invstors need to act cautiously but remain vigilant in monitoring the market landscape for opportunities to pick up high-quality assets at discounted prices. These are difficult environments, but they also coincide with the best opportunities.
I’ve been around the market long enough to know that these ups and downs can still prove to be highly beneficial, time and again I’ve seen people use these windows of opportunities to make millions and set up for retirement, I just don’t know how they did it.
Building a good financial-portfolio is more complex so I would recommend you seek professional support. This way you can get strategies designed to address your unique long-term goals and financial dreams.
@erich kraetz The one effective technique I’m confident nobody admits to using, is staying in touch with an Investment-Adviser. Based on firsthand encounter, I can say for certain their skillsets are topnotch, I’ve raised over $700k since 2017. Just bought my 3rd property for rental. Credit to INGRID CECILIA RAAD.. my Investment-Adviser
@alex young congrats. this is huge! mind sharing info on the coach that assists you? cos i’ve got a bunch of stocks that keeps tanking and don’t know if its best to just dump amidst ongoing inflation
@lawerence miller She has since provided entry and exit points on the securities I focus on. You can look her up online if you care supervision.
Recessions are where millionaires are created. I feel for the older generation, but if you are young or middle age, you should do everything possible to double and triple your Investments.
I agree with you. I overheard someone talking about how a couple made about $150k in profit during this red season; Although it’s a risky feat except you’re being guided by a pro or you are one yourself.
Flynn Chasin I will be retiring in two years and I have a goal of doing that with $1M. How can I reach out to your guide?
I would never take advice online but i curiously looked this person up and reached out to her for assistance. she seems proficient and experienced.
my financial profile while leveraging preexisting financial relationships. This is a great way to build toward higher lines of personal and business credit. Thank you, Lex!
The most important thing that should be on everyone mind currently should be to invest in different sources of income that doesn’t depend on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the word. This is still a good time to invest in various stocks, Gold, silver and digital currencies
I agree with you. I overheard someone talking about how a couple made about $150k in profit during this red season; Although it’s a risky feat except you’re being guided by a pro or you are one yourself.
@alex young
True, the idea of a portfolio-coach used to sound generic, but a new study by investopedia actually found that demand for portfolio-coaches sky-rocketed by over 41.8% since the pandemic and based on firsthand encounters, I can say for certain their skillsets are topnotch, I’ve raised over $700k from an initially stagnant reserve of $150K all within 14months.
@erich kraetz I will be retiring in two years and I have a goal of doing that with 500k. How can I reach out to your guide?
@joesph cu Search and connect with Eileen Ruth Sparks . She’s a verified CFP and she helped me see that returns can be made in both bull and bear markets. She covers things like investing, insurance, making sure retirement is well funded and looking at ways to have a volatility buffer for investment risk, lots of things like that.
If I’ve learned anything over the past 2 years, it’s that life isn’t just about money, but money is an important part of life. It impacts every aspect of our lives, from where we live, to deciding to start a family & to retirement. When I got my first paycheck, I knew I had to invest. I didn’t think a few hundred dollars a month would add up. But it is. From 2020 to date, I have made around $600,000.
You are speaking from your heart and experience and touching directly to hearts and minds. I keep wondering how one could be this successful. I have always been selfish to myself always thinking about others, how they could get better than l’m and still not working on myself. I’m scrambling for a safe place to invest my savings of approximately $46,000
in my opinion, the impact of the rise or fall of the U.S. dollar on investments is multi-faceted but learning how to grow your money has never been easier than now that you can explore and experience a truly diverse marketplace passively by using a well-performing portfolio-advisor
I agree, having a portfolio-advisor for investing is genius! Not long ago amidst the pandemic crash in March 2020, I was really having inveesting nightmare prior touching base with a license portfolio-advisor. In a nutshell, i’ve accrued over $550k with the help of my advisor from an initial $120k investment thus far.
@Jeanine willett The stock market is down 20% this year. Keeping my money in bank could be no good but investing is riskier, I wish to find better value deals as asset prices keep decreasing but lack the skillset, mind if I look up your advisor? I admit this is the only way for amateurs like myself.
Having an investment advisor is the best way to go. Based on a direct encounter with a CFP named HEATHER ANN CHRISTENSEN, I can say with certainty that their skills are excellent. She is one of the highest rated stock-advisors with a good track record. You can search her up using her full name
As an elder millennial, one of the few advantages is having lived through the Great Recession. My advice. Reduce unnecessary expenses, increase your savings by investing in financial markets and do not sell. One thing I know for sure is that diversifying your income can help insulate you from much of the craziness going on in the world.
