Don't Let This Week's Fed Decision Distract from a Much Bigger Economic Reckoning

This week is all about the Fed. But many don't realize that there is another economic shift happening behind the scenes, one that is unlike anything Louis Navellier has seen in his four decades on Wall Street. He calls it The Economic Singularity. We're talking about an economic transformation so profound it could create explosive wealth for those who understand it. But for those that don't, it could bring devastating financial consequences.

Historical Stock Market Forecast

May Historical Biases

  • Upside bias first half of May.

  • Downside bias in 2nd half of May.

  • Mid to late May can often be filled with long term swing trade entry opportunities that can last into the summer time.

May Historical Briefing

Earnings season. Typically, a 50/50 month. The 1st half of the month, stocks typically rise as we finish up earnings. The 2nd half of the month expect heavy profit taking.

Seasonal Briefing (May 1 - October 1)

Summertime season: In this season, movements can become shallow in either direction. Trade-able movements may become less frequent and we often see swing trades end closer to the 1-week mark than “good swing trades” of 1-3 weeks. There can be periods of flat during this period where no obvious trades are available.
