		<description><![CDATA[Due to the fact that costs of education are constantly growing (both in private and public sectors) it is really important to consider college investment plans. These are plans that are intended for educational purposes only.

So, if you have a child and you want to be sure that he/ she will have an opportunity to study at a university then you should definitely learn as more as possible about college investment plans. Here are some basic aspects to be aware of before you start dealing with this issue.

It's obvious that the key function of this plan is to fund your child's education.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The best investment strategy still involves investment in stocks and bonds, and mutual funds are still the best investment options for most people investing on their own. Now, where do you find the best funds to invest in?

In order to put together your own best investment strategy you will need: access to a variety of investment options, diversification, and a low cost of investing. All three of these requirements can easily be satisfied and simplified if you invest directly with the right fund companies.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Investment is the commitment of money or capital to buy financial instruments or other assets in order to gain profitable returns in form of interest, income, or appreciation of the value of the instrument. Investment is a term normally used in the fields of economics, business management and finance. Your focus in investing is on return and can run the spectrum from conservative to very belligerent in terms of risk.

The best way to defend your stock investments is to own a broad mix of large and small companies and foreign and domestic issues.]]></description>

As anything in our life, money has its own laws. It is impossible to become rich if you do not know basic rules according to which money is working. The secret of wealth is not in earning money, but in saving and multiplying it.

		<description><![CDATA[Over the years, investors have viewed diversification as the one "true free lunch." Indeed, asset classes such as global stock markets, real estate, timber, commodities, managed futures, and other alternative assets - have served their proponents well. On the other hand, some analysts argue that the diversification benefits fall apart at the worst possible moments. This seems to be true, as witnessed by the recent financial crisis, which saw well-diversified portfolios decline by -25% or more.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Finding the best agriculture investment can be tricky for the inexperienced investor with little or no knowledge of the sector, but there are of course many different options available including agriculture investment funds, direct agricultural land investment, and purchasing equities in agricultural companies. In this article I will go some way to explaining the different options, the risks they present to investors, the mechanics of how each type of agriculture investment works, and the returns that are currently being achieved. You can also download a complete agriculture investment guide at the link at the bottom of this article.

Firstly we will look at the relevance of agriculture investment for the current economic climate, and whether this particular sector shows us the signs of being able to generate growth and income.

The Current Economic Climate

The global economy is still in a state of turmoil, and the UK in particular is cutting back public spending to reduce an unmanageable national debt, the population is growing, and quantitative easing is likely to lead us into a period of extended inflation.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Investing with the Pros: Part One of Three

So, you think you can invest? Hopefully after reading this series and taking the advice of some of the financial world's greatest minds, you'll be a success too.

"Free advice is worth the price." - Robert Half

1.	Planning

The first thing to do is to put aside a fixed amount of money for investing, whether it's a portion of your salary or a bonus you were fortunate enough to get. Deciding how much you're prepared to invest (which is essentially how much you're potentially prepared to lose) leaves the rest of your income in tact. The last thing you want is to find yourself unable to buy food or pay rent because you were, as Nassim Nicholas Taleb terms, Fooled by Randomness.

2.	Homework

Only deal in sectors you understand by choosing small companies (often ignored by institutions and analysts) that may be hidden gems.]]></description>

Money management concepts are normally easy to explain and even to understand. The actual problem arises only when you start using these techniques.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With the world economy turning and tumbling and great business empires collapsing overnight, making an investment has become more risky than ever before. This fills the investors with anxiety and the consumers with fear, resulting in further economic recession. But there are several investment methods that remain relatively safe in spite of the conditions of the market.

Without a doubt treasury bonds remain as the safest investment method in a tough economy.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I can't tell you how many times I have heard that the key to making money is "hard work" in the last six months. The new economy appears to have resulted in a 180 degree turn from the mindset of a little more than a year ago when it comes to investment decisions. The overall lack of stability across the board has really shaken the fundamentals of our investing philosophy.

