Money – Protect and Grow

The first book of its kind, Investing with Intelligent ETFs scrutinizes one of the most innovative and popular investment securities on the financial market today. Attracted to ETFs’ built-in diversification and their flexibility regarding trading and investing styles, high-level investors have been flocking to them for several years. At the present time, there are 646 ETFs, containing $620 billion in assets, and the types of strategies used are continually growing.

Max Isaacman, author of the groundbreaking How to be an Index Investor, offers a timely analysis that provides a close look at the intelligent ETFs available today, explaining how to use the latest securities and indexes to add risk-adjusted gain (alpha) to your portfolio. He introduces you to the various ETF providers and supplies the information you’ll need about the many securities variations, including the most complex and specialized. You’ll learn how to invest in:

• New intelligent ETFs that use quantitative measurements to beat the market
• Fundamentally weighted ETFs, which at times outperform cap-weighted ETFs
• Passive ETFs for sector representation and market participation
• BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India, China) ETFs, from the fastest growing economies in the world

Investing with Intelligent ETFs explains how these and other ETFs are constructed, and why they are superior to stocks and mutual funds. Illustrating strategies previously available only to professional investors, it helps you maximize your leverage and versatility in today’s increasingly complex but profitable global market. With this thorough, insightful book, you can participate in new innovative investment strategies with all the knowledge and confidence you’ll need.

Max Isaacman, a leading expert on Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) and author of How to be an Index Investor, provides a comprehensive look at the new generation of ETFs, which are constructed to outperform the initial indexes and add risk-adjusted gain to your portfolio. Providing the flexibility of stocks and the diversification of indexing, ETFs are among the most exciting and fastest-growing investment tools today. Despite their popularity, however, there has been no single resource to help investors take advantage of intelligent ETFs–until now.

Investing with Intelligent ETFs shows how these securities are constructed and enables you to execute professional-level investment strategies. Some of these securities are constructed to increase returns by as much as 200 percent. Isaacman provides important information and insight into the new ETFs that:

• Track indexes of currencies and commodities
• Provide exposure to emerging markets
• Have a low correlation to the stock market
• Generate better returns in down to sideways markets
• Replicate a fundamentally weighted index

According to Isaacman, intelligent ETFs are the ideal stock market investment. With charts and graphs comparing new security performance to that of the original classes, Investing with Intelligent ETFs helps you get in on one of the most innovative financial securities of our time.