True….. I’m thinking of investing in stocks or digital assets to grow my money for the first time, but I lack the in-depth knowledge and mental toughness to deal with these recurring market conditions. please any advice or pointer on how to outperform the market producing good returns
It just takes a good mindset and nerves of steel. I was deeply invested in 2017/2018 in a well-diversified portfolio of stocks and digital assets that grew 4x with capitalization, venturing is not necessarily just about funds but also to be well informed. It’s a long term plan for me so I invest and reinvest
Dividends are what got me into investing in the stock market. The thing to me is, if you invest and have other income outside of dividends then you will be able to live off dividends without selling. Which means you can pass that on to your kids which will give them a leg up in life. Have over $600K in my portfolio as I bought a lot of dividend stocks before, I’m buying more now, and I will buy more when it drops further.
@kaitlynmatthew6380 Autumn really seems to know her stuff. I found her online-page, read through her resume, educational background, qualifications and it was really impressive. She is a fiduciary who will act in my best interest
how ?
Buying a stock is easy, but buying the right stock without a time-tested strategy is incredibly hard. Hence what are the best stocks to buy now or put on a watchlist? I’ve been trying to grow my portfolio of $260K for sometime now, my major challenge is not knowing the best entry and exit strategie;s … I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.
The market is volatile at this time, hence i will suggest you get yourself a financial-advisor that can provide you with entry and exit points on the shares/ETF you focus on.
@Finest Bear Hug I agree , I assumed I had a hang of the market at first, I gained $50k one year and I was super elated, not until I stumbled upon a portfolio-adviser whose been guiding me since the market’s been sham after the pandemic, to my utmost surprise I netted a whooping $280K during this dip, that made it clear there’s more to the market that we avg joes don’t know
@Jeffrey Hulkman that’s impressive!, I could really use the expertise of this advisors , my portfolio has been down bad….who’s the person guiding you.
@Cindy Hull I am guided by Wendy Helene Bennett. I found her on a CNBC interview where she was featured and reached out to her. She has since provided entry and exit points on the securities I focus on. You can look her up online if you care for supervision.
@Jeffrey Hulkman This recommendation literally came at the right time, I’m down by $7k in stocks this week alone.. its crazy! I just looked up Wendy online and researched her accreditation. She seem very proficient, I wrote her detailing my Fin-market goals and scheduled a call.
*Invest in stocks is a great way to invest your money. The team is constantly checking the market for changes and make sure that you are always informed about the best time to invest. As a result, I have made more money than ever before, and I don’t have to manage my portfolio on my own! Invest in stocks, it’s worth it!*
That’s great! may I ask who’s your portfolio manager?
I’ve honestly been considering going the route of an advisor, this current market is no jokes for the average retail investor, but do these advisors really make any notable changes to a portfolio or am I better off on my own.?
@William David Unless you intend to buy and hold stocks for a decade, cos I don’t see a reason not to, I’ve been investing closely with an investment adviser for the past 2years and so far I’ve pulled over $850K in net gains and I’m not worried at all about where we’re heading 2023 because I know I’m in good hands.
@Alexia sarah My adviser is *”Juanita Renee Hayes”* You can easily look her up. She has years of financial market experience and she is also FINRA & SEC verifiable
@Alexia sarah you can search her name on Google
I appreciate your approach to teaching.. To my understanding this just proves how much we need an edge as investors because playing the market like everyone else just isn’t good enough, we just need to hold onto our hopes and wait to see how things turn out because market movements are almost always unpredictable. In my portfolio, I’m noticing more red than green.
As with an my big financial decision,it’s important to keep your guard’s up for economic risks.
However, smart planning, time management and seeking advise from a financial adviser can help keep you and your money safe.
@Stella Adams Yes i agree and right now the markets are going berserk right now. This is the best time to watch them, get to know them better, and strike when the opportunity presents itself. I learned that from my mentor, ’CLAUDIA TRINIDAD RIVAS’ she’s seen dozens of market cycles over the past few decades, and she has a feel for how they move, why they move, and what comes next.
@jake gowon Uncertainty… it took me 5 years to stop trying to predict what bout to happen in market based on charts studying, cause you never know. not having a mentor cost me 5 years of pain I learn to go we’re the market is wanting to go and keep it simple with discipline.
@Anna Bells
It’s possible to statistically measure whether some decisions were wise. But in the real world, day to day, we simply don’t. It’s too hard. We prefer simple stories, which are easy but often devilishly misleading. the mentor i’m working with, made me know there is no faster way to feel rich than to spend lots of money on really nice stocks. It’s really that simple.”
@jake gowon Claudia really seems to know her stuff. I found her online-page, read through her resume, educational background, qualifications and it was really impressive. She is a fiduciary who will act in my best interest. So, I booked a session with her>>
Investing is a way to set aside money while you are busy with life and have that money work for you so that you can fully reap the rewards of your labor in the future. Invest wisely.
