Description "That is not how you invest." Learn to connect market signals with real returns. A single, all-around investment course that can change your life. A must-read for working professionals investing in stocks, and one of the most practical stock investment guides available — from the author of My Salary Independence Project and My Investing Starts at 4 A.M. The 'legend of retail investors,' Yumokmin, who caused a sensation by publicly verifying an account history showing cumulative profits of 30 billion won, is back with a brand-new book. The author began investing seriously in stocks in 2015 and, within just three years, achieved cumulative profits of 3 billion won by 2017. My Salary Independence Project captured the vivid story of how he managed to achieve financial independence from his salary while working 12-hour days. Upon its release in 2019, the book quickly became a bestseller and has since established itself as required reading for working professionals starting out in investing. In the three years following his first book, as he diversified his investment methods and portfolio, his assets grew to surpass 30 billion won. His second book, My Investing Starts at 4 A.M., published in 2022, covered swing trading, unlisted stocks, funds, and mezzanine investments, chronicling his evolution into the next stage as an investor — and it too was warmly received by readers. Following the combined sales of 200,000 copies for his first two books, Yumokmin's Investment Fundamentals is his third book — the definitive investment guide into which he has poured all his experience, as he has transitioned from investor to entrepreneur. Drawing on the experience and data he has accumulated over the years, the author founded Signal Report Inc., an investment education startup designed to help individual investors truly learn how to invest. Through 'Yumokmin's Signal Report,' he provides daily updates on domestic and international investment information every morning. The channel that served as the starting point for this book has ranked No. 1 in sales on Naver Premium Content for two consecutive years. "Honestly, I began writing this book out of necessity while running Signal Report. Signal Report started as an advanced-level service for a small group of subscribers, but when we launched our public service in April 2022, we saw a much higher number of beginner sign-ups than expected — which was a good thing. The problem was that beginners had a hard time keeping up with the massive amount of content provided every day. Reflecting on why I started this business in the first place, I decided I needed to organize what I had learned about materials, charts, trading volume, and market conditions into something as clear and approachable as possible for these readers. Investing requires lifelong learning, but I wanted to help make sure that learning starts in the right direction." "Prepare for the Great Shift of 2025" The golden window to prepare for the coming tech stock renaissance of 2025 From the bull market of 2020 to the post-pandemic downturn, Korean retail investors have ridden a rollercoaster of market conditions and come to realize that consistent, solid returns require real study. Yumokmin's Investment Fundamentals answers that exact need. In his previous books, the author consistently argued against chasing quick techniques and instead advocated for lifelong learning. Now, he states firmly that now is the time to boldly invest time and effort into studying stocks, in preparation for the coming bull market and the 2025 'American tech stock renaissance.' "What would happen if everyone could buy exactly what they wanted, in the amount they wanted, at the price they wanted? Inflation concerns would ease. That's the kind of country people would want to live in — and the kind of country where things get made. The United States is preparing for exactly this kind of era. The IRA, the CHIPS Act, and other policies all point toward 2025. This is when the 'American tech stock renaissance' will unfold. At its core will be robotics, semiconductors, and artificial intelligence — American-made robots powered by American AI, running on semiconductors made in America. In response, China is preparing its own 'Made in China 2025' initiative. So we need to prepare our investments for the era ahead, while also being ready for the economic downturn expected in the first half of 2024. Even when investing in stocks, at some point you need to identify assets that can help limit downside risk during a market slump. Anyone who experienced January through March of 2020 as an investor will know how to prepare. With diligent preparation, a diversified investment port...
