The Last Great Source of Income...
Dividends are just about the last source of investment income left in America.
And in 2016, many companies are slashing their payments. We've already seen cuts ranging from 25% all the way to 76% on companies including CenturyLink, Wynn Resorts and Marathon Oil. Click here to learn more. | | |
Cooler Heads Prevail: Stay Calm This Election Season and Your Portfolio Will Thank You
 Transcript
Today's Two-Minute Retirement Solution is for all those who believe that either presidential candidate will destroy the economy... and, in the process, their retirement nest eggs. Based on the conversations I've been a part of lately, there are plenty of folks on both sides of that argument.
No matter which historical election you look at, there has always been the belief that one candidate or both candidates would ruin this country.
Take the pre-election beliefs about Obama and George W. Bush.
When Obama was elected, his opponents claimed that his business and healthcare policies would destroy the country. Of course, they didn't. In fact, after some initial turbulence in the markets, stocks tripled off the bottom.
We had some rough spots along the way, but the economic Armageddon that was predicted never materialized.
And what about George W. Bush? I know a person who moved to Canada because he was elected.
He thought the end was near because another Bush was in office. And I've heard the same threat from a lot of folks on both sides of the aisle this year. | | How to Get a "Cash Rebate" on Virtually Every Purchase You Make in 2016...
Few people are talking about this... but the government just passed legislation that could give you cash back on nearly all your consumer spending this year.
I'm talking about Christmas presents... lunch with friends... your hotel bill from vacation... even big-ticket items like a new car.
"We have been trying forever to get something good for the middle class... and this is a jackpot," one U.S. senator told The New York Times.
But there is one catch... You must start preparing now to maximize your 2016 payout. Details on how to do it here. | | |
But despite lowering taxes, running big deficits and fighting an unpopular war (all of which were major issues for his critics), the market still doubled in the first five years under Bush.
The Great Recession hit after that, but we survived that too. If you sat tight, you were fine.
The bottom line is no one person can destroy this economy. It's just too diverse and too big!
Obama did a good job on the coal industry (except for the poor coal miners who were put out of work and the investors who lost everything)... but even those regulatory efforts didn't affect the broader markets.
Emotions run wild in election years. And it's especially true this year. But emotions always cause investors to lose money.
Whether you're reacting to the daily market ups or downs, or to the most recent analysis of why one candidate or the other will destroy this country, you always lose when emotions drive your decision-making.
The fact is, despite the media's best efforts to drive everyone insane over who will be the next president, from a historical financial perspective, it doesn't matter.
Both parties will take credit for successes and blame the other side for failures. That's how it works.
But ultimately, when it comes to your investments, it's about fundamentals, earnings and revenue... not who is in the White House. That's it.
So if you're feeling like you have to go to cash to protect yourself from the Donald or from Hillary, don't do it!
I love Canada. It's one of my favorite places to visit... but if you're thinking you've got to move there, cool your jets. Moving changes nothing... and their winters are really tough.
It's all about emotions, and emotions always cause losses. They change as often as the direction of the wind. So your best bet is to forget about it.
Good investing,
