Why I’m Still Bullish on SPACs
This week, the song remains the same.
The stock market remains sloppy and weak, with each attempt at a rally being met with selling in response to worsening news out of Ukraine. That situation appears to have little to no chance of improving any time soon. In addition to the real human suffering in Eastern Europe, the disruptions to the supply chain for many critical commodities are adding to inflationary pressures around the world.
The weakness in equity markets is also reflected in SPAC trading, “blank check” companies, before and after they announce merger partners. A simple Google search yields results detailing a recent “bloodbath” and “de-SPAC carnage,” with the fate of the surviving few uncertain, and how other investors are leaving the SPAC and De-SPAC market in droves; and blah, blah, blah
But I’m not one to follow the crowd. Everyone on the run from the SPACs market these days is leaving behind ripening profit opportunities – one of which I’ll outline for you today.

Buy this Mining Corp Before Stagflationary Fears Become Reality
Right now, consumer demand strong, the economy growing, and employment is on the rise… But that won’t stave off stagflation very much longer. A high inflation environment and a slowing (or stagnant) economy are right around the corner. Add that …

The Way to Profit Off of Rivian’s Disappointing Financials
Rivian Automotive Inc. (RIVN), an electric truck manufacturer, reported quarterly results on Friday that disappointed investors. The stock dropped more than 7.33% in early-Friday trading.
For the quarter, the company reported revenue of $54 million which was considerably lower than the estimates of $64 million.
On the bottom line, adjusted earnings were a $2.43 loss per share, also lower than estimates of a $2.05 loss per share.
Beyond the financials, what really impacted the stock was Rivian’s new production forecast. The company once claimed it could produce 50,000 vehicles per year. Now, due to persistent supply chain issues, its capacity has been cut to 25,000. Rivian just can’t get key components it needs to finish building its vehicles.
Even with the pandemic easing and the global supply chain crunch slowly mending, I think it’s going to be quite some time before RIVN is at full production capacity.
In the meantime, the company is burning through cash, has large operating losses, and rising interest rates will hurt the stock’s forward valuation.
I wouldn’t be surprised if we don’t see a short-term rally as bargain hunters move in to catch a bounce, but longer term, I think shares are heading lower, at least until they have a plan for sustainable production increases.
If shares of RIVN trade up to $39.75 by March 18, let’s buy the RIVN May 20, 2022 $35/$30 Put Spread for $2.25 or less. Plan on exiting the RIVN May 20, 2022 $35/$30 Put Spread for a 100% profit or if shares of RIVN close above $49.50.
But that’s not all I’m watching this week.

Commodities are hot right now, and for good reason. Oil, corn, wheat… they’re all through the roof – but they may not stay that way, especially where agricultural commodities are concerned. For all kinds of reasons, agricultural commodities don’t always …

The Way to Cash in on Soaring Oil Prices
Oil, natural gas, and energy stocks are all soaring. Just take a look at how US Oil Fund (USO), Exxon Mobile (XOM), and Tuesday’s recommendation Cactus Inc (WHD) have fared in the last month.

So, in today’s Total Wealth, I’m giving youthe smart way to get aboard what might be a momentum ride higher for already rocketing energy plays and, at the same time, set yourself up to profit if they crash back to earth.

Mind Your Profits: SWIFT but Blunt Reaction to Russia-Ukraine War to Weaken USD
On Tuesday, CEO of JPMorgan Chase Jamie Dimon warned the world that cutting Russia out of the SWIFT system would yield “unintended consequences.”
That’s a monumental understatement.
In short, SWIFT is a system banks use to securely and quickly communicate transfer instructions across international borders. Cutting off an entire nation and its people from this system will have steep consequences across the globe.
We could be looking at the potential demise of the US dollar as the world’s reserve currency, another likely Lehman moment, and the acceleration of China’s progress from third-world nation to global power.
Here’s how the US’s influence on this apolitical system could hasten China’s ascent to global power.

Europe’s Breadbasket Under Siege, Grab Commodities While You Still Can
Here in the US, when we hear “breadbasket” we usually think of the Midwest. Ohio, Kansas, Illinois… When Europeans hear the phrase, they think of Ukraine – and for good reason. The country distributes 12% of global wheat exports, 16% …

The Real Estate Bubble That Isn’t – And How to Invest in It
Headlines about the residential real estate bubble popping any day now are nothing but fake news.
Just because prices of homes have skyrocketed doesn’t mean they’re coming down as they did in 2008, a true real estate crash. Home prices aren’t coming down; they’re going higher.
And there’s nothing “bubbleicious” about it.
In today’s Total Wealth, I’m exploringwhy the feared residential real estate “bubble” isn’t a bubble -and how you can ride the long-term appreciation potential of the boom by investing in it.

This Here Isn’t a Housing Bubble… It’s an Opportunity
Housing is hot.
The entire industry is booming, with demand for houses high and the prices of those houses even higher. The median value of a house in the United States right now is 20% higher than it was last year as high demand bids up prices.
And, according to some, this wild price growth (and dwindling affordability) can’t last. The boom has become a bubble, and something has got to give.
