Lunch and Learn Series

We have all heard the phrase “history repeats itself.” Yet, very few people apply long-term history to the art and science of investing. There is no better example of this than how the majority of modern investors, the most knowledgeable and technologically advanced in history, mishandled the 50% stock market corrections during the dotcom bust and the Great Recession. Learn about time-tested investment tools from Ken Winans' award-winning financial history book, Investment Atlas II, and how to improve investment performance and reduce losses in future bull and bear markets.
