Book Wall Street s Just Not That into You

Download or read book Wall Street s Just Not That into You written by Roger Davis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-11-03 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you consider yourself a long-term investor? If so, chances are you have parked your money with an advisor and pay little attention to its performance and even less to the amount of risk in your portfolio. You may be told by Wall Street to buy stocks or funds and hold them, or to create a diverse portfolio to protect yourself from risk and downturns in the market. Truth be told, new studies show this approach may not be serving the long-term investor well. In his new book, Roger Davis reveals point-blank that Wall Street's just not that into you. Drawing on an investment career spanning more than two decades, Davis delivers a dynamic and deadly accurate analysis of Wall Street's "one-size-fits-all" approach--and why even wealthy investors should be wary. Davis, who has two decades of experience managing funds, raises valid questions about traditional investment techniques, exposing the inherent dangers of relying on any one technique as a primary risk management tool. As a reader, you will be taught critical, innovative strategies like how to stress test your portfolio and "lose your losers." Davis reveals that most investors are less concerned about making a sizeable return on their investments than they are about protecting their wealth; yet many investors have the same unprotected exposure to the stock market that they did in 2008. This book offers investors specific steps they can take to reduce investment risk and the right questions to ask of their current advisors to understand whether they should make a change. Refreshingly candid and highly informative, Wall Street's Just Not That Into You offers a bold and thought-provoking alternative to the many books that offer up the same old principles of years gone by.

Book excerpt: This book is written for the everyday individual as an eye opener what is currently going on in the financial markets. The author reveals and discloses what your broker, banker and or mutual fund manager is not telling you. Secrets! We’ve all been duped into thinking the traditional model of investing is the way to go. It’s called psychological influence. There is a serious issue right now in our society. 72% of Americans born between the years of 1946-1964, are going back into the work force. You see it everyday. Grandma’s and Grandpa’s working at the cash registers in your local grocery store. How could this be? This is the result of not having the right financial education to assist in proper planning for protecting, growing and preserving their nest eggs. 53% of American households will not have enough for retirement. It’s true. That’s over half of the American population. The Securites & Exchange Commission conducted a study saying half of investors didn’t understand or realize the different levels of care that were provided between brokers, mutual fund managers, bankers and fidiciuaries. That’s a huge problem. The objective of this book is to get the reader to understand what they may not know now, as well as the many options available for you to ride your life right off into the sunset by lowering your risk and increasing your yields in half the time it would in a traditional model. The author reveals the ultimate solution to sustaining your same lifestyle, a healthy lifestyle for years to come. The author understands the value of the family name and the legacy most people want to leave behind. Let the truth be told, most investors are losing more than their making, simply by not being aware. After reading this short impactful book, the reader will be equipped with knowledge on how to protect, grow and preserve their assets for years to come, with a unique investing model that has been around for decades upon decades.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Want to build long-term, sustainable wealth? Then stay out of the stock market! That’s radically different advice from what the "experts" have served up for decades... but look at the miserable results those pundits have delivered! Investors who’ve chosen equity-based buy-and-hold approaches have seen their assets decline dramatically: not just for a year, but often for decades. Fortunately, there are better ways to invest — and Never Buy Another Stock Again reveals them. Renowned Reuters financial journalist David Gaffen first explains why stocks are an even worse short- and long-term investment than you realize. Next, he shows how to create a balanced portfolio that reflects a "big-picture," holistic approach, intelligently incorporating cash, real estate, retirement funds, savings, and other holdings. Gaffen’s strategies rely primarily on investments outside the stock market, while identifying strictly limited roles for mutual funds and ETFs. Readers will learn how to: dramatically reduce investing costs that can kill your returns; invest in an environment where double-digit returns can never be expected; overcome huge flaws in conventional diversification strategies; and offset risks associated with existing equity ownership.

Book Mind  Money   Markets

Download or read book Mind Money Markets written by Dave Harder and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2014-10 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After losing much of his money when the South Sea Bubble burst in 1720, English physicist and mathematician Isaac Newton stated, "I can calculate the motion of heavenly bodies, but not the madness of people." Even though Isaac Newton was a brilliant man, he did not realize that markets function in a way that is opposite to almost everything else we do. For example, if people are lining up around the block to purchase an iPad, it is a sign that it is a good product. If people are lining up around the block to buy a condominium, it is a bad sign for real estate. Markets do not always act in a rational or logical manner. Mind, Money & Markets explains why they act the way they do. It is critical for every person to understand this in order to make wise decisions ranging from buying a home to operating a business. Expert advice is much less reliable than we expect it to be because no one can accurately predict the future on a consistent basis. Gigantic losses like the $6.2 billion trading loss at JP Morgan in 2012 show that investors are not giving momentum (following the trend) the respect it deserves. Mind, Money & Markets offers a momentum filter-specifically, a screening tool from which every individual and professional investor should benefit. The book also provides a "circuit breaker" that enables investors to limit losses in case of an unexpected event in financial markets. Using powerful and poignant analogies from their life experiences, including Dave Harder's twelve years as a Search and Rescue volunteer, we provide readers with a simple discipline to preserve precious hard-earned capital during severe downturns and to outperform benchmarks when markets are in an uptrend. It is easier to know what to do than to actually do it. Psychiatrist Dr. Janice Dorn specializes in helping traders and investors deal with emotions and aspects of human nature that hinder them from making astute investment decisions for stocks, bonds, real estate, currencies, or commodities. We have passed on many words of wisdom collected from market sages and great thinkers. We also highlight some major misconceptions about investing, and show the reader how to overcome them and prosper. With a compelling mixture of fascinating stories and more than 100 colored charts and photographs, this is truly a unique work about how human beings react to markets. The book helps individual as well as professional investors to be efficient with their time and energy by teaching them to focus only on a few factors which have the most significant impact on financial markets. The personalized strategies provided in these pages will enable readers to maximize gains, minimize losses, and have more time to spend on things that matter the most in their lives.
