In other words, if the Nasdaq 100 declines 10%, PSQ should be up roughly 10%.

Buff Up In A Bear Market

Bear Market rule of thumb: Don’t just run off with the crowd and sell off, because that’s what they’re doing. Take a page out of Warren Buffett’s book instead.

Granted, the guy can afford to lose a few dollars here and there, but his investment philosophy is the important thing: He doesn’t cave into uncertainty, fear, or panic. He just rides out the market’s fluctuations and, in fact, rather than selling off, he uses downtimes as an opportunity to accumulate his positions for a discount.

And that’s what has helped make him one of the world’s most successful investors.

“I’m not suggesting we just blindly throw our money at the market. But the selloff is providing us with an opportunity to get involved with biotech - and I can’t think of a sector I’d rather be in than biotech right now. No matter what the economy has in store for us, people are going to continue to take the medicines that fight their illnesses. And this month, I’ve got two recommendations that have me salivating…”
