  • These are the situations under which people who remain calm, patient, and take calculated risks can make life-changing money. Volatility is a two-way street. The green candles grow in size as the red candles grow in size.

    Our economy struggling with uncertainties, housing issues, foreclosures, global fluctuations, and pandemic aftermath, causing instability. Rising inflation, sluggish growth, and trade disruptions need urgent attention from all sectors to restore stability and stimulate growth.

    After a massive rally in stocks came and yields collapsed, bond yields and the major averages are higher on Wednesday. How do we deal with such market conditions? Typically my $2m worth of holdings go up 8% then lose 20% right after and the cycle continues.
  • I want to start investing. Is it safe to start now, or should I wait until the end of this possible correction/bear market, despite the economic crisis facing the world, is this the right time to invest in stock,Gold/crypto?
  • You have to consider net debt, the US is owed trillions by other countries. 60% of all foreign reserves are held in US dollars . there are more US dollars outside the US than inside the US . the US dollar represents 90% of all trades in foreign goods world wide . The US dollar is the global reserve currency . The US dollar is valuable just on its own. the US net debt is negligible relative to the real size of the US economy. which is far bigger than specified because many of the companies are held in the Cayman islands . The US , its people , companies and Government own approximately 40% of all the assets in the world. think of Boing , General electric Tesla, etc. When i buy tractor parts from China , i have to pay in US dollars , and I'm Australian . they wont take Chinese yuan , or Aus dollars only US dollars . US dollar and its economy is king . it is incredibly dynamic . Has been since WW2

    Wonderful to see a great video of good content. we all have to win in order to overcome recession and inflation The stock market provides a place where companies raise capital by selling shares or shares to investors. Shares give shareholders voting rights, as well as a residual claim on corporate earnings in the form of capital gains and dividends. But it is better to Invest in Cryptocurrencies because you earn more and better. In my role as a financial planner, I serve clients with different income levels. But my goal is the same for everyone I know. I want to help wealthy families continue to grow wealth while helping young families achieve their financial goals. Your investment creates a safe haven for the future and helps you weather the economic crisis<><
  • Thanks for this was actually insightful, I have been trading profitably for some time and completely agree with everything is saying, She truly knows what she's doing, Trading is not a math problem, You need market sentiment and political awareness because trading is human reaction to world economic events.

    Educating people on America is exactly what WSJ is trying to do here but there's a bigger issue. For more context and for understanding something most people don't search YouTube for “Literally step 1 of 5 on how to fix America” You'll find a treat and a very well researched understanding of the root problems we face. Thank you for being the type of person who educates yourself and values knowledge, you make the world a better place.

    I actually wish the video was longer and slightly more in depth

  • which would mean, by your comparison, that we are headed for 08 like price action on the dollar again... but now we dive into the whole reason the FED was "late". So all other currencies would crash first. That was the real move.
