Here's How I Roughly Doubled the Market's Performance Last Quarter By Pete Carmasino, chief market strategist, Chaikin Analytics By 2011, I was furious with the investment-management business... The S&P 500 Index and Nasdaq Composite Index ripped higher in the late 1990s. Many folks got comfortable with anything and everything going up. But then, the bottom fell out. And from 2000 to 2010, stocks struggled to move higher. This period is now known as the "lost decade." That's because of the abysmal returns... The S&P 500 fell at least 10% every year from 2000 to 2002. It took the market seven years to make a new high. And it was much longer before the index truly broke out. Then, during the financial crisis in 2008, the S&P 500 plunged nearly 40% in a year. It didn't matter which manager you chose. They all kept failing to produce for their clients. And yet, they all collected their fees while delivering almost nothing in return. That didn't sit well with me. So I started to search for a better way to help people... You see, at the time, almost all fund managers relied on fundamentals alone. But that approach wasn't working... After all, does it matter that you've invested in a "good business" if its stock isn't going up? How long do you hold on and tolerate the poor returns? These fund managers' fundamentals-only approach seemed crazy. To me, the investing puzzle for these folks was obviously missing a piece... Recommended Links: Move Your Money Immediately Fifty-year Wall Street legend (and veteran of nine bear markets) Marc Chaikin says that whether you end the year in the green or in the red, all hinges on October 3. And if you want to shield your wealth from the volatility ahead – and potentially even double your portfolio – there's one straightforward move you must make immediately. A Strange Chasm Is Coming to Wall Street... It's already creating millionaires and billionaires at the fastest pace in history. CNBC calls it "the largest wealth creation spree in history." Yet 1 in 3 Americans now fear their financial situation is deteriorating. There's only one way to survive, says the man who predicted the 2008 and 2020 market crashes, but sadly it's already too late for many. Everything you need to know is here. The Power of Sector Rotation I'm talking about reading charts and figuring out the "technicals" of a stock's price. In the mid-1990s, I learned how to do that from books and people I worked with. This approach seemed to work more than it didn't – especially during the dot-com boom. As the years passed, I expanded my skillset with rules like "support" and "resistance" levels. I also learned how to incorporate things like volatility triggers into my approach. I dove into a new world of quantitative investment management. And as I got more comfortable, I learned to tweak my investments when the market's technicals changed. That tinkering ultimately led me to the style of sector rotation. Sector rotation builds off the idea that the market isn't just one big unit. Sometimes, parts of the market zig while others zag. And they're constantly changing – or rotating. Sector rotation seems like common sense. And yet, it's still a relatively new concept in the investment-management business. Even I didn't fully embrace the idea at first... At the start of the lost decade in stocks, I always wanted to know "why" a particular move would happen. It's human nature to try to figure out the underlying reasons. But as tech stocks made big moves in the dot-com era, I realized the "why" isn't always known. Rather, something else seems to matter a heck of a lot more for investors... Price action. The price tells an important story about a market or individual stock. And if you wait until the story ends, it's often too late for you to capitalize on an opportunity. Eventually, I realized that sector rotation relates to business cycles. That helped me to see moves in sectors before anyone else was mentioning them in their daily research. The business cycle spins through four stages – early recovery, full expansion, slowdown, and recession. And along the way, the market's different sectors ebb and flow. Today, we can see all this in practice... Stocks have continued to rally over the past three months. The S&P 500 and tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 Index both hit several new all-time highs in that span. Since the market's early April bottom, the S&P 500 is now up around 34%. And the Nasdaq 100 has gained roughly 44%. The S&P 500 has risen by about 8% in the third quarter alone. The Nasdaq 100 has climbed about 9%. Put simply, the trend is still up. So a lot of investors did well this quarter. But for folks that followed the third-quarter recommendations in my Chaikin Power Portfolio publication... they crushed that performance. In short, Chaikin Power Portfolio leverages sector rotation to find the best areas of the market to target during a particular quarter. The third-quarter iteration of the Chaikin Power Portfolio gained an average of around 16%. That means we've roughly doubled the broad market's return during our holding period. It doesn't get much better than that, folks. And it speaks to the power of our strategy... Looking ahead, a new quarter is here. I've just put together the next iteration of the Chaikin Power Portfolio for it. And tomorrow, I'm releasing the full details behind this quarter's portfolio composition. If you're curious about how this strategy works, Marc Chaikin and I have prepared a special presentation that explains it in detail. In it, we also explain how to get access to Chaikin Power Portfolio – and the brand-new recommendations for this quarter. I strongly recommend you take a look at it before the quarter is fully underway.

