If Markets Don’t Rally This Week, It’s Going to Get Ugly

Talk about ugly; last week was “fugly.”

Surging COVID spikes across Europe caused closedowns and some lockdowns.

The U.S. registered almost 100,000 new COVID cases on Friday, bringing the total number of infected Americans to more than 9,000,000.

Are we headed where Europe’s going, again?

Here’s Everything That Can Go Wrong This Election… and How You Can Make Money No Matter What Happens

Just when you thought political division in the U.S. couldn’t get any worse, it’s about to.

And just when you thought the stock market was holding up, it’s puking.

Not only will the Presidential election likely be contested, Congressional candidates for seats in the House and Senate are likely to contest ballot counts in many of those races.

The discord, to be politically polite, is slicing and dicing stocks across all industries.

There’s a lot to cover in today’s issue, from what can and likely will go wrong, to how the next President might be chosen – and by whom and when.

But most importantly, the stock market might keep puking, and you’re going to want to be set up to make money as stuff hits the fan next week.

Google’s Getting Knocked Down, But It’s Not Out Yet

Alphabet Inc. (NasdaqGS:GOOG)’s Google division has a heavyweight fight on its hands, defending itself against Justice Department (DOJ) claims that the search giant is a “monopoly gatekeeper for the internet” and uses “anticompetitive tactics” to maintain and extend its monopolies in search and search ads.

The lawsuit’s prosecutors, alleging Google stifles competition and innovation from smaller upstarts and harms consumers by reducing the quality and variety of search options, will undoubtedly draw on Google’s losing battles with European Union competition regulators and on the outcome of the monopoly case the DOJ waged against Microsoft Corp. (NasdaqGS:MSFT) twenty years ago.

Here’s how the DOJ will lean on previous outcomes to make its case, how Google will defend itself, and how the lawsuit will impact Google’s stock and other tech giants’ share prices…

Capital Wave Forecast: Trouble is Brewing as We Close in On the Election

Last week, the Dow ended the week down 0.9%. The S&P ended down 0.5%. The Nasdaq Composite fell 1.1%.

Very much in line with what your Capital Wave Forecast predicted the week before.

This week, we’re likely to see more of the same, maybe a lot more selling, but not because of company metrics or market conditions. Rather, it may be because of the election next week, and we may feel the effects for the week after, and maybe the week after that.

Get it?

There might be trouble ahead, but the grass is still green out there.

Here’s what to look forward to as we close in on Election Day…
