Sometimes I find myself caught up in the little details of the market — things like the price-to-earnings ratio of the S&P 500, the volatility index, the 10-year Treasury yield — and I neglect to step back and look at the bigger picture. I’ve found myself doing this a lot lately, more specifically with individual stocks. If a trade goes wrong, I dive into the financials, charts and indicators to see what I missed… and see how I can improve going forward. —Sponsored Link— Buy These 5 Stocks To Cash In On The Marijuana Megatrend… Read More

Mark Twain is credited with the old axiom, “History doesn’t always repeat, but it can rhyme.” I’m a firm believer in that and right now, history is rhyming like a Dr. Seuss book. Recently, I listened to a research called hosted by RBC Capital Markets’ technical strategist Bob Dickey, an old hand in our industry. Near-term he was a bit cautious. However, his long-term view is bullish. One of my takeaways was Dickey’s long view that U.S. equity markets seem to run in 16- to 18-year secular cycles. So, the history nerd in me decided to put the old S&P… Read More

Recently, I listened to a research called hosted by RBC Capital Markets’ technical strategist Bob Dickey, an old hand in our industry. Near-term he was a bit cautious. However, his long-term view is bullish. One of my takeaways was Dickey’s long view that U.S. equity markets seem to run in 16- to 18-year secular cycles. So, the history nerd in me decided to put the old S&P 500 long chart to the test. Looking at the similar cycles (all of them effectively came out to 18 years) and applying the historical context to each period, Dickey is dead on. In modern history, it appears that 18 years of socio-political-economic challenge and upheaval is typically followed by 18 years of relative peace, economic growth and technological innovation. There’s no argument that we have been through 18 years of upheaval. Are we heading for a better stretch in which investors will enjoy an extended bull market? It’s impossible to know for sure. However, the tea leaves would… Read More

Sometimes you find a company you’re absolutely in love with… You’ve done your research, bought at a good price, you’re already up big, and then… BOOM!!! That company gets acquired by a larger player in the space. #-ad_banner-#That’s exactly what happened last week, when Aurora Cannabis (OTC: ACBFF), a major Canadian marijuana producer, said it was acquiring MedReleaf (OTC: MEDFF), my #1 pot stock recommendation, for $2.5 billion. I recommended this stock in the inaugural issue of Fast-Track Millionaire in early March. Since I do have some experience in this space, I was extraordinarily confident in the company and its market position. Here’s what I told my… Read More

As the market wraps up first quarter earnings season, results have been undeniably good. More than three-quarters (78%) of the companies in the S&P 500 have beaten earnings expectations, the highest percentage since FactSet began tracking it in 2008. Earnings growth for the index on a year-over-year basis is above 24%, making it the strongest quarter since 2010. #-ad_banner-#But why then isn’t the market booming? Stocks have rebounded from February lows, but sentiment has clearly shifted.

Stocks have rebounded from February lows, but sentiment has clearly shifted. Instead of the enthusiasm for growth and optimism for future earnings, investors seem hesitant to believe shares can go much higher. Is the market’s lethargy a sign of exhaustion and a long-awaited correction or is it just consolidation as earnings catch up? More importantly, how can you be ready for either scenario? Is Investor Enthusiasm Starting To Swing The Other Way? Despite the strength in earnings, the S&P 500 is up just 3% since earnings started coming out in early April. Investors have a reason to be hesitant in their enthusiasm. Forward valuations are at 16.0 times expected earnings for the next year, a 12% premium on the 10-year average of 14.3 times multiple. That elevated forward valuation is on expected earnings growth… Read More

Rex Tillerson has found himself in the news of late, and though I don’t do much politics over at my premium newsletter, Fast-Track Millionaire, I have to say I’m more than a little sorry to see the old Texan go. Historians will assess his tenure as secretary of state, and that’s fine – they should. But in my view, a decision the former CEO of ExxonMobil (NYSE: XOM) made a decade ago, long before he went to Washington, will be of far greater importance than his time in the diplomatic arena. —Sponsored Link— Vermont Research Firm… Read More
