It’s easy to get distracted by the political turmoil and the swelling trade wars, but economists are picking up on signals that could severely impact your future investments.
The housing market may not be dominating the news network right now, but it should be.
We all know that 2018 has come with a lot of volatility. And last week, we saw one of the worst weeks the market has had in a while.
Also, It doesn’t help that every so-called financial expert has a different opinion about what will happen next, what you should do, and where you should put your money. And the worst part is, they don’t even care about your bottom dollar at the end of the day – they care about their ratings.
The thing is though, all that noise won’t bring you profits…
After a pretty wild start to the week, all of the major market indices are trading higher as I’m writing.
But despite the gains we’ve seen over the past couple days, I keep seeing a lot of “dire warnings” about a looming recession from the talking heads on the financial news networks.

You’ve heard the that saying one man’s junk is another man’s treasure…
Well this couldn’t be truer when it comes to the markets, too. One industry’s mistake is another industry’s opportunity.
You see, Facebook, Inc. (FB) is in hot water – and all eyes remain on the social media giant as they try to handle the latest news breaking scandal.
But it looks like Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are benefiting from the Facebook ordeal, opening a brand-new set of opportunities.
Facebook, Inc. (FB) suffered its largest one-day decline (by percentage points) in five years and was the primary catalyst given for the steep drop in the markets yesterday. The stock closed 6.8% lower as it was reported that Cambridge Analytica (a political analysis firm) collected and stored data from 50 million users’ accounts without permission.
Now this has got the financial news networks driving investor fears about own tech stocks through the roof. And unfortunately, when these kinds of things happen, the question then becomes whether or not you should dump everything you own.
But my direction to you is the same as it always has been…
Don’t get caught up in the noise and forced commentary of the talking heads who sensationalize to get their ratings – and their revenue – up.
Plus, when a stock is really headed to Wall Street purgatory, we’ll sound the alarm… You see, my colleague Shah Gilani is the only person who can identify which stocks have an almost 100% chance of working in your favor.
But with this special type of trade, you can bank profits as high as these stocks plummet. The odds are heavily stacked in your favor, even when the market is fierce, unstable, and completely unpredictable. Click here to see how.
And in terms of dumping your tech stocks – especially FB – is the worst thing you could do to your portfolio right now.
The number one problem during earnings season is knowing where a stock will move after their earnings come out.
And that can make it really easy to to miss out on profits – or even lose your money entirely.
But you can exploit any company every earnings season – good or bad.
As you already know (it’s impossible to miss), President Trump’s former campaign manager, Paul Manafort, and his business partner, Rick Gates, were indicted on charges ranging from hiding overseas payments to conspiracy to defraud the U.S. On top of that, another former foreign policy adviser, George Papadopoulos, pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI.
Now all the media pundits want you to believe that these are the single most important events of the decade – even bigger than Watergate – and that they could put an end to this historical stock market rally.
And while I agree that the poolitical impact from these events could be huge, the talking heads couldn’t be more wrong about the effect these “bombshells” will have on the markets.
This morning, we talked about why the financial sector is dominating third-quarter earnings season. In fact, bank stocks broke new highs today after the opening bell. But that doesn’t mean the rally is just getting started – quite the opposite, in fact.
And in my exclusive interview with CNBC, I’ll tell you exactly why…
Click to watch…
The mainstream media is focusing on the jobs report, which was released earlier today. But, while this report can give you a general idea of the state of the markets, the numbers are skewed (I’ll tell you why in a moment).
So instead of focusing on a flawed report that doesn’t give you the full picture, the best thing to do is to look at the “Four Corners.”
If Alice Kramden, of the old TV series, “The Honeymooners,” were to ask her husband, Ralph, where the stock market’s heading next, he’d probably yell “to the moon, Alice!”
This is basically what all of the financial news networks are doing right now. That’s why you keep seeing and hearing all of the pundits say that there’s no end in sight for this bull rally.
Now I disagree (we’ll talk about why in a minute).
But the bottom line is…
It’s inevitable that this rally will continue without at least a pullback or correction of some kind.
And when that happens, this is where you’ll want to move your cash…
