Are you sick and tired of being stressed out by the stock market's every move? Have you had it with losing big money every time the market turns south? Read on to discover quantitative investment management, also known as the absolute return investing, the low stress and high yield approach to investments.
Most people invest with their gut. And their gut is an awful investment advisor. To make money in the stock market, you need to buy low and sell high. But that's not how your gut works. It gets excited when the market goes up and wants you to start buying when the stocks are moving towards their highest prices, and when they come crashing back down, it wants you to sell. The result -- you stand to lose a lot of money.
Enter the quantitative investment approach. It takes the gut out of the equation. Instead, you're dealing with sophisticated computer models and the input from experienced investment advisors. Of course you will need the right kind of computer models. And you definitely need the right kind of advisors, ones who are working entirely on your behalf, i.e., fee-only advisors.
And make sure that your advisor's investment philosophy is based on quantitative investment strategies, not buy and hold, and that he is not pushing mutual funds.
There are two parts to the quantitative investment approach. Its sophisticated computer models analyze essentially two crucial components that contribute to investment success: the market and individual equities.
1) The market
The computer models analyze the market based on countless indicators and data to determine where the stock market is headed -- up or down. So it can tell you whether it's a good idea to be in the stock market at any given moment -- or not.
There are alternatives, after all. And cash gives you the most flexibility. So if the market is not the place to be, cash keeps your money safe for the time being, yet it also allows you to put it to work the minute the market turns around again.
In a nutshell, a computer generated system will tell you when to invest -- or buy -- and when to get out -- or sell. And it takes all the emotions out of it. You follow the calculations, and the results tend to be far more accurate than your gut could ever be. And far more rewarding.
2) Selecting equities
You also need the second key component of a successful quantitative investment management approach to really make it work. And that part involves selecting the specific equities in which to invest. After all, you need to know where to invest the money when it's time to be in the market in order to get good results.
And that's where quantitative investment management approach really shines. Traditional mutual funds tend to have lots of clunkers mixed in with the good funds. In fact, they give the 80/20 rule a whole new meaning.
With the quantitative approach, the computer selects the best of the best, which results in a portfolio of winners. The computer will also continue to monitor those equities and indicate that it might be time to sell if any of them should stop performing to specifications.

Why An Ad Tracker Could Be Your Most Important Internet Marketing Investment by Malcolm Leyshon
Investing in a high quality ad tracking program is essential if you're serious in making money with affiliate programs. It will also be important to learn how to use the program to constantly monitor and improve the performance of your advertisements.
How does an ad tracking program work?
The process in setting everything up is quite simple. When you're ready to post an advertisement or affiliate link, you will want to replace that link with an ad tracker link. This is set up using your ad tracking program. All you have to do is enter your original link into the program that you want to track, and then click a button. The program will then generate a tracking link which you use in place of the original link.
For example, if you want to write a classified ad without using a tracking URL, you would just add the URL of the web page in the classified ad. But, when you use an ad tracker to monitor your advertisements, you enter the original web page URL into the ad tracking program, and then you insert the new tracking URL that was generated into the classified ad.
If you don't use a tracking URL, then any clicks on that link can't be tracked. You'll have no idea how many clicks it receives or where the traffic is coming from. On the other hand, tracked URL's will allow you to see when somebody clicks on the link. You will be able to see exactly how many people have clicked on that particular link.
Why is it important to track your ads?
Any active marketer will have numerous advertisements placed in various spots across the internet. If they don't track their ads, they have no way of knowing which ads are effective and which ads are not. They'll have no way of systematically improving their ad performance.
The marketers who track their advertising are able monitor which ads perform well and which perform badly, and adjust accordingly. When an ad is replaced, the new ad will be tracked, and its performance can be measured through the ad tracking software. This is simple but very powerful because if it's consistently applied, your ads are guaranteed to improve over time as you filter out the losers and run with the winners.
When you realize how simple the concept of ad tracking actually is, it is amazing to know that so-called Internet marketers shy away from using it. Yes, ad trackers do require a little more work, but a little effort can bring much greater efficiency and profit potential.
Most ad tracking programs will show you more than just the number of clicks a URL generates. They can also track where your traffic is coming from and record IP addresses and time logs. You will be able see first-time and repeat visitors as well as the keywords they used to find your web pages. You will also be able to monitor additional activity on your website.
Utilizing an ad tracker is important to see what works and what doesn't work with your advertisements. Without an ad tracker, you are marketing in the dark.

