The Two Biggest Calls for 2018

It’s that time of the year when all self-proclaimed market Gurus make their predictions for next year.

Many of them actually believe that you believe them.  After all, their ego is at stake.

Common formats used include the “Top Ten Forecasts for 2018,” or “Top analysts picks” or “Five stocks you MUST own…” etc. etc.

These Gurus make compelling cases as to why you should follow their lead.  However, most of them are simply “talking their book.”  (Explained in our September Annoying Acronyms Archives HERE)

At Financial$ Matter we like to simplify things (Wall Street’s secret language) so you can easily understand what’s really being said.

We’ve read most of the forecasts promoted by the Fake Stream Media and have condensed a multitude of predictions down to only Two.

At first, you might think our forecasts are generic but we’ll elaborate on them (and remind you of them) as 2018 progresses.

Here they are:

• Volatility goes through the roof. (Expect the markets to “explode higher” with many “flash-crashes” lower).

• Trust in Government will take a nose-bleed drop.

That’s about as simple as you can get…but let’s take a deeper look.

Volatility (#1) is almost always associated with falling markets.  Ask yourself (when the markets go up) have you ever heard anyone say, “Wow! The markets are really volatile on the upside?”

2018 will redefine how you look at Volatility.

Lack of Trust (#2) in Government will present major opportunities and dangers for investors.

The point to emphasize is:  Are you prepared to deal with these two forecasts?

Our January issue of Simplifying Wall Street…in Plain English includes a roadmap of how navigate the craziest of crazy markets.
