Monthly eNews email update
Investing in Cyclical Stocks
eNews + eBook Articles Update #46 - September 2012
Dear Reader,    
  
This month's eNews email is going to all Toolbox Members as normal, and to some non-members, and includes very useful information about the subject of investing in cyclical stocks. This includes consideration of the infamous Investment Clock (pictured at right). More details are included below.
 
Any non-member who no longer wants to receive this material can simply unsubscribe from all topics using the SafeUnsubscribe link at the bottom - or just Update Your Profile to change your interests. (Toolbox Members and BullCharts mailing list members should not unsubscribe, as it will remove you from all lists.)
 
Please remember, anything mentioned here, and in the referred eBook Articles, is for general education only, and is not advice of any sort.
 

Please read on....  

About the eNews emails...
Just a short note to the recently new Toolbox Members:- These eNews emails always go to Toolbox Members (a part of the Toolbox service), and to the people who have registered to receive occasional information about the Share Market. This is a monthly email with some pointers and tips on focused topics - see a quick intro to the eNews emails. They often include references to specific eBook Articles
in my Share Market Toolbox, as well as key web pages in the free area of the Toolbox (eg. on the extensive Share Market web page). I have been writing the eBook Articles since October 2008 - that is now four years, and these eNews emails help you to navigate to related and useful information each month.
This month's focus:
Investing in Cyclical Stocks

The ASX again invited me to write a contribution for the monthly ASX Investor Update newsletter (on behalf of the ATAA) to be published on Tuesday 9th October. You might know that I was also asked to contribute to the June issue evaluating four "mum and dad" stocks, and the August issue on the topic of Price Breakouts.
 
I also have a special web page with links to key information from these ASX Investor Update newsletters. And you can see past editions of all these newsletters at the ASX web site. They are sent each month to 220,000 registered free subscribers to the ASX service.
 
More details on this month's focus are below, so please read on...

Since starting this new format for the monthly eNews email in December 2010, I have accumulated many topic-specific discussions. Rather than list them all here (as I had been doing), it is best to refer to the latest detailed list in the eNews email archive in the Toolbox.
Investing in Cyclical Stocks

For the October ASX Investor Update newsletter I was asked to explain how we could use technical analysis to identify cyclical stocks, and to chart some cyclical stocks against their relevant sector index. Instead of doing this, I have written some material which could be a little controversial. It basically explains how it is difficult to justify spending a lot of time analysing sectors, and the economic cycle, because it can be complex, and very vague, involving a lot of assumptions (guesswork). Anyway, you should read the article when it is published by the ASX on 9th October, or read the same material in my new eBook Article ST-6310 (see the link below).
 
I have prepared some materials as follows: There are now a total of 124 Articles in this collection of eBook Articles - a total of 547 pages of information! You can see the Table of Contents for all Articles here (recently new or updated ones are highlighted), and the Detailed Toolbox Index here.

 
Don't forget to see the updated Table of Contents pages for all articles (see links in the side-bar at right).  

eBook (PDF) Articles - Summary 
 

Since October 2008 I have accumulated quite a collection of eBook (PDF) Articles on three subject areas - Share Trading/Investing, Technical Analysis and BullCharts software (actually more than 540 pages of material in more than 120 articles). These Articles are invaluable for both new and experienced investors and traders. I am now writing brief monthly notes in this eNews email to highlight specific Articles on targeted topics. I am also writing new Articles and updating existing ones as required.

For any new readers of my Toolbox eBook Articles, there are some useful introductory Articles including an Introduction and an Overview Article for each of the three subject areas. You can see them here:
Any problems?
What if you have some sort of problem with accessing the Toolbox and any of these Articles? Or maybe the Username and Password doesn't work. If there is any problem at all, simply contact me by email or phone. The best email address for this is: support@robertbrain.com. Occasionally emails disappear - the system thinks they are spam, or the ISP might think they are spam. If I don't reply within a day or so, please contact me by either email address or phone.
In Closing

There is nothing secret in this email, so feel free to forward it to someone if you think they might benefit from the information, or from being a Toolbox Member. The easiest way to do this is to use the "Forward Email" link at the bottom. 
 
I am also confident that my Toolbox Members won't be sharing their username and password with non-members. It is not fair that I spend all this time preparing the materials, and then my Toolbox Members pay money to have legitimate access, only to let some people pay nothing to read and view the details.
 
Please feel free to email an individual Article to others as a sample; but if they want online access to all the materials, it is pretty cheap, so they should subscribe as a Toolbox Member. There is information about Toolbox Membership in the Quick Links section at right. 
 
Always happy to receive feedback, or suggestions for new content or improvements.
 
Until next month,
happy investing or trading,


Watch out for the sharks in the ocean! Robert B. Brain
