How to Gain 25% on a 3% Price Move Using This "Stock Substitute"

By , Money Morning -

The markets are showing signs of life - three sessions' worth of gains.

Trouble is, this is a particularly dangerous time, more so than when stocks are outright plummeting. The "FOMO"-driven temptation to push everything back in to take advantage of another run-up is strong... and the results can be disastrous.

After all, you wouldn't want to run the Boston Marathon a week after a quadruple bypass, right? Let's face it: That would probably be the end. You'd rightly want to take it easy, be judicious in what it is you do or don't do.

As you'll see in Chris Johnson's new recommendation, the markets just aren't strong enough to surge back to record highs without more downside. Big drops will follow big upswings for now, and moving in to ride stocks higher is like grabbing pennies in front of a steamroller.

The good news is, you don't have to wait for the broad market to get its legs back underneath it to start making money. Chris has an easy, low-risk play in mind. It's designed to capture 20%, maybe 25% returns on a 3% move in share price.

You don't have shell out thousands to own a stock that could very well go down, either... you can just "rent" it.

Have a look at what Chris wants to show you...

Make Money Now Like the Pros Do When Strong Markets Pull Back

By , Money Morning -

We haven't seen markets lose much over the past year or so, but, lest we forget, it most definitely is still possible for stocks to go down, like they did earlier this week.

Now, like our Technical Trading Specialist, D.R. Barton, Jr., has been saying, markets don't just up and fall out of bed from all-time highs. He's been saying the prevailing "growth" narrative driving the markets means we're not likely to see dips like this get "bad," or exceed 3% or 5%.

But... here's the thing: You can make money - a lot of money - on small moves up or down like these.

Here to show us all how to do that is D.R. himself. He's got a great way to play "breathers" in otherwise perfectly strong markets.

Five Reasons Why Gold Will Soar in 2018

By , Managing Editor, Money Morning -

2018

Bitcoin - a high-tech, 21st-century investment vehicle if ever there was one - soared from $1,000 to nearly $20,000... and back down to $13,100. It has, of course, got everyone riveted.

Stocks are going ballistic, too, with the market packing on more than 20% in gains over 2017.

And so it's been easy to overlook that 5,000-year-old, decidedly non-virtual asset: gold.

Its story hasn't been flashy; the yellow metal has had a tough time thanks in part to all those strong dollars sitting in optimistic, well-paid investors' pockets.

But, as our Director of Research Matt Warder is about to show you, the bottom is behind us and the way upstairs is wide open for gold gains - possibly even extreme gains - in 2017.

This ride is something no investor can afford to miss...

We're Raising Our Glass to This Double-Your-Money Trade

By , Money Morning -

stocks

The American stock market has been shrinking steadily, losing around 5,700 stocks over the past 10 years or so.

But there's still a bafflingly huge assortment of publicly traded companies to buy here.

Now, there are a few "time-honored" stock-picking methods. To find a winner, you could... go with your gut... throw darts at a list of companies... follow a cable talking head... ask your poker buddies what's in their 401ks... or take a finance degree of your own.

But for truly profitable investing, you need good research and analysis - independent and unbiased - just like we publish in Money Morning every day of the week.

And our Quantitative Specialist (think "rocket scientist, but for stocks") Chris Johnson, a 23-year market veteran, has used some classic technical analysis to pick out one single dynamite company for you to buy today.

And he's even going to show you a way to "juice" the regular gains you'll accrue when you own it, possibly to the tune of 100% or more, very quickly.

And the best part is, you don't have to know a Relative Strength Index from a 50-day simple moving average to clean up here.

Chris has taken care of that for you...