As the credit markets are still very tightly guarded, and as a commercial banker friend of mine recently said, "we are really only loaning money to individuals that have enough money to cover the loan." Many folks are going back to depression era thinking of it is time to tighten up the belts and hit the pavement, the key to making a good living is to hit the streets with hard work.

Overall, this may not be a terribly bad thing.]]></description>

Proponents of the VA investment strategy feel that this method allows those who use it to experience the proverbial "best of both worlds."

How Value Averaging Works

Michael E. Edleson, a former Harvard finance professor, used simulations to compare the Value Averaging method to dollar cost averaging and also to the purchases of a constant number of shares in every investment period.]]></description>

Traditionally, there are 3 investment options available. The golden rule is to diversify your portfolio among all the options depending upon your risk appetite, earnings and the time span you let the assets to grow. The diversification balances your portfolio between the risk prone ones to the conservative ones and thus preventing heavy exposure of wealth in a single asset class.

Also, India will have a larger say in the affairs of the World Bank as it has become the seventh largest shareholder in the multilateral lender with 2.91 per cent voting rights.

From overseas Indian investors to software giants to telecom biggies Nokia and Samsung to auto majors Honda and Toyota, global players are now eyeing India as the most attractive destination for doing business in India, and are planning aggressive investment strategies to this effect.

Managing the 10 most prevalent investment risks:

Time Horizon - the amount of time you can spare to have your money tied up in an investment. Investment mismatch is where money that is earmarked for the short term is invested in a long term strategy and vice versa.

		<description><![CDATA[In a previous article, I wrote about the importance of knowing what type of investor you are, and being that type of investor only.

I believe there are two types of investors.

- passive or buy and hold investors who create their wealth by building a property portfolio over the long-term, and- active investors who would rather create equity or growth in their property in the short-term using such strategies as buy, renovate and sell.

Here's a story to help explain why it is so important to work out what type of investor you are, before you actually begin investing.

I was running an information session for a Property Investment Program I facilitated a few years ago. A lady asked a question about an investment property she had recently purchased and renovated. The property was now on the market for sale.]]></description>

After all, the trend of oil prices seems to inevitably creep upward, so the value of the related stocks must do so as well, goes the thinking of unsophisticated investors. However, not only is the perception that oil prices move inexorably upward inaccurate, there is no necessary relation between the price of oil and the price of the stocks associated with it.

There may be no other commodity in the market place as subject to political manipulation as is oil.]]></description>

A whole plethora of investment opportunities have opened up and foreign direct investment too have been welcomed in many sectors. India has also been recently rated amongst the top three preferred investment destinations in a report by Vale Columbia Centre for sustainable development issues, based upon foreign accruals in both 2008 and 2009.

The Finance Minister's statement that India can look forward to double-digit and sustainable growth is not unfounded.]]></description>

1) Diversify your savings into an IRA by paying $150.00 per month until you tour 65. Then one day when you're in your 60s (if you live that long) you will have $3,000,000.

		<description><![CDATA[In late 1981, the yield on 1-year treasury bills reached 17% and the yield on 10-year treasury bonds reached 15% - both yields proved to be the highest ever recorded in US history, and marked the beginning of a decline in market interest rates that lasted almost 3 decades. By 2009, 1-year and 10-year treasury yields bottomed at 0.3% and 2.5%, respectively. By any measure, the past 28 years represent the greatest bull market in history for fixed income securities.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Understanding the relationship between two important ratios is the key to building winning CFD trading strategies. The two key ratios are the risk reward ratio and the hit rate.

Lotto versus Contracts for Difference (CFDs)

Most people have bought lotto tickets at some point in their life, however is lotto the way to riches? The risk is very low, let's say $10 for a ticket, while the reward is potentially huge, with first prize being many millions of dollars, say $10 million. The risk reward ratio of this investment is exceptional at 1 million to 1.]]></description>

A comment from John Payne, veteran Advisor at Houston Asset Management, says it all. He said what every man and one female were thinking; "Will we ever learn?"

