Esepecially note the concept of the real value of stocks explained at the end of video 2.

Nominal Dow follows the lead of real DOW.

Note:
This is not an advice from me to buy, hold or sell. It is given to you here as information that should be interpreted with other sources of information.

I am also affilliated with EWI, so in a sence I am not neutral.

My own personal advice:

1. Try to understand the nature of the market / instrument you invest in before you invest. Cross read and cross check different views, reports and analysis and make up your own opinion. The more you know, the better is your final decision.
2. Try to understand the social mood when you invest. The biggest losses have been related to market manias.
3. (Invest when everybody hate the market. That is at the market low if you are able to identify that point of time. Exact identification is "impossible").
