Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
While Appel’s previous books offered advice on technical analysis of stocks and price movement charts aimed at aggressive day traders, this one covers tamer versions of those strategies for conservative retail investors. Despite the sensational subtitle, the advice is generally solid, calling for broad diversification with a little excitement from a moderate level of turnover. However, unlike conventional wisdom, which advises buy-and-hold diversification, the book recommends aggressive market timing, moving in and out of various investment types based on market and economic conditions. The strongest aspect of the book is the clear explanations of how these diverse sectors work, and how ordinary investors can put money into them conveniently and at a reasonable cost. But the advice on how to tell when different market sectors are attractive or unattractive for investment is much less clear. There is extensive discussion of how much money one could have made if one had known what was going to happen, but the rules for switching investments in the future are hard to understand and not backed by systematic statistics.

Shows there is always a bull market somewhere
This book does an outstanding job explaining how to use different investment vehicles at the right time to find opportunities and achieve results. The author advises to only take on appropriate risk for your situation, diversify, buy your investments for a good value, and stick with your winners. He explains the proper use of open and close ended mutual funds, REITs, ETFs, commodity mutual funds, gold, stocks and bonds. High inflation? Invest in commodity and natural resource mutual funds. Moderate inflation? Stay in the stock market. Deflation? Go to investment grade intermediate and long-term bonds. This book is packed with strategies so you can become your own investment advisor by seeing opportunities no matter what the economic environment. I highly recommend.

Important Investment Guide for the Novice and Expert alike
Being a financial advisor, I’ve come across books that range from the very basic to the ridiculous.
Appel’s book, although more conventional then his previous titles, lays out a comprehensive, although extremely practical and relevant strategy for 1) understanding how the markets both stocks and bonds work and 2) giving the investor various options to use that although do involve time and some monitoring, provide a solid blue-print step by step guide that will allow them to more intelligently invest with their hard-earned assets while reducing risk where possible.
Moreover, the combination of fundamental and technical analysis in security selection allows the investor to capitalize on both areas of the market that are affected by emotional factors (external events) but also takes advantage of proven technical and analytical strategies that in the long-haul will give the investor above market gains.
Highly recommended.