The result would have been no investment losses in 2008 and big profits in 2009 and early 2010. Your odds of doing this without a crystal ball were about zero.]]></description>

Reconciliation with the Senate is next and this process is likely to increase, not decrease, the tax burden on Americans for this new socialization of U.S. medicine.

So what is the bottom line for Americans, this bill will provide health care to those previously unable to receive healthcare, but someone will have to pay for this added cost to insurers.]]></description>

Certain types of investment income (dividends, capital gains, certain interest, e.g.) as well as the amount of this income in relation to the taxpayer's other income, all factor into the AMT formula. A taxpayer usually has much more control over investment income than he does his salary, for example, making this source of income much more important from an Alternative Minimum Tax planning point of view.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Seventy per cent of people in Great Britain consider their outlook and lifestyle to be green and ethical, and 49% of people with savings and investments would like to make a difference with their money, according to the UK sustainable investment and finance association (UKSIF).

Interest and trust in ethical investments is growing. Independent ethical research specialist EIRiS reveals there is currently £7bn invested in ethical funds in the UK, compared to £1.5bn ten years ago.

How do ethical funds invest?

Ethical funds limit their investment strategy to those companies that match their ethical criteria. They do this in two ways.

Some funds use 'positive screening' to include companies that are strongly pro-environment.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you are like most people on the planet, you covet your positive investment returns and are scared to death that you might give up those returns in this tough market climate. I believe this is why a majority of individual investors missed some or all of the recent stock market ascent off the March 2009 lows and 60%+ move higher.

I think this is why a November 2009 survey of high net worth investors by Investment News, showed that only a slim portion of the wealthy feel in control of their financial lives, an even smaller number (fewer than 9%) enjoy thinking about financial matters and only about a quarter feel successful in investing.

So what is the secret to feeling better about your investments and protecting your portfolio from Mr. Market's bears? The answer is to have a plan to identify and hedge your portfolio when market conditions clearly show a change in market direction may be coming.

This is where trend following shines.]]></description>

If you are searching for the most profitable portions of the marketplace, look into IPO investments. Before you can invest into IPOs though, you should definitely use an IPO valuation so you can know that you are looking at an investment that is worth your consideration.

Performing an evaluation before you purchase an IPO is essential if you desire to obtain a great deal on the investments you make. An evaluation is basically the most important action you will take while you are creating your investment strategies.]]></description>

One of the first things the broker will do is sit down with the client and determine the client's goals and expectations.

		<description><![CDATA[What if I told you there was a way to improve your financial situation versus your peers. Would you be interested? According to a November 2009 survey of high net worth investors by Investment News, 99% of wealthy individuals and almost 90% of mega-millionaires felt that their financial situation is somewhat worse or much worse than their peers.

Now why would this be the case? One answer comes to mind, the wrong approach to their investments. It was too easy during the 1980s and 1990s to hire an investment advisor or manager and get market like returns with little downside volatility.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Agricultural investment has many fans in the investosphere, the likes of Jim Rogers for example, founder of the Quantum fund alongside George Soros has been quoted as saying that agricultural investment is likely to be the best asset class of out time. So firstly lets look at the different modes of agricultural investment that are available for retail investors.

Agricultural Investment Funds
 Direct Farm Ownership- Hands On
 Direct Farm Ownership - Hands Off

First we look at Agriculture Investment Funds. These managed investment vehicles - available under the banner of most major investment houses - operate in the same way as other types of investment fund, gathering together the capital of smaller investors and participating in larger transactions such as buying up 1,000´s of hectares of managed farmland in various countries and essentially positioning themselves as very large global farm owner operators.]]></description>

ETFs are a quick and easy way of creating a diverse portfolio. Investments in ETFs can cover a wide range of options in a number of sectors, locations and classes of assets, as well as different investment strategies. They usually track a collection of securities that underlie the benchmark index.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The daily results of an inverse exchange traded fund are based on the inverse daily performance of the underlying benchmark or index. A range of derivatives including index swaps and futures contracts are used to meet the objectives of the investment in order to generate results that are opposite to the underlying benchmark or index. This means that the ETF goes up when the benchmark or index goes down, and vice versa.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last week I took my car into the repair shop. It was a new repair shop and I had quite frankly been putting off going to this shop, even though it had been highly recommended.

