Titanic Syndrome: Prepare Now Earlier this week I wrote to you about the extremely rare bearish pattern I spotted. It's called "Titanic Syndrome"... And it's only appeared 10 times in the past 40 years. This tells me we may see several more weeks of choppy markets. And I'm not the only one saying this... Many other smart analysts stepped forward this week with big warnings. As its name indicates, this pattern may be disastrous for the equity markets. The last time it flashed was back in December 2019... Two months later, stocks crashed 34%. Do I think an even bigger crash than we've seen is looming? Not necessarily... But I do want to share one strategy that worked extremely well in the weeks after that last appearance of the Titanic syndrome. Because it's one of the best ways to use this high volatility to your advantage. It comes from former hedge fund manager and volatility expert Greg Diamond, who works with our friends at Stansberry Research. Take the volatile 2020 market, for instance... Greg spotted a bottom in bonds... and went on to recommend a play on the iShares Treasury Bond ETF, locking in a 168% gain in 28 days: 
He did the same a month later, booking a 122% gain on the same ticker – this time in just 15 days:  And then in early March, when the market saw the fastest correction ever... He spotted some major moves in the financial sector, and booked a 257% gain on the Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund – in just 6 days:  This is something Greg's done over and over again throughout his 20-year career, both as a professional money manager, and now writing for Stansberry. During Trump's first term, for instance, marked by some of the most extreme volatility I've lived through... Greg found 17 different ways to double your money, in as little as 24 hours. Meaning, if this volatility continues in the coming weeks (as I expect it will), or we see a huge crash like we saw following the last appearance of the Titanic syndrome (and we might)... Greg's new warning is something you should take seriously. Regards, Marc Chaikin Founder, Chaikin Analytics P.S. Here's a look at all the doubles that Greg has booked just since 2018: 100% in 17 days on the iShares Russell 2000 Fund 168% in 9 days on Advanced Micro Devices 197% in 19 days on Caterpillar 116% in 35 days on the VanEck Semiconductor Fund 159% in 41 days on Nvidia 101% in 24 hours on Advanced Micro Devices 127% in 15 days on Caterpillar 180% in 49 days on FedEx 138% in 10 days on the ProShares UltraPro QQQ Fund 104% in 12 days on Advanced Micro Devices 167% in 34 days on the SPDR S&P 500 Fund 257% in 6 days on the Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund 345% in 19 days on the VanEck Gold Miners Fund 110% in 9 days on Tesla 107% in 8 days on SPDR Gold Shares 166% in 13 days on the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond Fund 150% in 16 days on Advanced Micro Devices 123% in 14 days on the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond Fund 105% in 6 days on Advanced Micro Devices 197% in 13 days on Tesla 329% in 16 days on the VanEck Gold Miners Fund 111% in 5 days on the VanEck Semiconductor Fund 100% in 2 days on the ProShares UltraPro QQQ Fund 171% in 43 days on the VanEck Gold Miners Fund 137% in 20 days on the SPDR S&P 500 Fund 180% in 11 days on the SPDR S&P 500 Fund 108% in 7 days on Advanced Micro Devices 101% in 5 days on FedEx 168% in 28 days on the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond Fund 100% in 5 days on the ProShares UltraPro Dow30 So don't be phased by this volatility – embrace it. Here's Greg's full playbook for 2025. |
