NEW: Investor Brief - yours FREE

InvestorPlace FLASH ALERT - Noted Pioneer of Investment Reporting Joins Us to Create Maria Bartiromo’s Investor Brief …as a valued friend of InvestorPlace, it’s yours free

Fellow Investor,

Without a doubt, this is an extraordinary time for investors. We’ve witnessed the greatest financial collapse in a generation, a global recession and unprecedented swings in the stock market.

Frankly, it’s because of this extraordinary investing environment that I’ve started Investor Brief, a free weekly e-letter designed to give you a “front row seat” to the most important goings-on on Wall Street.

Back when I started at CNBC in 1993, the world of Wall Street was a closed club — off-limits to reporters and small investors alike. In fact, when I became the first reporter to broadcast from the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, I took a lot of grief. I was told in no uncertain terms I didn’t belong there. Traders called the shots, and traders ruled the floor.

But I’m a determined person — and I kept coming back. I had a right to be there. And investors had — and still have — a right to know what’s really happening on Wall Street.

It was my primary goal then — and remains so today — to help empower you to make better, more informed decisions and find more success as an investor.

After all, no one else is really looking after your best interests, so you’d better do so yourself. That was true back then. And now — after the sub prime meltdown and Madoff scandal— it’s even more important today.

That’s why I’m dedicated to bringing you insights and analysis that can help you in your investing life through my work at CNBC. But I realize you’re busy — you might not have the time each day to watch. Plus there’s only so much I can squeeze into the show.

So I’ve just started Investor Brief, to help investors like you benefit from my one-on-one interviews with CEOs, expert analysts and policy makers. And to deliver everything I learn from the best minds in the business directly to your email inbox every Monday.

Best of all, Investor Brief will cost you nothing. Please see your special invitation compliments of my publisher below.

Maria

Welcome to my Investor Brief, a free weekly e-letter dedicated to the empowerment and success of individual investors, like you (Maria Bartiromo, anchor of CNBC’s Closing Bell and host of the nationally syndicated Wall Street Journal Report with Maria Bartiromo)
• Meet the real movers and shakers of the investing and political worlds, • Learn how to uncover money-making opportunities from today's headline• Get investing tips from the best in the business, • Gain a unique perspective on the events that actually move markets, • nd much, much more.  Best of all, it's free when you sign on here.

The New York Times describes Maria Bartiromo as “An insider” who does “more than her share.”

Sign Up TodayI describe Maria as one of the hardest working people on Wall Street. Perhaps you’ve seen her recent interviews with bank stock expert Meredith Whitney, or Bank of America’s Ken Lewis.

Back in April, she covered the G20 Summit in London, interviewing people like billionaire investor and currencies expert George Soros. More recently, she travelled to Moscow to interview Russian President Dmitri Medvedev.

About MariaWhen the news broke that AIG was scrambling for cash to stay afloat, she had AIG’s former CEO Hank Greenberg and then-current chief Ed Liddy on the program within days. And she interviewed Chrysler CEO Bob Nardelli the day Chrysler filed for bankruptcy.

From top business leaders to powerful politicians to top-tier investors, her Rolodex is stuffed with the names of men and women you should listen to.

After all, good investing is more than just “buying stocks.”

You need to understand what’s happening in the world — the news and the back-story. When someone like Russia's President Medvedev shares his views on oil prices or the U.S. dollar, you can bet Maria pays attention.

Investor Brief is your ticket to a world that most investors never get a glimpse of.

Maria will share her experiences. You’ll get her analysis, opinions and knowledge from the real experts in the economic, investing and political worlds. Plus she’ll share fun tidbits she hears behind-the-scenes.

I guarantee you’ll be both educated and entertained. And you’ll come away each week with a better understanding of how this crazy world of investing really runs.

Sign up for Investor Brief by going here now.

A look at the week ahead on Wall Street

You’ll get each new issue of Investor Brief sent direct to your e-mail box every Monday with an exclusive video from Maria giving you a fresh look at what you can expect that week on Wall Street.

She’ll tell you which economic reports will move the market that week and why. She’ll outline the week’s key events — from testimony in Congress to Federal Reserve meetings and beyond. And she’ll alert you to earnings reports that could boost, or drop, the stocks you own.

This video “look ahead” will arm you with facts you need to make sense of that week on Wall Street.

It’s thorough. It’s concise. It’s Maria talking with you one-on-one. And you can sign up now by following this link.

Strategies that will make you a better investor

One of the rewards of Maria’s job is being able to pick the brains of today’s most renowned “investing masters.”Click to Join Free

When you get to hang around with legends like Larry Summers, Bill Gates and Martin Feldstein, you can’t help but gain unprecedented insight into the inner workings of today’s market. So in each issue of Investor Brief, Maria will share the lessons she’s learned from the very best minds in the investment business.

For example, everybody knows the Federal Reserve sets interest rates, but few people ever give it more than a passing thought. Savvy investors don’t take the Fed’s statements at face value. They ferret out valuable intelligence — and make smarter investments — by watching a few key steps in the process the Fed uses to reach their decision.

Earnings season is vitally important as stocks move up and down, sometimes violently, as companies report profits. But hanging your hat on a single number is a simplistic — and often dangerous — way to make investment decisions. See how the pros dissect an earnings report.

Over the past 18 months, the volatility index, or “VIX,” has been one of the most talked about subjects on financial television. Should you care? Yes — learn why.

Those are just three quick examples of the sorts of things you’ll read about each week in Investor Brief.

Having watched Maria preparing for her first issue of Investor Brief, I can tell you that it's her passion to take what Wall Street’s top professionals teach her every day and pass it on to you in clear, jargon-free English that will make this e-letter a “must-read.”

What Banks Are Really Doing With Foreclosures
There have been a lot of accusations on the blogs and on the air that banks are holding on to REO (bank-owned) foreclosed properties because they don't want to put them on the market and push home prices ever lower.

In digging into this, I got a few interesting answers.
