Conversely, the greatest investment returns in history have been made by betting against the crowd during extreme investor sentiment. But how do we know when the market has reached an opportunistic inflection point? Keith Richards' webinar will provide a bevy of contrarian analysis tools designed to help you identify an overbought and euphoric market. These same tools can help you profit by buying into an oversold market that has reached its capitulation stage.

As one of the few portfolio managers to have identified and prepared for the current bear market before it occurred, I will present my proven process to identify and trade during the three stages of a bear market. Bull. Bear. Bottom. Then bounce.
