The new paradigm for investing and building wealth in the twenty–first century. The Future for Investors reveals new strategies that take advantage of the dramatic changes and opportunities that will appear in world markets.

Jeremy Siegel, one of the world’s top investing experts, has taken a long, hard, and in–depth look at the market and the stocks that investors should acquire to build long–term wealth. His surprising finding is that the new technologies, expanding industries, and fast–growing countries that stockholders relentlessly seek in the market often lead to poor returns. In fact, growth itself can be an investment trap, luring investors into overpriced stocks and overly competitive industries.

The Future for Investors shatters conventional wisdom and provides a framework for picking stocks that will be long–term winners. While technological innovation spurs economic growth, it has not been kind to investors. Instead, companies that have marketed tried–and–true products for decades in slow–growth or even declining industries have superior returns to firms that develop “the bold and the new.“ Industry sectors many regard as dinosaurs—railroads and oil companies, for example—have actually beat the market.
