"Age of Chaos" Is Entering Warp Speed Back in December 2023, I made a presentation about the “Californication” of America. I warned that Biden would drop out of the presidential race and be replaced by a California Democrat who would spread the state’s ultra-liberal policies across America. (I predicted that candidate would be California Governor Gavin Newsom, not former California Attorney General Kamala Harris. But we indeed ended up with a liberal California Democrat instead of Biden.) I also warned that we were entering an “Age of Chaos” – a time of unprecedented chaos and danger for Americans. That presentation has now been viewed more than 3.2 million times. Folks who tuned in heard the steps I’ve recommended taking to prepare. But none of that compares to the volatility that could happen next week, as the Age of Chaos enters warp speed. You see, this isn’t just about the votes we cast for president. On November 7, the 12 members of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) will meet behind closed doors at the Federal Reserve Board Building in Washington, D.C., to vote on their policy for key interest rates. Right now, markets are expecting a quarter-point cut to follow the half-point cut we got in September. But it could be another half-point cut. Or the Fed could decide to leave rates where they are. That’s three more market-moving variables that will compound uncertainty after the election. In normal times, Fed decisions are big market drivers. But this is coming right after perhaps the most contentious presidential election in modern history. The entire country will be on edge. That could lead to even more severe stock market volatility as these two shocks hit our political and financial systems at once. Stocks could whipsaw violently as investors try to cope with all the uncertainty. And from what I’m hearing, investors are already getting nervous… Earlier this week, a colleague said she recently called her broker for a routine question about her IRA. He immediately asked, “Are you calling me to move your money out of the markets?” He went on to say he’d had a deluge of such calls over recent days due to fears of election chaos. You may be worried about your own nest egg. And that’s only natural. We’re humans, after all. And as humans, we tend to crowdsource our decision-making, especially when we’re facing fear and uncertainty. That’s as true today as it was 200,000 years ago. Don't Let Crowd Behavior Kill Your Portfolio Imagine you and your hunter-gatherer tribe are moving to a place with more fresh water. On your way, you spot dozens of terrified members of another tribe running for their lives with terrified looks in their eyes. It’s a human stampede. Your instincts will tell you to run like the wind along with them. It doesn’t matter if you can’t see a saber-toothed tiger or a rival tribe brandishing their spears. You just know it’s time to run. This crowd instinct is one of the reasons we survived in the wild and became the dominant species on Earth. But the urge to join a stampeding crowd can kill your stock portfolio. The human brain is a marvelous tool for creating art, music, language, and feats of engineering. It’s a terrible tool for investing. That’s why, during my “Day-After Summit” Tuesday night, I laid out an alternative approach to navigating the postelection chaos. It has nothing to do with following your instincts… or with human emotions. Instead, it’s a quantitative system I consider to be the No. 1 tool for anyone looking to turn uncertain macroeconomic, financial, or political events into outsized stock market gains. In backtests, it’s identified 3,500 stocks that have gone on to soar 1,000% or higher. And the greater the volatility, the greater the potential gains. That volatility could be from a bitterly contested election. It could also be from any number of shocks that hit the market as the Age of Chaos plays out. Whether it’s a currency shock… Another supply-chain issue… A new law within the next president’s first 100 days in office… A new war breaking out… Or a powerful new technology transforming the world… If a shock event causes volatility to flare up, this system shows you how to trade it for gains. You can get full details of how it works, and how you can use it to position yourself to profit ahead of Election Day, by watching my broadcast here. To get you started, I’ve included details of one trade you can place right now that I believe will pay off… no matter who’s eventually declared the winner. And if targeting short-term gains using a quantitative system is not your thing, that’s fine, too. Just remember that the worst thing you can do when volatility kicks up is to panic-sell out of your long-term stock holdings. The point is, we could be in for a trying couple of months. But eventually, we’ll have a new president. And markets will return to a more stable footing. You just may need plenty of patience… and a strong stomach… to ride out the churn between now and then.
