I’m Not Worried About the Fed
The market is much bigger than any one person or any one policy announcement, however important it may be. But there is a better and smarter way to view “Fed days” and to invest…
A Critical Catalyst Has Emerged in the Deglobalization Megatrend
The mass economic exodus by Western companies from Russia is a seismic event that will redirect investment flows and reshape global supply chains for years to come. This exodus is the final etching in the gravestone of “globalization.” As we talked about in Thursday’s Smart Money, what comes next will be its alter ego: deglobalization. This is the world’s newest megatrend, and I expect it to be an incredibly powerful one.
Did the Bear Market Just End?
October's reputation as a bear-market killer is somewhat deserved. But as Eric Fry has said, there are encouraging and discouraging signs on the horizon, so... what’s an investor to do?
This Critical Trend Is Both a Danger and an Opportunity
October is National Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and cyberattacks are no joke. That’s why billions of dollars are spent every year preventing cyberattacks and recovering from them.

Measure This Industry In Trillions, Not Billions
If you’re doing some shopping this weekend, you may want to know that the newest French fashion is not what you might think. But it is a fashion-forward element. In fact, it is the world’s No. 1 element: Hydrogen.
This Earnings Season Might Catch Wall Street Off Guard

The Hardest (Yet Most Important) Thing Investors Should Do Right Now
"Be fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful." 1It’s hard to argue with that statement when it comes from no less than the Oracle of Omaha himself, and one of the most successful investors of all time. And the evidence is clear that the seeds of big future profits are planted in markets exactly like this one…
The Trend Remains Supreme: 2 Stocks to Watch
The market is attempting to make a comeback. We’ve endured enough of the market’s gut punches this year, and now, as we – potentially, hopefully – begin to turn the corner and leave the lowest lows behind, it’s time to make pointed, intelligent investments. So, in this article, you’ll find two stocks I have on my watchlist for 2023 – and beyond.
There Really Are Opportunities in Something 100 Million Years in the Making
Can something as old as dirt (and as dirty as dirt) really be an exciting investment opportunity in this age of breakthrough technologies and ongoing innovations? Well, yes. We clearly can’t live without oil. Demand is expected to increase for 30 more years before alternative energy sources finally begin to take over. And now, thanks to yesterday’s big news, supply is set to shrink even as demand continues to rise. That’s where opportunity comes in… and one reason why related stocks have been on the move.
How to Approach the Fourth Quarter after Its Strong Start
"‘Tis the season to be jolly…" I know. It’s only October, but it seems to get earlier every year. It won’t be long before stores start piping in holiday music to spark some good old-fashioned holiday spending. But from the stock market’s perspective, it already is the season to be jolly. Seems like the market got the memo based on the big rally in the first two days of trading. And with Q4 typically boding well for the stock market, we all want to know.. can this trend continue?

It’s still early to know which companies will ultimately emerge as the biggest EV winners, but in the meantime, we can see the growing demand and rising prices of the “picks and shovels” needed to build the batteries...
Crisis-Proof Your Portfolio with These Key Moves
Times like these are miserable, exhausting… and downright frightening. However, as we have learned over the long span of financial market history, times like these are also the moments that offer outstanding investment opportunities. With that thought in mind, I want to share with you a special issue written by InvestorPlace CEO, Brian Hunt....
Apple’s Big Change Showcases This New Megatrend
The well-established "Made In China" trend is at least slowing, if not reversing. "Assembled in China" appears on fewer Apple products now than it used to, and more of the company’s manufacturing is expected to shift to other countries. Now, this is more than just interesting. It has huge implications for investors…
Don’t Hit “Eject” On Green Hydrogen
Green hydrogen stocks had been making some nice headway during July and August, but the stock market’s summertime progress has been all but wiped out, and speculative stocks like those in the green hydrogen sector have borne the brunt of this decline. But these sorts of speculative stocks have gone on to deliver sizeable gains in the past...
The Trend Is What Matters
It’s been a rough month… in a rough quarter… in a rough year. And the speculation that this week’s Fed’s meeting will deliver another a dramatic rate hike is not helping. As I’ve said before, it’s not that the Fed’s rate hikes are irrelevant; it’s that the market puts too much emphasis on particular one-off meetings or events. The trend is what matters.
When “Fools” Become Wise… Investors Become Rich
“If a fool would persist in his folly, he would be wise,” the British romantic poet William Blake once remarked. Blake’s pithy observation applies equally to technological progress and investment success. In other words, many “foolish” ideas – and investments – become brilliant… eventually. And that time is now.
