Analysts' and Indicators' Outlooks for the Coming Week
There are a number of ways to invest: using short-term, medium-term, and long-term approaches —day-trading, swing trading, buy and hold. I am always looking for the simplest, least-complicated way to invest, while at the same time ensuring that it is a powerful and effective way to make money.
(At the outset, let me say that my bias and philosophical bent here is from the perspective of market timing based on technical indicators and trends, and not fundamentals, and using index ETFs as opposed to individual stocks.)
One such approach is to simply assess the market at the end of the week, then make a decision based on that assessment for the next week’s trading position.
Here I am looking at some of the best trading minds, culling their freely-available insights into the market, and tabulating it here on a weekly basis. I am inviting you to explore with me this inquiry into what some of the best minds are thinking about the market in terms of being bullish or bearish, and then using their wisdom to make our own decisions.
