Investing in Recession Proof Trailer Parks / Companies / Investing 2018

By: Submissions

By ROBERT ROSS : Last month was a bloodbath for stocks.

The S&P 500 sat on a 9.4% gain for the year on October 1.

By October 29, the index was down 1.1%—its worst month in seven years.

But I found one group of stocks that bucked the trend. While other stocks fell in tandem, these stocks showed gains.

Skilled Traders Can Find Profits In Small Caps / Companies / Investing 2018

By: Chris_Vermeulen

The recent downside price rotation in the US Equities markets has been a blessing for skilled traders.  The opportunities for profits are setting up all over the markets – you just have to look for them and understand price theory.

The Small Cap ETF, TNA, is setting up a nearly perfect example of a quick in and out trade for a potential profit of 8% to 15% or more.  We understand the fear that many traders may have in the markets right now and we understand the reason why many experienced traders decide to sit on the sidelines while these types of moves play out.  Yet, we believe the opportunities that exist while these volatile market moves are playing out are some of the best setups for experienced and skilled traders.

Investing - Look at the Facts to Find the Truth / Stock-Markets / Investing 2018

By: Rodney_Johnson

The truth is…

I can’t stand sentences that start with that.

Typically, the author or speaker is discussing a controversial topic and trying to lay the groundwork for his or her position, casting everyone else as a liar or simpleton.

Paul Krugman of The New York Times comes to mind.

By: Stephen_McBride

57 million people tuned in to watch a recent professional video-gaming (esports) match. That’s almost 3x more than the 2018 NBA finals.

Maybe you’re thinking it’s a stretch to call video gaming a “sport.” Call it whatever you want, so long as you understand that massive sums of cash are pouring into this booming sector.

Blue Chip Companies on Track for $800 billion Buyback Record in 2018 / Companies / Investing 2018

By: Richard_Mills

Donald Trump's tax cuts are already paying dividends... well, actually the companies that are benefiting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act passed by the Trump Administration in December are not only returning cash to shareholders in the form of dividends, but are presiding over what could be the largest share buyback program in history.

The legislation slashed the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% and the top individual tax rate shrunk to 37%. It also cut income tax rates, doubled the standard deduction and eliminated personal exemptions. All told, the Trump tax cuts are the eighth largest since 1918, and represent just over 1% of GDP – in other words, how much federal revenue the government will forego as a percentage of the economy.

5 Reasons Why Commodities Are the Investment Place to be in 2018 / Commodities / Investing 2018

By: Richard_Mills

The stock market pullback of the last couple of weeks has shown that markets are jittery, and will likely be volatile for awhile as investors keep a vigil on rising bond yields (inflation) and potential interest rate hikes. In these uncertain times, one sector that appears to be holding its own, and then some, is commodities. Let’s examine why this is the case, and why commodities are going to be THE place to put your money in 2018.

The correction

The stock market correction (let’s not call it a crash) that suddenly saw everyone’s trading apps turn red on Monday Feb. 5 shocked investors. The S&P 500 was off 4.1% at 2,648 - the worst fall in 6.5 years. The rot spread to Asian stock markets the next day, with Japan’s Topix index falling 6.3%, South Korea’s Kospi losing 2.6%, and Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 down by 3.7%.

BY JARED DILLIAN : This is a story I have never told before and will never tell again.

I actually got my start in investing in a stock-picking competition in middle school. I picked Wang Laboratories…

Because…

WANG

Thirteen-year-old humor. Anyway, Wang was a flop, and I lost money on it. Talk about dating yourself—the old-timers will recall that Wang was actually an AMEX stock, the old curb exchange. I do miss the AMEX.

Barton Biggs was a guru hedge fund manager and global investment strategist.

He was also a serious student of World War II. His book Wealth, War & Wisdom is about what happened to stock markets and wealth during WW2.
