In a Bear Market, Making Money Means Thinking Outside the Box

The market’s eyes were on the latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) report this past week.

Although inflation eased a bit, the print came in red-hot again.

According to the report, inflation was up 8.2% in September. That’s slightly down from the 8.3% reading in August.

Despite the high reading, the market bounced 2.6% on Thursday. But reality sank in by Friday.

The high CPI report means the Federal Reserve will likely raise rates again next month to tame out-of-control inflation… And when the Fed raises rates, markets tank.

That’s what we saw on Friday when the market erased much of the previous day’s gains on fears of more rate hikes…

And we’ll continue to see market volatility until the Fed pivots and starts cutting rates.

In the meantime, you’ll need to find “outside-the-box” ways to generate income from this bear market.

One of our favorite ways to do this is with collectibles… an asset class that’s outperforming the market and outpacing inflation.

For instance…

A game-worn Michael Jordan jersey sold for a record $10.1 million at Sotheby’s in September. It’s the most expensive piece of game-worn sports memorabilia ever bought at an auction.
A Mickey Mantle rookie baseball card sold for $12.6 million in August. That’s the most ever paid for any sports memorabilia.

So even in this bear market, collectibles are breaking records.
