You’re looking at a major shift in the stock market come Monday.
It’ll happen because most investors will make a decision that they think is best for their portfolios.
But it’s not.
In fact, it could be the single worst mistake they’ll make this entire year – and could cost them seven months of profits.
I don’t want that to happen to you.
In 10 days, the final round of the French Presidential election will take place between Emmanuel Macron and Marine Le Pen.
Now the markets are clearly betting on a Macron win.
But no matter the outcome, this election could be huge for your portfolio…
If you play it right.
When we spoke on Wednesday, I mentioned that I’d show you the best way to play Apple in light of its upcoming earnings announcement on May 2.
What I didn’t tell you, though, is that your best profit opportunity’s actually got nothing to do with earnings at all.
In fact, you could make the most on Apple by waiting until this date…
The Dow took a hit yesterday, dropping 100 points, after Goldman Sachs (GS) missed earnings expectations. Now this came as a major surprise to analysts and Wall Street – but more importantly, to anyone sitting and waiting to take profits on a seemingly easy trading opportunity.
And that’s exactly what I want to talk to you about…
The biggest threat to your portfolio during earnings is an unexpected result – like GS yesterday.
But the solution is actually quite simple.
And it has the power to deliver unlimited profits – on each and every trade…
When we spoke last weekend, I mentioned that earnings – not the poor jobs report – would be the number one driver of volatility in the financial sector.
Now Citigroup, JPMorgan, and Wells Fargo just kicked off earnings for the big banks by beating expectations.
But as I told CNBC yesterday, here’s why you should stay away from one of them…
On Monday, Tesla (TSLA) hit its 52-week high – just one week after becoming the most valuable automaker in America.
It’s not the only one, though. There are actually 126 stocks trading at or near all-time highs.
But don’t worry about figuring out which ones to add to your portfolio right now…
All of the media heads are talking about Tesla right now and how it beat General Motors as the largest automaker in America, right after taking over Ford’s number two spot.
But while they’re figuring out how Elon Musk did it, I want to talk to you about something much more important – how to profit.
And I’ve got the perfect way for you to cash in on the new king of the auto industry…
I came across an article today about how the average mutual fund investor isn’t making any money in the stock market (according to a recent study by the Center for Retirement Research). What’s worse is that they’re actually losing money – despite record highs.
The author concluded by making one point: “you simply can’t time the markets.”
But he couldn’t be more wrong. In fact, he’s wrong on multiple levels.
Not only can you time the markets – you can cash in on any stock move without even looking at your computer or calling your broker.
