How to Double Your Money During This “Aftershock”

[Trading With Larry Benedict]( How to Double Your Money During This “Aftershock” By Larry Benedict, editor, Trading With Larry Benedict Of all natural disasters, earthquakes are among the most disruptive. The ground beneath us turns unreliable and frightening. The foundations of weak buildings crumble. And innocent bystanders can easily be caught and trapped in the rubble. Sometimes financial markets experience earthquakes of their own. And as we saw last year, these shockwaves can drop the bottom out of your stomach and wreck your retirement. Especially when you log in to your brokerage and see a bright-red -65%... or more. The worst part is… just like an earthquake, a crash like 2022 often comes with aftershocks that can be as bad (or worse) than the initial drop… I know because I’ve lived through multiple market upsets. I’ve been a professional trader for over 35 years, including several decades on Wall Street. During my career, I managed an $800 million hedge fund. That means I’ve had a front-row seat to the chaos. So to show you what I mean, let’s take a look at the history books… Recommended Link Join Larry Benedict TONIGHT at 8 PM (ET): [Forget “buy and hold” – do this instead (91% success rate)]( [image]( Join Larry Benedict tonight at 8 PM (ET) for details on one of his strategies that has a 91% success rate.

The rise of the internet brought about a wave of companies whose success was linked to the “dot-com” in their names rather than any fundamentals. And when that euphoria ended, it ended hard. The Nasdaq Composite dropped 76.8% by the time it hit rock bottom. Even worse, it took over a decade for the S&P 500 to return to the highs of 2000 and successfully maintain those gains. And in the years following the 2000 crash, many stocks continued to give investors a wild ride. Just look at Cisco (CSCO)… Prior to the crash, this tech darling was a stalwart holding of many portfolios in the ’80s and ’90s. Following the crash, however, CSCO fell over 89%. Take a look… [Image] After that initial crash, shockwaves continued to send this stock flying back and forth… From that low in April 2001, it rallied 83% into May. Many people likely thought they were on the way to making back all their money. [The One Ticker Retirement Plan Over the Shoulder Demo Now Available]( But then the stock fell over 33% into June. It rallied 23% into August… It fell 41% into October… It rallied 87.5% into November… After all of that, the shockwaves began leveling out… slightly. But there were still significant aftershocks in the years that followed. In 2002, Cisco’s stock fell over 62% by October. And then from its low, it rose over 263.9% to its high in January 2004. Again, many investors likely rejoiced, thinking it was all coming back.

CSCO then fell again by nearly 40% over the next two years. Anyone who was blindly buying and holding this stock was surely saying one thing… Get me off this ride! And this kind of volatility in the wake of major market declines is a big part of the reason I’m not a buy-and-hold investor. I’m a trader. And I know a far better – and less stressful – [way to outperform in this kind of environment]( Some people are guessing it might take a decade to recover from 2022’s bear market – like billionaires Stanley Druckenmiller and Ray Dalio.

Right now, I see another of these shockwaves [about to hit the market on March 17](. But I know how to use the coming volatility to double your money – or potentially even more – if you act before that date.
