Washington, DC (PRWEB) January 7, 2009

Americas Watchdog's Wall Street Fraud Watchdog has been assisting victims of the auction rate securities con job, and failed or frozen cash equivalents for nearly a year. According to the group, "if you have Auction rate securities, or cash equivalent type of investments, you need to make a move now, while there are still banks, investment bankers or stock brokerage firms left to file an arbitration claim against. We are also warning all US stock market investors to keep a very vigilant eye on your statement, or the statements of relatives, who are senior citizens for possible signs of stock broker/bank investment advisor stock churning." If an investor still holds auction rate securities, Schwab Yield Plus, TD Ameritrade Reserve Yield Plus, any other type of failed or frozen cash equivalent they can call the Wall Street Fraud Watchdog anytime at 866-714-6466 or visit their web site at Http://WallStreetFraudWatchdog.Com for help and assistance.

According to the Wall Street Fraud Watchdog, "In 2009 we will see the US and the global economies get much worse. We are advising all US investors to either go to cash, precious metals or something 100% safe. US residential real estate will decline an additional 10% minimum, with California losing an additional 15%+. US Investment or commercial real estate will get crushed, so we are advising to get out of and steer clear of REIT's, and mutual funds that are weighted toward financial's, retail, home building or any other stock sector that is not recession, or depression proof." The group is also strongly advising any investor that is holding US tax free municipals to get out, unless your stock broker or bank investment advisor will put in writing the tax free Muni is 100% safe ("trust us----they will not put it in writing"). The Wall Street Fraud Watchdog is predicting that there will be a record number of US tax free Muni Bond failures in 2009.

2009 Must Do's For All US & International Investors-Individuals With A 401-k':

•      Go to cash or an investment that is 100% safe. A treasury bill might be safer than the stock market in 2009. Do not trust the used car stock broker pitch about a "great investment", unless you independently research it yourself.

         * If your stock broker or bank investment advisor has a 100% safe investment or cash equivalent for you, have he/she put in writing it is 100% safe before you invest in it.
     * Avoid, or get out of mutual funds that are 25% or more weighted towards sectors that include financial's, retail, auto, home building, REITS, commercial real estate, pharmaceuticals, or health care. "We are going to 10% unemployment, consumers will stay on the sidelines, and a Nancy Pelosi printing press economy, with tax increases for the rich will not fix the fundamental issues with the US, or global economies. In the last 15 years tens of millions of US consumers have become credit junkies. Wall Street, Many US Banks, Western European banks all did the very same thing. In essence the US & global economies thought they were at a free drink happy hour, for the last 15 years. In 2009 the bar tab comes due. It will not be pretty."

2009 Don'ts For All US & International Investors-Individuals With A 401-K
     * Don't get suckered in by a stock broker or bank investment advisors pitch about something to good to be true (unless they put in writing the investment is 100% safe).
        * Do not have more that $100,000 ($200,000 for married couples) in any one US bank.
     * Do not get suckered into a House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, "everything is going to be ok, because we will print our way out of this disaster. A Federal Reserve/Congressional printing press mind set will give us inflation, that could literally bankrupt the US."
     * Do not purchase a home in the early part of 2009, that will be worth at least 10% less by the end of 2009. "We expect the pay option adjustable rate mortgages, ALT-A mortgages & HELOC/second mortgages to detonate in 2009. This will make the sub prime mess look like a cake walk."

Possible Game Global Economic Game Changers in 2009:
        * Israel or the United States fail to take out Iran's capability of building an atomic bomb. The net result a nuclear arms race in the Middle East, pitting Shiite against Sunni ( Iran & the splintered Southern half of Iraq against Saudi Arabia, Syria, Egypt, Kuwait and the Gulf Kingdoms) The result: Oil goes back to $100+ per barrel. (not good for the current global economic disaster)
     * India and Pakistan go to war. Both have nuclear weapons. Both nations take hate of each other to world class levels.
