Why is October an integral month for predicting market bottoms? Why do ideal buy opportunities occur in years ending in "2" or "3"? How do you tell when stocks are undervalued? The answers to questions like these can help you recognize the stock market's historical patterns--and ultimately profit from them. The Right Stock at the Right Time: Prospering in the Coming Good Years shows you how.

In this indispensable, one-of-a-kind guide, forty-year industry veteran and top technical analyst Larry Williams throws down the gauntlet at the feet of the bear market pundits. Rejecting their pessimism-clouded view of the market, Williams reveals how you can prosper from knowing the fundamentals that have moved stocks in the past and will continue to move them in the future.

Relying on exhaustive research (which includes stock market prices as far back as 1854), the author demonstrates that rallies are common to all market periods. With these historical precedents as guideposts, he explains how you can zero in on the market bottom and ride the inevitable upswing that follows.

The Right Stock at the Right Time covers:

• How to instantly tell if your stock is a good value
• The key stock market patterns every investor should know--from the "ten-year pattern" to the "four-year phenomena"
• The unique relationship between seasonality and stock prices
• What makes investor sentiment--and knowing how to gauge it--so crucial
• How to use the bond market to predict the stock market
• Why a consistent focus on value is a smarter strategy than chasing highflying stocks or trying to make a killing in the market
• Reasons to avoid buying rumor or concept stocks
• How to buy stocks at a "discount"
• Finding an approach to money management that works for you
• Why industries like entertainment and transportation will be the ones to watch in the coming market recovery

Finally, Williams reminds us that in the last 200 years of recorded stock market activity, the substantial market corrections, or dips, along the way are something else altogether: buying opportunities. In The Right Stock at the Right Time, the future has never looked so lucrative.
