JUST LETTING YOU KNOW…

9 trading days left in the year.

In the past few months, I made a point of telling you that we’re entering a very tough period for the market…and that’s what we got.

I said it based on how many areas of the market that had topped out–combined with policy, Europe, deficits, margins, lack of expansion. A nauseating nine months.

And nauseating doesn’t mean the market has to be down 50%. It means some financials are down 40% to 50%, commodities 25% to 30%, foreign markets anywhere from 15% to 30%…and a lot stocks beaten up, a lot of past growth leaders destroyed. No leadership whatsoever. Can’t make any money on your savings as the moronic, maniacal Fed has rates at zero.

So what do we do during this time.

Patience. Patience.

If there’s any one thing I’m happy about, it’s the patience I’ve had. And it was caused by a) the markets and b) trying to do a couple things that just didn’t work. When things don’t work, you have to patient.

While so many will discouraged and upset…and tend to walk away….

THERE IS NO BETTER TIME IN THE MARKETS THAN WHAT WE ARE SEEING RIGHT NOW.

…Here’s why:

Bears markets always end. And what they do is spawn new bull phases with names you have never heard of that go on to two-, four-, five-….ten-fold moves. So I’m still hard at work and I will continue to be work hard at it….and wait until…

…A lot of leadership shows up. And its not  there yet.

…And I’m looking for new names. Can’t find any yet.

  1. Hi I found your blog thanks to a friend’s advice.
    I like what you write because is an approach similar to mine.
    I’ll continue to read you over time and post comments.

    yes, some leaders were destroyed recently (think to netflix, Green mountains, ecc ecc) and this is not a good signal.
    Market is weak now, maybe Bernie could “drug” it for a while with another QE in January or March?
    it’s likely.
    At the moment I wait and make some swing trades, because with my breakout trades this year was tough
    Happy Xmas
    ciao
