Episode Description
The Stock Market bottomed out most recently on March 8, 2009 and since that point has risen some 200%. Moreover, each day we continue to grow and hit new market highs, which has some industry pundits questioning when is the next crash going to hit. While most are focusing on the wrong issue of when the markets will drop, the real issue an investor should focus on is do you have the proper tools in your financial portfolio to adapt to a market correction. Join Peter Weitz as he welcomes John Harrington of F Squared Investments, as John will explain how having the appropriate levers in your portfolio, and knowing when to pull on those levers, can save you from heavy market drawdowns. In fact, his process mitigates risk by protecting assets first, then solving for growth. His educational process is one that all investors will want to listen to. In Black and Weitz airs Tuesdays at 10AM eastern and 7AM Pacific on Voice America Business
