Mr. Barnes has 35 years of experience on Wall Street as researcher and trader, with 12 books on quant trading by major publishers ( McGraw Hill, John Wiley, e.g.) This investing strategies book is for investors in general, people near retirement, and retirees; and details financial steps to take in the face of a weak economy with strong markets. The book is divided into a number of sections: a discussion of what is happening (markets around the world), what caused the mess, and finally what we can do about it. Chapter One details the history of markets: the many massive events and functional problems we face. Chapter Two reviews extensively similar market histories, and what they portend. Chapter Three maps out possible scenarios of can occur and a description of a new era. Chapters Four, Five and Six lay out job finding, cost cutting, money placement, and stock market selection and timing for three different groups: working people, near retirement workers, and retirees. A table of worthy stocks to choose (122) based on the best company analysis criteria (earnings growth rate), when the time is appropriate ( when to enter the markets), along with four model portfolios (growth, value, conservative, and new era), are presented. A very important capital survival formula is also presented.
