Stock Market Timing System for Beginners
Submitted by Van Beek on February 25, 2011 - 07:35Stock market timing helps to make balanced buy-sell decisions to create great investing returns.
Stock market timing helps me now already for over 8 years to capitalize on the long-term trends that you can see in stock market indices. This market timing system I developed in 2003 has enabled me to benefit from the bull market between 2004 and 2007, to avoid the financial crisis of 2008 and to ride again the trend up between 2009 and today.
Three Investing for Beginners Lessons: Start with Index Funds, not Stocks
Submitted by Van Beek on February 23, 2011 - 17:14
The biggest loss I ever made on a single investment was the investment in the stock of a company that I knew best. This is a great lesson for beginners who want to start investing. It was in 2000 and I bought shares in the company that I was working for. I know that company inside out. I know its industry. I know the competitors. It was and is the dominant global market leader in its market. And still I lost more than 60% of my investments in that company.
The Nokia Lesson for Buy and Hold Investors

Buy and hold of even great companies carries great risks
Trading Regional Factors
The widespread protests in Egypt, following on from the ousting of the Tunisian government earlier this month, have made headlines around the world. However, whilst media outlets are focussing on the possibility of whether Egypt will see a change of power after nearly 30 years, in the background the markets have wobbled over fears around the Middle East.
The primary reason for this is that Egypt, whilst not the biggest economy in the region, is absolutely vital to European energy markets. The Suez Canal is a major source for oil from the Gulf, and there are fears that chaos in Egypt could lead to the disruption of the Canal and therefore of the oil supply to the West.
The oil price has already started to rise, even though the Canal is still operating at full capacity, but there are other concerns too.
