insights delivered to you in plain language…And make no mistake Kip puts his money where his mouth is. He’s buying into these positions with scale.
Profit from following the best:
Through VRA’s proprietary research, Kip filters through thousands of stocks to uncover what he believes are the most asymmetric risk/reward setups in the market today.
These are the exact types of trades that helped subscribers ride generational returns in names like Nvidia, Bitcoin miners, gold equities, and defense plays. And it’s how they’ve successfully positioned for the next “Big Bribe” shift in U.S. fiscal and monetary policy.
Just look at some of the names the VRA Insider Portfolio has recently spotlighted:
let start with GGP …

This setup had all the signs of a breakout trade and for good reason.
Kip Herriage, co-founder of Vertical Research Advisory, recognized that Bitcoin was nearing a new phase in its institutional adoption cycle. While the mainstream media hesitated and skeptics raised concerns, Kip pinpointed the critical moment when capital was quietly rotating in.
Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (BITB) – Positioned for Bitcoin’s next leg higher following institutional flows.
Kip recommended exposure as institutional inflows began to quietly push Bitcoin’s price off its 2022 lows. The blue box on the chart indicates the VRA entry zone and the “smart money” phase.
The opportunity in this call came from understanding market psychology, ETF behavior, and the broader trend of decentralization and currency debasement themes Kip and the VRA team have been tracking for years.
This isn’t just another crypto bet. This is positioning ahead of a narrative shift that fuels powerful, exponential moves.
And this one? It delivered a surge of more than 200% off the lows, with plenty of room to run.
While gains like this aren’t expected every time, VRA’s strength lies in its ability to recognize high-conviction inflection points before the crowd catches on.
You get more bang for your buck.
That’s the VRA Insider advantage…

Another time where VRA members were ahead of the curve on Nvidia (NVDA) a name Kip Herriage and the team identified as a core play during the rise of the AI supercycle. We didn’t just buy the hype. We tracked the price action, earnings momentum, and global tailwinds from AI adoption across industries and we took action at the right moments.
This wasn’t a one-time trade. Kip called key pivot levels throughout Nvidia’s surge riding the strength, locking in gains, and reloading at support. The result: multiple rounds of triple-digit returns for members who followed the alerts. Did we just know something?
Of Course.
If you’ve been following the VRA Insider Playbook, you’ve seen how Kip’s strategy consistently positions our members to profit from market-defining trends. And Nvidia is one of the best examples of that success.
Next up is a core name tied to global forces that are shaping our future: defense. Let’s take a look at the setup on Lockheed Martin (LMT) a stock that’s earned a top spot in the VRA portfolio as geopolitical tensions intensify worldwide.

This chart is a clear reminder of why following the VRA Insider Playbook can change everything for individual investors.

When most of Wall Street was distracted by tech earnings or the latest economic headlines, Kip Herriage identified a shift in the global order and took action. Through VRA’s research, Lockheed Martin was highlighted at multiple key levels as a must-own name for the growing defense supercycle.
While the mainstream media downplayed the escalation in global military spending, Kip saw the writing on the wall. LMT was a position added with conviction, based on mounting geopolitical tension, defense budget increases, and its unique position as a cornerstone U.S. defense contractor.
This wasn’t a hype trade. It was a move rooted in strategy. And the stock delivered: surging over 30% during a period when the broader market was choppy and uncertain.
The VRA Insiders who followed this call got the opportunity to ride a national trend before it became the front-page headline.
This is what sets VRA apart. It’s not just about spotting opportunity. It’s about understanding how to act on it.
That’s a homerun indeed
Let’s move on to the next chart…

The VRA Insider Portfolio has remained bullish on gold and miners through multiple market cycles, and our long-standing position in **Gold Miners ETF (GDX)** continues to be a core example of tactical conviction.
Kip Herriage, with a deep understanding of global macro dynamics, has long warned about the erosion of fiat currencies through non-stop money printing and reckless monetary policy. As inflation pressures mounted and central banks danced around rate hikes and cuts, Kip positioned members of the VRA community to capitalize.
One of the earliest calls came during a period of macro consolidation when most investors were too spooked by volatility to act. Kip wasn’t guessing he was reading the Fed’s playbook, anticipating the pivot points that would inject new momentum into commodities, especially gold.
Want more? How about this insight…

When Kip issued his buy alert to VRA Insiders, it wasn’t just about owning a mining ETF it was a hedge against systemic risk and a play on sound money.
Since then, **GDX** has staged multiple rallies, offering members the opportunity to scale in and out, take profits, and reload. Kip has continued to reemphasize its role as a portfolio cornerstone for those who understand that the Fed’s next move is always just one crisis away from another round of quantitative easing.
The Stock more than tripled.
Up next, let’s take a look at a key leader that’s also earned its place in the VRA Insider Portfolio open position…

In today’s market, few sectors are drawing more attention than energyand within that, nuclear power stands out.
NuScale Power Corp (SMR) is our VRA Insider pick in the nuclear energy space. It’s an open position we’re continuing to monitor closely. While traditional energy players have dominated headlines, SMR represents an innovative shift small modular reactors that could become critical to future infrastructure.
This one is early, but high-opportunity posistion. It’s exactly the kind of asymmetric opportunity our members love.
A double in about eight months.
It shows that standout results aren’t limited to just large-cap names.
At VRA, we’ve uncovered big winners across sectors like tech, gold, energy, and even crypto. This is just a glimpse of what the VRA Insider Portfolio delivers.
Our edge comes from identifying powerful macro and market shifts before they show up in headlines.
It’s a strategy built for momentum and conviction—not guesswork.
We’ve seen moves play out within weeks or months because our timing is driven by data, not hype.
We don’t sit on stale ideas. We rotate into the strongest names with the clearest upside.
These are companies with breakout potential, rising volume, and real-world catalysts behind them.
Our members don’t just hold stocks. They hold positions Kip believes in, with research to back them.

This is what it means to be inside the VRA playbook.
