Mass human psychology is ready to make those New Year's resolutions,
with many of those involving investing, taking shape around the nearly 30 % return in the S+P 500 in 2019.
Now those who were left out...
those who did not receive those outsize gains this year,
with one simple decision to invest in an S+P 500 Index Fund or ETF,
will no doubt feel the NEED to get into the stock market in 2020,
....without any further delay.
And perhaps all at once !
The feeling of being left out of the spoils,
that everyone else is receiving carte blanche,..is a very powerful psychological emotion.
It is thus it's very hard for investors ,
to turn their back on a market that has done others such good.
So into the market they will plunge.
And most will attempt to do the exact same thing that worked in 2019.
To simply to BUY an Index Fund in 2020,and then sit back and wait for the harvest.
I mean its so simple, even a fool could make money in this market is the common perception.
However,when everyone is obsessed with the stock market
and finding the next "very hot stock" that could make them a fortune overnight,
instinctively, you know something is very wrong.
The New Years Resolution
that potentially could work beyond your wildest imagination
is simply called "THE BIG SHORT"
Simply put,it involves the exact opposite tact,
finding yourself an index fund or ETF that will SHORT the S+P 500 in 2020.
Human psychology can and will turn on a dime,..at a moments notice.
There is no reason to believe.. that that possibility, can not happen again .
