Why The Stock Market Is Headed For Disaster
In this presentation, Clarity Financial’s economic analyst Jesse Colombo explains why the U.S. stock market is experiencing a dangerous bubble that is going to burst violently and cause serious damage to the underlying economy.

After having successfully navigated out of the markets in 2008 and identifying the “buying” opportunity in 2009, we continue to understand the importance of proper asset allocation, sector rotation, value and momentum based investing, and a strong, rule based, “buy/sell” investment discipline.
