內容簡介
想要投資獲利，先搞懂美國聯儲貨幣政策，搞懂後，跟著聯儲投資！
為什麼投資前要看本書？作者Robert Johnson回答：「美國聯儲的政策對於投資回報率有著極為巨大的影響，如果投資者無視聯儲，那就是拿自己的錢去冒險」
使用美國聯儲的政策作為預測市場的投資策略是可靠的，別忘了這麼一句話：「美聯儲主席是世界上僅次於美國總統的第二個握有最強大權力者。」投資者要根據聯儲政策對自己的投資組合進行微調，比如說，在緊縮時期適當減持股票和增持商品。當聯儲轉向更為緊縮的姿態，對股市的回報最好就不要抱太大幻想。
本書教導你從另類資產、板塊輪動、國際股票、對沖基金、固定收益證券來了解美國聯儲政策的影響；讀者能有效學習在擴張性美聯儲政策時期賺錢，在縮緊的貨幣政策時期保護投資組合。
A research-based portfolio strategy that uses Fed signals to forecast security market performance
It's often said that the chairman of the Fed is the second most powerful person in the world, next only to the president of the United States. Some say the chairman is even more powerful. When Ben Bernanke publicly stated on September 8, 2013, the Fed's intent to continue its policy of quantitative easing, global markets instantly reversed direction from a worrying downward spiral to an exuberant upward surge. Even POTUS can't do that.
The authors of Invest with the Fed take the simple position that correct interpretation of Federal Reserve policy actions leads to better investing decisions. To this end, they present strategies that will help you design a portfolio that takes Fed policy into account.
The result of three decades of research, Invest with the Fed reveals how the nation's bank routinely signals important clues about its future policy--and it explains how you can use these clues to enhance your portfolio performance.
Learn all there is to know about the implications that Fed policy changes have for:
Value and growth investing
Behavioral and EMT approaches
Alternative assets
Sector rotation
International stocks
Hedge funds
Fixed income securities
