At MicroCapClub we want to provide exposure for members that are driven to provide content for the public blog. The information on the blog is mostly for educational purposes as it relates to the microcap market place. Each contributor shares a passion for the microcap arena and brings a unique skill set and investment philosophy that can provide real value for new and experienced microcap investors.

Ian Cassel

Now he loses less. Ian created MicroCapClub as a place for experienced micro cap investors to share and discuss ideas.

He is currently located in the Philadelphia area where he manages assets for a Family Office consisting of both traditional and alternative asset classes.

Mike King

Mike has almost two decades of investing experience primarily in micro caps. He became a full-time private investor and trader in 2006 after his investing hobby became more profitable than his corporate job managing the development of software for cellular telephones. His specialty is in finding rapidly growing, profitable micro caps that are extremely undervalued and unknown. He spends most of his day turning over every rock he can find to locate those hidden gems.

Chris Lahiji

Chris is a private investor focusing on micro cap companies. His goal is to own 1% of a company at a $10 million valuation, and then sell it once it reaches a billion dollar valuation. Sadly (and not surprisingly), this has yet to happen. Chris also manages LD Micro. www.ldmicro.com

Sean Marconi

Sean started analyzing micro cap companies at the age of 18 and has been hooked ever since. True Religion (TRLG) was his first experience seeing a company go from .75 to 25 dollars over a 4 year period. He enjoys visiting companies and “kicking the tires” as an integral part of his research. Sean enjoys finding the real gems in microcap, doing extensive due diligence, and communicating with other likeminded investors.

Mark Vonderwell is a private investor with 18 years experience in the stock market. He now focuses almost exclusively on spinoffs, divestures, strategy changes, and other special situations looking for growth at a value price. His most successful special situation investment went up 100 times in 18 months. Somehow he was both in too soon and out too soon so that he managed to only double his money. Online he goes by his childhood nickname “googie”. He’s married to a beautiful “stock widow” and has four spinoffs hitting their teen years.
