How to Beat Wall Street Insiders

You Will Never Know More Than Goldman… [Morning Reckoning] December 26, 2023 [WEBSITE]( | [UNSUBSCRIBE]( How to Beat Wall Street Insiders Baltimore, Maryland December 26, 2023 [Greg Guenthner] GREG GUENTHNER Good Morning Reader, When I was a kid, I could never hit a curveball. The timing on my swing was always off. And when I grew up and became an investor, I ran into the same issue… my timing was always off. Either I’d buy too early or sell too late — missing out on more profits than I’d care to even think about. Once the Great Financial Crisis hit, I knew I had to switch up my strategy. As soon as the market starts to control you… you’ve lost. You’ll miss the curveball every time. I had to stop thinking like an investor. And start thinking like a trader. Because trading isn’t about timeframes, it’s about mindset. When you think of traders, what might come to mind is someone perpetually shackled to their computer, chugging coffee and stressing over every minuscule move in the market. But the most successful traders aren’t the day traders, it’s the traders that only trade what’s right in front of their face. I don’t consider myself a bull, or a bear, I simply take advantage of opportunity when it presents itself. And that could be a long bullish bet, or a short, in-and-out bearish put. I “quit” investing to trade because I enjoy keeping my own schedule, spending time with my family, and (mostly) ignoring the market pundits who are only blathering about stocks to sell ad space for prescription drugs and car insurance. It’s just easier to trade when you tune it all out. Thinking like a trader will not only dramatically improve your returns, it will also free you from the neverending spin-cycle of the financial media, bogus Wall Street analysis, and foggy economic prognostications that never seem to come true.

And information is what most investors crave. Many diligent market watchers — especially newer investors — love to dig into news articles, analyst ratings, and earnings statements. They want to feel informed. After all, the more you know, the better chance you have at picking a winner. Except this isn’t entirely true. Over the long haul, a company will live or die based on its ability to make money and grow. I’m not disputing these facts. But you probably won’t profit from these long-term success stories based on widely-available fundamental research or economic trends. In the world of “investing” you have to compete with sophisticated professional investors who can exploit limitless resources to deliver returns to their clients. You will never be able to discover information about a company that Goldman Sachs doesn’t already know. The connections analysts can exploit and the sheer amount of information they can obtain that a Main Street investor could never sniff is obvious. Plus, the major Wall Street institutions have access to billions of dollars (of course!), armies of quantitative analysts, mathematicians, and virtually unlimited computing power. Stop pretending you can beat these monsters after spending a couple hours Googling stocks. You and I don’t have an edge over these firms. There’s no information we could legally obtain that would tell us something about a specific company someone in a major financial institution’s research department doesn’t already have on file. Instead, think like a trader. And to start thinking — and making money — like a trader, you have to recognize that the market moves in distinct, almost predictable patterns. Your Ticket to “Beating” Wall Street Insiders Prices ebb and flow based on the fundamental forces of supply and demand. Those fundamentals are driven by a whole range of factors, including investor psychology. Charts are a powerful way to reveal what investors are thinking — as well as indicate what their next moves will be. The trick is figuring out how all of those pieces fit together… And know how and when to act. Which is why I developed a system I want to share with you: my system for pinpointing the perfect buying and selling time… and which stocks to pull the trigger on. I look for several different kinds of signals, the most important one is what I call the Cash Line. Without getting too deep into the details, it’s a reliable way to tell when a stock’s price is set to dramatically change direction. It’s essentially the point where greed and the fear of missing out kicks in — when investors watching from the sidelines decide the stock is worth buying. They’ll suddenly start placing buy orders — sending the stock’s price even higher. I’m going to give you access to my trading strategy today, so you can also start thinking like a trader. So for the first time ever… I am launching a custom tailored MEMBERS ONLY CLUB. I’ll teach you my very own system… a system that has allowed me to outperform the S&P 23 to 1 since May. This is a personalized experience that will include a community of elite traders… exclusive content, LIVE training, tailored Q&A, and a live chat open 24/7!

I’ll show you everything you need to know. [LEARN MORE]( In Case You Missed It… Could AI Cause World War III? Sean Ring, Editor [Sean Ring] SEAN RING Dear Reader, Yesterday, I had a rousing conversation with Jim Rickards about the rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI). As you probably know by now, AI and its offshoot Generative Pre-Trained Transformers (GPT) are all the rage. There is one camp that whole-heartedly believes this technology will transform the world and be bigger than the invention of the internet. While Jim sees this potential (and as do I) he wants to caution you… There are things that both you — and Wall Street — might be overlooking when it comes to AI. We’re talking potential to take over critical infrastructure systems… open floodgates… shut down electricity… Start World War III. If you haven’t had a chance to watch the interview yet, click below to check it out. Here’s some of Jim’s biggest points in the interview… How AI Can Destroy Markets There are endless scenarios that can be devised to show how AI can lead to extreme market dysfunctions. Difficulties could arise in foreign exchange markets in addition to stock markets. The Herstatt Bank collapse in 1974 is a good example of that. Market manipulators using AI can reside in the Caribbean, a Mediterranean island or the Congo. The foreign AI attackers could be Iranian, Russian or Chinese. An AI attack on markets could begin in London, New York or the jungles of Asia since they’re all internet-based. A marquee failure could come from a hedge fund or an iconic investment bank. And so on. The point is, it doesn’t matter… Market panics have different triggers, but all end up in the same place. Panic is part of human nature and plays out in the same predictable ways — sell everything, go to cash, move to the sidelines and wait out the storm. A few can profit from that advice, but when everyone makes the same move at the same time the system breaks down rapidly and, in the end, no one can move. Everyone is trapped in the same doom loop. Circuit breakers, trading halts, government happy talk and communication among market participants all help as far as they go. Still, their ability to palliate a panic is dominated by the speed at which panics spread today in the world of AI. The most important thing to remember… AI will grow more powerful in the future and GPT will have more to say… But both are advanced enough today to carry out functions leading to a market crash. What can be done about it? Well… you’ll have to watch our video to find out! Enjoy your weekend and your holiday.
