Manward Press | And we're back! Well, almost. As I write, the S&P and Nasdaq are approaching the peaks they reached in March - back when greed ruled the markets. These days, it's a different story. [Little-Known AI Company Could Be the Next Stock Giant. Click here to see Shah's urgent briefing. ] We're edging back toward the green... but a rocky earnings season, persistent inflation and high interest rates have the average investor still feeling unsettled. When markets opened this morning, CNN's Fear & Greed Index had us at a 38 - firmly in "Fear" territory.

But as Shah has cautioned again and again recently... Investors need to be careful. From Shah's Monday Takeaways: | We're seeing stuff move up, and it looks good... But let's see how things go this week because we've just gotten to somewhere. We haven't gotten anywhere important. We're just working our way back up in a downtrending market to somewhere higher... And whether we can consolidate here in any of the benchmarks and move higher yet remains to be seen. | | | We'll get a better understanding of this market's strength as events unfold this week. Today we saw earnings releases from heavy hitters like Uber (UBER), Anheuser-Busch (BUD) and Airbnb (ABNB). Before the week is out, we'll get a peek at the numbers for Brookfield (BN), Sun Life (SLF), Constellation Energy (CEG), Enbridge (ENB), Costamere (CMRE) and other big names. Will they continue the earnings trends Shah noted here? Where everything looks peachy... except for revenue figures? We will see. But if cost-cutting is the only way for companies to inspire confidence among investors... that's a troubling sign for future earnings cycles. The good news is... we can always bypass the notion of "earnings" entirely by shifting over to crypto. Dip Buyers Unite! Talk about a sector driven by narrative. Crypto falls in and out of favor like high-waisted pants. One day Bitcoin is hitting new all-time highs... And the next, it's plummeting. In short: There's a reason why crypto investors have adopted that HODL (Hold On for Dear Life) mantra. Those who've been willing to stick out the volatility have been rewarded handsomely as the crypto market grew to a size of more than $2 trillion over the past decade. Of course, as you can see by the many peaks and valleys in our chart below... the ride has rarely been smooth.

"This pattern of sharp declines followed by robust recoveries highlights the volatile yet upward trending nature of major cryptocurrencies," he said, "something crypto critics refuse to accept." And really, it's the same across markets of all kinds. The best time to buy is often when share action looks least enticing. Every investor knows they should "buy the dip." Yet too few actually do. That's a point worth remembering in these wild and unpredictable times. Sincerely, Alex Buy This, Not That: Clear Skies Ahead for Airline Stocks?  Travel record after record has been broken.

This Is The New AI Chip Powerhouse  We bet you've never heard of it... but this newly public company is set to become key to Nvidia's seat on the AI throne. And for now... you can get in while it's still cheap. Details here. Buy Crypto… Even When It Feels Like Hell  Robert has made the most money buying crypto when it felt like hell to do so. See why he says now's the time to buy...
