Publisher's Synopsis
I hope the market will recover eventually. This book suggests when it would recover and what stocks would have the best appreciation potential according to me; consult your financial advisor before taking any actions.To protect yourself from this virus, please read "Self Help" (Book 1, Chapter 2) even it is just a suggestion. You cannot enjoy all the gold in the world if you do not have good health. I have predicted correctly this disaster in China as early as August, 2019 (Book 1, Chapter 4). It is lucky for the prediction but unlucky for most investors. Besides luck, I had my own reasons described in the above chapter. However, I did not trust my prediction 100%. I did take some actions to reduce my losses such as accumulating cash and buying contra ETFs. However, I also missed many gains for a few months before the crash (from 9/2019 to 1/2020). During that time, the market made new heights and I did not feel good. I forgot that the year before the election is a typical good year for the market.Predictions are just predictions. This book provides some reasons / guidelines for reference only. The market conditions change very fast in the last few years. It is volatile due to the ease of making trades and program trading. Consult your investment advisors before you take any action. Many predicted the market right and some even formed investing companies. Most are one-trick companies. Hence, do not fall into the same trap. I share my investing ideas (hopefully most are right) for preparing what to buy them when to buy. Do not feel down in the falling market. The market has gained a lot since 3/2009, which was my best year in investing (Book 2, Chapter 9). Hopefully the warmer weather would wipe out this virus. However, so far Florida and Georgia are not exempt from this virus. In any case, health is most important. We are all affected by this virus. Even with CDs and contra ETFs, I still have losses but smaller if I did not take actions. My children may lose their jobs for a while. Do not be depressed and tomorrow will be better. It is only money after all and health is most important.I knew about this virus started in Wuhan at least one week before it was shown on TV news. I did not take full advantage of it by buying contra ETFs (betting the stocks going down) on China. I was too emotional. We should wear two hats, one as a human being and one as an investor. If we feel guilty of taking advantage of this unfortunate incident, donate the 'loots' to charities. So far, all my book profits (even very small) have been donated to charities. If you feel I am trying to make money from this disaster, skip this book.I have a second prediction on the market that could be even worse than the first prediction (Book 1, Chapter 3). It is about the reserve status of U.S. dollar. I hope it will not materialize in our life time.The main book (Book 3) consists of articles: "What stocks to buy after the recovery" and "Entry Timing". A blog is provided for updates including new stock selections. Size: 295 pages (6*9).Initial date: 04/2020.Update date: 05/2020.
