More analysts, economists, and former Federal Reserve officials are predicting a recession – one that will stagger the U.S. economy. That’s frightening investors into selling profitable positions and going to the sidelines.

I say they’re wrong, and getting out of the market now is a mistake, and I’m telling you why in today’s edition of Total Wealth.

Read on to learn just what these recession hawks are saying, why they’re saying it, what the reality is, and how to trade recession fears.

If you’ve turned on your television lately, you’ve seen the headlines and maybe read some of the analysts’ reports spreading doom and gloom. The rapid spread of omicron and stories about slowdowns, shutdowns, and lockdowns have all but dominated the headlines. You’ve been told to expect higher inflation, rising interest rates, falling company earnings, and peak valuations across the stock market.

At this point, some investors are running for the hills and putting all of their money into gold bullion.

Fortunately for us, we know something that the financial media doesn’t know.

While some may be running from the markets, they’re about to be crushed by some 71 million new investors who aren’t afraid of anything. These investors are going to plow so much money into the market that they’re actually going to propel the S&P 500 300% higher, maybe more, in the next seven years or sooner.

The media and analysts don’t see what’s happening below. They’re trying to stoke fear where there is none. They don’t see what we see. And they don’t know what we know.

Demographics move markets. I’ve been beating that drum for years. And this next round of generational investors is the largest we’ve seen in decades.

New investors, some 71 million of them, are coming into the market. And they’re collectively far more important than any earnings, profit margins, or net income measures.

“They” are the millennials. And there are 71 million of them ranging from 27 years old to 44 years old now. They are starting to enter the equity universe.

And believe me, nothing moves stocks and markets higher like more buyers than sellers.

This isn’t some fringe belief either. It’s been corroborated by the finest researchers on Wall Street.

Just ask researchers John Geanakoplos of Yale University, Michael Magill of the University of Southern California, and Martine Quinzii of the University of California, Davis. Their report, Demography and the Long-Run Predictability of the Stock Market, supports what we know. They found that population booms around the 30s to 50s correspond to stock market booms.

More investors entering the stock market means a better chance for a bull market.

You probably didn’t know it, but we’re entering one of those “bull market periods” now, right on top of the raging bull market we’ve been enjoying since 2009.

The rationale is simple: stocks are now the principal vehicle for retirement-headed people who start thinking about investing in their future when they’re in their 30s and 40s. That’s where Millenials are right now.

Now might be the perfect time to jump back in on a couple of stocks that were long forgotten because of COVID-19.

And on the other hand, other stocks out there have the potential of continuing their dominance on the market.

Today I’m going to reveal two stocks that will do just that.

I don’t want to burst anyone’s bubble, especially not the everything rally’s party, but the benchmark 10-year Treasury rate is starting to look like the head of a pin.

Bubbling stocks and other inflated asset classes are in danger of popping if rates keep rising, and they sure look like they’re going to keep climbing. But even if the bubble pops, we can still turn a profit, and I’m going to tell you how.

Let’s dive in…

The up and down sounds you’re hearing out of equity markets reminds me of what it sounds like when racecar drivers, positioned on the starting grid, rev their engines before the checkered flag is waved to start the race.

Investors know there’s a big spending race about to start with the Biden administration poised to unleash a torrent of cash on households, unemployment support, health initiatives, states and cities, and eventually on infrastructure and a Green New Deal. As such, they’re positioning themselves.

Here’s how you can do the same…

As Yogi Berra famously said, “It’s like déjà vu all over again.”

I’m talking about the parallels between the day trading craze in the 1990s that helped fuel the 2000 “tech wreck,” and today’s retail investors driving stocks higher in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.

The question now is, what will happen to the market if stocks, pumped up by retail speculators, falter like they did in the dot.com bust?

Here’s what happened with retail investors in the 1990s, what they’re doing now, and what could happen to the stock market.

The stock market’s bounce off its March 23, 2020 lows turned into a rally, then into a bull market.

At least that’s what everyone saw happening until yesterday, when the Nasdaq Composite fell 5.27%, the S&P 500 fell 5.89%, The Dow Jones Industrials fell 6.9%, and the Russell 2000 fell a whopping 7.63%.

Is the rally over? Is the selling just some profit-taking? Or were we all head-faked into believing the worst is over as far as the stock market, the worst is over as far as the economy, and the worst is over as far as the pandemic?

The truth is out there.

But nothing is set in stone. If the pandemic comes back, the riots continue, or the President keeps tweeting, anything could happen.

The best way to protect yourself is to take concrete steps towards financial safety and economic security.

Thousands of Americans may think they’re set in the event of a crisis, not unlike the one we’re seeing now, but that frankly isn’t true. The truth is that a second downturn could absolutely ruin your financial future.

Unless you take the necessary precautions to prepare.

It’s nothing timely or complex – in fact, protecting your wealth can be one of the easiest things you do, if you follow these simple steps .

We’ve seen over $6 trillion evaporate in 2020 alone. Don’t lose any more cash and don’t let the effects of the coronavirus, or the seesawing market, take any more money out of your pocket (or your retirement fund, or your children’s college educations…)

You can protect yourself if you know what you’re up against, why our markets are hurting, and how you can make money against all odds.

Here’s how the market got to where it is, what just happened, what could happen, and how to play the market no matter what happens…
