[http://www.jasonapollovoss.com/web/ Jason Apollo Voss] (born 13 February, 1970) is the author of the book, [http://www.jasonapollovoss.com/web/book/ The Intuitive Investor: a Radical Guide for Manifesting Wealth], that challenges many conventional perceptions about investing and financial decisions, while offering a plan for readers to build proven skills that enable them to leverage “gut feelings” for better investing. The Intuitive Investor: a Radical Guide for Manifesting Wealth was named by Foreword Reviews as a “[http://www.bookoftheyearawards.com/books/9781590792063/ Book of the Year 2010” finalist], business and economics category.

In his book Voss states, “One of the most important of all investment secrets is that there is no such thing as a future fact.” The Intuitive Investor posits that what is missing from the traditional investor’s thought process is the involvement of the right-brain’s creative and feeling powers. To support his position, Voss analyzes the use of key right-brain functions to address crucial issues faced by the investor: understanding potential risks and market bottoms, properly evaluating an investment target, and recognizing the “mood” of financial markets.

Mr. Voss has used the skills outlined in his book to make a number of correct market predictions, including his October 21, 2004 epiphany in which he realized there was going to be a global recession, and which led to his retirement August 19, 2005; his calling of the March 9, 2009 market low [http://www.jasonapollovoss.com/web/2009/03/12/bottomed-out/ several days after the fact], and his August 7, 2009 post, [http://www.jasonapollovoss.com/web/2009/08/07/investing-in-the-stock-market-makes-sense-part-3/ Investing in the stock market makes sense], that accurately stated that the 2008-2009 recession was over.
