The Unprecedented Money-Making Potential of This New Technical Pattern

While everyone’s been talking about the Dow’s third major milestone this year – breaking the 24,000 mark – I’m focusing on something else…

You see, there’s a new technical pattern forming in a couple of department store stocks. And if you catch it at the right time, you can make a lot of money.

But timing is everything because this pattern is a tricky one…

So make sure your kids aren’t looking over your shoulder as you read – especially if you’re the squeamish type – because I’m about to show you a new technical pattern with a not-so-happy name.

Let’s examine the profit potential of this macabre-sounding pattern that may be taking place on a couple of department store stocks


What You Can Expect from the Markets This Holiday Season

Every year around this time, I get hundreds of emails from friends, former students, and subscribers asking me the same question: what are the markets going to do this holiday season?

Many traders are understandably worried. Volume and liquidity can both drop precipitously during holiday-shortened trading weeks as Wall Streeters take time off to be with their families.

It’s no wonder they want to have an idea of what’s going to happen ahead of time.

And that’s just what I’m going to show you today…


This “Fail Proof” Pattern Just Started – Here’s How to Profit

We all know the old adage: “sell in May and go away.”

All this means is that the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) has returned an average of 0.3% between May 1 and October 31, and 7.5% between November 1 and April 30.

And it’s done this without fail, for 67 years.

That means, typically, most investors and traders are gearing up for a new bullish pattern (since that is how the markets usually behave).

But this wasn’t like any year we’ve ever seen before.

There was little to no pullback in the markets – instead they skyrocketed to unprecedented highs, with the DJIA even hitting 23,000.

Now everyone is wondering what to do with their money next.

And these are best the two time-tested strategies to use


This is How You Profit on the U.S. Dollar – No Matter What

A few weeks back, I predicted that the U.S. dollar would become even more volatile heading into September.

And that’s exactly what’s happening.

In fact, it fell again this morning for the sixth month in a row – the longest declining streak in 14 years.

Now this is extremely important because the price of the dollar can affect anything from the price you pay for a gallon of milk to the value of your 401(k).

But it doesn’t have to hurt you…

All you need to know is how to profit – no matter where it goes from here.


Eight Stocks You’ll Need to Protect Your Portfolio from North Korea

Kim Jong-Un may think he’s got the world markets in chaos right now, thanks to the latest missile test over Japanese airspace…

But he’s wrong.

In fact, the Dow and Nasdaq are back in the green as of the time of writing, with the S&P 500 only less than 1% away from doing the same.

That’s why dumping your stocks based on world news events is the fastest – and easiest way – of putting your retirement savings at risk.

Instead, you should be buying stocks.

And here’s a list of the eight stocks you’ll need in your portfolio right now…


Two Stock Charts You Need Before Placing Your Next Trade

You raised an interesting issue this week: are stock charts really required to be a successful trader… or are they just a waste of your time.

Here’s the deal…

While there are some charts out there that look fancy – they don’t actually provide any useful information that you can use to time your trades.

But there are others that do – and are crucial in timing your entries and exits.  

Here are the only two charts you really need


On Tuesday, This Industry Will Decide the Fate of the Stock Market

Two days ago, during her semi-annual address, Fed Chair Janet Yellen told Congress that they see a tapering off of interest rate hikes for the year. Right after the news broke, the Dow gapped up to its all-time intraday high.

The question becomes whether the markets have run too high too fast – and if they have the stamina to sustain these prices.

Now many of the financial media pundits are making their own predictions…

But ultimately, only one industry will decide the fate of the markets.

And they decide on Tuesday.


What “the FANGs” Predict is Next for Tech Stocks

Two weeks ago, the technology sector experienced its first significant one-day selloff – and the financial news networks went crazy. Some of the so-called financial experts even said it’s time to get rid of all tech stocks in your portfolio.

But on Tuesday, the sector rallied more than 1%, driving the Dow and S&P 500 to new record highs. And this time, all of those “experts” were saying it’s now the perfect opportunity to buy tech stocks.

Now these are the type of contradictions in the financial press that can be both confusing – and detrimental – to your portfolio.

So forget their media chatter and speculation…

Here’s what the leaders of the pack – “the FANGs” – are predicting…
