😜Prepare for Entertaining Outcomes😜

It's the monthly jobs numbers today and they're not going to be pretty and will be possibly the tip of the iceberg as we head into May.

Good morning. Elon Musk once tweeted, "The most entertaining outcome is the most likely outcome." He's provided a number of entertaining outcomes, culminating with the offer to take Twitter (TWTR) private yesterday.

We certainly seem to live in a world where the most entertaining outcome succeeds where more obvious outcomes don't come to pass. That could be a part of our human need to create narratives and stories that often seem to defy facts. Or maybe it's just because we're living in a simulation, another theory that Musk has discussed.

Investors should prepare for such outcomes, even if they're more extreme, going forward. That means the explosion of life-changing technology trends in the next few years. And while it may mean some volatility along the way, looking for the most entertaining outcome has led Musk to become the world's wealthiest man. This may be a case of "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em."

Today's TOP TIPS
For the Best Profits, Follow Consolidating Industries
When an industry is new, many companies will flourish. Over time, the market will determine the best winners in the space. It could come from a better product, a better brand, a better business model, or simply lower costs.

Over time, that leads to consolidation as weaker players go out of business and smaller players are bought out. Investors who buy ahead of an offer can make money on the company being acquired. But owning the industry leader over time can be lucrative as well.

Quote of the Day
Given the extreme level of geopolitical crisis [and] sharpest Fed pivot, the market has been resilient. Returns are going to be lower but there is still an argument to be made for investing in equities – there is almost nowhere else to go. We will have to see how earnings go – how much companies talk about inflation, supply chain issues impacting margin, and rest of year outlook.
- Sylvia Jablonski, CEO and chief investment officer at Defiance ETFs, on why the stock market still looks like the most attractive asset class for investors today, and why earnings season could point to further profitable trades in the space.
