Contrarians say that, when it comes to investing, the crowd is wrong more often than it is right--and prove it with their 200-year history of success! The Triumph of Contrarian Investing is a fascinating, in depth examination of the impact of crowd psychology on markets, how the crowd is often predictably incorrect, and how investors can use long-proven contrarian investing strategies to uncover tremendous buying and selling opportunities.

Ned Davis, one of today's biggest names in investing, reveals:

* How to ignore the temptation to "join the crowd" and uncover tremendous opportunities

* Consistent signs that a stock's price has been driven too high or too low

* Strategies for protecting contrarian portfolios when--as sometimes happens--the crowd is right



In The Triumph of Contrarian Investing, Ned Davis - one of today's most respected and influential market analysts - delivers both qualitative and quantitative proof that, when emotion is at its highest, the investing herd is almost certain to be running in the wrong direction. He then provides indicators to help you determine when crowd psychology is at an extreme, and outlines a disciplined approach for remaining fully and profitably invested in strong market environments while foreseeing and avoiding major market disasters.

This first-of-its-kind contrarian investor's rule book will show you how to :

* understand the powerful forces of crowd psychology and its historic and predictable impact on financial markets

* quality and analyze crowd sentiment to identify when that sentiment has gone too far - and is poised to reverse

* ignore popular perceptions and your own emotions to sell during periode sof extreme optimism and buy during extreme pessimism.



The Triumph of Contrarian Investing combines both qualitative and quantitative indicators into a successful contrarian strategy .

Let Ned Davis's The Triumph of Contrarian Investing provide you with analysis and indicators proven to spotlight those points at which investor optimism or pesimism is at its strongest, then show you how to go against the grain - and profit- in virtually every instance.
