The AAII Columbus Chapter presents...

"How to Avoid Bear Markets and Catch a Bull"

    Discussed by:

    Ian Abbott
    Owner, Abacus Financial Services

Ian Abbott will explain how so many investors lost a significant part of their retirement savings when the market dropped 40% in 2008. He will argue that the problem was not “contained” or “unforeseen.” Looking back to the 1930s, he will argue that what happened then was not a single event but rather a chain reaction of crashes and mini-crashes that extended for more than a decade. Are we at the precipice now, standing at the brink of another collapse? Can you afford to watch the market disintegrate without a plan to help protect your assets from such events?

Attend This Meeting and Learn...
The causes of the meltdown and why it will happen again
How active management may have saved nest eggs by cutting losses during the meltdown
Nine specific indicators you can use on the Internet that could warn you before the next collapse
