The markets told a great story in 2025… but it wasn’t the whole truth.
Stocks looked unstoppable on the surface, hitting record high after record high. Mega cap names raked in mega profits. The Magnificent “Mag 7” alone dominated the S&P 500, driving nearly 42% of its total gains through the first three quarters.
But underneath? Entire sectors slipped into the red, crypto gave back earlier gains, and some of the year’s biggest profit opportunities came from places most traders weren’t even watching.
So, in today’s video, I’m going to break down exactly where buy-and-hold worked… where it failed… and what approach delivered the best (and most consistent) profits—despite one of the most chaotic and misleading trading environments we’ve seen in a long time.
But before we jump in, I want to remind you that Day 2 of my three-day 2026 Live Market Outlook series kicks off at 12 noon ET tomorrow (December 16).
And in this session, I’ll be joined by Rob Roy and Mike Wade as we dive into some of the most powerful (and underused) strategies for the year ahead, including:
👉 How to spot major turning points before the crowd catches on
👉 When to go against the grain using Elliott Wave and volatility signals
👉 The setups contrarian pros rely on in uncertain markets
Now if you were able to attend Day 1, you can just use the same link to join.
But if you weren’t, register here now to unlock all 3 sessions—plus the replay from Day 1.
Let’s get started…
Cheers,
