Tom Gentile has shown beyond a shadow of a doubt that trading a fairly small basket of stocks consistently can pay off big-time.
That’s because he knows it’s not necessarily what you trade, but how you trade it that counts.

Inflation and sky-high valuations have finally caught up with the big tech stocks; the entire NASDAQ is down 3% for the month, and it looks even worse stock by stock.
But one exchange-traded fund (ETF) just hit Chris Johnson's "buy" zone – it's offering at least 55% in profit potential right now.

The tech sell-off of the past month stopped in its tracks on Wednesday and by midday yesterday, the Nasdaq was up more than 6%, paring its one-month decline to just under 5%.
Investors are hopping on the bandwagon, and while Andrew believes tech will ultimately recover to lead again, he doesn’t see it happening today.
So, here’s the best move to make right now….

While our Shah Gilani is unquestionably bullish, he’s a cautious bull.
And he’s got a wary eye on a market mechanic at work right now that could, potentially, turn a simple dip into something much uglier.
The good news is, once you know it’s a possibility, it’s really simple to protect yourself and get into position to cash in….

We've seen the Dow swing from 29,100 to 26,763 since the highs of Sept. 2 – and if that's not "volatility," I don't know what is.
That's probably pretty scary for buy-and-hold investors, but the thing is, as traders, we absolutely need that volatility; if stocks won't budge, most trades just won't make money – definitely not the kind of money that frees you up to spend an hour trading and the rest of the time doing what you want.
So we need markets to swing around a bit, and that means we also need a good plan to stay on the winning side of those big moves.
It turns out "plan your trade and trade your plan" is an old Wall Street saying for a really good reason.

A UBS study not long ago polled 3,750 investors, and 81% are predicting another market crash before the end of the year. The average drop of the predictions? Thirty-five percent.
Now, I'm usually not one to run with a crowd, but in this case… Well, even the most bullish optimists out there in Sunshine Town have to admit, the risks are there, and they're pretty easy to see.
We've got a potentially chaotic, drawn-out presidential election in November, which is right around the time experts agree cooler weather could bring worse COVID-19 outbreaks. We've got tensions with Iran; China and India have a bone to pick with each other, too. And, any given hour of the day or night, a provocative tweet from the White House could upend any and everything, really.
The 10% dip the Nasdaq took last week could be just an appetizer. Any one or a combination of those things could send stocks tumbling just as low, or lower, than we saw in March.
Look, I'm not saying this to spoil your good time. And I'm not saying it's time to head for the hills – not by a long shot.
But it is the perfect time to look at some inexpensive and, in some cases, potentially very profitable ways to fortify our portfolios and any long-term positions we might like to have on.
These moves will work if we have another crash, but they'll also pay off if we get another big gap downward like last week's, which could be even be more likely than a flat-out crash.

Markets faltered in early trading this morning as the Trump administration moved to block shipments of semiconductors to Huawei Technologies from global chipmakers.
Retails sales data also showed a 16.4% month-over-month drop in April – an all-time record.
The news sent the Dow down 1% to start the day, before it rallied and closed 0.25% higher as news surfaced that the White House would likely support a new round of stimulus checks.
The full bill would include an additional $3 trillion total worth of stimulus.
Here's what our experts – D.R. Barton, Jr., and Shah Gilani – thought about the moves in financial markets today and what they're looking for next week.
