Happy Sunday!

The jobs report was a disappointment last week, and we are all riding the tariff rollercoaster, as the markets do not like the uncertainty. Big surprise, right?

I want to remind you why timing the market isn’t safe. In the chart below, over 19 years, if you missed the top 10 performing days, you’d have half the earnings! And many of the top performing days happened right after the worst performing days. This is why I don’t sell on the dips, and I double down when the markets are full of fear. I go in-depth on market corrections and what I just invested in on this recent dip, in next week’s video.

And all this talk on tariffs, I wish this concept would be completely tabled. It isn’t serving us well today, and it didn’t serve us well in 2018. Below is a quick snapshot of some of the top performing stock during the recovery from that correction. Granted, in 2018, it was directed at China, and today’s tariffs include more countries and has steeper rates.

Sorry for the delay in my newsletter. I’ve been spending a lot more time exercising and playing with the kids. I hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend! 

Thanks,

Brian

👍 The weather is getting nicer out, and we’ve been spending a lot more time outside with the kids. It’s a nice break from all the negative press. Just a reminder to detox from the news as much as you can and get some fresh air.

👍 Something new - I want to connect with all of you in more meaningful way. In next week’s video I give some directions to make a comment in the video if you want to participate in a virtual happy hour. I’ll see how it goes. I may do a separate one just for those of you on the newsletter. Let me know (just reply to this email) if you are up for something like that. As some of you know, the emails go directly to me, and I respond to all of them.

👍 Here’s the link to my portfolio. Keep in mind I share this for educational purposes. I am not giving any financial advice. I spent about half of my cash holdings on this dip, and I’m waiting for a steeper dips to spend the rest. I outline in next week’s video what I bought into, and why.

In Case You Missed It

I’ve had several people ask where I park my cash reserves when I’m waiting to re-enter the stock market. I outline my two main areas in the video below.
