The number one question you ask me is this: "What's the best stock to buy right now?"
Now, I've trained 300,000 people all over the world how to trade options. I ran the world's largest options training company and appeared on several radio shows.
No matter what medium I trained people in, no matter where in the world I was, that's what people always asked me. I heard it everywhere.

Let me show you how to do just that...
Why Trading the Haystack Is Better Than Trading the Needle

But the ETF won't drop nearly as much, if at all, because the other stocks in the fund will hold the overall ETF up.
Of course, that also works in reverse - the ETF won't double when any given stock in it does. But the strength of the ETF over any one stock is the key.
