The Market Is at a Decision Point

Tuesday, December 30, 2025

Don here…

Gianni just identified a critical inflection point that will determine the next several months of trading.

His thesis is straightforward. If stocks don’t start rallying by the end of next week, we’re heading into a multi-month grind that will punish both bulls and bears. The market loves to frustrate the largest number of traders possible, and a choppy sideways environment would do exactly that.

Right now, semiconductors are leading, which Gianni views as a green light for risk-taking. Here’s what he’s watching:

• Tesla forming a higher low. Several consecutive down days have created what Gianni calls a “very bullish setup.” He sees Tesla as the best Mag Seven opportunity heading into Q1 and believes it could drive a potential blow-off rally.
• Precious metals are exhausted. Silver blew past his original $48 to $50 target and is now up around 10%. Gold and silver miners are underperforming by a notable margin. Gianni views this move as a bubble and wouldn’t chase it here.
• Robinhood building a beautiful base. He wouldn’t be surprised to see this stock hit $200 per share at some point in 2026 once the current consolidation ends.

The bigger picture centers on timing. A blow-off rally now would set up a notable correction in early 2026, creating the best dip-buying opportunity since April. But that scenario requires liftoff within the next week.

Gold’s rally is big — but what comes next…

A message from Weiss Inc.

Dear Reader,

Gold recently surged past $4,200 an ounce. 

Up almost 25% in the last six months. 

And 45% in the last year. 

But we believe this is just the start. 

Weiss Ratings’ in-house gold expert Sean Brodrick … who has been tracking precious metals for over three decades … believes gold could surpass $6,900 very soon. 

However, here’s what Sean knows that most people don’t …

Every time gold has made big moves, there’s another investment that has done WAY better. 

Imagine banking 21 times … 49 times … 157 times … 218 times … even 1,386 times more than just holding physical gold. 

It happened in the 1970s. 

It happened in 2008. 

And Sean thinks it could happen again right now. 

The best part? You don’t need to buy a single gold coin to have a chance at gains like that. 

Most folks have no idea it even exists, but this is the exact same strategy that gave smart investors an opportunity to make an incredible 26,000% gain during a past gold bull run. 

With gold at record highs right now and showing no signs of stopping, this opportunity is heating up fast.

Don’t delay. 

See how this strategy works.

Bitcoin’s pullback just created a “fire sale” (retire early…

A message from Boardwalk Flock LLC

Dear Friend,

The smartest traders I know are loading up on altcoins like CRAZY right now…

Why?

Bitcoin just pulled back from its historic breakthrough—creating a rare “fire sale” opportunity across the entire crypto market.

But here’s what most investors don’t realize…

While Bitcoin climbed 13% in 2025’s first half, altcoins got crushed—Ethereum down 25%, smaller coins down 30%.

This looks terrible… but seasoned crypto investors know this is exactly the setup that created retirement-sized fortunes in previous cycles.

Remember:

• Ripple exploded 155,555% in the 2016-2018 cycle
• Solana surged 40,000% in 2020-2021
• Polygon gained 19,043% turning $1,000 into nearly $200,000

Right now, Ethereum’s exchange supply has declined to some of the lowest levels seen in years — a signal often associated with reduced sell-side pressure and rising long-term investor conviction.

The spring is coiling. The question is: will you be positioned when it releases?

Get the “Crypto Retirement Blueprint” now >>

This step-by-step guide shows you:

• How to identify altcoins with 10,000%+ potential
• The “concentrated diversity” strategy to limit risk while maximizing upside
• When and how to sell for maximum retirement gains

Don’t let this fire sale slip away.

P.S. July has historically averaged positive crypto returns since 2013. But with altcoins this beaten down, the snapback could be explosive.

The crash didn’t kill this crypto. It made it…

A message from Boardwalk Flock LLC

Projects with weak fundamentals got exposed. Overleveraged traders got liquidated. Paper hands got shaken out at the worst possible moment.

