The market tells you everything to know…
But you need to have the right perspective.
Reading tea leaves and listening to mainstream media is one way to invest… but it’s not the best one.
I’ve been there, I tried.
I got nowhere.
And then, I discovered the 18.6-year real estate cycle that has been driving the economy and the markets for centuries.
It drove markets to their peaks and troughs… and now we’re in the “Eleventh Hour” stage.
Here’s what it means.
Records Everywhere
The “Eleventh Hour” stage is about records. Those who have read my book, The Secret Life of Real Estate and Banking, know what I mean.
Multi-decade and all-time highs across almost every market and asset class.
Like this…
And now we’re seeing this…
US equities hit record high as tech stocks make gains
Wall Street stocks started the week on an upbeat note, climbing to a fresh record high as Big Tech names made strong gains.
The benchmark S&P 500 equity gauge closed up 0.8 per cent, while the tech heavy Nasdaq Composite added almost 1 per cent, slightly trimming an earlier advance.
Apple had added just under 2 per cent by the end of the day, while Microsoft rose 1.3 per cent.
At this stage of the 18.6-year real estate cycle, markets grow, but some companies grow even faster.
They break their own records to become multi-trillion-dollar behemoths.
Here’s the latest one:
Nvidia surpasses Apple to become the 2nd-most-valuable company in the world
Nvidia is now the second-most-valuable company in the world.
The ongoing AI boom has helped catapult Nvidia’s market valuation to $3.014 trillion.
Now bigger than Apple, the AI-chip maker is just behind Microsoft as the world’s biggest company.
Note that the companies that grow the fastest tend to be part of the latest craze. In this case, it’s artificial intelligence (AI).
Yes, the technology that Nvidia’s chips power is important. But the craze about AI drives companies like Nvidia to all-time highs with a force you don’t see often.
And that’s, again, a sign that we are in the “Eleventh Hour” stage.
What’s Next?
Well, it would be easy to say that everything goes up. But it doesn’t.
This is where my knowledge of the 18.6-year real estate cycle meets my own investing experience.
When I wrote about the cycle almost a year ago, I said:
Even though most assets go up during the Eleventh Hour, not everything does…
This is why I never tell investors to just “buy the market.”
You need to be cautious.
Especially when nobody else is.
There is the right way to play the Eleventh Hour… but almost nobody knows about it.
They just pile into the latest hotness – be it crypto, AI-related companies, or other things that they don’t understand but hear about from mainstream media and even their friends.
Don’t do that.
Otherwise, you’ll do what everybody else does.
Which is, lose your shirt when the cycle turns.
But I’ve been forecasting the market for years. It’s allowed me to grow my wealth in an incredible way.
And my mission now is to help regular folks do the same.
My message is still relevant. We’re in one of the most lucrative phases of the cycle.
My readers at The Signal know what to do.
If you’re not a Signal reader, I recommend you pick up a copy of my book, The Secret Life of Real Estate and Banking.
It goes into the history of the prior 11 cycles. And so it makes it easier to see what comes next in this one.
