Over the last two years, the mainstream financial experts have fired more shots from their bear-market-fighting "bazookas" than Rambo. Yet through it all, the raging grizzly has absorbed every bailout blow and rate-cut bomb with unflinching ease, growing ever more powerful along the way.
Fact is, they had little chance of succeeding to begin with. They still don't, so long as their method to solving the crisis is by attacking it. You can't fight what you can't see, and the driving force of the bear is internal in nature; namely, the dominant pattern in our mass (or social) mood.
Throughout the course of history, there has been ONE way to survive and prosper during a deflationary market: Anticipate its approach, and then, adapt to its new, ever-shifting environment.
Accomplishing the first task is the singular honor of Elliott Wave International's team of expert analysts, including president Bob Prechter: His 2002 book Conquer the Crash warned that the "New Economic Boom" would soon end in a historic "credit bust," "real estate slump" and deflationary collapse of most, if not all, asset classes. 

Now that the bearish scenario has come to pass, adapting to its temperament is crucial to survival and profit making. And, in the brand-new February Elliott Wave Theorist's "Special Investment Issue," Bob Prechter reveals exactly how to keep your money safe and strong during this "most severe downturn since the Great Depression."

(How To Befriend The Bear: In the latest Elliott Wave Theorist, Bob Prechter reveals where the biggest bear-market opportunities for safety are unfolding now. Get the exclusive "Special Investment Issue" today, absolutely risk-free.)

Here are just a few of the new Theorist's (EWT) most compelling wealth (and health) saving insights:
  • Stocks At a 12-Year Low: Should I Stay OR Should I Go? Two days before the S&P 500 hit its all-time July 19, 2007 peak, on July 17 The Elliott Wave Theorist wrote: "Aggressive speculators should return to a fully leveraged short position now." Flash ahead to today: The latest Theorist recognizes FOUR reasons why it's time to adopt another strategy.
  • There Is a Safe Haven, it's just not the one you think:"Fear Not: Municipal [and corporate] bonds can offer an extreme dose of security" (New York Daily News). Can you say, California, Michigan, or G.M. on the brink of bankruptcy? The new Theorist reveals the ONE "real asset" that "can never become a participant in a credit bubble, and thereby subject to a bust."
  • Will the "REAL" Dow Please Stand Up: The new EWT presents TWO shocking close-ups of the Dow Industrial Average priced in ounces of gold. From its July 1999 peak, prices have already plunged 83% to BELOW its Great Depression bottom! 
  • Can the Fed Keep Treasury-bond Prices Afloat? EWT reveals a "stunning piece of Daily Sentiment Index data" never seen before in any market or commodity. This extreme reading sends a clear message about whether triple-A debt will fulfill its bullish promise.
  • A "Fatal Mistake" In the Business World: EWT reveals why some companies (such as "airlines, manufacturers, newspapers, shippers, and sports teams") will NOT be "better served" by laying off their employees.
That's only the beginning. The latest Elliott Wave Theorist "Special Investment Issue" is the ultimate bear-market survival guide. Act now to see the complete publication, risk-free.
