Your Investing Education Is Our Mission
Tuesday, October 31, 2023, 9:15 am - 9:45 am
Focus: STRATEGIES
Since 1978 the American Association of Individual Investors (AAII) has been striving to assist individuals in becoming effective managers of their own assets through programs of education, information, and research. AAII was founded on the principle that, with sufficient knowledge, time, and interest, individual investors can outperform the market and the so-called market big boysmutual funds, hedge funds, and high-frequency traders. As an independent, non-profit organization, AAII provides members with the information and tools to select and manage investment portfolios to help them achieve their financial goals.
Wealth Building Strategies
Tuesday, October 31, 2023, 10:00 am - 11:00 am
Focus: TRADING
Building wealth through investing is possible, but to be successful an investor has to have effective strategies. In this presentation, AAII Investment strategist Raymond A Rondeau will cover a number of effective trading and investment strategies for today's market environment that any investor can use either in their entirety or in conjunction with their current approach to enhance returns. Accompanying each strategy will be evidence backed research and performance results to support the viability of each approach. Lastly, Ray will feature a unique mutual fund/ETF strategy that exploits a market inefficiency by transacting only twice a year and that has outperformed the S&P 500 with half the risk.
Understanding How to Interpret and Use Investor Sentiment
Tuesday, October 31, 2023, 11:15 am - 11:45 am
Focus: MARKETS
Sentiment describes the opinions, emotions or views of a group of people. In investing, sentiment can be a powerful determinant of security prices, especially in the short run. Here, emotions-whether rational or irrational-can drive market prices. If you could forecast changes in sentiment, you should have an advantage in determining changes in the market. AAII's Investor Sentiment Survey offers insight into the opinions of individual investors by asking them their thoughts on where the market is heading in the next six months and has been doing so since 1987.
The Three Pillars for Successful Dividend Investing
Tuesday, October 31, 2023, 12:00 pm - 12:45 pm
Focus: DIVIDEND
Since 1926, dividends have accounted for more than 40% of the return realized by investing in large-cap stocks. But how do you become a successful dividend investor? AAII's Dividend Investing (DI) newsletter seeks stocks that have the potential to rise in price and make larger dividend payments in the future-a total-return strategy. The Dividend Investing approach focuses on three pillars for dividend investment decisions to achieve these goals. Our three pillars of dividend investing are a firm's growth trends, financial strength/quality, and valuation, which your AAII presenter will explain in detail.
Combining Value, Momentum, and Quality
Tuesday, October 31, 2023, 1:00 pm - 1:45 pm
Focus: MARKETS
One of the significant advantages individual investors have is being able to follow truly active strategies, such as the approach behind VMQ Stocks. VMQ is short for value, momentum, and quality. This strategy uses academic and industry research on what has worked over the long term to build a portfolio that individual investors can follow. The VMQ Stocks approach uses two of the best-performing investment factors-value and momentum-while using quality to weed out the junkiest stocks.
Sustainable Growth Investing
Tuesday, October 31, 2023, 2:00 pm - 2:45 pm
Focus: STOCKS
Many investors are drawn toward hot technology stocks and last year's winners. The problem is that looking at historical growth or companies with the highest growth can often be a loser's game for investors. But what if traditional growth strategies had it wrong? Investing in companies with the highest levels of growth exposes portfolios to reversion to the mean, whereby the prices of high-growth stocks plummet once their growth rates start to slow down. AAII's Growth Investing strategy looks to invest in growth stocks the right way.
