Tom Winnifrith

Tom Winnifrith, the founder of t1ps.com in 2000, started his career in the City before moving to The Investors Chronicle. He starred in TV's Show Me The Money and was the founder of Red Hot Penny Shares (RHPS) as well as being a contributing editor to Shares Magazine.

Evil Knievil

Fresh from making £1 million shorting Northern Rock, the man the Daily Mail dubbed ‘The King of the Short Sellers’ (otherwise known as Simon Cawkwell) is Britain's most feared bear-raider. A trained accountant, he made his name exposing the fiction that were Bob Maxwell's accounts. Evil does not give investment advice on this website but three times a week he chats to his faithful diarist - Tom Winnifrith. His diarist then writes and takes full responsibility for the Evil Knievil diaries.

Robert Sutherland – Smith

Robert started his career in fund management and has seen numerous stock market and eco­nomic cycles and (as he likes to wryly comment) one or two short lived ‘new paradigms’ of stock market and eco­nomic possibility, like the dot com boom at the end of the 20th century. An economist by education, his first job was as trainee equity ana­lyst with the long vanished broking partnership de Zoete & Gorton. After that, he worked as a fund manager for the Unilever Pension fund and subsequently as the head of financial and investment man­agement research at Merchant Bankers Samuel Montagu, leaving as it merged with what is now HSBC. Appointed a director of County Bank Investment Managers, he managed both group and client funds going on to advise the Friends Provident to set up its first discretionary fund management busi­ness. He was a broker/analyst during and after the ‘Big Bang’ sub­sequently directing the research side of investment bankers Quartz Capital Partners which specialised in raising capital for new enter­prises in the US, Europe and the UK. In recent years he has written for and edited publications devoted to equity investment in both small and large companies.