Friends told me about their positive experiences, how the owners were conscientious, very reasonably priced and that I would get far better service than the at the auto dealerships. Yet for some reason I put it off going to see them until my car finally died last week.

Isn't that just human nature? We wait until the situation seems hopeless to change whether an auto mechanic or something as important as an investment advisor.

Why? The answer is simple! The devil you know is more comfortable than the devil you don't.

If you are experiencing pain today, why risk experiencing even more pain? We tend to focus on the negative rather than the positive a change could bring us.

How many individuals are doing the same with their investment advisors in a dangerous game that could affect your financial future? You may be saying to yourself, "but my advisor did well last year."

That may be true, but the bigger question is how did he do in 2008? We are in a secular bear market and stock indexes moves, both up and down, are exaggerated.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[From the end of 1999 through the end of 2009, all of the popular Wall Street market performance measurement tools were in the red. The average bloodletting level of the DJIA, the S &#038; P 500, and the NASDAQ was a disturbing-to-some minus nineteen percent.

The Media has dubbed it "The Dismal Decade".

Most of the investment community is either open-mouthed in shock or strident in blame about the somethings or someones who must be responsible for such horrific performance. Never again they swear to their clients--- without ever a hint that they might themselves be the problem.

It won't be long before the Wizards of Wall Street announce that they have studied the situation, and readied their sales minions to switch the shattered investment public into yet another fail proof (fool-magnet?) portfolio of hedges, gimmicks, signal responders, and panaceas for whatever the new decade brings.

Once again they will attempt to debug the market cycle and create an upward only future for the masses.]]></description>

Investing in times of recession or an up and down stock market seems suicidal at best, and what do you do if these troubled economic times have left you with no money to invest? Thinking about stock returns, 401(k)s or other investment strategies is important, but if you are not working, underemployed, or just broke, the thought of planning for you financial future seems ridiculous. Sometimes is hard to see beyond the realities of food and clothing.

		<description><![CDATA[The majority of advice given to individual investors relates to developing an investment plan: evaluating risk tolerance, choosing an appropriate mix of assets, controlling costs, etc. While these considerations are all important drivers of investment success, a singular focus on plan development often causes implementation to suffer.

In order to promote the disciplined execution of a portfolio's investment strategy, pension plans, foundations and trusts often draft an Investment Policy Statement (IPS). This document formally outlines the investment objectives, philosophy, boundaries and procedures for managing the portfolio so that plan advisors don't stray from their clients' intentions.]]></description>

To the uninitiated, the wide variety of methods can be quite bewildering. Whether it is stocks and shares, bonds, cash savings accounts, pensions or real estate, I suspect that many are simply intimidated by the murky jargon of the professionals to believe that they could educate themselves about this important aspect of their financial lives.

		<description><![CDATA[The term non-correlated asset classes covers a whole range of potential investments, including venture capital, real estate, private equity, and commodities, but also alternative investment strategies.

But in today's economy of crashing public equity markets, defaulting hedge funds, and non-existent real estate plays, one company believes investing in film slates, including theatrical distribution, offers a high yield alternative investment that can be leveraged with tax benefits and multiple sources of revenues including theatrical, DVD, video on demand, cable, and the foreign markets.

As a non correlated asset class, films and film finance has outperformed every non correlated asset class in the world if you look at the more than $6 billion dollars poured into motion picture finance deals in the last 3 years, the IRR across the spectrum for both studios and independents are resilient to global economic declines in other industries.

When defense contractor Honeywell, New York Hedge Fund Elliot Associates, and Dune Capital invested more than a combined total of more than a billion dollars towards several different film funds, many pension funds, private banks, hedge fund managers, private equity groups, and high net worth investors and family offices started to follow suit enter the movie business.

