Stock Markets and Economic Data (Correlation)

One of the cool things I learned when I learned to trade was that the market does what the market does and the news makes a narrative out of it. So the market will fall just like you expected it to and the news will report something like "Dow drops 200 points as unemployment report is higher than expected." It's like "No, the market was always going to drop once it reached that level."

Where is the GDP data from? I could‘t find find such an exact graph, only Charts with 1 Datapoint per year

It’s important to know your investment goals and what sort of returns you aim for. It is easy to find constant low risk investments options that keep up with or slightly pass inflation, but anything above that comes at the cost of more risk. Are you a fundamental or technical guy? Day trader, swing trader, buy and hold? Are you willing to take safer lower investment income over riskier higher income? Do you believe in market indicators? Can you recognize if you are trading out of greed, or if you are trading with a plan and purpose with stops put in place? That all takes time to learn and we all know that the economy and the markets are not the same thing.

it feels good to see the market in green, but just how long until we actually break even, I’m the average retail trader, DCA-ing, buying and holding on to stocks for eons, but it’s like I’m up 5% today and down 17% the next week, Yes the market is very unpredictable, there’s winners and losers, and it’s looking like I’ve been on a losing streak, while others make huge 6figure gains in the same market. What strategies are these folks using?

When everything started to tank, I lost more than $40,000. Not because I was involved in a heated exchange. Because that's what everyone else said, I was just dumb to hold, and that's why. Even while I still have responsibility for my decisions, I now consider myself to be a better investor because I am more aware of the potential pitfalls. I was in the market for more than 3 years before I realized that. I'm happy to have discovered a way to get my money back at approximately $5,000 per week in profits. Many thanks, Mrs Judith M Layton.

what's about buy the fu..ing DIP strategy ?

Hello sir im interested on makyng a bussiness with you can you tell me how to contact you

Is it just pertaining to gdp per say or to all the remaining data points also..like fed rates, cpi data, crude prices, dollar fluctuations..etc..in all these also does the market factors in early??

So one more in the list of leading indicators..n guess what..it is the market itself..😊.. Nice useful explanation..

The market is rigged as it ever was. At times the expectant results backfire due to ineptitude or delayed reaction to tighten the 'exuberance'. Case in point when Reaganomics let the banks on a free range to fatten their accounts so now the reaction to slow down the excess is bit too late . When the excesses in the banking are too apparent the amount of liquidity ,money in the hands of consumers held for a routine daily existential needs.

The media is currently barraged with a lot of economic data right now. It takes a lot to see beyond the whole ocean of news on focus on what is important, which is that no matter how low stocks go, they always bounce back. I really ignore all the news and keep investing. I recently allocated about $121k to put in the market as we anticipate a crash. Any recommendations?

Amazing 👍

can you do a video of stock valuation corelation with its actual price ?? people say i should invest in undervalue stocks

This is how I trade and invest as a Momentum Investor. This is spot on. Great explanation!

Love your channel!!! Ive learned more from it than anywhere else.

You need to decrease the Gains of the sound recording

As of right now we are in a bull market and out of the woods?

I really appreciate the dedication in each video you post. Despite the dip in crypto, I still thank you for the level-headed financial advice. I started crypto and forex investment with $4,345 and since following you for few weeks now, I’ve gotten $18,539 in my portfolio. Thanks so much Mrs Payton Brooks .

Off topic feedback, sound quality could be better.

Now I finally understand y mkts keep going up despite bad economy😂

One of the clearest explanations of the market cycle I've ever heard. The current Nasdaq 100 index is a good example - up 25% this year whilst all the economic data is pretty negative e.g the US debt ceiling concerns. Looks like the smart money is buying up technology fast whilst it is still cheaper than in 2021. Thanks as alway, Gareth.

Another good video. Thanks for making such easy-to-understand content.

Is there any reason the 2001 recession isn’t included? looks like NBER declared 2001 as a recession in 2003? If the pandemic recession is included it doesn’t make sense to not include 2001.

Thanks sharing such a nice content with us

many thanks

Any chance we can see / track somewhere the investor championship ?
( trading competition) I’m wondering if we can see the current performance

So basically, ignore the macro economics like Peter Lynch said(iirc)

hello quick question for you. Could you please tell me the software you use to make the animations for your videos? Thanks!!!

News is only an excuse to move the market so market makers don’t get regulation issues. The direction is impossible to predict.

Another insightful, easy to understand, excellent video. Thank you.
