Make no mistake… The market is off to an ugly start this year…
Since the start of the year, the Dow is down 4.3%, the S&P 500 is down 6.3%, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq is down 10.2%.
Cryptos are getting hammered, too – with bitcoin and Ethereum plunging 16.3% and 22.7%, respectively, since January 1.
Even the once high-flying biotech sector is down more than 40% from its February 2021 high… the largest drawdown since 2015–16.
Many analysts blame red-hot inflation for the volatility we’re seeing across asset classes… And they’re likely right. Inflation is at a 40-year high.
And while it’s always hard to stomach pullbacks like these… we see them as great opportunities to buy blue-chip stocks and world-class cryptos at incredible discounts.
The stock market has a long track record of rebounding strongly after corrections. Just look back to the pandemic outbreak in March 2020… when the S&P 500 crashed as much as 34%. Even with the current pullback this month, it’s still up 100% since then.
And we know after each major crash, bitcoin and Ethereum have bounced back to new all-time highs. We expect that to be the case again.
Sure, it’s hard to see your portfolio take a hit in the short term… but at PBRG, we take a long-term view of wealth building. That’s how we’ve helped so many of our subscribers make life-changing gains.
In the meantime, if you want some ideas to deal with current market conditions, consider Daily analyst Grant Wasylik’s “Bridesmaid” and “go low or go home” strategies.
They’ll put you in a position to profit in 2022 and beyond…
