The Mutual Fund Wealth Builder: A Profit-Building Guide for the Savvy Mutual Fund Investor

This is a great book! You can really tell that Mr. Dick Fabian's objective is to help out small investors to make money on the market. He outlines a specific trading strategy that will get you into the market when the trend is up, and out of the market when the trend is down. About the 39WAR that the other people are complaining about, saying that it cannot be found anywhere on the web, and that it is a sales pitch. This is not true. 39WAR is the same as 200-day moving average, which are generally available on any charting software, as well as online charting sites like Yahoo Finance, Stockcharts, and Big Charts. How did I came into this conclusion? Easy: 39 Weeks = (39 x 5) days = 195 days - five days, since the market only trades during the weekdays. I believe the 39WAR is a relic from the past, since during the earlier days, market data are most accessible via weekly reports on newspapers. Furthermore, most investors would not want to calculate 200-day averages by hand - it's just too tedious. But of course, with the advent of computers and the Internet, any decent spreadsheet can do this calculations for you.

I am not sure where Tom G is coming from but his test is wrong. I don't think he truly understands the Fabian System because those who followed it were out of the market 7 days before the maket crash of 2000 so I don't see where he gets Portfolio Disaster.This book has changed my outlook on life and money. The system described in this book has over 40 years of data to back it's radical approach to investing and when applied to your finances will drastically improve your investment potential. The great thing about this book is that it is easy to understand no matter what your level of investment knowledge is. If you are seriously thinking about beginning investment, please do yourself a favor and read this book. Managing your investments only take a few minutes a week and it is simple, all you need is dicipline.

Buy this book. Read it, all of it. Then implement the trend- following plan which the author recommends. Dick Fabian's plan is simple and profitable. You will make more money with about half the risk.

The title of this book should be "How to succeed when almost every other method will surely fail." Dick Fabian is as much psychologist and motivator as he is "savvy investor advisor." And I say "investor" here because that's where Fabian puts the emphasis. He shows that the investor's worst enemy is himself, and that his second and third worst enemies are the media and "investment" advisors. As an astute student of the stock market and human behavior, Fabian has catalogued every way an investor can fail (and there are many), and he has also devised a simple, but diligent, approach to investing that prevents that failure. The result, if one follows his method, is almost certain success. The first part of the book is investor psychology. Many will be tempted to skip it and move on to the simple investing technique. That's one of the ways to fail. This is a profound book that can change lives. Read the whole thing, start to finish, then read it again. Then put what you learn into action. It's all there -- the complete formula for success!

I feel that anyone who is serious about investing needs to review the ideas and past history of the stock market that are explained in this book.
