Something funny is going on in the world of cryptocurrencies. And the hypocrisy is rich.

Over the last 20 years, a portfolio of buyback heavy stocks outperformed the S&P 500 by over 80% – and nobody’s talking about it.

You’ve heard analysts, and financial gurus, and pundits say, “The market just wants to go up,” which makes the market sound like it’s a living, breathing thing and makes its own independent decisions.

Well, it is. The stock market is, in a very real sense, a living, breathing “thing.”

That’s because the market’s made up of traders and investors, and you better believe they make their own decisions, even when those decisions are more dependent than independent, as they are now.

And right now, the market is telling us something, and for your money’s sake, you better listen…

If you’re thinking about turning your passion into your job, you might want to consider this one detail first.

The lunacy continues… and it’s your money that’s at risk.

If you’re worried about negative news stories tanking the stock market, you’ve got a lot of company.

Investors are worried about what virus spikes and more shutdowns, if not lockdowns, will do to stocks.

They’re worried that companies laying off workers by the thousands means their earnings are faltering.

Everyone’s worried what will happen to the market if there’s no “stimulus” bill passed this year.

They’re worried about a contested election and how markets will deal with that.

And investors are worried about what a reconstituted Congress might do to kill the bull market.

Me, I’m not worried because there’s another side to every coin and every negative story.

Here’s the heads-up on the other side of the bad news, and what’s good for the market.

A trip to the emergency room tells us a lot about the future of America…

The easiest thing in the world is to assume we can just rock along with the way things are and all will be well. But that won’t solve anything.

The Dow rose 508 points, or 1.9% last week. The S&P 500 rose 1.5%. And the Nasdaq Composite rose the same 1.5%.

That’s what I call a bullish week, not because it was a rah, rah run for the high ground kind of week, simply because we ended the week up when we easily could have slid backwards.

We rose on uneventful volume, to be sure, but we rose.

Proof that it was a good week and that bulls are ready to breakout of their corral and maybe stampede higher was especially evident on Friday. After futures pointed to a hellish day ahead, on the heels of the President seen headed for the hospital on Thursday, once the market opened, buyers came in.

It wasn’t a “good” day Friday, but it easily could have been an ugly day. Instead, we saw how willing buyers were to come in and take their shots. That’s bullish.

Nobody should be broke in a nation filled with such robust saving and investing options. But they are. And it isn’t a problem the government will solve.
