  • (1888PressRelease) June 08, 2012 - San Diego - The recent Dow Jones volatility is the perfect example of a short-term event that should never drive the decisions of long-term investors according to Economist, Investment Counselor and CPA Selwyn Gerber. In fact, a long-term perspective is one of the secrets to successful wealth management revealed in his book The Wealth Blueprint and that RVW Investing, LLC implements for its clients.

    "Let the short-termers react to the loss of 2.7 percent in the Dow Jones one week and a 2-percent-plus rally the next week," said Gerber. "Riding the wave of short-term financial data is not significant to long-term investors. They're able to sleep at night, just as my clients do, because their investment decisions are based on long-term data, such as from 1926 through 2010, the US stock market appreciated at almost 11 percent annually."

    According to Gerber, daily market fluctuations, the machinations of the Fed and the precarious nature of the economies of Greece, Spain and Italy and the frenzied reactions of the financial media and brokers and buyers to such news should be observed, but never allowed to result in an unwise investment decision.

    "Regardless of whether the European Union is able to fix the financial problems of its Mediterranean members, the citizens of these countries will continue to buy the global brand name products that the largest companies sell," said Gerber. "That's why our company invests in European companies, not Euros so to speak, for clients."

    Gerber further stated that these large, global companies, measured as a group, have an earnings yield of more than 7 percent. They have unprecedented cash reserves that likely total $2 trillion, so they can withstand any short-term trauma in the world or markets. In addition, not only will Greeks and Spaniards continue to buy these corporations' products, but so will the 1 billion new consumers from rapidly developing countries who will have the disposable income to buy the same soft drinks, clothing brands and electronics.

    Gerber's financial and investment savvy and singular wit have made him a much sought-after guest on Fox News broadcasts and public radio programming. He is also often booked for speaking engagements, many of which are attended by the growing number of retiring or soon-to-be retired Baby Boomers.
