Special Update: Tight trading ranges calm before the storm …

SCT Issue #232

By many measures, market volatility – trends and swings within trends – is at extreme lows.

* Market volatility in the S&P 500 is hovering near seven-year lows. Merely the calm before the storm. Check out this chart of the SPX Market Volatility Index.

SCT CHART 1

*Investors in the tech heavy NASDAQ are even more complacent. Check out this chart of the CBOE Nasdaq Volatility Index. Volatility is at nearly nine-year lows. Merely the calm before the storm.

SCT CHART 2

* Market volatility in the gold market is hovering near two-year lows. Considering the worsening crisis in Europe, I find that simply amazing. And merely another sign of the calm before the approaching storm!

SCT CHART 3

It’s also the type of market environment where …

A. Investors who are complacent get skinned alive as the storm hits. While …

B. Investors who stay alert and on their toes during the calm can prepare to not only protect their wealth, but also grow it dramatically when the storm hits.

That storm is approaching, in the convergence of several major macro-economic cycles that are now gathering momentum, and that will hit the markets with full force and fury less than 11 weeks from now.

The cyclical research that accurately predicted the Great Depression and every major financial event since confirm that analysis.

It would be foolhardy to ignore the evidence. This crisis is coming whether we like it or not. I have even discovered the precise date when it is set to begin: October 7 of this year.

That leaves you and me with only one choice to make – and burying our heads in the sand is not an option.

The only rational choice is to fully grasp how this crisis will unfold … prepare to survive it … and USE it to keep our wealth growing.

In just over 72 hours, I will help you do all that and more.

In three briefings next week; on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday (July 20, 21 and 22), I will present my evidence. I will give you my forecasts.

And I will name the investments that I’m convinced will multiply your money many times over as this supercycle courses through the global economy – the very investments I’ll be recommending here in the weeks and months ahead.

Due to your status as a member of my online family, I have taken the liberty of pre-registering you; reserving a seat for you at these briefings.

To attend, simply click this link a few minutes before 2:00 PM Eastern Time (1:00 PM Central, 12:00 Noon Mountain, 11:00 AM Pacific, 6:00 PMGMT).

Until then, here’s wishing you the best of luck.

Sincerely,
