Crash Profits

Smart investing strategies from the bestselling author of The Ultimate Safe Money Guide Collapsing megacorporations, indicted CEOs, fictional balance sheets... Where is your money safe? Whom can an investor trust? Martin Weiss has built a national reputation as a fiercely independent financial advisor and critic of Wall Street practices. His previous bestseller, The Ultimate Safe Money Guide, gave readers the know-how to invest wisely and cautiously. Now Weiss arms investors for today’s hostile market. Filled with against-the-grain attitude and seasoned market wisdom, Weiss’s Crash Profits explains not only how to survive but how to make money before, during, and after a crash. Using real examples fresh from the financial pages, Weiss delineates the full range of risks now facing the average American. He shows readers how to see through the lies that Wall Street tells and how to find safer alternatives to stock investing, as well as what to sell, where to sell, and how to sell (and when not to sell). Here’s the unvarnished truth about investing today and the strategies every American can use to turn windfall profits while others are losing their shirts. Martin D. Weiss, PhD (Palm Beach, FL), America’s consumer advocate for financial safety, is Chairman of Weiss Research in Palm Beach, Florida. The company issues safety ratings on banks and savings institutions, insurance firms, brokerages, and HMOs. It is the only major ratings company that receives no remuneration from the companies it covers. Weiss has testified before Congress several times and has appeared on ABC, CBS, and NBC. His previous book, The Ultimate Safe Money Guide was a Wall Street Journal, BusinessWeek and New York Times Business bestseller.
