Investing in the Big Secular Market Trends - Mike Swanson (12/29/08)

Submitted by Mike Swanson on Mon, 2008-12-29 10:18.

Andy Emerson and I made this video about investing in the big market trends a few weeks ago. It is so easy to get caught up in the daily fluctuations in the market, but sometimes it is important to take a step back to see where the market is in the big picture. The best way to make money in the market is to align yourself with the dominant market trends. To do that you need to know the big secular trend, the yearly trend, and the weekly trends. Today we talk about the secular trend.

 

If you have trouble loading up this video you can watch it in lower quality by going to youtube.

Over the next few weeks we'll follow up with videos about the big trends of 2009 and how to profit from them. We expect next year to be much different than 2008 and you'll need to adjust to that fact to make money.

Look out for these follow up videos, because they will prepare you for 2009. Also on January 14th we will be opening up the premium membership section of this site to 500 new people. We last did this in October for 300 people and the seats filled up in just a few hours. We'll have more details about what you can get in the premium section later on. Even if this isn't for you do not miss the follow up videos we will be putting out over the next few weeks as they will get into more specifics then today's first video.

Hello. My name is Mike Swanson. I’m the best-selling author of the book Strategic Stock Trading. In a former life I used to run a hedge fund from 2003 to 2006 that generated a return of over 78% during that time frame. In fact it was ranked in the top 35 out of 5,000 hedge funds in 2005.

After I retired from the hedge fund world I setup this website and blog. If you sign up for my free weekly email list below I’ll send you an update on average about once a week on my views of the current stock market trends and share with you actionable investment ideas.

Now I cannot promise you that every stock I find will go up in value. I can’t promise you endless 100% returns as others claim they do and as all the disclaimers say past performance does not necessarily predict future performance and you can lose all of your money in the stock market.

This is reality.

What I can promise you is my dedication to doing the best I can for you.

You see the key to making money over the long-run in the stock market is to manage your risk. Once you sign up to my newsletter I’ll send you a series of educational videos and writings showing you how I use stop-loss orders to cut any potential losses and how I use my two fold formula system that combines fundamental and technical analysis to pick stocks. My goal is to risk one dollar to try to make at least three dollars in my trades by looking for stocks that are priced cheaply on a valuation basis, have high earnings growth, and have excellent chart patterns.

So join my list below and let me help guide you on your journey in the stock market.