This Post-FOMC Sector is Already Paying Out (20% Winner)

Plus, Trump's latest initiative could create a cascade of buy opportunities in healthcare.‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ 

"Pfizer's latest plan to lower drug costs has it on my radar for a trade this week." Karim Rahemtulla, Head Fundamental Tactician, Monument Traders Alliance Ever since the FOMC cut interest rates in September, we've been watching the healthcare sector for trades in The War Room. We've already cashed one winner this week. Yesterday, my colleague Bryan Bottarelli closed a 20% gain on pharma group Eli Lilly and Company (LLY) in less than 30 minutes. The move came after President Trump announced a 100% tariff on branded drugs imported into the U.S., benefitting companies like LLY. Here's what a few War Room members had to say about the LLY trade… While this is a strong start for healthcare stocks post-FOMC, I believe it's just the beginning. I'm currently tracking a long-term trade opportunity on a company that could benefit from a major government health initiative. Here's the breakdown… Yesterday, the White House announced a plan for a direct-to-consumer website for Americans to buy drugs, dubbed TrumpRx. TrumpRx would allow people to pay cash for certain drugs directly from a government website, at a discounted price negotiated by the government. But that's not all. It also announced that pharma group Pfizer (PFE) is planning to lower prices on several of its medications in the U.S. It's unclear how many drugs would be offered. But overall, Pfizer is expected to be the first to announce a plan to lower drug costs after President Trump pushed companies for months to lower prices in the U.S. Albert Bourla, the chief executive of Pfizer, announced the cost-cutting measure at the White House yesterday. He also announced a $70 billion investment on manufacturing medications in the United States. This news could be big for PFE. It's why it's one of my top watchlist stocks for a potential long-term play this week. SPONSORED You WILL buy these four miners [now or when the herd panics] BREAKING: Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” Passed – which guarantees the US will add another $10 trillion to its already massive debt pile.

Go here to learn about the four “Golden Anomaly” miners selling at discounts up to 90% below the value of their gold in the ground Action Plan: With Pfizer's latest announcement to lower drug prices and Trump's new TrumpRx initiative, I believe it's a long-term trade candidate right now. To see exactly how I'm playing this news, I invite you to join Bryan and I in The War Room. Last month, we closed 79% of our trades for winners.

5 Spots Reopened (Payment Failures)

Cards declined overnight — act fast

10/01/2025 First off… welcome to Q4! I hope the rest of 2025 treats you well. Now, yesterday, I told you there was just 1 final seat in Overnight Trader. That was true and you never accepted... But overnight, previous spots that were attempted to be taken, weren't cleared due to transaction failures. Credit cards declined, payments failed, or some other hiccup. That means 5 spots are back on the table. If you thought you missed your chance, this is your second shot. Here's the thing: while Wall Street analysts argue endlessly about interest rates and inflation, they're really just guessing. Meanwhile, the biggest gains aren't coming from forecasts… they're coming from the whiplash moves happening every single day. And that's exactly where Overnight Trader thrives. This isn't about long-term predictions or complicated economic models. It's about taking advantage of short-term price swings with speed and precision. Because when markets lurch higher or lower, opportunities open up fast — and you need a system that knows how to spot them. That's where we come in. Overnight Trader is built to turn volatility into profit potential, with trade alerts that spell out the exact entry and exit points, include risk protection already factored in, and operate on a timeline measured in hours or days, not months. While the so-called "experts" keep telling the public to sit tight and be patient… we've been cashing in on setups like: 359.5% on Apple puts (in and out in 24 hours) 62.2% on Affirm Holdings calls 79.7% on Snowflake puts 58.9% on Kroger calls 58.2% on Workday puts Those numbers aren't hype. They're real trades, delivered in real time, using a strategy built specifically for volatile markets like this one. And here's what you won't hear on TV: Volatility isn't a problem. It's the opportunity. Sharp price swings create inefficiencies, overreactions, and mispriced options. When you know how to spot them (the way we do) you don't need to "wait it out." You just need a process that consistently identifies them and acts. That's exactly what Overnight Trader provides: high-conviction trade alerts (up to 4 per month) with defined entry and exit levels and risk management already built in. Most trades finish in hours, not weeks or months. And right now, you can secure Lifetime Access for $79 (normally $1,747 per year). I'm extending this until the final spots are filled. But I can't promise that more failed payments or card declines will keep seats open. This is your chance to trade smarter, faster, and with more confidence. You in? Join Right Now!

Although there is significant profit potential associated with buying options, there is also the risk of losing one's entire investment in any individual trade. In any option buying approach, it is expected that losing trades will be more numerous than winning trades. The goal is for the average gain to be significantly greater than the average loss so that the bottom line is profitable. Prior to purchase, ensure that you have a broker that allows the trading of options and that you are approved to trade options.