What is the possibility of making decent returns for short term investing? I’ve been reading success stories of people that make a total return of upto $75,000 monthly profit from their investments and I’d really love to know how to go about investing to make huge 5figure returns monthly
The best way to make money is to use the nearest opportunities, this is one
There is an opportunity for newbies to capitalize on, It’s quite a shame people can’t see this, tradlng is everything right now.
Johnson Demidov’s daily signals. ✅✅✅✅✅✅
Good thing is that he takes his time to explain and delivers his teaching in the easiest way, I mean it’s amazing you are earning and learning at the same time.
I wasn’t financial free until my 40’s and I’m still in my 40’s, bought my third house already, earn on a monthly through passive income, and got 4 out of 5 goals, just hope it encourages someone that it doesn’t matter if you don’t have any of them right now, you can start TODAY regardless your age INVEST and change your future! Investing in the financial market is a grand choice I made.
I understand that tomorrow isn’t promised to anyone, but investing today is hard for me now because I have no idea of how and where to invest in. I would be happy if you could advise me based on how you went about yours, as I am ready to go the passive income path.
I invest across the top markets but not by myself though. I follow the guidelines of *Nolan Velden Brent.* you might have heard of him. I can correctly say he’s worth he salt as an investment advisor as he diversification skills is top-notch, I say this because I see that in his results as my portfolio grows by averages of 20 to 3O% every month, unlike I can say for my IRA which has just been trudging along. my portfolio just mirrors what he places and not just on some particular industries of my choosing. he gave me that financial freedom I needed
That’s great, your investment advisor must be really good, I have seen testimonies of people using the help of investment advisors in making them more financially stable. Do you mind sharing more info on this person?
search him up on the internet with his name. he’s quite popular for his services as he was recently featured on
CNN. he can work with anyone irrespective of where you’re located.
I just looked up this person out of curiosity on the Google internet; surprisingly, he seems proficient. I thought this was just some overrated BS, I appreciate this.
I’ve been buying some stocks since the beginning of the year, but nothing substantial. Why am I being so indifferent to this? However, people in the same profession are earning six figures on articles, which inspires me to strive to be the first person in my polygamous family to earn a million dollars. I am well aware that working harder to earn more money is costly.
You’re not doing anything wrong; you simply lack the expertise to capitalize in a down market. Professionals with extensive expertise who must have witnessed the 2008 crisis are the only ones who can profit significantly during turbulent times like this.
This was brilliantly put together. I’ve been following your videos for months now and with professional help, I’m making outstanding progress with my money decisions.
I live paycheck to paycheck and I’m looking to have all that changed this year, as I want to have money work for me instead. Will you be kind to share your process?
For me Beatrice as someone who has lived through the 9-5, what comes to mind first is the safety of my money, and my fiduciary, Herman Jonas has made sure of this and even going on to make me returns since I got into Fx and the Stock market. Here,

That idea is applicable in all aspects of life. With experienced hands, you generally, get things done more efficiently. Smart people know this already.
My spouse and I are adding a variety of stocks/ETF to my present holdings for the long term, We’ve set aside $250k to start following inflation-indexed bonds and stocks of companies with solid cash flows, I believe it is a good time to capitalize on the market for long-term gains, but it wouldn’t hurt to know means of actualizing short term profit..
lnvestors should be cautious about their exposure and be wary of new buys, especially during inflation. Such high yields in this recession is only possible under the supervision of a professional or trusted advsor..
@Clifton Dippolito .that’s impressive!, I could really use the expertise of this advisors , my portfolio has been down bad….who’s the person guiding you..
@Clifton Dippolito Thank you for this Pointer. It was easy to find your handler, She seems very proficient and flexible. I booked a call session with her.
I am new to the stock market. Every stock that I bought so far, I was out of luck because I bought them when they were expensive. I feel I missed out on all the stock opportunities so far for the tech stocks.I believe having 150K yearly income would be a good investment so I want to plug all my savings into the stock market. I know this sounds a bit dull but I would like to know if I should learn investing or let somebody else (more capable like a FA) do it for me? Please share your thoughts. I am kind of tired of searching for a good stock to buy and losing all the good opportunities
Making money from stocks look deceptively easy. The reality is that stock market is one of the toughest mental games in the world, hence i will suggest you get yourself a financial-advisor that can provide you with entry and exit points on the shares you focus on…..
wow ,that’s stirring! Do you mind connecting me to your advisor please. I desperately need one to diversified my portfolio.
