TRIPLE TOP IN DOW AND SNP - BE WARY!
Even though all markets turned back into green territory after Trump tweeted trade talks are constructive, investors should be very carefull. There are more signs of a correction. Dow Jones Industrial and the SNP just made a new top this week – a fresh tripple top. And this is usually followed by a sharp correction.
However at the worst point markets erased already $2 trillion for the week in market capitalization.
Indeed a crazy time for investors and something thats shows very well, how fast it could come down, within short. Thus investors should be wary. Stay in equities but make sure your are hedged while participating in equity markets. And once again don´t use ETFs, since those products are much more risky than usually known and mentioned by your advisors. Of course the Banker will never tell you the truth about the risk since the Bank wants him to sell its products. He/She are in a trap to follow the Banks advise and to sell the stuff no matter what is the outcome for clients, or to lose their jobs. That´s why. ETFs are always 100% invested, there is never ever cash in the fund. So in the case one will sell his position the ETF has to sell a portion of the fund to achieve the equivalent of money. And once the market started to fall, one after another will try to get out, but this will lead the market to fall deeper and deeper. When panic comes to the market, and this is the real risk in ETFs, everyone will leave the party asap and sell his position, causing the ETFs to sell more and more of its overall position. It could at least last days or even weeks in the worst case to execute all orders ultimately. Hence you lose control of your investment and you only can wait until your order is executed, no matter a what price. It's like an avalanche. Just remember only the BoJ, Bank of Japan owns 75% of all ETFs on the Nikkei. And guess who will serve first in the case of a crash, surely not private investors. So learn your lesson, never purchase ETFs no matter what others will tell you, no matter how cheap it may be on the first view. The pain that may come in the case of a crash and you are not able to get out of it at the time you place the order, because others are served first, is not worth to be invested in such a tool. This will never ever happen in stocks. Thus buy stocks only instead!!!!
By the way, Thyssen Krupp jumped today more than 28% to 14,5€ following the news it will cut 6000 jobs. 4000 only in Germany. Once again, if managers fail to do their jobs, they cut the jobs of their employees. Welcome to the modern world.
Have a great weekend.
