    Economic Empowerment

    We all dream about getting rich quickly and easily.

    We are fed with stories that if you want to get rich, all you have to do is invest in a good company's stock or operate a small business by using your head, your desire, and some hard work.

    For the most part, however, learning about the stock market is not easy, and anyone who says otherwise hasn't been on this earth lately.

    We all dream about getting rich quickly and easily.

    We are fed with stories that if you want to get rich, all you have to do is invest in a good company's stock or operate a small business by using your head, your desire, and some hard work.

    For the most part, however, learning about the stock market is not easy, and anyone who says otherwise hasn't been on this earth lately.

    The truth is that there are some significant players at play here: stock markets can be manipulated by large corporations who control the markets, there are many people who are smarter than you are, and they will always be sucking up money from the small fish until there's nothing left for them to take, etc.

    Small investors do not have the time to be glued to their monitors and watch the market.

    These investors work hard throughout the day to earn a living for themselves and their families.

    These are people who need financial security, but they cannot afford to pay a ridiculously high fee to prominent name portfolio managers.

    I led a team of local investors to devise a swing trading strategy that generates about 20-25% returns yearly consistently.

    The drawdowns one can experience are in the range of 15% from the peak.
