The Four Stocks That Belong in Your Shopping Cart Right Now

This is the first back-to-school season where I’m not out there digging through every clothing aisle with my daughter or wrestling someone over a backpack for my youngest, who graduated from high school earlier this year.

I’m lucky to sit this one out as both of my kids head off to their respective colleges. And that means they’re now old enough to buy their own clothes, supplies, and gear.

But I certainly remember what it’s like preparing for the new school year, and my hat goes off to you for getting through it.

It’s also the time of year when retailers really start pushing their back-to-school sales even harder, according to the National Retail Federation. Retailers typically start their promotions in July, with some starting as early as June.

Now it still takes between three and four shopping trips over the span of a few weeks before kids are fully prepared for the first day of school…

And that’s exactly what these four back-to-school stocks are banking on…

Thank Michael Phelps for These Three Winning Stocks

Olympic men’s swimming ended yesterday. And unless Michael Phelps changes his mind again, this is the last time you’ll see him compete.

As the most decorated Olympian of all time, Phelps was already the richest swimmer in the world before the Rio games. His net worth is estimated to be around $55 million, with 98% of his earnings coming from endorsements alone.

So companies need to strike now to get his name and face on as many of their products as possible… before it’s too late.

But three companies in particular have already taken the lead. And thanks to Phelps’ 28 medals, they stand to bring in billions more in profits.

The first one may surprise you…

The “Only Way” to Beat the Stock Market is Wrong (and Always Will Be)

Let’s face it… the main goal for most traders is to beat the markets.

And there are thousands of books out there that promise to reveal the single method for beating the market. Some have even made it to the New York Times’ best seller list.

The problem is… they’re just not accurate.

Truthfully, there’s no ONE way to beat the stock market.

And even if you’ve had some luck following “that one” tactic, it’s just not a winning strategy to use in the long run. Actually, you risk losing profits you’ve made so far and your immediate (and future) capital.

So forget those 100 “only ways” you’ve seen to beat the markets.

This three-fold approach will tell you the direction a stock is heading, how much money you can make, and how long you have to capture those profits.

It’s a solid strategy no matter how experienced you are  – and one that works in any market environment.

Now let’s get to it…

The One Trade I’d Marry This Second

Historically, the S&P 500 has rallied higher in 19 of the last 22 election years. In fact, since 1928, negative returns were posted in just four of the election years.

Now the S&P 500 has already hit 22 new-week highs without new lows. And yesterday, it reached all-new record highs – up 6.9% so far this year.

So does this mean it’s time to throw all your chips on the table?

Not at all…

We don’t know what next week will bring us – and if this upward movement will last.

But I’ve got a very special strategy you can use that’s perfect for this market environment.  Most people have never even heard of it…. and we’ve never talked about it before.

It lets you play expensive stocks without the expensive costs.

It minimizes your risk in case the markets start falling.

It even offers the potential to collect unlimited profits.

So let’s get started…

How to Save Your Cash when the Stock Market Works Against You

You might have some options in your portfolio expiring at 3pm EST today that haven’t exactly been moving in your favor.

The question is… should you have held onto these trades or gotten out of them early?

This is one of the most challenging aspects of options trading that you can face – especially if you’re just getting started.

While it can sometimes seem as though there’s nothing you can do to save a losing trade, exiting your position early versus letting the option expire can decide between a 10% loss and a 100% loss (or worse).

And that’s why I want to help you get your timing down pat before we start a brand new week of trading.

So I’m going to tell you when it’s time to hold on to a losing trade and when it’s time to jump out early…

The Rio Summer Games Could Send This Stock Soaring by August 21st – Here’s What to Watch

The 2016 Rio Summer Olympic games are little more than a week away, kicking off on August 5th.

Last time around, with the 2012 London Summer Olympics, many in North America had trouble watching because of the time difference. But with Rio two hours ahead of the U.S. East Coast, this time around we’re going to have even better coverage of the games.

Even better… NBC is planning on making every event available for live streaming via your TV, tablet, and smartphone. And that means that we’ll have much more time to glue ourselves to the games.

But as fans get ready to strap on their soda guzzler helmets, there’s one stock you should be watching closely…

This company generated nearly $41.3 billion off the back of the 2012 Winter Olympics in Sochi, taking in 80% of its profits from ad space sales.

Its stock is trading at all-time highs, providing an annual return of 22% over the last five years, and it beat its expected earnings this morning.

And with its incredible new technology, this stock could jump even higher by the closing ceremony on August 21st…

Meet Gold’s Little Brother… and Two Ways He Can Make You Money

The aftermath of Brexit created an absolutely beautiful “blue light special” for equities. And even gold – specifically SPDR Gold Shares (NYSE: GLD) – moved higher, peaking around July 8th at $130.52.

Amid all the excitement, though, you probably didn’t notice gold’s “little brother.”

But you should have…

This often-forgotten commodity correlates pretty well with gold and lasted one week longer, peaking at $19.39 on July 13th.

And you still have a chance to make a profit.

In fact, here are two different ways you can do so…

As you may recall from Wednesday, I said that I wouldn’t be surpised if we prices move higher this week. I also said to keep your eyes on three different events this week that had the potential to drive the markets higher or lower.

And so far, the news has been good…

We haven’t gotten any bad earnings surprises from the big banks yet, jobless claims are holding at nearly a 43-year low, and this week’s Bloomberg Consumer Confidence Index report revealed that consumer confidence in the U.S. is the highest it’s been since October 2015.

Now I already showed you how to “use a rectangle” to track the current price trend in the stock market trend.

But I also mentioned that there are additional patterns you may find in the charts – three, in particular…

So today, I’m going to show you exactly what they are –

And how they’ll signal when it’s time to make money…

The bulls continue to dominate, with the S&P 500 hitting a record high of 2,152.14, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) setting a new closing high of 18,347.67, and the NASDAQ closing at 5,022.82 – it’s highest since late December 2015.

But three upcoming events this week could send the markets up or down – dramatically.

So I’m going to show you a unique way to spot a potential shift in the current bullish trend… using shapes.

And by the time you’re done reading, you’ll know each one of the three upcoming catalysts and how to pinpoint trading opportunities – no matter which way the markets move.