But a few cryptos passed the test with flying colors.

I’m watching one right now that actually saw its on-chain metrics IMPROVE during the carnage. 

More network activity. More active addresses. More real usage… while prices collapsed around it.

That’s not luck. That’s underlying strength that the market hasn’t priced in yet.

Now that the selling pressure is finally lifting, this disconnect won’t last long.

Our track record speaks for itself… 

• 8,600% (OCEAN) 
• 3,500% (PRE) 
• 1,743% (ALBT)

See the crypto that emerged from the crash stronger than ever… go here now.

The shakeout separated the pretenders from the contenders. I know which side I’m betting on.

Must Read: My 5 Tips to Set Your Portfolio…

My 5 Tips to Set Your Portfolio Up for the Long Haul

VIEW IN BROWSER

With Christmas now behind us, I hope you’ve had a chance to unwind, enjoy time with family and friends, and recharge for the year ahead. These final days of December offer a rare window – a time when the world slows down just enough to step back and take stock without getting swept up in every market headline.

After all, trading volume is light this week, and paying too much attention to the day-to-day action can do more harm to your stress levels than all those holiday sweets combined.

That’s why, before we step into the New Year, I’d like to share my most important investing tips to prime your portfolio to flourish in the coming months. Let’s get right to it.

Recommended Link

The window for preparation isn’t just closing — it’s slamming shut.

What I’ve uncovered about the true impact of President Trump’s tariffs and DOGE initiative has left me deeply troubled. As someone who worked inside the Federal Reserve system and managed billions for America’s wealthiest families, I recognize the warning signs others miss. I urge you to see my urgent message immediately. The window for preparation isn’t just closing — it’s slamming shut. Watching this may be the most consequential few minutes you spend this year.

1. Invest in high margin companies that dominate their business. A company that’s able to expand its operating margins is usually a company that has a dominant position – such as a monopoly – in its industry. This company can raise prices without seeing a drop-off in sales, and that’s a nice place to be, especially in the current inflationary environment.

2. Along these lines, companies that have margin expansion tend to post bigger earnings surprises. This is one reason why I like the oil refiners right now. They have dramatic profit margin expansion and are also profiting from rising natural gas and crude oil prices.

3. Invest in companies with strong forecasted sales and earnings. Do you really want to buy stock in a company that’s expecting its growth to slow? As sales and earnings dwindle, so will Wall Street’s interest in the stock. You want to invest in companies that are expecting to be even bigger and better quarter after quarter. Ultimately, these are the ones that will see an increase in institutional buying pressure. As that buying pressure increases, so will the stock price.

I am a stickler about this in Growth Investor. As I write this, our Growth Investor stocks are characterized by an average of 26.7% annual sales growth and 90.4% annual earnings growth.

4. Look for companies that see positive analyst revisions in the past three months, as these typically post earnings surprises. If a stock beats Wall Street’s earnings forecast by a significant amount, share prices can rally dramatically. When I find an unsung stock that has regularly performed better than the “experts” have predicted, I recommend it on the premise that it should top expectations again – and see shares surge when it does.

5. If you’re a dividend investor, focus on companies that are consistently raising their dividends. You want to be sure you’re investing in dividend stocks that have the ability to increase their dividend payments. I check this by looking at the company’s last four dividend payments. Are they increasing? Are they decreasing? Are they staying the same? Decreasing dividend payments are a bad sign (it often means the company isn’t doing well), and you want to avoid those stocks.

Where to Invest First

For all investors, old and new, my Stock Grader (subscription required) is a great tool to keep in your back pocket. You simply plug in a stock you like and it will automatically grade that stock for you. An A-rating is “Very Strong,” a B-rating “Strong,” a C-rating “Neutral,” a D-rating “Weak” and an F-rating is “Very Weak.” You’ll know right away whether the stock you’re interested in is one worth buying or one you shouldn’t touch with a ten-foot pole.

