BREAKING: Recession News

REVEALED: Best Investment During Inflation

HOW TO INVEST IN GOLD: Gold IRA Investing


The possibility of a recession is always on the minds of investors, and for good reason. Recessions can have a significant impact on the economy, job security, and investment portfolios. Recent reports indicating a slowing global economy have raised fears of a potential recession. This is leading investors to prepare for the possibility by turning to exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to balance risk and optimize returns.

There are several signs that suggest a potential economic slowdown. One of the key indicators is the yield curve, which the Federal Reserve tracks closely. The yield curve is a graph showing the relationship between short-term and long-term interest rates. The curve has inverted, meaning the yield on longer-term bonds is lower than those with shorter terms. This unusual occurrence often predicts an economic slowdown, if not a recession, within the next year or so.

Investors are also closely watching the ongoing trade disputes between the US and China. Tensions between the two countries continue to rise, and each new tariff and threat of retaliation further escalates the conflict. If the dispute continues, it could have a significant impact on global supply chains and the overall economy.

ETF investors are looking for ways to prepare for the possibility of an economic downturn while remaining profitable. One strategy is to diversify their holdings across multiple markets and asset classes, such as bonds, commodities, and currencies. This can help offset volatility in any one market, reducing overall portfolio risk.

Another approach is to look for ETFs that invest in companies that have a history of performing well during economic downturns. These companies often have strong cash reserves, low debt levels, and a history of maintaining profits during slow periods.

Some investors may also choose to take a more defensive position by investing in low-risk ETFs such as those that track the bond market. These ETFs can provide a stable return while also reducing risk during times of economic uncertainty.

In conclusion, the possibility of a recession is always a concern for investors, but it is also an opportunity to prepare for potential market stress. ETFs can provide a way to balance risk, diversify exposure, and optimize returns. With careful planning and diversification, investors can position themselves for success, even in the most challenging market conditions.

    I think we should invest in tokens rather than ETH or BTC. I see that the FIWA of THE MERA-DeFi Warrior and other tokens are still stable at the moment

    Close to the margin and zero risk management factored reserve will be good for mental health and better sanguity thought processes.

    ETF's
    Flight to quality direction is US Treasuries until 2028.

    With inflation running at a four-decade high, a Recession is now the ‘most likely outcome for the economy. How can I grow my portfolio to outpace inflation and maintain a successful long-term strategy? I have been reading of investors making about $250k profit in this current crashing market, and I need ideas on how to achieve similar profits.

  5. Rob Evans

    If China takes Taiwan, the US is done since TW has all of our chips so nothing gets manufactured in the US without them.

    Nice content, Starting early is the best way of getting ahead to build wealth, investing remains a priority. Already making 85% profit from my current investment with a professional broker, Judith Callen.

  8. Patrick Gilbert

    Success Depends on the action or step you take to achieve it. Show me a man who has no investments and I'll tell you how soon he'll be broke. Investment is to build a safe paradise for the Future..

  9. bset days678

    The gdp numbers aren't lying; we are technically in a soft recession. I was also shocked to see the market shooting up today. And I agree, if the market is green tomorrow I will also be pleasantly surprised and start looking for Elvis, MJ and Prince. LOL

  10. Ralph Mikovic

    Can you make a video explaining how beginners can make huge profit within a short period of time? I mean i was at a seminar and the host spoke about making well over $880,000 within 4months of investing $150,000 i just need to know how

    What's that based on, inflation being the norm ?

  16. Donald Jason

    When you invest you're buying a day you don't have to work

    Bull market riches are reserved for the investors who continue to buy stocks (individual, funds or ETFs) even while the market is collapsing around them. Being able to ignore the doomsday pessimism around the markets & not lose your sh*t is a pre-req to those future fortunes.

  18. Moore Shirley

    When it comes to trading and becoming a successful crypto investor, motivation gets you started, good habits, determination and commitment keeps you going! It's not always easy to do what's not popular, but that's where you make your money. Buy the dip that look bad to less careful investors and hang on until their real value is recognized. No one becomes successful overnight. They put in background work but we tend to see the finished part

  19. Allan Russell

    A crash and bullish market provides equal high-yield potential, it's all about information and strategy application, I've seen folks make huge 7figure profit in a crashing market and pull it off much easily in a bull market , Unequivocally the crash is getting somebody somewhere rich

  20. Trends2morrow

    Recession has already begun….let's be real.

  21. Double Slit

    BS. China is not going into Taiwan in 2023. Get a real geopolitical strategist on your show.

  22. Double Slit

    Yeah, the short interest on SNAP is <5%. So this is telling me there’s something fundamentally wrong with this stock. I’d love to get in on the bottom but I just don’t know that we’ve reached it yet.

  23. David Prestipino

    SafeMoon Inu crypto is rising and Will pump for a while

  24. navketan1965

    Sir, My strategy is based on end of day closing prices of forex(multiple pairs daily). Standing Orders are entered with the daily trend & placed at distance of 70% of daily ATR(distance D), away from closing price with take profit of 50% & stop loss of 50%(of distance D)–win or lose, no manual interference. Next day new orders are entered based on end of day closing prices. All previous day's unfilled orders are cancelled(but no manual interference with executed but open orders).Based on option probability theory/ Brownian motion, the SYSTEM should make money, if trader SITS & does not fool around using his brain. Your wisdom & thank you

  25. Stansbury Clarice

    You don’t always have to think long term. Investing is as much a tool for shaping your present financial situation as it is for forming your future one. Do you want to buy a BMW next year? Do you want to go on a cruise? Wouldn’t a vacation that was paid for with dividends feel nice?

  26. Dustin Bowie

    Tesla stocks did so well in 2020 and early 2021 but you cannot say same today, Tesla stock is volatile and has suffered several corrections along the way to its current high valuation. And if the stock reacts as it did during the 2020 stock split, waiting may not be the best decision for investors.

  27. phillips wright

  28. Biyu Wang

    I don't think preparation will be of any need here and I'll tell you why…An ex-colleague convinced me into stock trading and investments as profitable alternative sources of income. Unfortunately, I have been down ever since. Next time, I will spend my money on myself first before considering whether I will invest or not.

    My friend in Texas referred me to this channel you make a lot of sense but I do not understand anything until she referred me to a financial counsellor in USA that help me to craft my portfolio and over a year we have been working together making consistent profit enough to get me a new apartment and care for parents.

  32. Maxwell Lisa

    Crypto is bringing a different revolution in the world economy. people who are optimistic investors earn consistently.. others will just sit and watch.

  33. Marc Rover

    He is absolutely right.
    I read countless articles everyday, I gather countless information, and it's all garbage.
    I swear to God, I think if you went on Yahoo Financial, and just did the OPPOSITE of everything it suggested, you'd be absolutely crushing.

  34. Michael Rutjens

    Wealth in theory is invested and split into two main asset classes, the lower yielding but safer bonds and the higher yielding but riskier equities. If you have a good economy investor capitalize on the upside by shifting more of their holdings to equities, if economy is doing bad they shift more their portfolios to bonds to protect on the downside even if in real terms (after inflation) they will not be earning a return.And bond yields is simply a reflection of the price of bonds or demand on bonds based on what ive stated above on where investor prefer to add more weight in placing the investable weight.

  35. Pearl Dan

    Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts! meeting Mr Johnson was the turning point of my life, I earned 5btc within 3 months of trading with him, I don't see failure as the end, keep pushing.
