Behind the Trade: Use Leverage to Your Advantage
From the Baltimore Clubhouse – “It’s all in the hips.”
And no, I’m not talking about salsa dancing.
It was one of the first lessons I learned during my self-defense training to work at a local mental institution (my first real job in high school).
You see, koshi-waza, the judo hip toss, allows someone small – by using their hips as leverage – to throw a larger opponent off balance. It’s a critical skill if you’re in a situation where you’re outmatched size-wise and need to make a quick exit without doing much harm.
And from my conversation with ETF Strategist Nicholas Vardy, it’s clear that this self-defense lesson also applies to investors looking to tap into a growing – and highly profitable – asset class.
Nicholas has harnessed the power of leverage and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to produce multiple double-digit returns over the past few weeks.
It’s no secret that the ETF market is heating up.
Currently there are about $4.7 trillion in global ETF assets. And according to BlackRock, over the next five years, that number is expected to jump to $12 trillion. Over the next 10, ETF assets could reach $25 trillion.
And Nicholas has the pulse on this trend…
Less than six months after launching his ETF trading service, Oxford Wealth Accelerator, Nicholas is celebrating a staggering 96% success rate.
In today’s Behind the Trade, he discusses three recent winners – all of which were triple-leveraged ETFs.
But leveraged plays like those don’t come without a warning label.
In our discussion, Nicholas explains how you can use leverage to your advantage… without throwing your hip out.
Good investing,
