TrimTabs Investing - Using Liquidity Theory to Beat the Stock Market

Whether you are an investment professional managing billions of dollars or an individual investor with a small nest egg, TrimTabs Investing shows you how to beat the major stock market averages with less risk.

TrimTabs Investing argues that stock prices are primarily a function of liquidity�the amount of shares available for purchase and the amount of money available to buy them�rather than fundamental value. Finally, it outlines the building blocks of liquidity theory and explains how you can use them to predict the direction of the stock market.
