You Can’t Be Too Early on This Soaring Trend
From Baltimore – “Investors looking for big gains this year need to think small,” says Matthew Carr, The Oxford Club’s Chief Trends Strategist.
As the Club’s CEO, I believe it’s vital that I stay abreast of emerging trends for our business. And no one keeps me more informed on the most exciting market developments than Matthew.
Take a look at the predictions he sent me (in writing) at the beginning of this year.
As you can see, he’s right on target – five for five. Here’s what he told me…
Cannabis grows like a weed…
Matthew said, “I think as many as five more states will legalize cannabis markets this year!”
And as of this writing, four states have already legalized cannabis this year. The cannabis sector as a whole is up 42%.
Travel and leisure stocks recover…
“These are must-haves for 2021. There is pent-up consumer demand for travel… and being anywhere besides home,” Matthew told me.
The Dow Jones U.S. Travel & Leisure Total Stock Market Index is up 11% as of this writing.
The energy bull is back… for now…
Matthew said, “In 2021, expect U.S. crude to retake $60 per barrel – a level not seen since the early days of 2020.”
Well, Brent crude oil just surpassed its 2019 high and is at $73.50 per barrel as of this writing.
Bitcoin tops $30,000…
“There’s still room for this bull to run. I think $30,000 is a feasible target, with potentially a lot more in store,” he predicted.
This definitely came true, and, even with the correction, Bitcoin is still at more than $35,000.
The stock market rally continues…
Matthew commented on the stock market rally as well…
We’ll see another year of gains for U.S. stocks, with small caps leading the charge. From a fundamental standpoint, there’s reason to believe that there is even more upside for small caps. Earnings on the Russell 2000 are projected to increase 150% this year, compared with the 23% increase forecast for the S&P 500 Index.
And today? Well, see for yourself…
Small caps are Matthew’s favorite companies to cover and invest in. As Members who follow his research know, he’s excellent at it.
In his VIP Trading Research Service Dynamic Fortunes, Matthew focuses on emerging sector plays with the following result…
Simply put, Matthew has managed to crush the S&P 500.
Just this month, his call option play on Virgin Galactic (NYSE: SPCE) more than doubled in just 13 days.
All of this is to say that it pays handsomely to keep tabs on Matthew’s emerging trend predictions.
So what’s he focused on now?
Well, Matthew predicts that space exploration and space tourism will be the fastest-growing sectors of the decade.
Matthew is here today on Market Wake-Up Call to answer this question: Is the space exploration market still light-years away from making great profits for investors?
Hardly. Matthew says, “What’s exciting about the commercial space industry is that it’s going to be one of the fastest-growing sectors over the next decade. It’s expected to grow to [more than] $1 trillion by at least 2040.”
And it’s not just about investing in space exploration and travel – or the big names in the industry, like Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT), SpaceX, Virgin Galactic and Blue Origin.
What Matthew loves are the many small cap companies vying to successfully support these headlining space ventures.
He likes the companies that will become hugely successful producing and distributing satellites, ground control systems, rocket parts and lunar landing equipment – and even the companies that will clean up the space debris.
One of Matthew’s top recommendations for 2021 is to get into the space industry now.
One of the easiest ways to invest in space for the long term is to buy an exchange-traded fund (ETF) that incorporates both small cap and large cap companies, like the Procure Space ETF (Nasdaq: UFO), SPDR S&P Kensho Final Frontiers ETF (NYSE: ROKT), and Ark Space Exploration & Innovation ETF (CBOE: ARKX).
But if you want to take advantage of Matthew’s excellent track record for making short-term profits in emerging markets – including in space exploration and manufacturing – you’ll want to check out his full presentation on the space sector and his VIP Trading Research Service Dynamic Fortunes right here.
However you play it, you shouldn’t write off space as inaccessible or too “far out” to invest in.
I like the perspective that host and Senior Editor Rachel Gearhart offers in today’s video. She notes that it took only about 70 years to go from the first manned airplane flight to landing a man on the moon, saying, “Technology marches on, and… it moves faster than anybody thinks it will.”
Enjoy your Sunday,
