Today
self-publishing system allows me to write books without spending a penny. So far, it does not contribute much financial reward but it takes up too much of my time. It should be better used on investing. However, it is beneficial to me as an investor. For example, I have derived new strategies described in my new book SuperStocks (from Amazon.com). In addition, I introduced my Pow P/E and Pow EY that take cash per share and debt per share into consideration. It improves the traditional P/E and EY substantially.
Many investing books today are too basic to be useful. Some books have only one theme that usually does not justify the investment (learning to be a better investor). My books try to resolve all these with my actual experiences as a retail investor like yourself.

Just my simple
market timing technique would pay back your investment many times. There is nothing
to subscribe and no tool to buy as the simple chart is provided free in many
web sites. Don’t let the term ‘chart’ fool you as it is very easy to use. It is
the best-kept secret. I’m the one to publicize it with my own testing. The
average market loss from the last two plunges is about 45%. The chart depends
on falling stock prices as data, so it will not save you 45% but it will reduce your losses; it worked
for the last two market plunges.
I wrote “Debunk
the Myths in Investing” and its sequel “Investing Strategies: Updated and
Profitable”. I combined the two books
into “The Art of Investing”; the Kindle version has over 720 pages for $10. It
is $25 for the printed version (quality paper is expensive) and the Concise
Edition is $20.
The above books
are for intermediate investors. Surprisingly many fund managers told me that they enjoyed them and found them very useful. “Profit Stock Investing for Beginners and
Couch Potatoes” is for beginners and couch potatoes (am I repeating myself?). It uses many techniques including market timing in other books but in the simplest term. It could be a perfect gift for the recent
college graduates. It may be the most important book they should read beside the Bible to secure financial success.
Several of my articles were published in
SeekingAlpha.com, a site for investors. It is my interest to share my findings
with fellow retail investors.

My view on the market in 2015. Disclaim all liabilities.
Bad News
What should we do
When the market is down, we
need to know whether it is a correction or the start of a market plunge. For a
correction, you want to buy stocks as in Oct. 15, 2014. For market plunges you
want to sell. For me, I prefer to ignore corrections as it could be the start
of a market plunge. Most predictions from analysts and fund managers are rosier
than they actually are (their hidden agenda). Accept their ideas that make sense.

My view on the market in 2015. Disclaim all liabilities.
For the last few years, most
market predictors have their crystal balls broken. It is due to the excessive
supply of money that leads to a non-correlation of the economy and the stock
market. It cannot last forever. It will correlate again when the money supply
is reduced.
2015 will be a tough year to
predict. I will predict a gain of 7% if the market does not plunge. As usual,
there will be two camps in opposite directions.
Good News
·
The market is slightly over-priced.
SPY’s P/E is about 18 vs. the normal 15.
·
The economy is improving slowly.
·
Energy cost is reducing (bad for the energy
sector).
·
Most corporations have good profits especially
in the first and second quarter.
Bad News
·
Margin debt is in the record high. The market
would usually plunge the next year after the year with high margin debt. Alarming!
·
Interest rate will climb after the mid year of
2015.
·
The national debts and obligations are high as a
percentage of the GDP. If we legalize 4 million illegals, how many will give up
their work and collect welfare?
What should we do
I would watch how the above will
materialize. The weather man can predict the weather in the next few days
better than the weather in the next month.
