Dal risvolto di copertina interno

Three years into the 21st century, investing is still done the way it was a hundred years ago.

Like all things outdated, the fable that the Dow Jones Industrial Average is the center of the financial universe once served a purpose. Today its relevance is evaporating and its original purpose is a dim memory. Yet, fear of change has investors clinging so desperately to the past that they are getting rope burn.

Since the Dow was established over a century ago, a series of awakenings have rejuvenated productivity and introduced new business cultures. With each new business culture, a new investment culture has formed. Unfortunately, the powerful interests vested in the status quo tend to direct attention away from the opportunities the new investment culture offers. This restrictive view tells investors like yourself to be concerned about what the Dow did today and where it will be tomorrow, instead of focusing on what you must do to achieve financial success in the new investment culture. A myopic focus on the Dow also obscures the indicators suggesting that certain markets are heading toward the biggest boom in history.

Based on over forty years of combined author experience as portfolio managers and financial advisors, Divorcing the Dow begins by explaining why the Dow Jones Industrial Average is no longer a relevant barometer of the economic environment. To replace the Dow, authors Jim Troup and Sharon Michalsky present a timely and revolutionary framework for understanding and investing in market cycles. Their approach focuses on analyzing patterns of productivity as a way to anticipate market cycles. After seven years of mapping the investment genome, Troup and Michalsky discovered how a new investment cycle was triggered in 1998. They open the viewfinder on their research to show you the financial markets in their historic, cultural, and economic context, revealing the patterns that indicate the markets that are poised to experience a boom dwarfing anything seen before.

Troup and Michalsky provide investors with a new framework for thinking about financial markets and give specific investment techniques to anticipate the market?s direction and identify companies poised for sustained productivity and long-term growth. Based on in-depth research and field-tested in the authors? own successful management of millions of dollars in personal and corporate assets, Divorcing the Dow introduces you to a revolutionary paradigm for predicting market patterns. Troup and Michalsky provide you with the state-of-the-art tools needed to make strategic and profitable investment decisions and get a jump-start on other investors who continue to use an investing system that clearly has run its course.
