Summary

Where will the next generation of enormous, sustainable wealth come from? Not from financial manipulation, but from the same source it has always come from: from those who create the infrastructure upon which society can grow, productivity can increase, and life can improve. Right now, extraordinary opportunities exist in three of these areas: healthcare, infrastructure, and environmental products and services. InThree Paths to Profitable Investing,XShares founder Jeffrey Feldman shows how to use ETFs to cost-effectively invest in these areas at the best possible time to "catch the wave" and reap enormous profits: right now, just before these industries become commercially viable. Feldman and XShares Director of Business Development Andrew Hyman introduce a step-by-step approach to utilizing sector ETFs both as part of a long-term strategy that eliminates stock riskandas part of shorter-term hedging strategies. You donrs"t need an advisor to use these techniques: with a few clicks of the mouse, you can build a portfolio that accesses unprecedented innovation, reigniting your own personal prosperity and that of society at the same time.
