"You're not really going to only rely on the firm's research, are you?" It was 1966...
What Every Investor Needs in This Type of Market
By Marc Chaikin, founder, Chaikin Analytics
"You're not really going to only rely on the firm's research, are you?"
It was 1966. I had just landed a position as a broker. And at the time, I really did think my own firm's research would be more than enough for me and my clients.
But then, a member of the "old guard" pulled me aside to tell me different...
"Listen, you'll have to learn this on your own. But there's someone I think you should know about."
It might sound like a random piece of advice. But it was actually a life-changing introduction. And it completely transformed my approach to helping investors.
This Wednesday, Marc is stepping forward with the biggest stock warning of his career to date. It all centers around a wave of looming stock crashes he's just detected... that could soon ravage the wealth of those who aren't prepared. This critical update is 100% free for all Chaikin readers – click here for details.
The senior analyst behind 24 different triple-digit winning recommendations (as high as 849%) calls this the single best "buy" opportunity of his lifetime. It could triple quickly... and return 1,500% or more over the long term. And it's the cornerstone of his dead-simple strategy for BEATING today's sky-high inflation. Details here.
It started when my colleague introduced me to George Chestnutt's financial writing. I'm guessing you haven't heard of Chestnutt. But his work was pioneering at the time.
He used math to find the strongest industry groups – and the strongest stocks in those groups.
That made Chestnutt an outsider for sure. Back then, nearly everyone was looking at a smattering of fundamentals. Then, they'd assemble an interesting story around those few bullet points, and that was it.
The best storytellers turned out to be talented brokers. That is, they were talented at getting their clients to buy.
Great for them... not so great for their clients.
The day of that conversation, I realized my mentor was right. I needed more than just stories.
My clients deserved better. Not only that... to be able to really sell, I knew I'd need to have data to back up my claims.
So I did the most reasonable thing... I signed up for Chestnutt's newsletter service.
Chestnutt's work was my way of accessing the best data available at the time. And I knew that I wanted the best data available on my side.
Here's the thing, though. To get the best data, you need to go the extra mile...
Chestnutt was a bit out there compared with most analysts at the time. The guy spent his time meticulously tracking the major industries trading on Wall Street. He did a lot of it by hand. And he did the rest with early calculators.
Those of us who were around back then know that was a monumental task. You'd have to be a little crazy to even pursue it.
I didn't realize where I was headed, back in the '60s – not at first. But once I looked outside my own firm, I started to follow Chestnutt's path. My life's work became collecting data, parsing it, and using it to make evidence-based investing decisions.
I've been very fortunate and successful at it.
Bloomberg built my systems into its world-famous trading terminals. And its main competitor Refinitiv (previously Thomson Reuters) did, too.
I made finding the best data into my life's goal. And just as important, I wanted to help folks by performing the best analysis on it.
I've found it deeply rewarding. And I'm passionate about sharing it. That's because the best data gives you an edge as an investor that nothing else can.
I saw firsthand exactly how important this was after the financial crisis in 2008...
I saw the little guy get creamed by Wall Street. So my focus shifted yet again.
I developed a set of tools for individual investors. They're specifically designed to turn trading and investing into a fair fight for people who aren't Wall Street elites.
Together, this set of tools is called the Power Gauge. And I've poured everything I've learned over my more than 50 years in finance into it.
And the thing is... I'm seeing something unusual in the data today. It's not unprecedented. But it's the kind of market event that has a nasty habit of catching individual investors off guard.
So now, more than ever... you need good data. It's essential in today's market conditions.
That's why I'm putting together a special event later this week. Individual investors who aren't aware of what's going on will be left asking themselves, "What happened?"
I want to make sure you aren't one of the investors who gets left in the dark. So please join me this Wednesday night, March 30, at 8 p.m. Eastern time. Save your spot right here.
Good investing,
Marc Chaikin
Editor's note: On Wednesday, Marc will share an urgent warning with individual investors just like yourself. It's about where the market is today... and more importantly, where the data says it's heading next.
Marc plans to reveal all the details during a special event beginning promptly at 8 p.m. Eastern time. It's FREE to attend for all Chaikin PowerFeed readers.
And everyone who shows up will learn the names of two current opportunities. You'll hear about one popular stock the data says you should avoid at all costs... plus an under-the-radar stock the data says should return triple-digit gains in 2022. Get all the details here.
