    Most Stocks and ETFs Are Trash - These Trades Will Actually Make You Money

    By Money Morning Staff Reports, Money Morning - August 3, 2018

    They hide it well, but the financial wizards on Wall Street do not have your best interests at heart. If trading on margin can leverage potential rewards, then they give you three - and even four - times leverage to super magnify risks.

    And if diversifying a portfolio with a mutual fund is good, they give you mutual funds that invest in other mutual funds.

    The common thread? No matter what the market does, they collect their fees. They'll recommend all types of stocks and ETFs, regardless of quality, just to collect that commission.

    But with the strategy we're showing you today, you won't have to worry about this ever again...

Most Stocks and ETFs Are Trash - These Trades Will Actually Make You Money

How You Could Pocket Up to $11,000 Every Week by Playing "the Middleman"

By Cooper Creagan, Associate Editor, Money Morning - May 11, 2018

Middlemen

Wall Street's biggest investment banks don't make the bulk of their money from investments.

They're middlemen, raking in billions in fees from normal investors like you.

But with this formula, you can beat them at their own game...

How Wall Street Wins Its No-Lose Trades

By Shah Gilani, Chief Investment Strategist, Money Morning • @ShahGilani_TW - January 5, 2018

Wall Street

The madness of the manipulation machinery on Wall Street knows no bounds.

Remember credit default swaps (CDS)? They're the risky financial derivatives traded among FDIC-insured banks that, during the 2007-08 financial crisis, took down Lehman Bros. and almost bankrupted giant insurer AIG Inc.

Well, they never went away. And now they're making a comeback, and Wall Street is using them in ever more maniacal ways.

Today, I'm going to show you how Wall Street manipulators are using CDS and a false front of "activism" to make huge profits from troubled companies - and why that's becoming routine....

How We Can Stop the Globalization That's Bleeding Us Dry

By Shah Gilani, Chief Investment Strategist, Money Morning • @ShahGilani_TW - May 27, 2017

globalization

Earlier this week, Shah showed you how financialization of the U.S. economy could destroy the middle class.

Globalization is also an insidious contributor to the widening income gap and wealth inequality in the U.S. It's essentially another nail in the coffin of the middle class.

But it's still possible to stop both of these disasters before it really is too late...

A U.S. Court Practically Declared Insider Trading Legal

By Shah Gilani, Chief Investment Strategist, Money Morning • @ShahGilani_TW - December 15, 2014

insider trading

Wednesday, December 10, 2014, was a great day to be an insider trader.

A three-judge panel of the U.S. Second Circuit Court of Appeals overturned insider trading convictions of former hedge fund managers Todd Newman and Anthony Chiasson.

Not only did the appeals court reverse the much-publicized guilty verdicts against the two traders, its 28-page decision effectively rewrites the meaning of insider trading.

The immediate outcome of the decision not only affects the two hedge fund executives, other traders convicted of insider trading, and charged individuals who pled guilty, it will also change how traders use inside information to their benefit in the future.

The court decision is as surprising as it is profound...

These Signs of Market Trouble Are Looming

By Michael E. Lewitt, Global Credit Strategist, Money Morning • @MichaelELewitt - July 10, 2014

Editor's Note: By now you're familiar with Michael E. Lewitt of The Credit Strategist. We love his work. Today, he has a special report on current, troubling conditions at this late stage - and a dire warning for investors who may be unprepared. Here's Michael...

"Markets are priced to perfection...

Signs of late cycle behavior and thinking are abundant...

The latest example came from BMO's strategist Brian Belski, who published a report arguing that the bull market in stocks will continue for another ten years with annual gains of 10.5%.

This is the type of report that appears at market peaks. Despite the fact that it was dressed up in statistics and produced by a respectable brokerage house, this isn't a serious piece of research; it is nonsense and anyone who takes it seriously and invests based on its conclusions deserves the losses that will follow."

The above is excerpted from a recent report I produced for my Credit Strategist readers. I wanted to share with you some of my thinking on rapidly coalescing signs that point to growing cracks in the façade of a healthy market... Full Story
