For many, retirement has become increasingly difficult to both
attain and afford. But there is a way today’s 401(k) participant,
as well as those contributing to similar retirement savings plans,
can turn their retirement dreams into reality.
With over twenty-five years of experience consulting on
retirement plans, author Richard Schmitt knows what it takes to
make the most of them, and now, in 401(k) Day Trading: The Art of
Cashing in on a Shaky Market in Minutes a Day, he shows you
how.
Divided into four comprehensive parts, this reliable resource
takes you step-by-step through the environment, rationale, and
process of day trading your retirement portfolio in minutes a day.
It skillfully outlines an approach to buying low and selling high
through daily fund exchanges–that draws on many of the
fundamental principles of investment management–to exploit
daily market volatility.
