We\u2019re in a sea of uncertainty. And markets hate uncertainty.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t get caught up in it, though. Don\u2019t let the headlines scare you out of stocks.<\/p>\n<p>What if you\u2019d let the U.S. credit downgrade scare you out of stocks in 2011? Or election uncertainty push you out of the market in 2016?<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019d have missed out on a LOT of money. And today, selling because of the headlines is\u00a0<em>still<\/em>\u00a0a bad idea.<\/p>\n<p>We still have plenty of upside ahead. And the reason for that is simple\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Before we go any further, I need you to do me a quick favor.<\/p>\n<p>Take a look at the chart below. It shows the Nasdaq Composite Index over the past nine years\u2026<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/secure.stansberryresearch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/07\/Oz-67505282_5b4f53a76ccea.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"responsive aligncenter wp-image- size-\" src=\"http:\/\/secure.stansberryresearch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/07\/Oz-67505282_5b4f53a76ccea.png\" alt=\"undefined\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Tell me, why is everyone so worried? Where is the big crash?<\/p>\n<p>The chart goes from less than 2,000 points to more than 7,000. Not bad, right?<\/p>\n<p>You would think that a move like this would bring disciples on board with it\u2026<\/p>\n<p>You would think that thousands of well-intentioned investors would \u201cconfuse genius with a bull market\u201d and start pouring their money into stocks. You would think that we\u2019d have a bitcoin-style frenzy in the stock market by now, right?<\/p>\n<p>Nope. It hasn\u2019t happened.<\/p>\n<p>This has to be the most\u00a0<em>distrusted<\/em>\u00a0bull market in history. Nobody is singing its praises. Everyone is expecting it to end tomorrow. And it might. But I don\u2019t think it will\u2026<\/p>\n<p>I know this is subjective to say, but\u00a0<strong><em>this is not what a major top feels like<\/em><\/strong><em>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve been in the markets full time for 25 years. I have covered stock markets from all over the world, and all kinds of assets. Bonds, currencies, commodities, property, collectibles\u2026 you name it, I\u2019ve been through it.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve seen a lot of major peaks in asset prices\u2026 And they all feel the same. Investors clamor for more and more. They throw caution to the wind, buying as much as they can with no worries.<\/p>\n<p>We saw it with bitcoin in December. Everyone I knew was asking me if they should buy. And every other news headline described a new batch of \u201cbitcoin millionaires.\u201d Investor excitement was so thick you could cut it with a knife.<\/p>\n<p>The same was true for real estate a dozen years ago. Folks were giving up their day jobs to flip houses. The money was easy. And almost everyone had a false sense of security that housing was a \u201csure thing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The dot-com peak in 2000 was similar too. I had friends who started day trading and turned into millionaires. Businesses with no real plan to ever make money were going public\u2026 and soaring hundreds of percent in their first days of trading. It was crazy.<\/p>\n<p>Those moments are what tops feel like. You can feel the electricity in the air when everyone thinks they\u2019ll be the next one to get rich quick.<\/p>\n<p>We don\u2019t have that huge enthusiasm happening today.<\/p>\n<p>Today, folks are worried about trade wars. They\u2019re worried about North Korea. They\u2019re not ecstatic about stocks\u2026 And that tells me the market can still move higher.<\/p>\n<p>Good investing \u2013\u00a0Steve<\/p>\n<p>http:\/\/dailywealth.com\/articles\/this-is-why-the-u-s-bull-market-isnt-over-yet\/<\/p>\n<div class=\"nf-post-footer\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Don\u2019t get caught up in the headlines\u2026 Trade wars, interest-rate hikes, and U.S.-North Korean relations continue to dominate the news. <\/p>\n<div class=\"nf-post-footer\"><\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":108,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false}}},"categories":[6,7,8,1],"tags":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.insiderwealthalert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Screen-Shot-2018-07-31-at-4.10.20-PM.png","post_mailing_queue_ids":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.insiderwealthalert.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.insiderwealthalert.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.insiderwealthalert.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.insiderwealthalert.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.insiderwealthalert.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=78"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.insiderwealthalert.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":81,"href":"https:\/\/www.insiderwealthalert.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78\/revisions\/81"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.insiderwealthalert.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/108"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.insiderwealthalert.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=78"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.insiderwealthalert.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=78"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.insiderwealthalert.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=78"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
