Epilogue

“When others are anxious, you, who have read this book, will already be seizing the opportunity.”

Jang Woo-seok, CEO of "Crazy About US Stocks," a first-generation US stock mentor in Korea, presents a data-proven strategy for excess returns.

1.
Why the S&P 500 now?
If you had put 10 million won in a bank deposit 10 years ago, you would only have 11.8 million won now.
However, if the same amount of money had been invested in Apple, it would have grown to about 150 million won, and if it had been invested in Nvidia, it would have grown to a whopping 2.4 billion won.
The S&P 500 is a stage for companies that have changed the world, such as Tesla, Apple, Microsoft, and Google, and is an index that constantly purifies itself, allowing only the strong to survive.
Despite short-term adjustments, it has shown a steady upward trend over the long term, making it a must-own global asset class for Korean investors.

2.
How to Find Individual Companies That Beat the Market
Simply following an index does not guarantee excess returns.
Based on 20 years of research, the author presents a method for identifying companies with a "money-making constitution" through EDGAR disclosure analysis and a checklist of ROE, operating profit margin, and debt ratio.
“Not everyone who is included in the S&P 500 is successful.
Some companies soar, while others fall.
“Where does the difference come from?”
This book clearly explains the answer through data-driven analysis.

3.
Portfolio Design: The Investor's Real Weapon
Investing doesn't end with stock selection.
Investors must create the optimal portfolio tailored to their preferences through sector rebalancing according to economic cycles, adjusting the weighting of growth and value stocks, and combining ETFs, indexes, and individual stocks.
Beginners can secure safety through diversification, while experienced investors can enjoy the thrill of concentrated investment.
This book provides practical blueprints that cover both scenarios.

4. Growth sectors you can't afford to miss in the AI ​​era
AI chips, cloud computing, cybersecurity, bio and healthcare, eco-friendly energy, fintech…
Here are the megatrends that will dominate the market over the next 10 years.
In particular, AI value chain analysis, which identifies next-generation companies like Nvidia that will drive explosive growth, will be a powerful weapon for investors.
We provide specific guidance on the path to excess returns that only investors who seize the opportunity can experience, such as Palantir's +1,830% and Tesla's 8-fold increase in one year.

5.
A practical manual, an investment guide you can follow right now.
