FREDERICK, MARYLAND. August 6, 2009 – – Investors don’t have to lose any of their portfolios when the stock market plummets, says Senior Financial Strategist, Samuel N. Asare, MBA, CRPC, CMFC. Mr. Asare will speak at a free seminar at the C. Burr Artz Public Library in Frederick on Saturday, August 29 at 11:30 a.m. to outline, among other topics, a simple investment strategy that provides downside protection against market risk, yet earns competitive equity-linked returns when the market is doing well.

“Americans have been brainwashed into thinking that to grow a sizable nest egg they must accept risk, volatility, and unpredictability as part of the process. That’s not true,” says Mr. Asare
“Not a single one of our clients have lost even a dime during this economic tsunami” says Mr. Asare. “While it is true that no financial expert can predict the exact future movements of the markets, there’s absolutely no need to gamble and risk losing everything,” he explains.
What’s even worse, tens of millions of investors have faithfully followed the conventional rules that told them they’d be okay in the long term. Now, their retirement accounts are decimated. “Those young enough may be able to rebuild, but what about those who are already retired or are just a few years away from retiring? When exactly is the long term?” Mr. Asare asks.
The overwhelming majority of investors are not aware that the type of strategy advocated by Mr. Asare even exists. “Every time we share this information with investors, their response is one of awe,” Asare says. “I talk to local residents every day who are feeling confused and powerless because they think there’s no way out. That’s why we host these types of free, informational events,” he added.
