The Dow 40,000 Portfolio The Stocks to Own to Outperform Today's Leading Benchmark David Elias
In Dow 40,000, influential money manager David Elias laid the foundation, and discussed why the Dow Jones Industrial Average should easily reach 40,000 by 2016. Now, with The Dow 40,000 Portfolio, Elias goes one step further, examining 40 companies--some currently included in the DJIA, others that aren't but should be--that stand poised to lead the world economy into the 21st century.
This unflinching book states, quite simply, that the 30-stock DJIA--despite recent adjustments made to reflect today's technology dominated environment--is not truly representative of today's economic landscape. Elias proposes a 40-stock Dow comprised of the companies poised to succeed in the new economy and, using his own detailed fundamental analyses of each company, gives you a clearer, more complete picture of how to more profitably participate in today's dynamic economy--by investing in tomorrow's blue-chips.
The Dow 40,000 Portfolio takes you on a step-by-step process toward constructing a portfolio that will provide exceptional returns today, and continue to strengthen as the DJIA rises to 40,000 and beyond. These steps include:
*An Investor's Guide The history of the Dow from 1896 to today, its performance throughout different eras, and the important terms, ideas, and dynamics that continue to shape it
*Stocks for the Twenty-First Century The 40 stocks that should truly comprise the Dow Jones Industrial Average, with in-depth analyses revealing their strengths--and why they should dominate the new economy
*Model Portfolios Customized portfolios combining stocks from The New Dow 40 with exciting new sector-tracking securities to unlock superior performance for virtually any investor--regardless of age or risk tolerance
Where many of today's investment books rely on theory and technical wizardry, The Dow 40,000 Portfolio goes straight to the gut. You learn the stocks that will comprise tomorrow's blue chip leaders, and how to structure your portfolio for maximum performance through all market environments. The result is a clear-cut template for long-term growth as the Dow continues its inexorable march to levels once thought unimaginable--but destined to be achieved in this generation.
