Summertime

Our strategies performed well in May, despite the S&P 500 failing to reach new highs.

Our Crypto & Leveraged Top 2 Strategy recovered some previous losses achieving a gain of +15.4% by allocating to leveraged Silver and a money market fund (GSY). Our NASDAQ 100 Strategy picked winners and came in at +13% while maintaining part of its allocation in GSY and gold for partial protection.

The Maximum Yield Strategy continued its strong performance as the market remained bullish but fearful of a correction, keeping volatility premiums at favorable levels.
 

What to Expect for the Summer

Traditionally, the summer months have been volatile. Current central bank actions are also uncertain. On one hand, markets are bullish, anticipating a possible rate cut by the ECB and the Bank of England as soon as June 6th. On the other hand, the FED is moving away from an imminent rate cut scenario, with many analysts not expecting a cut for the rest of the year, which is bearish for the markets.

However, remember that we are in a U.S. election year, and a devastating crash would not support any re-election plans. Of course, one can never be certain. Keep your portfolio exposed to the market uptrend but somewhat protected in case of a correction.

Remember, the first rule of investing in the stock market is to survive. Avoid the risk of ruin at all costs. Diversify. Hedge. Get some ideas from us!
