Stand Firm as They Run: How to Profit Off Falling Markets

The whole stock market is falling. The Dow is down 12% off its highs in January, the S&P 500 is down 16%, and the Nasdaq, which once ruled the stock market, is down 26%.

It’s ugly out there, but I’m still playing the markets – and you should be, too.

Bull or bear market, there are plenty of ways to turn a profit in the stock market. While others, fearful of the downward trend, run for the hills, you can set in motion two profitable plays (one of which could yield a 100% gain).

Protect Your Money from the Fed’s BS with New Oil Plays

I hope you didn’t get suckered in by the Fed this week. Wednesday’s rally, which came just after the Fed announced a 50 basis point hike in the fed funds rate (instead of 75), wasn’t a sign to run back into the markets.

That was nothing but short covering. The markets are down again today and the trend is likely to continue downward until the Fed changes course. And it will.

Until then, we need to stick with what’s working, with the tried and true companies still making great earnings, to turn a profit – and I’ve got just the plays for you.

The Fed is Almost Always Wrong, and That Gives Us a New Opportunity

Invest in These Two Giants Before Fed Policy Triggers Rush into Big Tech

I think 2022 and early 2023 will be the year of big tech growth stocks.

You heard me right. I said “growth” stocks, not “value” stocks.

Since mid-2021, the market started pricing in higher interest rates. That impacted the valuation of tech companies based on discounted cash flow pricing models. And that, in turn, drove prices down on most tech growth stocks.

Now though, with the U.S. economy posting negative GDP last week, the Federal Reserve will have to tread very carefully regarding its interest rate policy.

If the Fed indicates any dovish change in its longer-term interest rate policy, we could see a huge rush of capital back into big tech growth stocks.

I don’t think the Fed will change its narrative anytime soon (for risk of losing credibility). Still, traders are going to see the same opportunity I’m seeing, and that’s going to cause small rallies as traders start to position themselves for the future in big tech companies like this one.

Read on to learn how you can position yourself for the future with two new trades.
