This Trade War's Next Casualty Could Be You

by

Last week, I covered the shots across the bow from both the United States and China in the growing trade war. Today, I'm going to take a deep dive into both parties' next moves and how the markets would inevitably react. 

With the mid-term elections coming up in November, it looks like the Chinese are cleverly exerting pressure directly on the president and the Republican Party.

In a deft political move, the Chinese are targeting U.S. products coming out of "red" states. Specifically, they are going after products made or grown in counties that voted for Donald Trump for president.

That's putting pressure on Trump supporters, who are now at odds over losing income and jobs and still believing in the president's agenda and politics.

And that's not the only curveball China will be lobbing at the United States.

Here's what could happen next and how to protect yourself when these warning shots turn into all-out war...

Why the Price of Silver Is Down This Week and Where It's Headed Next

by

I’m excited about silver.

Now let me first say I know what happened to the price of silver over the last week.

The precious metal is down 2%, and that’s after the Fed rate hike is finally out of the way.

I also know the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) is up over that same time.

In fact, it jumped some 150 basis points, driven by both the rate hike and weakness in the euro.

But remember, gold tends to put in a low around the time we get rate hikes, and it also tends to put in a seasonal bottom around mid-June.

And silver tends to follow gold’s lead.

Cash In on the Housing Market No Matter Where It Goes Next

by

It's not like the talking heads of the media to be quiet about much – but lately, they've been hush-hush when it comes to the housing market…

Now, this is odd seeing that last year was filled with warnings regarding the housing bubble being the next to "burst."

And yet most Americans find themselves feeling rather positive about the outlook of the market, and over 64% believe that the price of real estate will continue to climb…

Here's the thing though: This optimism hasn't been around since 2005 – which was right before we experienced the infamous housing crisis.

You may find yourself wondering what's going to come next, but the truth is, no one can be 100% sure.

But that doesn't mean you can't profit off this booming "bubble."

Here's what I mean...

Three Ways to Score Big Profits on Your Next Earnings Trade

by

In a recent interview with CNBC, Jack Bogle – the former CEO and founder of Vanguard Group — admitted he had "never seen a market this volatile in 66 years."

On top of this, we've got earnings season to contend with, which could send the markets soaring or crashing…

And when the uncertainty is high, I know it's easy to be tempted to sit on the sidelines entirely.

But when you pull yourself out of the game due to unstable markets, you may be safe, but you miss huge profit opportunities, too.  

So, I'm going to reveal to you exactly how to trade through earnings – even in one of the most volatile markets we've seen.

And it's easier than you think...

Unlock Unlimited Profits on Your Next Earnings Trade Using This Simple Strategy

by

We all know that President Trump signed a $1.5 trillion tax cut into law in December, which was deemed the first significant tax reform signed into legislation since Ronald Reagan back in 1986.

We also know that all the talk last earnings season was that companies felt good about their future prospects from this tax law and the promise of less regulation from Washington, D.C.

That's also why many companies offered some nice bonuses to their employees and raised their earnings guidance, with some even announcing share buybacks.

But we're entering a new earnings season, and this optimism may not necessarily help drive the markets higher. It didn't help all stocks pop higher the last time around, either.

And when it comes to the markets, this next round of earnings could make or break volatility – and your trades.

That is, unless you know this lucrative strategy...

Facebook Stock Suffers Largest Decline in Four Years - Here's What to Do Next

by

Facebook stock suffered its largest one-day decline (by percentage points) in nearly four years on Monday and was the primary catalyst cited for the steep drop in the markets. The stock closed 6.8% lower as it was reported that Cambridge Analytica (a political analysis firm) collected and stored data from 50 million users' accounts without permission.

Now this has the financial news networks driving investor fears about owning tech stocks through the roof. And unfortunately, when these kinds of things happen, the question then becomes whether or not you should dump everything you own.

But my direction to you is the same as it always has been…

Don't get caught up in the noise and forced commentary of the talking heads who sensationalize to get their ratings – and their revenue – up.

Plus, when a stock is really headed to Wall Street purgatory, we'll sound the alarm…

In terms of dumping your tech stocks, especially FB, that's the worst thing you could do to your portfolio right now.

Here's why...
