Here we go .

Let me break down a classic market move that plays out again and again:

1. Tariff or other bad news announcement hits the news media.
2. Market drops suddenly, due to profits being taken from previous gains.
3. Retail investors get scared, see the 'red' and sell.
4. Big institutions? They buy back in low thanks to what you sold.

Here’s the kicker: these announcements often come right when the market is already due for a correction. Coincidence? I don’t think so.

It’s like a built-in discount sale for those who know what to look for. Kind of like when you wait until Black Friday or Boxing Day for the big sales on your favourite appliances, furniture or gadgets. Just in a different time frame.

So while the headlines want you panicked, the pros are calmly repositioning their portfolios and buying quality assets at a discount.

The media uses fear to drive actions. But you? You can use it to drive results.

In the previous email I said, "buy low, sell high" is the classic wisdom. And it is.

Well another piece of classic wisdom is, "Be fearful when others are greedy and be greedy when others are fearful." That one is from Warren Buffet himself. And I swear, if you only used that piece of wisdom alone, you'd be a much better investor and trader, times 100!

In looking at charts and markets - every day - like this one, for over the last 5 years, I can humbly say that the market definitely moves in patterns. Almost like its pre-programmed by an algorithm or computer... (Hmmmm... lol.) See below. These kind of dips are part of a longer, larger timeline. Though this chart image below can be applied to days, hours, minutes, or even months. The market always moves in patterns.

The other golden nugget I want to share with you, something I learned early on in my training as a financial advisor was, I could not find a 15 year period in time where there was not an increase in the markets overall. See below.

What this means is, in every 15 years, the market always has growth! Despite recessions, crashes, major world events, etc. those included. The market still grows in every 15 year scenario I measured. That's truly incredible.

What does that mean for you? Well that means, you can invest confidently in 15 year cycles. You can rest easy if your investment goals and plan are long term. You can take comfort that the world is not ending and never will and that there's 'nothing new under the sun' to quote the world's best selling book of all time.

Oh and by the way, that last chart is over 85 years old - since the 1930's. Go ahead and zoom in to see for yourself. Or, if you'd like a more full PDF for you to download and examine deeply, click here.
