Dear Reader, After eighteen months of relative calm, volatility returned to the stock market – and investors did not take it lightly. In fact, CNN's Fear and Greed Index – one of the most closely watched gauges of market sentiment – closed in "extreme fear" territory earlier this month. But if last week's stunning recovery set your mind at ease, I have bad news for you... I believe there is A LOT more volatility to come. I expect the market to remain volatile well into October... and test investors' nerves all the while. It's all because of a peculiar yet very predictable phenomenon. See, around this time every year, the market nearly always takes a nosedive. And the ensuing volatility often lasts longer than most investors anticipate. For instance, the market started declining in September of 2018 and didn't reach a bottom until Christmas. It fell a total of 20%. The market also took a nosedive in late August of 1987 and didn't form a bottom until mid-October. By then, it had fallen 33%. And in 2008, the market started sinking on August 11 – and fell 42% before ultimately forming a bottom in mid-November. That's why I'm urging all readers of Chaikin Analytics to prepare themselves for MORE volatility in September. You see, while this situation isn't covered widely by the mainstream financial press, I can predict this next wave of volatility with 80% confidence, based on over 70 years of data. This next wave of volatility has nothing to do with the election, the AI bubble, or any geopolitical conflicts. But it will have a major impact on the market in the last few months of 2024. That's why I recently sat down to explain why I'm so certain there's more volatility ahead... Along with a unique way you can take advantage of it for the chance to make big gains with a high degree of confidence, often in just a few weeks or months. Click here to learn more.