Investors from Wall Street to Silicon Valley to the Middle East to Russia have been parking their money into Hollywood.

Anil Ambani, Larry Ellison Of Oracle, Paul Allen Of Microsoft, Steven Rales, Fred Smith of Federal Express, Norman Waitt, the Co-Founder of Gateway Computers, Jeff Skoll Of Ebay, Marc Turtletaub of The Money Store, Roger Marino Of EMC Corp, Sidney Kimmel Of Jones Apparel Group, Minnesota Twins owner Bill Pohlad; Real Estate Developers Tom Rosenberg and Bob Yari, and, financiers Sheikh Waleed Al Ibrahim, Michel Litvak, and Philip Anschutz are all behind the finance of a lot of films that range from box office hits to Academy Award winners.

Institutional investors and hedge funds investing in films include Elliot Associate, Stark, Columbus Nova, Bain, Honeywell, and others.

Non-correlated investment strategies can be used by investors to neutralize, or counterbalance, the risk that one, or more, of the investments in a traditional portfolio of stocks and bonds falls in value. In order to do this, investors typically place between 5% and 20% of their total investment portfolio into alternative investments to protect the remainder of the portfolio from downside risk.

Among the spectrum of asset classes targeted by high net-worth individuals, institutional investors, pension funds or private banks, alternative investments are becoming popular offering more diversification to investors' portfolios. The benefits of such diversification have been demonstrated by Harry Max Markowitz ( 1990, Nobel Prize in Economics ) in the Modern Portfolio Theory.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Let me guess, during the past few years your investments have been slammed, your retirement has been put back a few years and your investing confidence is shot? You are not alone; over 90% of investment portfolios suffered the same fate and have left their owners wondering if it is even possible to make money from investing.

Did everyone lose money during the GFC?

Quite simply no, in fact the professional investors actually made more money on the way down than ever before. The question you need to ask yourself is how can you put yourself into the top 10% of investors and learn how to make money no matter what the stock market is doing? If you have relied on a 'so called' expert to give you investment advice yet you portfolio has still gone backwards perhaps it's time to try a different tact?

Imagine if you could find investment strategies that allowed you to


 Insure your shares against a stock market crash
 Use leverage without risking anything
 Control a $100,000 of shares for a fraction of the cost with no risk
 Be able to sleep at night knowing your money is safe
 Rent out your shares for monthly premiums (passive income)
 Create a huge income that allowed you to quit your job

If you think that the above statements are unrealistic then I can assume that you haven't put much time into actually educating yourself. These strategies not only exist but everyday people are now starting to get access to them. Since the internet information has been passed on at such a rapid rate investment strategies that were previously only used by the rich and wealthy are now being passed onto normal people. 

The rich don't care because they know that you won't use them!

Unfortunately this is the sad truth. Most people that could benefit the most from these great strategies are too scared or untrusting to believe that there is a better way out there. I challenge you to rise above all of the negative hype and rubbish that you hear about investing and do your own research. Find these strategies that I have spoken about. It's not hard - once you start looking you will be amazed at what you find.

If you truly want to get rid of those negative returns and learn how to make extra money fast, then it is time you increased your investment knowledge..]]></description>

A good businessman would spend much of their time researching and studying the financial market, as well as work on developing their business management skills. A relatively new businessman will come across terminology and phrases that are both unfamiliar and confusing, making it vital that they take some time out researching.

		<description><![CDATA[Welcome back, today we will continue our discussion about the inflation/hyperinflation/ stagflation trade. In my last article I illustrated how the important news stories of last week clearly unveiled the footprint of the inflation trade. You may recall that I ended with the familiar refrain: "Inflation (particularly hyperinflation) is a currency event, not an economic event."

Therefore, the investment strategy required to profit in this environment is one that begins with the close monitoring of the U.S.$ and ends with the investment in assets that appreciate in value when the U.S.$ suffers.