If you’re not sure where to invest, I encourage you to check out Growth Investor. This service is chock-full of fundamentally superior companiesacross a variety of sectors to ensure that you’re investing in stocks that will “zig” when others “zag” – which will give your portfolio an extra boost when the broader market rallies, as well as protect if it the broader market turns south.

And the time to position your portfolio is now. Fundamentally superior stocksshould benefit from new pension funding in the upcoming weeks and the overall seasonally strong time of year.

My Growth Investor subscribers have the odds in their favor with stocks with phenomenal sales and earnings growth. Join Growth Investor today so you do, too.

Sincerely,

Louis Navellier

Americans Are Livin’ the Dream

AN OXFORD CLUB PUBLICATION

Loyal reader since August 2025 

View in browser

Editor’s Note: The information contained in this video wasn’t meant for the public.

In short, President Trump has up to $25 million in a single fund most Americans have never heard of… and it’s been paying him as much as $250,000 a month.

Chief Investment Strategist Alexander Green spent months investigating this unusual fund.

What he found has the potential to transform your retirement.

Click here to see what Alex uncovered.

How Millions of Americans Live the Dream… Without Realizing It

Alexander Green, Chief Investment Strategist, The Oxford Club

In a recent column, I described how most products in the U.S. became increasingly affordable between 1980 and 2020 when measured in the number of hours worked to pay for them.

However, we saw the biggest spike in inflation in 40 years during the Biden Administration, thanks to massive deficit spending, near-zero interest rates, and the temporary shutdown of the global supply chain.

Yet “time prices” still came down by the end of 2024, extending the long-term trend.

Rare Earth Stocks Go Wild:
Don’t Miss The Next Big One

MP Materials…. Energy Fuels. USA Rare Earth. They’re all soaring. But this frenzy may be just the opening act. Because a new discovery… quietly linked to Elon Musk…could make the gains we’ve seen so far seem puny…

Ian King has the details here.

Between 2000 and 2024, the CPI rose 82.2%.

But hourly earnings for blue-collar workers rose 115.1% – outpacing inflation by more than 40%.

That means an hour of work bought 18.1% more goods and services at the end of 2024 than it did at the beginning of 2000.

That’s progress. Just not the kind that the media bothers to cover.

Unlike money, time can’t be counterfeited or inflated.

There is perfect equality here. We all get 60 minutes in an hour and 24 hours in a day.

Our time is truly our most precious resource, the only one that cannot be recycled, stored, duplicated, or recovered.

When time prices decrease – as they have for decades now – an hour of time buys more products and services.

While people often compare what they make with someone earning more, they rarely stop to realize how much more they can buy today compared with what they could buy in the past for the same hours worked.

Time prices are the one unimpeachable standard to compare abundance from one era to another.

And their fall is not due to an increase in material resources. It is due to the expansion of knowledge, which enables us to use resources more creatively and effectively.

This is a powerful phenomenon, yet one that is not commonly understood.

Being able to afford more while working less is further evidence that most Americans are living the Dream without realizing it.

Most of us take the long-term improvement in our standard of living for granted.

Indeed, there is a common misconception that increasing progress and prosperity have been the norm for as long as human beings have been around.

Yet history reveals that this is decidedly not the case.

Imagine, for example, that the Roman statesman Cicero was magically able to time travel and visit Thomas Jefferson at Monticello more than 1,800 years later.

Cicero would arrive at the coast of Virginia the same way Jefferson would have made the trip to Italy.

He would ride a horse to the nearest port and trust his fate to a windblown ship.

When Cicero arrived at Monticello months later, things would look quite familiar.

Jefferson’s home was heated by fire in the winter, and the doors and windows were left wide open in the summer, the same as in ancient Rome.

Jefferson read by candlelight, drew his water from a well, ate mostly what he raised, used an outhouse, and owned slaves, just like Romans did 18 centuries earlier.

Cicero would learn that four of Jefferson’s six children did not survive early childhood.

Nothing new there. This was sadly the case for most of human history.

