We need a rabbit!

This was a pretty horrible week for the market with two 100-point days and Friday closing on the lows.

During these past few days Sir Alan told us things are looking up and the economy is basically strong. Mr. Market didn't hear him. It seems that jaw boning can't get people to buy. In fact there were more sellers than buyers.

If you go back in history it is a truism that has become conventional wisdom that the stock market goes up during an election year. The reasoning is obvious. The president - who ever he is - in office will pull out all the stops to create the illusion that the economy is in good shape and he is the one who takes credit for it. Both Mr. Bush and the Fed chairman better get their best top hat out and reach way down for that white rabbit.

It is going take some real magic to get folks in a buying mood. The lower it goes the less likely they are to buy. Of course Cheap Shoes Replica , brokers are calling and telling investors, "This is the break to buy. Stocks are cheap. Better get on board now. You can't let this opportunity pass by. You can't afford to be out of the market." And on and on with the platitudes. Don't believe any of that hog wash.

What brokers should be telling investors is to protect their money by placing stop loss orders. You can be sure that won't happen. The big brokerage firms frown on stops and punish brokers who encourage customers to use them. Fortunately, when I was a broker I worked for company that did not penalize this concept and I refused to take a customer who would not place stops when they bought something. That is why I never lost customers and had them for years.

This year the major indexes (DOW Shoes Replica , S&P, and NASDAQ) are down. Not a great deal, but definitely lower. This means for those who invest in index mutual funds that they are running a loss. Brokers always say Nike Air Force 1 Replica , "You are in for the long haul" so not to worry about what is happening now. That's what they told you in 2000 and you still have not recovered your losses from then.

No brokerage firm tells the true story of the secular bull and bear markets. These have occurred with great regularity for the past 200 years and will, if history continues to repeat, follow the same course. The shortest secular bear has been 8 years and the longest 25 years. At a minimum we are not half way through this one. Prudent investors (and I hope that's you) will protect their portfolios with stop loss protection on every position. Every broker and financial planner will advise against it Air Force 1 Replica Online , but it your money not theirs.

The market is not magic. Hocus pocus and white rabbits will not make it go up for very long. Illusions are not where it's at. Forget the brokers' abracadabras and place your stop loss protection today.

An inexpensive way to promote your services is to create
various flyers and distribute them wherever you go -- pin
them to the bulletin boards at the library Air Force 1 Replica From China , bookstore,
handout out at networking events, or playing tennis. Here
are 10 tips on how to get your flyer noticed and remembered. 1. Include your picture. People like to connect with others
visually. Color is great Air Force 1 Replica China , yet black and white is fine too. 2. Hook your prospective buyers with the headline in the
top line. For example, read about ______ as it really is!
Give them a reason to read the flyer. Show those benefits! 3. Testimonials that appear authentic are very important.
For some, testimonials that include a two or three-line
quote with initials Wholesale Air Force 1 Replica , last name, and a state are not
perceived as authentic. Make this area two-fold by adding a
call to action along with authenticity. You can use, "visit
my web site for additional testimonials and live links to
contact these people." 4. The flyer needs a call to action. What do you want
someone to do once they read the flyer? Call? Visit web
site? A common mistake is to omit the benefit they get for
taking that action or to place it somewhere else in the
flyer and not next to that request (call to action). 5. Add praise instead of testimonials. Praise does not
necessarily talk about what the flyer topic is discussing.
It can be for something else you do. 6. If selling a product Cheap Air Force 1 Replica , make it easy for them to purchase
the product. Show how they can order online, via fax, or by
phone. Here is a great example of some language: "3 Easy
Steps to Order." Make sure you tell them when they can
expect to receive the product. For skeptics Air Force 1 Replica , offer them a
URL link to get more information. 7. If they can purchase directly from you and you have your
product on hand, write that down on the flyer. Here are
some of the things I write down: "You can usually find me at
Borders every Friday between 3 PM and 5 PM if you want to
discuss anything (or purchase the product)." I do one for
the library as well. I place a flyer on their job board.
It takes the library staff at least 3-5 days before they
discover it. 8. The headline must grab the reader and the first
paragraph must hold them. You have three seconds to
accomplish this. If you are looking for a specific target
market, find out what wordsphrases will get their attention
and write to that audience. If you are not sure change the
hook for different target markets and leave the rest of the
flyer the same. Experiment with several to see what works
until you get the response you want. 9. Carry at least 25 flyers with you in a plastic sealed
folder. This protects them from the elements and keeps them
fresh. Place a piece of cardboard in front and in back for.
