"What is Swing Trading and How Can it Help You to Buy and Sell?"Written by Joseph Sgro
Trading is my game, but every now and then I discover NEW resources that I like my readers to find out about too - especially when they are "best sellers".The purpose of this article is to bring two resources to your attention. One of these is about "swing trading", which is one of my favorite trading methods. I use "ABC Method" and I will write another article to present my method another time. Trading stocks using this method is easy and I am going to give away copies of this book as a special bonus to anyone who likes my trading package offer containing 21 bonuses. Ever heard of Napoleon Hill? Well, he was guy who wanted to discover "why rich became rich". He set off to interview very famous people of his day like "Andrew Carnegy". He wanted to find out what made these people different to everyone else and created a master plan others could follow and documented what he found.
| | Inflation Proof Your Investment Portfolio with ETF’sWritten by John J. Lah, MBA, CFA
Even though inflation has been relatively quiet in U.S. since late 1980’s, there now appears to be some strong evidence that it may be starting to heat up again with an expanding economy, combined with skyrocketing oil and housing prices in certain key regions of country. While Federal Reserve has been raising key interest rates citing threat of rising inflation, cautious message coming out from Feds are that, inflation is still benign and not yet a threat. Inflation is benign? Excuse me, but cheapest gas I can find anywhere in this area is $2.23 a gallon, which is up almost 50% from last year and housing prices in my Howard County, MD neighborhood have more than doubled in past five years.Inflation should really be a major concern for all investors because it reduces value of their savings over time. History has also shown that traditional investment in financial instruments, such as stocks and bonds typically fare poorly in face of sharply rising inflation, as evidenced by savage decline experienced during last bout of serious inflation during 1970’s. Fortunately for investors, there have been quiet a bit of improvements made in financial markets since 1970’s, and investors now have a great deal more options available to help protect their portfolio from scourge of inflation. One of best and easiest ways investors can diversify their portfolio is through use of Exchange Traded Funds, commonly referred to as ETFs. ETFs you might recall are similar to passive index based mutual funds, but they can be bought and sold in market just like stocks. There are currently more than 170 different ETFs (and still growing!) that investors can choose from, and these ETFs cover full gamut from domestic stock index to fixed income, international and even real estate and commodity related.
