Will Stocks Soar after This Carnage?
By Dr. Steve Sjuggerud
Stocks have had a terrible 12 months… the second worst on record going back to 1950.
But does a terrible 12 months mean we should have great returns going forward?
Does the “law of averages” somehow kick in here? Does a bad year beget a good one? We crunched the numbers to find out…
At DailyWealth, we try to be optimistic. We believe opportunity always exists somewhere, and it’s our job to find it.
Of course, we know about all the bad things going on now. But we also know that great returns in stocks start in bad times. Stocks typically bottom right in the middle of recessions, for example. This recession has been going on for a while now… So are we at the middle of it yet? Is it time for stocks to soar?
Unfortunately, history doesn’t tell us what we want to hear…
A good analyst doesn’t start with a conclusion and look for facts to back it up. Instead, he looks at facts, and makes his conclusions. In this case, we looked at these facts to draw our conclusions: “rolling” 12-month returns on stocks and how they performed over the following one, three, and five years.
The reality is, stocks only performed worse than the 12 months prior just once since 1950, as measured by the S&P 500 and the Dow. That month was September 1974. Those 12 months were followed with a good 12 months… But the returns beyond that were pretty bad – nearly flat after the decent first year.
That’s only one example though. To get more, we had to dig deeper.
We had to go all the way back to the 1930s and the Dow. And once again, the results weren’t good… Since the 1930s were a terrible time for stocks, we had multiple 12-month periods just as bad as today. Twenty-nine(!) months in the 1930s had worse 12-month returns than what we just experienced. On average, the market was down 3% a year later.
Expanding the universe even more to the Nasdaq, many 12-month periods in 2001 had worse returns than the Nasdaq’s return over the last 12-months. Once again, after a terrible year, the average returns a year later were negative again. In short, 2002 was another bad year in U.S. stocks.
In both the Dow in the 1930s and the Nasdaq after 2001, the three-year and five-year returns were also subpar.
The conclusion is simple, and not what we expected to find…
When stocks have a terrible year – as bad or worse than the year we’ve just experienced – it doesn’t necessarily mean they’ll have a good performance in the following years. As they say, past performance is no guarantee of future results.
In DailyWealth, we’ll stick with what we’ve found works… buying exceptional value, when investors are extremely scared and we have the start of an uptrend in place.
Right now, we have the first two… but we’re still missing that legitimate uptrend.

What’s Gonna Happen Next?
We suggest you bank on value and sentiment (as Buffett says, “Be fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful”). And don’t give any credence to the notion that a good year must follow a terrible one.
Sticking with what works will keep you in the money.
Good investing,
Blogging has been around for a few years now. Most people use blogs to record their thoughts and lives, while the select few use them as a free way to make a fortune.
One guy who uses this to his advantage is Rob Benwell. In 2006 he dished the dirt on the tips and tricks to making a fortune using blogging. But as time passes the old systems become obsolete and new techniques are required. This is where his brand new, fresh off the press Blogging to the Bank 3.0 system comes into play.
For those who know who Rob Benwell is like me, you’ve probably made a killing using blogs.
For those who don’t, he’s the story:
Back in 2005 he was struggling to make any profit online, had dropped out of college and was getting deep into debt. He was trying all the techniques the gurus tell you and wasn’t getting anywhere fast. All of that went in the bin and he started using his own techniques and started making more and more money using simple blogs. In early 2006 he shared this with the world and had a great ebook called blogging to the bank. Tons of people got rich from using these techniques (including me). He then spoke at Online Marketing Legend Yanik Silver’s underground Seminar where he revealed even more of his underground strategies. Then July 2007 he released Blogging to the Bank 2.0 which showed users his new methods to creating online wealth using blogs. In total both versions have been read by over 50,000 people across the world.
But as I said earlier, the techniques used in these ebooks are now showing there age. Some of them are not even working in the slightest! This is where blogging to the bank 3.0 comes into play.
It’s full of great new techniques that work online right now! Everything’s explained in plain English with all the fluff cut out. I got hold of an advanced copy of the book for a much higher price than what it actually sells for and it has been worth every single cent! I got it in the afternoon and by the evening I was creating new profitable blogs. Within a couple of hours of them being active I had made a nice little profit.
Blogging To The Bank 3.0 teaches you Robs new step by step blueprint to creating highly profitable long term niche blogs using the newest optimization techniques. There’s even a section on advanced Search Engine Optimization. Most people think SEO is difficult but Rob explains this nice and simply so even the blogging newbie will understand it.
Blogging To The Bank 3.0 is a breath of fresh air and I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to make easy money online.
