This Record-Setting Stock Trend Could Deliver Your Next Big Winner

by

The financial news networks have their hands full.

That's why today, I want to talk to you about something they're missing…

You see, the buyback corner of the market has been serving up record-breaking numbers lately.

Now, I know that "buybacks" may not sound like the most exciting thing in the news right now – but the truth is, they're extremely important for the overall market.

And this could be the one catalyst we're looking for to rally the market higher.

Here's what I mean...

by

The Dow Jones today futures fell 187 points this morning after President Donald Trump suggested that any discussion of a thaw in Chinese trade relations were premature.

Earnings

We're Right in the Thick of 2018's Biggest Profit Opportunities

by

What could be better? We're now in the first full week of the season, with 62 S&P 500 companies on the docket.

This is a critical season that I believe takes on more significance than most. That's because the market itself is at a critical juncture – a tipping point, if you will.

The bulls and bears are in a monster tug-of-war over the market's direction during the next few months, and, naturally, earnings could be the factor that tips the scale one way or the other.

Forget Trump - This "Value Play" Stock Is a Long-Term Buy

by

We all know what happened in the stock market last week.

And while it seems as though volatility isn't quite over – that's not what I want to talk about today.

Instead, I want to focus on a company that's found itself in a center-stage battle with President Trump himself.

This company is one of the most valued companies in the world when it comes to patents.

It's got royalties coming in from all over the world.

And it's not Amazon.com Inc. (Nasdaq: AMZN)...
