Everything You Need to Know to Make Money In Bull and Bear Markets

Market experts regularly sing the praises of the revered buy-and-hold strategy, a winning approach in bull markets. But where are those experts when regularly occurring bear markets maul investors' portfolios? In fact, where were you during the most recent collapse, in 2000-2002, when investors who blindly followed the buy-and-hold method were forced to stand-and-watch as years of investment profits were rapidly erased?

Probably holding and praying. So much for the experts.

All About Market Timing provides easy-to-implement market-timing strategies designed to help you ride bull markets while sidestepping bear markets. Built around a handful of mechanical, time-tested strategies, this long-overdue book flies in the face of the experts and their "advice" to show you how relatively easy it can be to keep your portfolio growing as other investors get crushed in every bear stampede.

The number-one key to investing is to preserve your capital. Let All About Market Timing show you how to do just that, by turning your back on the always risky--and oftentimes lethal--buy-and-hold approach.