(Jefferson’s wife died at age 33 of complications from giving birth to their sixth child.)

Except for a few notable innovations – like the printing press, gunpowder, and the compass – life in 1800 was hardly distinguishable from life almost 2,000 years earlier.

Since then, however, there has been an explosion in human progress and prosperity.

Economic historian Deirdre McCloskey calls it the Great Enrichment, a period of exponential wealth creation that started more than 200 years ago and is still accelerating.

This is plainly visible in the quality of your transportation, the speed of your communications, your many laborsaving devices, and the huge variety of goods, services, and outright luxuries available to you at the click of a button.

Thomas Jefferson did not have electricity, cars, trains, airplanes, radio, television, cameras and video recorders, smartphones, computers, lasers, batteries, the World Wide Web, antibiotics, vaccines, pacemakers, artificial hearts, MRI scans, gene therapies, and countless other lifesaving and life-enhancing innovations.

Marc’s Friday LIVE Trade Session 

What is most responsible for our exponential increase in abundance?

Two things: freedom and people.

Freedom is crucial because it allows people to create and profit from their innovations.

(That’s why goods and services have notbecome cheaper for the average consumer in Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea, and other unfree nations.)

But this phenomenon is not about freedom alone. It’s also about more people. A lot more people.

People generate knowledge. Knowledge multiplies output. And freedom lets people share, trade, and profit from their discoveries.

The freer a society, the greater its time price gains. The more people it empowers, the richer its outcomes.

Scarcity didn’t win. Innovation did.

We have increased food supply, for instance, by increasing yields from existing fields.

We’ve increased our agricultural efficiency so much that less than 2% of the U.S. population farms at all.

After more than a century of intensive fossil fuel use, we have more known deposits of oil and gas than ever before.

(And we’ve surveyed only a tiny portion of the planet.)

Overpopulation is not a threat. On the contrary, limiting population growth limits brainpower.

Yet generations of schoolchildren have been taught that population growth makes resources scarcer.

Indeed, academia and the media repeatedly warn us that we are consuming the planet’s natural resources at an alarming rate… and that they will soon be gone.

Not true. Resource abundance is growing faster than the world population.

Our economy has reached such a level of efficiency and sophistication that we are producing an increasing amount of goods and services while using ever-fewer resources.

For example, from 2014 to 2024 U.S. real gross domestic product grew by 27.6%.

But, over the same period, energy consumption decreased by 1.3%.

Western countries have learned how to get the most energy with the least emission of greenhouse gases.

As we climbed the energy ladder from wood to coal to oil to gas, the ratio of carbon to hydrogen in our energy sources fell steadily.

As a result, fewer American cities are now shrouded in a smoggy haze.

Our distant ancestors spent most of their waking hours hunting and gathering food to live.

Yet the typical American today earns their food in a matter of minutes. And we are spoiled for choice at the average supermarket.

We have more goods and services available – and work fewer hours to afford them – than any previous generation.

The world today is incomparably richer than it was in decades past.

Yet the doomsayers are unable to see it – or don’t want to.

Instead, they continually warn us that the end is nigh.

As a result, many Americans are unable to enjoy the countless advantages of modern life because they believe it is on the verge of ending – and there is nothing they can do about it.

Don’t buy it. Especially the claims about “overpopulation.”

The most important resource in today’s world is not oil or natural gas or some rare earth mineral.

It’s people. By applying their intelligence and creativity, individual men and women make other resources more abundant.

Additional people don’t just create additional demand. (Although that also promotes growth and prosperity.)

They represent an additional supply of ideas, knowledge, and productive work.

We shouldn’t underestimate the power of this. Or what time prices tell us.

When you spend less time laboring to feed and clothe your family, put a roof over your head, keep the lights on, and pay your bills, you are gaining the ultimate wealth: more time to do what you really want.

This is not just prosperity. It’s superabundance.

And another reason to acknowledge that the American Dream is alive and well – for those with eyes to see it.

Good investing,
