Reporting From Freedom Fest Edition # 1:
Steve Forbes Reveals the $2 Trillion Secret Dear Investor’s Daily Edge Reader, At Investor’s Daily Edge we’re constantly looking for new information… new strategies… the edge you need to make consistent profits in the market. That’s why we’ve decided to attend FreedomFest 2008, hosted by Mark Skousen in Las Vegas Nevada. What is FreedomFest? If you ask Mark, he’ll tell you it’s a gathering of free minds. Really, it’s a gathering of Libertarian minds, tempered with alternative viewpoints on a variety of economic topics. Investor’s Daily Edge doesn’t endorse any specific political party. We encourage everyone to have their own political points of view. But we believe that what goes on in the political world can have a huge impact on the economy and the stock market in general. As our regular readers know, our editors range from being liberal to conservative. FreedomFest boasts a distinguished panel of speakers ranging from economist Mark Skousen, entrepreneur Steve Forbes, Republican Ron Paul, and the CEOs of Whole Foods and Overstock.com, John Mackey and Patrick Byrne respectively. To pass up the wealth of knowledge these minds have would be a serious disservice to you. With that said… The Biggest Risk Investors Face Isn’t What You Think So far today I heard resource guru Peter Schiff talk about ‘the giant pool of deadbeats’. He’s talking about subprime collateralized debt obligations. Why did he mention it? He’s talking about how many of the big picture risks aren’t the biggest risks that face investors. Instead, it’s the investors themselves. Think about it. People put their money into high yielding money market accounts because of the yields. But in the end many of those money market accounts had subprime backing. Result? Accounts were frozen and some investors were unable to pull their money back out when they wanted it. Free-Market economist Mark Skousen spoke right after Peter. What he said was that Obama would become president because the current administration made so many mistakes that the best of the Republican Party wouldn’t be able to overcome them. Mark predicted that an Obama presidency would bring higher taxes. And it’s going to affect corporations'/consumer spending, the rich... everybody really. And people need to know how to protect their assets and make sure they aren’t paying more taxes than they should. The Forbes Solution Later on in the day I had the pleasure of listening to Steve Forbes talk passionately about the problems facing America. One thing he mentioned was about how the media tells you that there is a not enough liquidity, which is causing a lot of economic problems today. But Steve pointed out that American corporations are sitting on amazing cash reserves – two trillion to be exact. So why aren’t they spending it? It’s because they are afraid to. But if we strengthened the dollar and started fixing some of our problems, we would see this cash rush into the market and see another huge spurt of economic growth.
As an investor this is extremely important because it signals that even with all the problems facing the economy, many companies are in extremely strong financial positions. That means you should hunt for those cash rich companies – especially if they’ve been beaten down – and start putting your money into them. When the market rebounds, they will be one of the first to move higher. The best part is that one of the things we do at IDE is look for the safest, most stable, cash-rich companies on the market today. In fact, your Tuesday editor Andrew Gordon found one company that is readying a $606 million cash payment. Just check out this urgent report here to learn more about them. More to Come In the days ahead, I’m going to let you know what I’ve seen at the conference. I’m going to share with you the most important and interesting topics spoken about. And I even plan on interviewing various presenters here so that you can gain a deeper understanding of their various economic positions. Stay free, Charles Delvalle P.S.

Corporations in America have never been sitting on as much cash as they are today. And we’ve found one with $4.81 billion, who is preparing to give shareholders a $606 million payout.