What is the number one asset we expect to benefit from this developing trend? I will pause here and allow long time readers, clients of RCM, and partners of the Fortune's Favor Family of Funds the chance to shout in unison...GOLD! And as Ed McMahon used to say, "Yes, you are correct!"

With the above investment strategy in mind, I would like to continue our journey following the footprints with a recent word from a respected investment professional.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In this article we will take a summary look at Forestry Investments in general. We will look at how investing in Forestry works, how forestry and timber perform as an asset class, the expected rate of return for investors, and the inherent risks involved with this alternative asset.

Forestry Investment Asset Performance

Forestry investments are nothing new, and institutional investors have been investing in forestry for decades, as exposure to this asset class generally lowers risk whilst at the same time outperforming more volatile equity markets.

Over the last 14 years if you had invested only in stocks, you would have made losses in four of those years (on average), whilst timber showed a profit every single year. Stocks outperformed timber during only five of the fourteen years, whilst Timber beat the stock market eight out of fourteen.

Savvy Investors in British forestry funds last year saw far higher returns than from other traditional classes of assets. According to the Investment Property Databank* the UK Forestry Index returned 31.6 per cent in 2007, some six hundred per cent more than equities, which could manage barely 5.3 per cent, and 500 per cent more than bonds at  6.4 per cent.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Most investors do not realize, but as a private investor managing his own money, he has got an immense advantage over a fund manager due to factors he may not even be aware of.

Sure it will take up some of your free time but it will probably be one of the most awarding activities you can invest your time in.

We have all worked hard for the money we have saved and it would only be prudent to invest in in the best way possible.

With public pension systems crumbling around the world because of aging populations, making the most of your savings had gotten much more important.

Below are the advantage I have come up with. If you come up with any others please send me a short note.

1. You can waitAs a private investor you can wait for attractive investment opportunities to present themselves.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For many individuals, the thought of investing their money in stocks, securities and bonds can be a scary proposition. For some, images of Bernard Madoff coupled with the recession makes for a very risky market indeed. You have probably heard of too many banks, insurance companies and investment houses folding under the pressure of the recession as well as the domino effect of fraudulent Ponzi schemes.

For others, you probably think that the investment world is so complicated and complex that it is confusing to all but the likes of Warren Buffett.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It's not going to be news to any of you reading this article that we're currently seeing an unprecedented number of property foreclosures in the US. Obviously the foreclosure crisis and the credit crunch which has followed on its heels are tragic situations for many and definitely deserve the title of crisis. However, this is also a time with an incredible number of opportunities for real estate investors who have the resources needed to take advantage of the situation and making investments now when real estate prices are at the lowest levels seen in many years.

One thing which is attracting a particularly large number of property investors at the moment is bulk REO investing, a real estate investment strategy which offers excellent prospects for profits and given the price of many of the properties currently on the market, these investments also provide the investor with an excellent profit margin.

Unless you've been doing a lot of research on your own or have some experience in the real estate market, you probably aren't quite sure how to make profitable investments in bulk REO properties.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Too often people turn their back on investing because they think that it is simply too hard. I used to have a whole list of excuses

-        Not enough money

-        Not enough time

-        Don't know where to start

-        Feel intimidated by financial planners

-        Investing is only for smart people

Well the reason I am writing this article is to change your attitude towards investing. In fact I'm going to show you how to make money investing from your home computer.

The key to investing is to find a strategy that suits you and become a master of that system. Do you like stock market or real estate investing? Do you like easy money? Do you like making money fast? Do you want to know how to make extra money or do you want to create a full time income from investing? Depending on your answers the best investment strategy for you will differ it is simply a matter of finding it.

Let me show you why anyone can make money investing from the comfort of their own home

Not enough money: There are investment strategies that only need $100-200. Even if you don't have one cent to invest the time to start thinking about it is now because if keep saying "I will invest when I have a spare $10,000" then you never will. Start now and find a strategy that suits your financial position.

