Most Stock Market Predictions Won't Tell You About This Opportunity

By now you're well aware of how volatile stocks have been this year. No one foresaw a 35% drop in the Dow Jones from January 1 to March 23, or the breakneck rally since then.

Now, three months out from mid-March stocks are still climbing. In fact, the Dow is up 41% from its low. When you look at the graph, it looks almost like that "V-shaped recovery" we've all secretly been longing for.

But how do you know it's going to last? Often, appearances are not what they seem. This has been more true than ever in 2020. So how can we speak with certainty about anything after so much has changed?

How You Can Cash In on the Housing Market's Surprising Performance

If you folks have been following along, you'll know that I've recently started offering a free new service called Profit Pregame, where every morning Monday through Friday, I've been delivering an easy-to-digest rundown of the market, answering the three simple questions:

What's happening?

Where's the money?

How can I get some?

Today, I want to aim these three questions toward the housing market's unexpected comeback. I'll break down how you can profit from this sector's surprising stability…

What's Happening?

Despite the impact of coronavirus, Americans are still ready and willing to buy a new home or fix up their current one.

To no one's surprise, the housing market experienced a sharp decline at the beginning of the pandemic…

In fact, in April, pending home sales reached their lowest point in nearly two years.

However, as restrictions begin to lift and more Americans go back to work, an influx of buyers and sellers are coming back to the market. And this rapid return is beginning to form what could be a "V-shaped" recovery.

Over the past few weeks alone, purchases have been skyrocketing. And we're seeing 13% more than at this same time last year.

Listed homes are also typically under contract within 30 days, which indicates that the market is moving fast.

That leads us to where the money is here…

How to Make the Most of the Incredible Growth Cannabis Has in Store

Legalization of cannabis at the federal level will happen.

And when it does, the money flowing into this sector will be historic – inflows we haven't seen in decades.

That's not the only attraction.

At a time when many industries and businesses have had to shutter locations or close up indefinitely, cannabis businesses have been growing.

It's one of the few industries adding jobs at a time when unemployment has soared to tens of millions more being out of work.

We've been telling you about cannabis for awhile, and the timing is tricky.

But the last domino is about to fall - take a look...

The Angel Investing Advice I Give My Parents and Friends

Five years ago, my parents decided that they also wanted to start investing into some of the top startups in Silicon Valley. They were beginners, and needless to say, I had plenty of advice to share.

Since then, they've been investing alongside me. So far, they have had quite a good run.

If early indicators are to be believed, their portfolio will outperform 90% of professional venture capitalists – and with a little luck, may even land them into the coveted top 5% of professional investor territory.

That's not bad considering my mom (a nurse) and my father (an engineer) spend less than two hours a week on their investments…

These three tips are what I've hammered into my parents since day one. They didn't just help my parents achieve great returns as angel investors; they showed them how to do so in a predictable manner.

These rules are the same ones I wish someone had shared with me when I was starting out.

Of course, I'm no longer a beginner, but I revisit these rules every single week and consider them as I make any new investment. And I shared one of the most important ones with you just last week.

Continuing to follow these tips has allowed me to separate the winning investments from the duds. Today I'm sharing them with you… Full Story
