Inside the Mailbag: Your Big Forecasts for 2018

Here at Banyan Hill Publishing, we have an “end of the year” tradition: Our editors like to take this time to make their big stock market predictions.

As 2017 comes to a close, my suitcase is calling to me. See, at the end of every year, I like to skip town for a little R&R after celebrating the holidays.

It’s become sort of a tradition with me. (This year, it’s Peru.)

I’m sure you have some of your own unique holiday traditions as well. Maybe it’s going around your street caroling, taking a night to see the Nutcracker, buying three Christmas trees at once … or just making sure the entire extended family can get through a night without the police getting involved.

Here at Banyan Hill Publishing, we also have an “end of the year” tradition: Our editors like to take this time to look ahead to the new year and make their big stock market predictions.

These are the main insights you’ll want to know when you ring in the new year.

So this time, we decided to share those stock market predictions in a week-long special series in Sovereign Investor Daily and Winning Investor Daily. Each editor shared their prediction on what the big movers and shakers are going to be in 2018 — and how you can take advantage of them.

In case you missed those important nuggets, some of those stock market predictions included…

Matt Badiali: Our expert in all things natural resources, Matt Badiali, sees one unexpected metal rising in 2018 — platinum. As he says, “In 2018, demand for platinum will rise 2% to 8 million ounces. Supply will fall by 1% to 7.75 million ounces … It wouldn’t surprise me to see platinum prices rise 25% next year.”
