Summary

To make money in this troubled economy you need to understand where the markets are headed, not where they've been. Clinging to outdated strategies and played-out market trends are sure ways to miss out on new investments. In The Little Book of Bull's Eye Investing, acclaimed investment expert John Mauldin teaches you how to read the direction of the markets to make decisions that capitalize on today's investment opportunities.

A practical road map to what's in store for the markets to help you stay ahead of the curve, the book debunks many of the myths that have come to govern investment logic, particularly the buy-and-hold, relative return vehicles that Wall Street peddles to unsuspecting investors. Giving you a clear view of the trends shaping the markets right now, which are likely to provide investment options for the decade ahead, The Little Book of Bull's Eye Investing teaches the value of careful research before you put your money to work.

Whether the market is on its way up or down, there are always excellent opportunities to invest profitably. You just need to know where they are. Looking at how the markets have behaved in the past to make an educated prediction about where they're going, The Little Book of Bull's Eye Investing explains how to make investment decisions that make sense today, whether you're trading stocks, bonds, gold, real estate, or anything else.

Making the most of the markets is like hitting a moving target - difficult, but not impossible - and with The Little Book of Bull's Eye Investing in hand, you have everything you need to improve your eye for investing and make stable and secure trading decisions that can turn a profit in even the most turbulent of times.

The author opens by confidently predicting the years following 2012 will be a "secular bear market". Not a good start.

There are IMO two different kinds of books about markets: those intended to to help you trade better, and those that bury you in analysis. This is the later. The author spends a long time bashing Mutual Funds and regaling you with "technology waves", "60 year cycles", "modern investment theory" and various other concepts that will be of very little use to you when you're sitting at your desk trying to decide what to do with your savings.

His criticism of efficient markets theory and "buy and hold" funds is valid, and introduced a few concepts I had not heard of before. But having spent most of the book doing this, he then unveils in the last coupe of chapters his grand solution ---------- (drum roll) ------------- buy "value stocks", and diversify.

After 10 chapters attacking conventional long-only equities funds, that was somewhat underwhelming. And if you want to learn value investing - I would suggest there are much better works on the subject out there than the very brief and inadequate treatment of it here.

Narrator is fine.

Cliched advice dressed as radicalism.
