🤔 My Thoughts
President Trump is working hard to set the tone for his second term.
He and his cabinet have been clear that stock market prices will not dictate his trade and economic policy.
He and treasury secretary Bessent have said that a recession isn’t off the table… and short term pain may be necessary for long term growth.
This confirms what we’ve been saying for a while: that some type of correction is inevitable (and natural)… and President Trump wants to rip the bandaid off now, early in his presidency, so he can build towards longer and more sustainable prosperity later in the term.
He may be right about this!
And not just good economics – but good politics too, given that the bottom 80% of Americans own just 8% of the markets, and the bottom 50% own virtually none.
But it’s little consolation to those of us who are serious traders and investors, at least in the short term.
Well… it would be little consolation if you don’t adapt what you’re doing to these chaotic conditions.
I’m going live at 12:00 PM EST today to share my favorite strategy for this mess of a market. It involves trading AAPL stock… but we’re NOT simply buying and holding. See how we’ve been able to win 9 of our last 10 trades in this roller coaster market when you RSVP free right here.
