Survive the Trump Tank

It’s going to be another rough day on Wall Street thanks to Donald Trump’s tariffs.

But good stocks are falling alongside the bad — giving you an opportunity to buy top names at bargain prices.

And our team thinks a single announcement from the White House could stop the selloff in its tracks.

I’ll tell you more about it after our Top Stories and the Reader Forum.

Your Top Stories & Analysis of the Week:

• “This Tariff Stuff Is Bullsh*t” (Altucher Confidential, James Altucher): Tariffs are still top of mind. Investors are wondering what to do and how it will all end. But James isn’t scared at all. He says that most people don’t understand what the tariffs are really about. And once you see what Trump is trying to accomplish, you’ll also know why the market’s panic could be your gain. It’s no wonder this was our most-liked e-letter last week!

• “Private Equity’s Latest Target: Your Parents” (Rude Awakening, Sean Ring): Getting older is tough enough. But deep-pocketed investors are making it even harder — changing the rules on senior citizens living on fixed incomes. Sean explains why his parents no longer have to worry about this outrage. And he wants to warn everyone else, too. While this wasn’t Sean’s most-liked article (this one was), our team had high praise for it. Decide for yourself if it deserves a top spot.

• “Tap Trump’s $150 Trillion American Birthright Fund Now” (Jim Rickards’ Strategic Intelligence, Byron King): Forget all the talk about bear markets and recession. The tariffs are just another part of Donald Trump’s ultimate goal — to revitalize America’s industrial economy. And Step One is an Executive Order that most of Wall Street overlooked. So Bryon recently shared the truth with Strategic Intelligence members. This was our most-liked story last week, offering an optimistic view of the U.S. markets you’re not hearing anywhere else. That’s why I unlocked an excerpt of Byron’s analysis for you.

Remember, we publish tens to HUNDREDS of stories. The write-ups above are our TOP ones for the week — including one that had been roped off from the public. If you want to stay ahead of the pack, make sure you’re caught up now.

The Reader Forum:

First from the mailbag today, Mike H. follows up on Edward W.’s thoughts on Grok with his own experience using the artificial intelligence platform:

I used Grok to design an AI start-up in Iceland using the ice and volcanic activity to help keep operating costs down. Grok wrote a pitch deck for the AI project, gave me the names of top AI software engineers and what they might cost to work on the AI project. I believe that me and Grok could launch a new AI company successfully with minimum impact on the environment.

That’s amazing, Mike! Stories like this show that James Altucher and his team are really onto something — that artificial intelligence is set to revolutionize many aspects of our lives.

Let us know if you get your Grok-inspired company off the ground!

Speaking of James, Kevin W. wants him to know that:

You and your team are truly amazing, and I've been very happy with my paid subscription thus far. The thorough and detailed work you guys do along with updates and follow-ups on portfolio names cannot be appreciated enough! Thank you for all you do…

James and his team have seen this, Kevin. And I want to thank you for the kind words, too!

Our goal is to make sure you always have the information you need to protect your wealth and lock in maximum profits. You’ll never be left wondering what you should do with an open recommendation.

And that commitment to you is even more important today. With tariff fears causing stocks to tank, you don’t want to act rashly. Count on James and our entire team of analysts to offer level-headed analysis when you need it most!

Finally for today, Donna K. asks James:

Am I supposed to open a trading account through Paradigm? I don't see the info on the topic or how to get started. Others have hidden fees. Just a rip off. Trading for myself is best through whom?

I hope you’re reading this, Donna, because this is a fairly common question with a very simple answer.

Paradigm Press is a small, independent publisher. We only offer opinions, research and analysis. We don’t offer any financial services at all.

That’s why we created our Wealth Desk, a FREE library of reports to help you get started on your investment journey.

For example, if you want to follow our team’s stock recommendations, you’ll need to open a brokerage account.

“How to Choose the Best Brokerage Account for You” tells you about some of the biggest names in the business — jumpstarting your search.

And don’t worry if you’ve never bought a stock before, either. “Stock Investing 101: Buying, Selling and Earning Income” takes you through the basic steps of building a portfolio.

We’re planning to add more reports to the library soon. So let me know if there are any specific topics you’d like us to cover next!

That wraps up this week’s Reader Forum.

Now, here’s what’s happening around the water cooler this week…

The Water Cooler — Upcoming Events and More

Wall Street could be looking at the worst three-day selloff since 1987.

So our team is looking for bargains.

That’s because there isn’t any rhyme or reason to investors’ actions. People are dumping everything.

Even prices for “safe haven” investments like silver and gold fell… giving you another opportunity to buy in cheap.

We also don’t think it would take much to stop the market’s freefall.

The tariffs are designed to force countries to the negotiating table. And while some governments are committed to fighting back, others may be more willing to talk things out.

“The sooner Donald Trump makes a ‘good’ example of a country that commits to be more open to our exports,” says our Dan Amoss, “the sooner we’ll get a bounce in the market.”

Be ready to make a move when that happens!
