Hello and CONGRATULATIONS! Earlier this week I sent out what I expected to be a pretty controversial trade recommendation — buying put options to short Nvidia (NVDA), one of the best-performing stocks of the AI boom. Nvidia is an amazing business, and I’m sure they’ll continue being great for years into the future.

Like our trend-and-momentum strategy, there’s a cyclical nature to the financial publishing world… That’s why I’m out of pocket today, working on a few exciting new projects with someone who’s undoubtedly a familiar face to long-time Max Profit Alert subscribers. Stay tuned for more on that front!

Last week, I shared a historical analysis of “non-emergency” rate cuts, defined as instances when the Federal Reserve began a rate-cutting cycle while stocks were within 5% of all-time highs. I hope you took a minute to read it – go here if you missed it. Not only does the analysis include a close look at historical tendencies — specifically, which sectors have typically benefitted the most (or least) from rate-cut cycles … we also ran analysis to show that sector performance since late July, when the latest cut began getting priced in, is following those historical tendencies so far.

I launched this service in 2012 on a simple premise: sector “cycles.” While I don’t believe that cycles in the market are preordained, meaning that we can forecast the upcoming peaks or troughs… It’s undeniable that each sector goes through periods when it underperforms the market, and periods when it outperforms.

Let’s take a moment today to celebrate an important milestone for our Max Profit Alert community… We locked in a profit on our 10th put-write position last Tuesday. More specifically, that closing trade made for the 10th profitable put-write position out of 10 positions total!
