Important Updates for Investors
Carla Pasternak's Premiere Issue of High-Yield International Just
Released
Income expert Carla Pasternak's debut issue of High-Yield
International covers a Taiwanese manufacturer yielding 9.5%... a
rare Mexican monopoly yielding 13.4%... and other top-performing
investments yielding up to 19.0%.
Government's Biofuel Timetable Could Spell +15,900% Growth
+15,900% growth might seem far-fetched... but it's not. In fact, it
is mandated by law. And I've identified the ONLY stock positioned to
capture this growth.
The
Silver Lining to a Falling Dollar
Despite the U.S. national debt, there is a silver lining for income
investors. This massive spending, combined with movement out of U.S.
Treasuries, is going to take its toll on the dollar, and
international income investors could reap the rewards in the form of
higher dividends. |

U.S. companies are pouring billions of dollars into the Russian market. Your
portfolio could benefit from this renewed interest.
The Russian markets look forward to further foreign
investment.

Take China's Lead to Profit +30% By Year's End
Standing at one of China's iron ore ports, you would hardly know we were in the
midst of a global economic slowdown. The congestion at the ports has reached
record levels as 84 capesize dry bulk carriers -- nearly 10% of the entire
world's fleet -- wait for a berth to unload their cargos. With commodity prices
well off their highs, China has gone on a commodity buying spree in Australia. I
love a bargain too, but that's just one of the reasons why I've made +30% on my
investment since April by following China's example -- and why I expect to make
another +30% before the year is out.

Why
1,471 Hedge Funds Failed Last Year
Hedge funds failed en masse in 2008, when nearly 1,500 closed their doors. Many
of these closures were due to the complexity of the funds themselves. When a bad
market hit, they couldn't help but get caught in the downward spiral. But what
can investors learn? The best thing you can do for your portfolio is to keep it
simple. In today's issue, I'll tell you the three reasons a simple portfolio
will improve your returns and help you avoid the fate of too many hedge funds.

What
Buffett Says About Diversification Will Shock You
The Wall Street "experts" always say
diversification is key to having a stable portfolio. But buying an S&P 500 Index
fund would have returned -38.7% over the last year. Doesn't sound too stable to
me. What we're seeing in today's market is a school of thought that even Warren
Buffett has subscribed to for years -- simplifying your portfolio and
concentrating on your best ideas -- is the best way to beat the Street.
Skin in the Game: Another
Lesson Courtesy of Bernie Madoff
How much of his own money did Bernie Madoff have invested in the asset
management arm of his company, Bernard Madoff Investment Securities LLC? Not a
dime -- and for obvious reasons. Madoff knew his operation was a Ponzi scheme.
After all, he set it up that way. When you poison the water, you're hardly the
first one in line for a drink at the well. But avoiding a poisoned investment
scheme is just one reason why investors should want insiders investing right
along side them.

This Secret Market Signal Outperformed
"Buy and Hold" by +117%
What investors really want to know right now is if the market has bottomed --
and if it's safe to invest new money. After all, if you got into the market just
after the last recession ended in December 2001, you would have lost more than
-20% before the market bottomed in October the following year.
Fortunately, I've just unearthed a readily available, yet little-known market indicator. And if you had used its "buy" and "sell"
signals, you would have made +76.3% on an investment tied to the S&P
500, versus
taking an -18.7% loss by simply buying and holding over the last eight years.
