The past few days haven't been fun for stock market investors! I bet many of your recent investments have entered the red zone. I don't think what we have experienced in the past few days is a market crisis. After all, the overall stock market was down just a few percentages (Nasdaq is down 2.9% and the S&P 500 is down 1.7% in the last five days). That's not a crisis by any definition, but the vibe in the media is crisis-like. Be it for getting you to click on those articles or hooking you to watch their YouTube channels, the media likes to spread fear. You've heard sex sells? Well, fear sells better! But, we, the Stock Card community, know better!
I have to admit, seeing that red, downward arrow in front of my favorite tickers and companies is painful! Losing money is never not painful! But, we, the Stock Card community, know better! Why do we know better? Because of what we have accomplished together through our Beaten Down portfolio. Remember December 2018 and early January 2019? Do you remember how the vibe was of nothing short of 'the end is near'? Well, we tamed the emotions, looked into our existing portfolios and watchlists and in the course of just a few weeks, we created a portfolio of 8 to 10 companies that were beaten down for no reason other than the doom and gloom stories of the day. If you've invested alongside us, even with the price falls of the past few days, that portfolio is up 15%, upping the market by 2 times. Nothing explains what we have achieved better than this quote from Shelby M.C. Davis: History provides a crucial insight regarding market crises: they are inevitable, painful and ultimately surmountable. Now, my fellow investors, I'm interrupting The Green Fund's weekly VIP pick for the month of May, to remind you of the fact that all bad days of the stock market are inevitable, painful and surmountable. That means once again we are refreshing the Beaten Down portfolio with three fresh VIP picks to take advantage of the market fears now! Last week we launched The Green Fund. And, the market has decided to test our intelligent ways of investing! Most of our picks in the portfolio are a bit down due to a variety of reasons, none indicating any changes in the future market potential. Mark - The Green Fund's portfolio publisher - and I have been discussing this topic for a while now. The fluctuation of the stock prices in the cannabis sector is given and investors who are picking up shares alongside The Green Fund should be ready for even larger ups and downs. But, when the stock prices are down, we can't help ourselves but get excited. It's great when the prices are down because we get to nibble a bit more at a lower price. Who doesn't like to pay less for something he or she wants to have and hold it for a long time? Today's Stock Card VIP pick is an embodiment of what cannabis investing is all about: massive growth opportunity and large stock price swings! Ask your cannabis investing questions to Mark - The Green Fund portfolio publisher
Join me for a free, live Q&A session with Mark Bernberg - publisher of The Green Fund portfolio on Stock Card's portfolio store, founder of a cannabis-focused company by the same name, and a successful technology entrepreneur and investor. This is a chance for you to get answers to all your cannabis-investing questions and decide whether investing in pot stocks is for you. Submit your questions, and reserve your seat: Wayne Gretzky famously said that one should not skate to where the puck is, but rather to where the puck is going to be. The cannabis industry is where the puck is going to be. Today we are launching Stock Card's The Green Fund. It's a portfolio managed by Mark Bernberg, a successful technology entrepreneur and the founder of TheGreenFund.com and an avid stock market investor who shares the vision of investing in well-managed companies in growing industries. You can get to know Mark and learn his insightful thoughts and ideas related to the states of valuations, regulations and fluctuations in our latest episode of Renegade Investors podcast. Why cannabis sector? Isn't it just a commodity, agricultural product, a hyped-up group of companies that make no money? Au contraire mon amis ... These days, anyone who touches the cannabis industry is applauded by the investors. Take Shopify (Ticker: SHOP). This Canadian company has been at the forefront of cannabis eCommerce and the investors have praised the company with gold. The stock price has been up significantly in the past few months as the result of the green rush. But, when it comes to The Green Fund, we are going beyond the rush! We have been working with Mark - The Green Fund's portfolio publisher - to pick up six companies for this portfolio, to start with. We've researched several cannabis companies, and despite the outstanding growth each of these companies has had in the past few months and quarters, they are still poised to grow further from where they are standing today. Over the next four weeks, we will add one new stock to the portfolio, and once the month is over, we will add new companies to the portfolio as and when Mark discovers them. Usually, we introduce just a few stocks per theme. But, because the cannabis stocks are volatile, investing in only one stock may not be such a good idea unless you are sure that emotionally you can tolerate the volatility. Mark decided to give you a few well-managed companies so that you can spread your investment in the sector.
The good news is that with the launch of The Green Fund, we are also introducing a new "Portfolio Follow" feature. Just like how you used to follow individual Stock Card,s you can now follow any portfolio, and you will get notified by email when new companies are added or removed from each of the Stock Card's portfolios on the Portfolio Store. The video below shows you how: We have arrived in the last week of the Emerging India investment theme. Since the launch of this theme, we've talked about three ways to participate in the rapidly growing Indian economy and the stock market:
But first, let us share a few updates:
Moving onto today's VIP pick, it is a world leader from India that helps several clients from all around the world to discover, analyze, improve, and automate business processes.
Today's VIP pick is the third addition to our Emerging India portfolio which is our investment theme for April. This time, we have explored the new and growing market of online travel industry in India. Currently, only 10 to 15% of the travel spend is going through online channels. As the Indian's middle class is growing, the digital payment becomes a possibility, and more people access the smart devices to connect to the internet, the online travel industry in the country is ready to take off. Today's Stock Card VIP pick gives you a chance to invest in Booking.com or Ctrip.com of India before they become the talk of the town. But before we begin with today's VIP pick, we wanted to give you an early sneak peek into what's coming in May to the Portfolio Store. Wayne Gretzky - legendary hockey player - famously said that one should not skate to where the puck is, but rather to where the puck is going to be. And, the upcoming theme to the Portfolio Store is an embodiment of Wayne's wisdom. Get ready for The Green Fund! A new portfolio focused on the cannabis industry. In May, we will welcome you to the green rush! As always, this new investment theme is powered by Stock Card's mistake-free investment research, with a new surprise. The Cannabis portfolio is put together for you by the founder of TheGreenFund.com, Mark Bernberg, a long-time friend of Stock Card and the latest addition to the Portfolio Publishers at Stock Card. You will hear a lot more about Mark, The Green Fund, and Stock Card's latest investment theme in May. Stay tuned! For now, there are more goodies in the bag for you! Back to the Emerging India portfolio. As we said, today's Stock Card VIP pick gives you a chance to invest in Booking.com or Ctrip.com of India, before they become the talk of the town. You can easily find and read the usual information and analysis you need to know on the companies' Stock Card and the Team's decision editorial section of the company's Stock Card.
