Get ready for round-the-clock sell-offs

This week, while most investors were focused on the new jobs report – and the AI-stock sell-off that followed... One of the world's largest stock exchanges made a move to transform the investing landscape in the new year.
 

Dear Reader,

This week, while most investors were focused on the new jobs report – and the AI-stock sell-off that followed...

One of the world's largest stock exchanges made a move to transform the investing landscape in the new year.

And as a result, the current sell-off/volatility is NOTHING compared to what I see coming to U.S. stocks in 2026 .

(Particularly beloved tech stocks.)

As I explain here, we are in the early innings of a bewildering new era in the financial markets...

One that's defined by faster, more frequent sell-offs than ever before.

The reason for this is simple:

Money itself is moving faster than ever before.

Thanks to advancements in AI trading, the New York Stock Exchange is now processing 1.2 trillion buy and sell orders a DAY.

Daily order volume has tripled since 2020.

But after what happened this week... We could see that volume triple all over again – in 2026 alone.

Here's the No. 1 way to prepare.

On Monday, the Nasdaq announced plans to extend its trading hours.

It followed the NYSE's lead... and filed paperwork with the SEC in pursuit of 23-hour trading days.

If both are successful, we will see a Wall Street-wide movement to roll out round-the-clock trading, potentially starting mid-2026.

I'm talking about weekday trading that essentially never stops.

If this goes according to plan, it will be like pouring gasoline on an already blazing fire.

And let me ask you – do you think this nonstop flow of trading will make these lightning-fast sell-offs far better... or far worse in 2026?

The answer is obvious...

Thankfully, my solution is, too.

In an era when AI algorithms may soon be able to trigger round-the-clock crashes...

You must be faster.

Thanks to what I reveal here, for the very first time, you can be.

Be well,