Having a counselor is essential for portfolio diversification. My advisor is Loreen Michelle Gilbert who is easily searchable and has extensive knowledge of the financial markets
@Eric Bur-rows Found her on the web, I wrote her an email and scheduled a call, hopefully she responds, I plan to start 2023 on a woodnote financially.
Year-over-year inflation stood at 6.5% in December 2022—the lowest that figure has been in more than a year. Inflation was in line with what economists expected and gave many of them a reason to believe that the peak of inflation may be behind us. I have approximately $150k stagnant in my port_folio that needs growth. What is the best way to take advantage of this downturn?
you’re right! The current market might give opportunities to maximize profit within a short term, but in order to execute such strategy , you must be a skilled practitioner
I agree , that’s the more reason I prefer my day to day invt decisions being guided by a invt-coach, seeing that their entire skillset is built around going long and short at the same time both employing risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying off risk as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, coupled with the exclusive information/analysis they have, it’s near impossible to not out-perform, been using a invt-coach for over 2years+ and I’ve netted over 2.8million
@Belinda Rupp I’ve actually been thinking of reaching a portfolio-adviser, my 401k and stocks been losing everything it’s gained since 2019, mind if I looked-up this one coach you use?
@Raul Romero
The adviser I’m in touch with is ‘Nolan Velden Brent, he works with Merrill, Pierce, Smith incorporated and interviewed on CNBC Television. You can use something else. for me his strategy works hence my result. he provides entry and exit point for the securities I focus on.
@Belinda Rupp I just Googled his name and his website came up right away. It looks interesting so far. I’m going to book a call with him and let you know how it goes. Thanks
Several of the biggest market experts have been voicing their opinions on exactly how awful they think the next downturn would be, and how far equities may have to go, as recession draws closer and inflation continues well above the Fed’s 2% objective. I’m trying to build a portfolio of at least $850k by the time I’m 60, therefore I need suggestions on what investments to make.
There are many other interesting stocks in many industries that you might follow. You don’t have to act on every forecast, so I’ll suggest that you work with a financial advisor who can help you choose the best times to purchase and sell the shares or ETFs you want to acquire.
Having an investment advisor is the best way to go. Based on a direct encounter with a CFP named Deborah Sue Bohn, I can say with certainty that their skills are excellent. She helped raise over $580,000 in 18 months from an initially stagnant portfolio of $150,000.
please how can i find the lady you mentioned’?
Deborah really seems to know her stuff. I found her online-page, read through her resume, educational background, qualifications and it was really impressive. She is a fiduciary who will act in my best interest. So, I booked a session with her.
To my understanding this just proves how much we need an edge as investors because playing the market like everyone else just isn’t good enough. I’ve been quite unsure about investing in this current market and at the same time I feel it’s the best time to get started on the market, what are your thoughts?
Since the crash, I’ve been in the red. I’m playing the long term game, so I’m not too worried but Jim Cramer mentioned there are still a lot of great opportunities, though stocks has been down a lot. I also heard news of a guy that made $250k from about $110k since the crash and I would really look to know how to go about this.
There are a lot of strategies to make tongue wetting profit especially in a down market, but such sophisticated trades can only be carried out by proper market experts
@Zahair O’Brian That’s impressive, my portfolio have been tanking all year, tried learning new strategies to gain in the current market but all of that flew right over head, please would you mind recommending the invt-adviser you’re using?
No doubt, the stock market is definitely the most awkward teenager with the wildest mood swings! I began with a pundit by name “HEATHER ANN CHRISTENSEN’’ Her approach is transparent allowing total ownership and control over my position and fees are very reasonable in comparison with my ROI.
@Joseph Gill I searched her up online and checked out her credentials since I was so intrigued. Top-notch! I emailed her to inquire about accepting new clients.
Everyone has been preaching “buy now, stocks are at a discount” but I’ve been buying stocks at a discount since the beginning of the year and yet the cycle continues with more losses, I know the idea is to hold long term but God I could really give anything to see some growth happen to my portfolio.
Since the crash, I’ve been in the red. I’m playing the long term game, so I’m not too worried but Jim Cramer mentioned there are still a lot of great opportunities, though stocks has been down a lot. I also heard news of a guy that made $250k from about $110k since the crash and I would really look to know how to go about this.
There are actually a lot of ways to make high yields in a crisis, but such trades are best done under the supervision of Financial advisor.
Thats true, I’ve been getting assisted by a FA for almost a year now, I started out with less than $200K and I’m just $19,000 short of half a million in profit.
The stock market is down 20% this year. Keeping my money in bank could be no good but investing is riskier, I wish to find better value deals as asset prices keep decreasing but lack the skillset, mind if I look up your advisor? I admit this is the only way for amateurs like myself.
Helene Claire Johnson, a well-known person in her field, is my advisor. I advise further investigating her credentials.