Not enough time: You have two options. Make time or be poor. Imagine if you could find one hour per day to dedicate to your financial education. Within a few short months you would be able to begin investing your money. I challenge you to find the time.

Don't know where to start: There are a number of great resources on the web today and most of them are free. Simply do a quick search for 'free investment dvds' or something similar and you will be amazed at what you find.

Feel intimidated by financial planners: If you educate yourself you won't need a financial planner. If you find a good education system then you will probably know more than them anyway. No one looks after your money better than you and this way you won't have to leave the house.

Investing is only for smart people: Rubbish. In fact the dumber you are the better. Being highly intelligent can be a problem for investors because they think about every decision too much. The best investors are able to make quick decisions and stick with them.

So now that you know it's possible to make money investing from your home computer what is stopping you? Take action today and you will be rewarded in the not too distant future. .]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The majority of people in this world think that investing is scary and I totally agree with them. Investing is one of the scariest things in the world IF you don't know what you are doing. If you aren't consistently making money as an investor then I can assume that you are one of two types of people.

- An Uneducated Investor: eg. You have put your money into the stock market or Property before you really understood how it worked. Generally on the advice of a friend or so called advisor only to see your hard earned money shrink rather than grow like they promised. If you fit into this category then at least you had a go and tried to make some money. Unfortunately the financial world doesn't hand out any 'well done' or '2nd prize' awards. If you have lost money from investing I urge you to use this experience to make you a better investor rather than simply walking away

- Have Been Scared By An Uneducated Investor: Most people's investment advice happens at a Christmas party or wedding. They talk to other people who have had bad experiences with investing and all they hear about is how much money so and so lost.  

Where Should You Get Your Investment Advice From?

This is a very good question and one that not enough people tend to ask.   The answer is simple.

"Find someone who is already a successful investor and ask them."

Unfortunately this can be a lot harder than it may seem. You would think that most financial planners and advisers would be the right people to ask but the fact is that most of them successful investors. If they were do you think they would be working for someone else, sitting in a little office giving you advice? No they would be off traveling the world enjoying the money that their investments are producing.

No one will look after your money better than you

If you really want to consistently make money as an investor then you simply need to take control yourself. Read everything that you can, increase your knowledge and take action. There is a whole number of incredible investment strategies available that the average people don't even know about.

Did You Know

- You Can Insure Your Shares- You Can Rent Out Your Shares- You Earn an Income From an Investment Property Without Selling it (Tax Free)- You Can Make Money When the Stock Market is going Up, Down &#038; Sideways

So what are you waiting for? Expand your investment knowledge today and start consistently making money as an investor tomorrow..]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The sensible way to make money by investing money is to use a moderate to conservative investment strategy. Why did millions of Americans lose a large part of their life savings in 2008? They had an overly aggressive investment strategy. They had a large portion of their investment assets at risk in the stock market and many of them didn't even know it.

I don't care how old you are; keeping 80%, 90% or more of your investment assets in the U.S.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Like the mythical siren's call, the pitch is enticing - a seemingly perfect investment.

Investors can buy into a contract offering a minimum return with the potential to capture the upside of increases in the stock market while avoiding portfolio value declines if - and when - the market goes down.

This blend of promises can be found in 'equity-indexed annuities" or EIAs offered by insurance companies.

And these offerings have become popular given the steep declines in the stock market.  According to a report in the WSJ (9/02/09), sales of EIAs during the first half of 2009 rose 20% compared to a year ago to $15.2 billion.

As compelling as these products may sound, they are anything but simple.  There are many complicated moving parts to each EIA contract. So buyer beware!

Think of investing as finding the route to your destination (a goal) and matching that with the appropriate mode of transportation (or investment vehicle) to get you there.  You may be traveling from Boston to New York and can choose highways or back roads. You can choose hi-speed rail, a car, a bus, a bike or even a plane.  You can drive or fly yourself or hire someone else to drive.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The best place to invest money really depends on the individual doing the investing. To determine which place to park your funds depends on how much risk you can handle and what type of time frame you are working with. This article will describe a few low risk options for investing funds along with a few high risk options for investing.

