An “Escape Hatch” During This Bear Market

[The Bleeding Edge]( Editor’s Note: On Saturday, we introduced readers to colleague Imre Gams. Imre is a professional currency trader. And as he showed over the weekend, currency markets are seeing almost unbelievable moves. This week, we’re sharing more currency insights from Imre to show readers how incredible trades are possible outside of stocks, bonds, and digital assets. Read on… --------------------------------------------------------------- An “Escape Hatch” During This Bear Market By Imre Gams [Stephen Hester] Dear Reader, On Monday, October 19, 1987, the Dow crashed 22.6%... To this day, it’s the biggest one-day crash for the Dow in percentage terms. The press dubbed it Black Monday. In 1987, one trader made millions for the firm he worked for, Bankers Trust, on a single trade. And he took in this haul in one of the worst environments ever for stock market investors. But here’s the thing, this trader made that monumental return without touching stocks or bonds. Instead, he turned to a market approximately 32 times larger than the U.S. stock market. Yet, few investors have ever heard about it… An “Escape Hatch” for Bear Markets Hello again. My name is Imre Gams. And as I shared on Saturday, I’m a professional currency trader. As I shared over the weekend, while stocks, bonds and cryptos are struggling, currency traders are cheering. The movements we’ve seen in currency markets—and the trading opportunities—are unlike anything else I’ve seen in my career. But the truth is, most folks have never heard of currency markets… let alone considered trading it. That’s surprising considering the foreign-exchange – or forex – market has daily trading volumes of about $7.4 trillion. Like I mentioned above, that’s 32 times larger than the U.S. stock market. It’s no wonder some of the biggest trades of all time have taken place in forex. These are trades that have netted hundreds of millions of dollars in profit. One famous currency trade even hauled in more than $1 billion. (More on that below…) And there’s something interesting about these forex trading wins that you should know about. Some of these trades took place when stocks were in a bear market, like they are today. That’s because the currency market and the stock market tend to move independently from each other. As you’ll see today, it’s why forex trading is the perfect “escape hatch” for investors sick of losing money in stocks. And that brings me back to the story at the top… Recommended Link [[FREE EVENT] Discover why millionaire trader Jeff Clark is putting his reputation on the line for this unknown analyst]( [image]( While the general public lost over $9 trillion in stocks and options in 2022… Jeff and his fellow beta testers quietly saw the chance to collect gains of $2,239, $1,694, and $3,560 in as little as a day… putting them on track to make 2,248% in a year… Now, he’s on the verge of sharing his biggest breakthrough. [Register for details.]( -- Krieger vs. the Kiwi The trader I mentioned was Andy Krieger, a friend and mentor. The carnage of Black Monday caused investors to flee the U.S. dollar and seek refuge in alternative currencies such as the New Zealand dollar – aka the kiwi. At the time, the kiwi carried a relatively high yield. So, investors kept piling in. And it kept going up versus the U.S. dollar. But my mentor could see a boom-bust scenario developing. He said to himself, “This is a stupid situation. I don’t believe the kiwi should be this strong.” So, he placed a monumental trade against it. His sell orders are rumored to have exceeded the entire money supply of New Zealand. And it paid off… He bet so heavily against it; the kiwi fell 10% in a day. That’s a huge move for a currency. And according to Wall Street lore, New Zealand’s finance minister called Krieger’s boss, telling him to “get off our currency!” Krieger hauled in $300 million for Bankers Trust – an unheard-of win at the time – right around the time that stock market investors were losing their shirts. But even that gain paled in comparison to the one George Soros earned by betting on a falling British pound five years later… Recommended Link [For men and women who are tired of losing money trading stocks]( [Forget CNBC: Watch This Instead]( [image]( In a beta test spanning the past seven months, millionaire trader Jeff Clark discovered a new trading breakthrough that is generating returns of $2,239, $1,694, and $3,560 in as little as a day… Now he’s sharing the blueprint with you – a formula for making money without putting your retirement at risk in today’s market.

At the time, European currencies floated freely against each other. But to encourage trade, it created a managed system to reduce exchange-rate volatility. This meant the British central bank had to artificially prop up the value of the pound to keep up with the strongest currency in Europe, Germany’s deutschmark. This meant raising interest rates to attract capital into the pound. And Soros saw this was causing too much pain for the British economy. And in 1992, he pounced. He bet heavily against the British pound, taking on the Bank of England in the process. He figured the pound would tumble against the German currency if he applied enough pressure. That’s what happened. Following what’s known in Britain as Black Wednesday, the pound fell as much as 30%. Soros banked more than $1 billion on this trade. Uncorrelated Markets Each of these trades happened in completely different conditions. Stocks crashed in epic fashion in 1987. By contrast, 1992 was a relatively good year for stock market investors. And none of it mattered to currency traders. The currency moves they traded didn’t depend on what stocks were doing. That’s why forex is my favorite market to trade. No matter what’s going on with the stock market, there’s always going to be an opportunity in forex. And with everything the world’s central banks are doing right now, it also means this is the best time to trade forex in 15 years… Recommended Link [FORMER $200 MILLION MONEY MANAGER JEFF CLARK REVEALS NEW TRADING BREAKTHROUGH]( [image]( "On Thursday at 8 pm ET, I'm hosting an extended webinar on the biggest breakthrough of my career… And the funny thing is, it has nothing to do with ME or my trading research services… And I'm giving away the first LIVE trade for free to attendees.
