How to Survive a Recession and Make Profits
Stock-Markets / Recession Apr 26, 2008 - 12:24 AM GMTDespite frantic efforts by the US Government and central bank to avoid a recession during a Presidential election year, the US is heading for a protracted recessionary period that is expected to be worse than the last two recessions as the credit crisis and housing bust continue.
The focus for investors now should be to realise that what worked during the 2003 to 2007 stocks bull market is expected to and actually is unraveling as the boom sectors such as financial's are in a bear market.
However investors can, not only survive the recession with their capital intact but also profit from switch in allocation of capital to asset classes that are set to continue to grow during a recession. In that regard our friends at Elliott Wave International have made available to our readership and exciting free resource encompassing 3 Videos and 1 report.of what to during a recession .
The 3 videos present Prechter's interesting and unique forecast as well as his outlook for U.S. Stocks, Precious Metals, Currencies and other markets.
Plus, Prechter discusses how Fed Reserve rate cuts merely follow the U.S. Treasury Bill interest rate. And he goes on to ask and answer a fascinating contrarian question: “Why in the world are people rooting for lower interest rates?”
The report included in this group of resources focuses mainly on Prechter's Gold and Silver forecast , the same forecast his subscribers pay up to $59 every month for. But, right now, it's yours FREE.
In these resources, you'll learn why Prechter says the U.S. has been in a bear market since – YES – the year 2000.
I know, I know, a bear market since 2000 is a shocking claim , but when you consider the massive amount of credit inflation, and when you measure how much gold or how many commodities you can buy with your Dow or S&P 500 shares, you'll learn that, according to Prechter, stocks have been CRASHING since 2000 .
In fact, here's a little secret for you : When you measure the S&P 500 in a basket of commodities rather than the U.S. dollar, you will see it has declined as far as 75% .
But, what does this mean for the “Real Dow” and “Real S&P 500,” as Prechter calls them? Here's a hint: The nominal Dow has a long history of catching up to the “Real Dow.”
I encourage you to hear his warning, then decide for yourself what you should do – if anything – to prepare for Prechter's prediction that the nominal Dow, the one you read about in newspapers, will one day catch up to the “Real Dow,” the one measured in gold.
In these FREE reports, you will hear, watch and read Prechter's chart-filled advice on how to survive a recession , how to make money in a recession and how to create a safe investment strategy in recession .
This FREE group of resources represents prudent advice for anyone concerned about preserving wealth in a recession .