What is the best Structure for Investment Property Partnerships? by Paul Easton
Partnership simply is the joining together of two or more individuals or entities in a common undertaking or enterprise.
From an accounting, taxation and legal point of view, you can trade your partnership through various trading vehicles including companies and loss attributing qualifying companies, joint ventures, special partnerships, general partnership, limited partnerships, or even Trusts.
Each trading vehicle should have an agreement created between the partners to the investment outlining their obligations and their rights.
In a company for example, this is done in a standard shareholders agreement. In a partnership, the partnership agreement.
In a joint venture, the joint venture agreement etc. Which Trading Vehicle? Selecting the correct structure is a mix of analysing many factors and choosing the vehicle that produces the most benefits for your situation.
A brief summary of things to consider would include the following (regarding partnerships from a property investor's context):
1. The Implications of Asset Protection (including limited liability versus unlimited liability for actions of the partnership, and liability for the banking obligations of the partnership by the partners)
LAQC's require shareholders that are electing into the LAQC regime to personally guarantee the IRD for income tax.
This can be managed easily for small shareholders, but asset protection consideration that must be looked at.
Also to be reviewed is the question of if your proposed structure is creating wealth outside of a trust, and if so is it possible to both have your losses accessible and contain capital gains inside your Trust for asset protection and avoiding future gifting problems?
2. Flexibility of ownership: Can you change partners without triggering depreciation recovered? The answer is 'Yes' for an LAQC, 'No' for most partnership circumstances.
3. Flow through of tax losses: will the trading vehicle let you access the losses?
4. Flow through of capital gains: will the trading vehicle allow easy access to capital gains at the end of the investment, or do you have to liquidate (for example a company will require liquidation unless it is a qualifying company to access capital gains tax exempt in NZ).
5. Cross border tax considerations: for those investing off shore or cross-border, comlex tax issues could arrise? Like capital gains tax, non resident withholding tax, the implication of the New Zealand Accrual rules and foreign exchange movements, and double tax on dividend income.
In general as specialist property investment accountants, we recommend the use of an expert chartered accountant to help you with these issues.

Knowledge is Key to Preventing Work at Home Frauds
The best ammunition to have when looking for real work online is to have a thorough knowledge of the typical work at home scams. Though these exist is many forms including tedious craft building tasks, we will focus on those strictly related to the net.
Paid information
Work at home scams include supplying you, the honest individual, a list of apparently legitimate work from home jobs. These "opportunities" are usually advertised as looking for "home workers" but may even offer specialised lists such as work from home typing or writing. These lists are usually offered to you online via a website, job listing or random email. The company then offers to deliver the priceless content either as a physical package or in the form of a document by mail. Obviously they do not come free, but ask a fee for this seemingly invaluable information.
Though you will most certainly get something for your cash, it is more likely to be an outdated list of real opportunities long since filled or a conglomeration of adverts for more such work at home scams. In the most extreme cases, what is delivered is actually a virus, which in fact you essentially not only requested, but even paid for, cash!
Medical processing
Medical processing jobs are most often work at home scams that promise a short course to do a job which essentially takes years to master. They promise that you can process claims for various health care professionals but require you to pay for some software and a course. This is not a job that you can learn in one single course and not worth the financial investment that you are guaranteed to lose.

After reading these 2 reasons and understanding them you're going to realize that this is actually a good investment.
#1 Profits Are Better Than Wages In The Long Run
It is a known fact that profits are better than wages and when you work your business effectively in the long run you're going to be able to make a lot of profit. Many people think that wages are good because you get them right away and you know exactly what you're going to get every week in a paycheck. But the truth is that it does not matter how much work you do you're still going to get the same amount of paycheck but when it comes to profit by putting in more hard work and effort you're going to increase the profits that you make.
#2 You Will Have Full Control Of Your Life
By being part of an online business opportunity and actually investing in it you're going to have full control of your life because you're going to be able to do exactly what you want to do and how you want to do it. A lot of people that work for companies are very stressed out because they have no control of it and whenever someone tells them to do something they have to do it because is a job.
Having control of your life and also your business is going to be very beneficial down the road when you want to expand or increase your profits. You have no option when you're working for company because they decide what to do with you and sometimes even fire you for no reason. This will not be the case in an online business opportunity since you are your own boss.

The Best Way to Start a Business With No Cash Investment
So many people, at some point in their lives, think of starting a business themselves. Unfortunately that's as far as they get, thinking about it. Perhaps fear of losing money rather than making it stops them or they may be unsure how how to get started with their business idea.
With a traditional business model there always are startup and running costs which can eat into your savings and add to the fear of failure. Thankfully, due to the internet, it is possible to start and run a business online without the necessity of a large capital investment.
When you start a business online, it really is possible to only have to pay for your computer and internet access. No further expenditure is necessary and the absence of startup capital is and incredible bonus. With no investment there is no fear of failure although with no financial commitment sometimes people do not work as hard as they could do.
There are many possible business models and activities to pursue on the internet and my own favorite is internet marketing.
Although internet marketing can be started with no investment it is possible to reinvest profits into your online business to help it grow and prosper more. Once your new business starts to generate an income it is good practice and cost effective to create a small budget to promote it more.
Internet marketing usually is based on affiliate business, promoting products that pay a commission. While the commissions may only be in the region of $20, the business model allows you to create multiple streams of income from different sources.
Over time, this multiple income sources begin to add up until the total daily commissions earned from different product sales can be considerable. Daily income levels of $500, $1000 or more are not uncommon.
As with all business, action is the secret ingredient. Great ideas are nothing without effort to manifest them. Now with the internet, it is possible to start a business online without startup money. It takes your dedication and effort and both of those don't cost you anything.
One other facet to success in any business is of course, experience. The more experience you have the more chance of success you have. Internet marketing is no different in that respect.
There obviously is a period of learning although often people start to become profitable quite quickly and the sheer joy of realizing you are starting to make money is a great boost and encourages you to try harder.
Often, not concentrating on one particular market for long enough is a reason for failure. Hopping from one business direction to another can result in frustration and a low profit potential. A clear focus on one market is the best way to not only make a profitable business but also gain the valuable experience for future campaigns.

