And quite frankly, I can’t blame them. After all, the S&P 500 dropped five straight months from November through March. That’s only happened seven times in the last 40 years. Not to mention consumer confidence just dropped to a 26-year low.

So when will this all end? Unfortunately, the hard truth is we’re smack dab in the middle of what Eric Roseman is calling “the world’s worst financial crisis since the 1930s.” And it doesn’t show any signs of letting up anytime soon.

But there is hope. There are still a few alternative investment strategies out there that can prepare you for the next market hiccup (or major gag).

You just have to look far beyond the mainstream markets – out there on the fringes where the sub-prime crisis, massive inflation, a falling dollar and banking failures are nothing more than a mild annoyance.

In this month’s issue of The Sovereign Individual, we’re introducing several of these strategies, including our lead story from Geoff Anandappa. This collectibles expert has created a fund that guarantees you’ll receive a 25% return after five years, while securing unlimited upside. Best of all, this investment is completely uncorrelated with the stock markets. Read on for a free excerpt…

Until Next Issue…
