In today’s video, Ted shows how rapidly rising interest rate expectations are driving massive rotations in the stock market. He explains the concept of “duration” and predicts the magnitude of these shifts. But the news is not all bad. Every rotation has an upside as well. By adopting a simple Big Picture-based trading system, Ted shows how you can make Big Profits in 2022.
When it comes to toying with your emotions, there’s probably no place worse than the stock market. That’s because our instincts and built-in tendencies serve us poorly as investors. There’s even a growing field to study and explain these “behavioral biases.” Some are well-documented, like herding. That’s where investors just follow what everyone else is doing (which is a bad idea, of course).But there’s another instinct I’m seeing a lot more of lately. And like all the others we fall prey to, when followed blindly, it can do real damage to your portfolio. That is: the urge to buy something on sale.
“A what?” That’s the response from my 10-year-old when I asked if he’s ever played with an Etch A Sketch. As he toyed with his iPad, I told him it’s the original tablet that you simply shook to start over. Which makes it the perfect tablet for writing a script for this stock market — shake it and start over! It sure would be nice if a script like that did exist. Some have even tried to assume that the economic cycle follows some nice plot with stock market sectors responding on cue. But it’s never that simple…
Looking forward to 2022, I have two major predictions.
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…
