Why I Ignore the Talking Heads

Trading With Larry Benedict
chart

Larry’s Note: What if you could pocket hundreds, even thousands of dollars the day a company goes public… without being a Wall Street insider… and without buying a single share of the stock?

Since 2022, I’ve placed this exact trade 95 times, with a documented 82.1% win rate.

That's not luck. That's a repeatable system. All you have to do is place ONE simple, five-minute trade the morning a company goes public.

The day SpaceX went public, for example, anyone who followed my trade alert could have pocketed a quick $205, $1,025, or even $2,050 – without ever owning a share.

Now a tsunami of over 800 IPOs is about to flood the market, handing prepared traders multiple chances to cash in on one of the most predictable and repeatable opportunities I've seen in 40 years of trading.

And on Wednesday, July 15, at 8 p.m. ET, I’m sharing the entire strategy. Click here now to automatically RSVP for this special event.

Why I Ignore the Talking Heads

By Larry Benedict, editor, Trading With Larry Benedict

Waiting in a hotel lobby, my eyes landed on the large TV screen on the wall. Talking heads were speculating about the economy and the markets.

Everywhere you look, there’s no shortage of commentators expressing their opinion. They’ll happily tell you what to think about midterms, the war in Iran, or the health of the U.S. and global economies.

Sure, that commentary adds noise and color to the news cycle…

But no matter how well-informed their comments might be, no one knows how things are going to play out. There are way too many balls up in the air.

The trick is not to get pulled in by all the talk. The market will do what it’s going to do, no matter what everyone thinks.

So as a trader, here’s what you should do instead…

Elon Is All in on “Accelerated AI”. Here’s Why…

Forget SpaceX. Elon’s next BIG bet is a radical “light-speed” device that’s turning AI into “Accelerated AI” – and making it 100 times faster and 100 times more energy efficient. The mainstream hasn’t caught on yet. But “Accelerated AI” stocks are breaking out as we speak: 133%, 217%, or even 320% or more… and it’s just getting started. Click here to learn more about Elon’s next play and how to get ahead of it.


Shake Off the Influence

The problem with listening to opinions is that they can get into your head. That can influence your trading decisions.

For example, if experts say that the market is going to tank this week, you may find it hard to go against their collective wisdom. You could miss out on excellent trades, as contrary positions can be highly profitable.

Just look at the current market…

On the geopolitical front, there’s the war in Iran, where peace deals keep falling apart. On the economic front, there are inflation fears. Plus, the market still isn’t fully factoring in Kevin Warsh’s hawkishness at the Federal Reserve.

We have no way of knowing where things will ultimately land… There’s no way to know the long-term impact on the economy.

But the narrative puts weight on the market. With these concerns and the bearish commentary floating in your head, do you really want to be active?

But if you sit on the sidelines, you could miss out on potentially lucrative trades…

Reading the Tea Leaves

As a trader, you’ve got to read the tea leaves to see what the market is giving you…

This can be tricky to keep in mind. Occasionally, my subscribers write in to ask things like, “If we’re bearish on the market, why are we buying calls (which profit from a rising stock price)?”

But that’s the thing… If the market should be going down but it’s rising instead, you’ve got to respect what the market is doing. Going against that is a surefire way to tear up your account.

We’re going to enter positions based on what the market is doing… and we’ll stay flexible. At some point, all the good (or bad) news gets priced into a stock.

When that happens, it doesn’t take much for stocks to quickly revert the other way. That’s why you need to be standing ready to profit in these kinds of moments.

Doing so has enabled my subscribers to pick up double- and triple-digit returns at times when others were reeling from losses. Plenty of those gains have come against the prevailing market wisdom.

The key is to ignore what all those talking heads are trying to tell you. Let the market action dictate your trades instead.

Happy Trading,
