Remember Yesterday - Mike Swanson (10/26/06)

I want you to remember yesterday. I want you to remember the headline sitting on CNNFN.COM before the market opened titled "Days of Big Oil Are Over." Well, right after CNNFN.COM posted that oil traded up $1.50 and by the end of the day had broken out of its downtrend to turn up:


And of course gold stocks broke out of their reverse head-and-shoulders bottom formation and are trending up too! The XAU and HUI are on track for a 10% gain over the next few weeks.

It's amazing how nothing changes. The masses are always wrong at the key turning points, and so is Wall Street. Sentiment for commodities has been awful the past few weeks. When I went to the Toronoto Gold Conference just a few weeks ago no one was really interested in buying new stocks. And CNBC has been calling for a new bear market in oil for weeks too. The CNNFN.COM was just the most blatant negative headline, and it came at the silliest time to call for an end to commodities.

But when everyone is negative that is when you buy and that is exactly what we have been doing the past few weeks. If you've been scared and sitting on the sidelines you need to get out of your chair and do something. Don't be one of those people that sit and watch and buy months later at the top. I'm adding a new mining stock to the Top 10 List today:

Hello. My name is Mike Swanson. I’m the best-selling author of the book Strategic Stock Trading. In a former life I used to run a hedge fund from 2003 to 2006 that generated a return of over 78% during that time frame. In fact it was ranked in the top 35 out of 5,000 hedge funds in 2005.

After I retired from the hedge fund world I setup this website and blog. If you sign up for my free weekly email list below I’ll send you an update on average about once a week on my views of the current stock market trends and share with you actionable investment ideas.

Now I cannot promise you that every stock I find will go up in value. I can’t promise you endless 100% returns as others claim they do and as all the disclaimers say past performance does not necessarily predict future performance and you can lose all of your money in the stock market.

This is reality.

What I can promise you is my dedication to doing the best I can for you.

You see the key to making money over the long-run in the stock market is to manage your risk. Once you sign up to my newsletter I’ll send you a series of educational videos and writings showing you how I use stop-loss orders to cut any potential losses and how I use my two fold formula system that combines fundamental and technical analysis to pick stocks. My goal is to risk one dollar to try to make at least three dollars in my trades by looking for stocks that are priced cheaply on a valuation basis, have high earnings growth, and have excellent chart patterns.

So join my list below and let me help guide you on your journey in the stock market.