How to Easily Invest in Penny Stocks By Bryan Burbank
Everyone today is looking for a way to make a buck fast. With a declining economy, high unemployment, rampant foreclosures and worthless retirements Americans are turning to alternate methods of investments. Especially those that will not take a lot of money out of their pockets.
Penny stocks is just one of those methods. What is this kind of stocks? They are common stocks that cost less than $5.00 a share. Today it is impossible to buy stocks for a penny but $5.00 seems like a good deal. Just keep in mind when you purchase peny stock they are usually offered by new untested companies, who are looking for a way to raise capital. In this article I will highlight some of the things you should know before you invest your hard earned money in penny stocks.
First, it is essential that you find out as much as you can about a particular penny stock. It is true that you could possibly earn some money quickly but at the same time many people have also lost money fast.
Secondly, you should work with a broker who is familiar with stocks. You want someone who deals with them on a regular basis and will tell you the truth, not what they think you want to hear.
Third, if you do not use a broker I suggest you at least subscribe to an online subscription service. With the aid of a broker or an online service you should be able to be a more informed investor.
Fourth, One thing you should definitely be aware of is that penny stocks are dealt with over the counter, not on the stock exchange. Therefore brokers work on commissions based on transactions.
Fifth, become knowledgeable with the different companies that offer penny stocks. You want to invest your money with well run companies that offer a decent product. You want to feel that the company has a good chance of success.
Lastly, you should never have more than 10% of your portfolio in penny stocks and do keep in mind that 70% of investors do lose money with penny stocks.

Avoid Mistakes While Investing in the Market By Vijay Kumar Sharma
A stock market investment is a lucrative option for enhancing one's wealth. Brilliant success stories have been written where people from humble backgrounds have converted their moderate wealth to considerable riches and went on to become millionaires. But at the same time there have also been people who have staked huge amounts in the market and have miserably lost it all. So in order to avoid tragic possibilities one should employ some general cautions and follow some basic steps to avoid committing mistakes.
One primary mistake is that people generally do not diversify their investment. When you are investing huge sums into a particular sector of industry, you are running the risk of capital loss. Investing narrowly without proper diversification intensifies the portfolio risk factor. Mitigate risks by distributing your eggs in several baskets.
Proper timing is crucial for stock market success. Based on their instincts or the current market swings, traders are in the habit of employing the right timing strategies to earn profits. But as we all know many times the market behave in a skewed way nullifying all predictions. Thus when an investor invests a lot with the expectation that prices would go up further or when he sells off hefty amount of shares in a falling market in a panic and the market does something different contrary to all predictions it is then that the investor loses big way.
Generally, people have been known to avoid reinvesting the money they gain from one investment. They just hold on to their proceeds in cash. Investors are advised to reinvest their incurred profits in various other stocks creating a diverse portfolio.
People also tend to take decisions on the basis of their emotions rather than on market reality. This is another serious mistake, which even experienced people make while playing in stocks. They prefer to go by instincts rather than going by data collected from extensive market surveys.
If you are not careful, you might also end up paying huge sums as investment fees or commissions. So before investing, consider the factors like investment trading fees, investment transaction fees, and investment advice fees because they might just add up to lower your investment returns considerably. Search for brokerages with modest commissions in order to have healthy investment returns.
Acquiring debts through credit cards for investing is another big mistake which some resort to. But one should remember that money borrowed through credit cards is not free money and there's the possibility of getting mired in debts as the loan amount along with interest keeps on getting accumulated.
Some people explore stock markets very late in life. This delay in investment can be translated as missed opportunities. But even retired people can go ahead and invest any amount that they won't need for a few years. One is never too young or too old to be investing in stock market.
Having too ambitious expectations from the market might also act as a deterrent in some cases. You might not be satisfied with the returns and go out in search of more opportunities with even higher returns. The newer portfolio might just be too risky and also you might lose out on the modest earnings that you were enjoying from your previous investments.
So at the end of the day in order to avoid the most common errors made while investing, you need to have a bit of market knowledge, base your decisions on realistic data, understand your investments well and track your investments regularly. Do not follow the advice of your broker blindly, have a set goal, assess your risk levels clearheadedly and allocate your funds wisely and at the end of the day you would be a happy man fully satisfied with your market returns.
