Synopsis

HOW TO GROW AND DEFEND YOUR WEALTH
What matters when it comes to investing? It’s not what you may think. Trade deals, tweets, and more may affect the market for a moment in time, but the reality is most news is just noise― sound bites that ultimately don’t matter. So, what does?
Steve Blumenthal has spent his career studying just that. He’s seen how that noise encourages investors to behave badly. But you don’t have to fall prey to the same mistakes investors routinely make. On My Radar: Navigating Stock Market Cycles explains the ins and outs of what matters: from long- and short-term debt cycles to the merciless math of loss―the concept that compounding interest works differently on the way up than it does on the way down―and the impact of recessions.
Then it provides a plan: when to play offense, when to play defense, and how to carefully grow and defend your core wealth in a way that enables you to explore select investment opportunities that may further enhance your wealth. It is a must read for anyone seeking an actionable investment process.

Praise for On My Radar: Navigating Stock Market Cycles

“With a rare clarity of thought and a wealth of experience, Steve Blumenthal has given many of us invaluable advice on investing for more than twenty years. On My Radar: Navigating Stock Market Cycles is the text version of his extraordinary weekly On My Radar publication: chock full of insight, brilliant in its simplicity.”
WADE BARNETT, managing director, J.P. Morgan

“On My Radar: Navigating Stock Market Cycles pulls together the best of Steve’s thinking and … suggests a sound process, a road map of sorts, for investors to know where they are in the market cycle, what that means in terms of probable future returns and relative risks, and how to both grow and defend your wealth.”
JOHN MAULDIN

“We may be in for a decade of low returns because of today’s high stock prices, but Steve’s portfolios, thoughtfully designed to face this challenge, will thrive. If the 2030s are a decade of high returns, he will adjust his portfolios to take advantage of the opportunities the investment world presents at that time. Everyone needs a road map to reach their investment goals, and this is the Google Maps of investment portfolios.”
KEVIN MALONE, Greenrock Research