If someone asked me what the best place to invest money was, I would present them with a few different investment strategies and explain the expected return and the risk of each of those investments.

For someone who is very risk averse (one who avoids risk), I would recommend a fixed income security or a money market account.]]></description>

		<title>Adaptive Markets Hypothesis (AMH) As an Alternative to the Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH)</title>

		<description><![CDATA[Efficient market hypothesis was introduced by French mathematician Louis Bachelier in 1900 in his dissertation. Efficient Market Hypothesis says that markets are completely efficient and that all prices in the market already reflect the available knowledge and expectations of investors.

This concept of market efficiency has a wonderfully counterintuitive and seemingly contradictory flavor to it: The more efficient the market, the more random the sequence of price changes generated by such a market must be, and the most efficient market of all is one which price changes are completely random and unpredictable. This is a direct outcome of many active traders using the smallest informational advantages at their disposal and attempting to profit from their information. This quickly eliminates the profit opportunities that give rise to their actions.

If we assume an idealized world of "frictionless" markets and costless trading, then prices must always fully reflect all available information and no profits can be garnered from information-based trading because such profits have already been captured.

The Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) is particularly relevant to the Alternative Investments Industry because the primary attraction of Alternative Investments Products is their higher expected returns and, in many cases, lower risk as measured by correlation to broad-based market index such as the S &#038; P 500 and the Dow Jones.

If the Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) is true, it should not be possible to generate higher expected returns after adjusting for risk.

Let us look at the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM).

According to this model the risk-adjusted expected return of any investment "p" is determined by the market beta of that investment:

E[RP]= RF + ß(E[Rm]- RF),

If we transposed for ß in percentage, we get:

ß = {E [RP] - RF)}/ {E [RM]-RF} X100

Where:

RF = the return on a risk free asset such as 10 Year U.S Treasury Bills

E [RM] = is the expected return on the market portfolio which is normally approximated by the S&#038; P 500.

If we test a sample of data of say 10 different alternative investments products you will find that a number of them exhibit excess expected returns, which implies that the models are wrong or that the markets are inefficient.

MIT finance professor Andrew Lo is turning heads by developing a new theory about the way that markets behave called the Adaptive Markets Hypothesis (AMH). His resulting Adaptive Markets Hypothesis (AMH) explains the apparent irrationality of markets as a rational reaction to a change in environmental conditions.

I do believe in the adaptive markets hypothesis as an alternative to the Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH). It is a better model.

The Adaptive Markets Hypothesis (AMH) is based on principles of evolutionary biology such as competition, mutation, reproduction, and natural selection.

It is a theory that expectations about market conditions are based in somewhat imperfect perceptions of how recent events might affect the future, and with less than perfect rationality.

Despite the qualitative nature of this new paradigm, the Adaptive Markets Hypothesis offers a number of surprisingly concrete implications for the practice of portfolio management. Based on evolutionary principles, the Adaptive Markets Hypothesis implies that the degree of market efficiency is related to environmental factors characterizing market ecology such as the number of competitors in the market, the magnitude of profit opportunities available, and the adaptability of the market participants. According to Andrew W.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What happens if you currently are lucky enough to have plenty of assets and are looking for investment options? Even if the sum is not huge you may be prepared or able to look at an investment option that goes beyond a conventional savings scheme.

Given the general state of the housing market and of share prices it is probably not an idea to invest in those areas unless you really know what you are doing - and equally importantly are both investing for the longer term and can afford, at worst, to lose your investment.

An alternative option is to invest in items that have practical short term value, are reasonably likely to maintain their value over time and that can be relatively easily sold at a later stage. Practical investment options of this type are things such as vintage jewellery, vintage cars or art. Depending on what you can afford these all can be enjoyed whilst they appreciate in value and are easy enough to sell when you need to.

More esoteric options include investing in film making.]]></description>
