🤑 This Year’s Winning Asset Could Fare Even Better In 2024

Good morning. 2023 has been a great year for stocks, with the markets rebounding strongly from...
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. 2023 has been a great year for stocks, with the markets rebounding strongly from last year's bear market. The Dow even hit a new record high last week. Bonds aren't having a great year thanks to rising interest rates, but they're well off their lows from the fall. But the real winner has been bitcoin. It's had a triple-digit return, more than doubling from under $20,000 to over $40,000 this year. And 2024 is likely to see the approval of a bitcoin ETF, on top of the cryptocurrency's next halving.

Plus, an accounting rule change will make it easier for companies to handle holding bitcoin on their balance sheets. It's not too late to get into this trade yet, and given the volatility, any 10 percent drop or higher in bitcoin in the next few months looks like a strong buying opportunity. A few companies also already have bitcoin on their balance sheet, or play to the space directly, and could fare better than bitcoin itself in the next 12 months.

Now here's the rest of the news:

In it, he shares the details of the strategy that enabled him to...

Today's TOP TIPS
Invest With Stocks the Market Loves That Still Go for a Reasonable Price
Buying a great company sounds easy in theory. But over time, a company's fortunes can ebb and flow. That also leads to big changes in valuations. Investors who target an up-and-coming company that still trades like a value stock can potentially see great returns.

That's especially true for a company that can tap into one of today's many high-growth trends. Combining high growth with a reasonable value is a recipe for finding great stocks to buy and hold.

Central Banks Mixed on Potential Rate Cuts

Most of the world's major central banks have stopped increasing interest rates. A few are starting to look at potential rate cuts next year, including the Federal Reserve. However, other central banks have yet to make that commitment, including the Bank of England and the European Central Bank. That may mean cuts later, or earlier if there's a crisis in financial markets.
China's Economy Shows Continued Slowdown

The Chinese economy showed further signs of slowing down in November, with investment and consumer spending coming in lower than expected. An ongoing real estate crisis is weighing on the country. China ended the last of its last Covid lockdowns a year ago, a move that was expected to lead to a faster-growing economy this year.
Oil Prices Move to Contango

Crude oil prices jumped higher last week, but the futures market shows signs of contango. That's a pattern showing that most traders expect the price to be lower in the months ahead, not higher. Typically, such contango patterns in the futures markets are a poor sign for prices going forward.
Coal Demand Set to Decline

The International Energy Agency expects coal demand to decline 2 percent over the next three years, as China's slowing growth and increasing investments in renewable energy reduce demand. This is the first time predictions have been to the downside over the last three-year period. Coal is on track to hit 9.4 billion tons of demand for 2023.
Spotify Tests AI Playlist Feature

Quote of the Day
I wouldn't be short on [mega cap tech] because they do grow their earnings a lot faster than everybody else does. But we are looking for the rally to broaden so I would look elsewhere for now.
- Bankim Chadha, Deutsche Bank chief U.S. equity and global strategist, on why the stock market could move higher in 2024, driven by rallies in the hundreds of companies that aren't the mega-tech giants.
