3 reasons to be a stock market optimist right now

Look, the last thing you need to hear is more doom and gloom... That's why in this quick email, I want to show you why there is a lot of opportunity in the stock market now if you know where to look. I know it may sound crazy... After all, what kind of money can you make in a sideways market? Or, as many of you have pointed out... "It feels like any stock I touch is destined to fail." It's frustrating, I know. Scouring the markets for the perfect stock right now is difficult... And timing the bottom to 'buy the dip' is even more challenging. That's why the biggest opportunity in the market I see right now has nothing to do with buying and selling stock like you're used to... But it can generate extra income every week... no matter what. I'll tell you what I mean in a moment. Because you should know a few things first:  1. The stock market always recovers We all love to forget this first point... Or, we convince ourselves that "this time is different!" On the contrary, since the stock market has existed, it has always recovered. Better yet? Since 1926, there has been a 72% chance that the market will be up in any given year. As CNBC puts it: "That means roughly one out of every four years the market is down. It can (and does) put together strings of down years. But that is not the norm. In fact, the opposite is true. More than half the time (57%), the S&P posts gains of 10% or more." And most rallies happen by the end of the year! Now look, I'm not saying that we're about to enter 'bull' mode or that you shouldn't be cautious... But if you're able to wait a few months or years... This market will surely recover. What if you don't have years to wait for the stock market to go back up? [Don't worry; there's a simple way to generate extra income from your portfolio in as little as a week.]( And this easy strategy can work no matter what the market is doing. Last year we enjoyed a 95% success rate with this strategy, and MarketWatch called it a "...low-risk way to boost your retirement income..." Keep an eye on your inbox, I'll be sharing more details this afternoon. And here's how new possibilities can start opening up for you...  2. Now is the best time to find good companies This Nassim Taleb quote from his book Anti-Fragile comes to mind: "Difficulty is what wakes up the genius." You see, when the markets are in rough shape, we get to see what companies are truly made out of. Can their management withstand the pressure? Are their financials in good shape? Etc. And many overlooked stocks can suddenly become screaming buys... Because there's a big difference between surviving market turmoil and thriving during it. Take Main Street Capital (MAIN), for example. Last week, this top-tier business development company (BDC) announced an increase in the monthly dividends the company will pay in the fourth quarter. This is their third half-cent increase since the beginning of 2020. And to top it off, Main Street Capital also pays supplemental dividends when its profits allow, and a $0.10 bonus dividend will be paid in September! MAIN is an excellent example of an Anti-Fragile company: But if you look closely... You'll notice that up until mid-July, MAIN stock was sinking. This brings me to my third and final reason, which is also the most important one...  3. You can accelerate your income faster You see, a dip in share prices doesn't matter much if you're focused on income-generating strategies... In fact... A dip just means you can buy more shares and collect more income faster! Because income is what matters most in trying times like these. The financial and stock market world is geared to the wants and wishes of Wall Street and the large money they advise... These are folks that make $100,000s on their trades and can live off capital gains comfortably without worrying about outliving their retirement savings... But if that's not you... Then generating more income from your investments is the best advice I could ever give. Collecting enough investment income to cover your bills, needs, and wants in retirement... Even if inflation remains high for months or years to come! It may sound unrealistic... But that's exactly what's possible with the strategy I'm about to release. I'll be sharing more details this afternoon - keep your eyes on your inbox. I hope this email has given you something positive to chew on. The financial news can be stressful nowadays, not to mention the anxiety of seeing negative returns in your portfolio. So remember — don't lose hope! There is plenty of opportunity lurking if you know where to look. And in the next few days... [I'll let you in on more income-generating secrets to use now.]( Talk soon.
