Nick Hodge here with Foundational Profits.
That's the monthly newsletter where I write about what I'm doing with my safe, long-term retirement wealth.
The December issue of Foundational Profits is now available.
We're heading into 2024 and yet the stock market, as evidenced by the S&P 500, remains down from where it was at the start of 2022.
So we've had two years of a bear market in stocks.
I outline what's ahead for 2024, but not before looking back and giving you a recap of 2023 and what occurred in macro markets.
Then I look forward and I give you an outlook for what to expect in 2024. We look at the stock market, the economy, inflation, interest rates — and my forecast for all of those things.
Hint: I've concluded that the rate-hiking cycle is over.
This issue discusses what that means. Part of what it means is you can start getting into rate-sensitive trades. I have one new recommendation in that vein in this December issue.
I also have a new battery stock recommendation. It's not some new battery. It's not some new technology or some new chemical or some new mineral. This is a technology play on an improvement of current lithium ion cell technology.
I've long said that lithium is here to stay for a while. There's no replacement. And this stock doesn't replace lithium in any way. What it does is augments the production of lithium ion cells to make them more efficient, more powerful and more easily chargeable.
So you get two new recommendations in this December issue: One rate sensitivity trade and one battery stock investment.
Then I talk about gold because it hit a record-high price heading into December above $2,100 an ounce. We've been positioned in gold. We've been positioned in gold stocks. I outline where we've been, where we're going and how to position in the gold space.
Finally, we have a call-in coming up. I have these every quarter.
If there's something that wasn't answered in the issue or the portfolio or the special reports that I offer with Foundational Profits, you can dial into the quarterly call-in, which we're having in December for the fourth quarter, and ask me all your burning questions about the market.
I hope to see you there.
