And just like that… investors are getting nervous again. High-flying stocks such as Disney and PayPal disappointed on earnings and pulled the market down last week. Whether the volatility lasts or not, it’s a good reminder that you should always have a plan B when it comes to investing. In today’s video, Ted and Clint give you six strategies to hedge against a market correction so that you can stay ahead no matter what.
Is the stock market finally turning a corner? After a directionless summer and fall, it looks like last Friday’s better-than-expected jobs report could help kick off the real recovery we’ve all been waiting for. And the good news doesn’t end there. Supply shortages are easing up. COVID-19 cases are on the decline. In other words, big changes could be ahead. In today’s Your Money Matters, Ted Bauman and Clint Lee show where to find the short-term opportunities as it all unfolds. Watch today’s video to find out what two ETFs are at the top of their list.
U.S. supply chains are gridlocked. Prices are rising on short supplies. Warnings abound of delays in Black Friday and Christmas deliveries. “Get your orders in or you won’t get your stuff until 2022!” is the mantra from retailers to wholesalers to factories. At the heart of it all: massive container ships marooned outside American ports. Ignore all the politically expedient finger-pointing. In today’s video, Ted explains that the fragile economics of one of America’s most important industries put us in this position. And he points out that this jolting experience is certain to create a massive demand in an emerging sector that’s starting to show its stock market muscle. Investing in those companies now puts you on the right side of the supply chain solution!
Last week, the GDP report showed the sharpest slowdown since the recovery. It has nothing to do with demand. The problem is supply. Companies aren’t delivering due to shipping, shortage in materials and, more importantly for our conversation today … labor. Because that’s creating a massive boom in robotics and automation as businesses respond to this labor crunch. In today’s Your Money Matters, Ted Bauman and Clint Lee show just how quickly this industry is growing and two different ways to play it. You’ll also find out what Ted believes is “one of the greatest hidden opportunities in the market today.”
Markets aren’t a rollercoaster… they’re a trampoline! Up one day, down the next (until someone breaks a leg). You can usually predict what kind of day it’ll be based on the headlines. What’s the Fed up to? How about the politicians? The Chinese? What do the latest economic numbers tell us? Ted looks at today’s bad GDP numbers … and explains why they have growth stock investors excited. Time to get back into growth? Until next week…
