Description
"It's readable, coherent, sensible, good-natured."
-Barron's
Everyone knows you can't time the market, right? Wrong!
The son of a world-famous economist, he's a famous economist himself-as well as an actor, author, and former quiz show host. Teamed with investment psychologist Phil DeMuth, Stein examined a century of stock market data and discovered a profound and original investment truth: Yes, you can time the market! Now that the bubble is over, investors are going to have to be much more careful about how and when they step into the stock market if they want to make money. An instant investment classic, Yes, You Can Time the Market! shows investors simple, readily available measurements to tell them when it's time for stocks, and when it might be time for bonds, real estate, or cash. Written for the investor who wants to preserve capital and build wealth steadily, this book offers prudent, bedrock advice for the man, women, or family who can no longer afford to play games with their money.
Ben Stein (Los Angeles, CA) is the former host of Comedy Central's Emmy Award-winning game show Win Ben Stein's Money, as well as a noted economist and author. Phil DeMuth (Los Angeles, CA) is an investment psychologist who has written for The Wall Street Journal and Barron's, among other publications.
