S3E33 - John Duffy - Using technical analysis to earn 14% per year

Listen Later

My next guest served in the US Navy then went on to work for IBM, and thereafter climbed the ranks in multiple large corporations until he retired as SVP at Cigna Insurance. He talks about the pain of going through the dotcom bubble between 2000 and 2002 as well as the housing crash in 2008 and that he didn’t fully recover until 2014. Overall, his portfolio was down for 14 years. The question is, how does an investor protect against this? The answer is a system he put together that allows investors to protect against downside risk. In this episode, he talks about how his system and strategy work and what stocks he invests in today. Please welcome John Duffy.
