This Decision Will Dominate the News in the Coming Weeks

By Justin Brill
Saturday, May 27, 2017

 Regular readers know Steve Sjuggerud's "Melt Up" thesis isn't his only big contrarian call of late. He's also incredibly bullish on China.
 
Now, it appears others are beginning to wake up to this opportunity, too... This week, news service Reuters reported Chinese stocks had their best day in months. From the article...
 
China stocks rose sharply on Thursday, as the blue-chip CSI300 index posted its best day in more than nine months despite the surprise decision by Moody's to downgrade the country's sovereign credit rating a day earlier...
 
The blue-chip CSI300 index rose 1.8%, its biggest gain since Aug. 15, and ended at 3,485.66, its highest close in more than a month. The Shanghai Composite Index advanced 1.4% to 3,107.83...
 
The strongest performers in China's markets on Thursday were banking and real estate stocks, whose indexes jumped 3.3% and 4%, respectively.

 Steve has, of course, recommended some of the same stocks and sectors. But we didn't bring this up to simply make that note...
 
This report is also among the first from any mainstream outlets to cite several of the bullish factors Steve has been telling readers about for months. In particular, the report highlighted a major event coming up in just a few weeks...
 
Expectations were building that MSCI will announce China's inclusion in its Emerging Markets Index when it issues its annual classification review on June 20.
 
Snubbing China last year, MSCI cited concerns over share suspension rules and monthly limits on repatriating capital.
 
China Securities Co., a brokerage, said in a report on Wednesday: "The chance of an A-share inclusion into MSCI has risen drastically for 2017"... JP Morgan, China International Capital Corp, and BlackRock have also expressed optimism over prospects that A shares could be included by MSCI this year.

This should sound familiar to Steve's subscribers. It's exactly what he has predicted... And it's one of the biggest reasons he's bullish on China today.
 
Inclusion would mean hundreds of billions – or even trillions – of dollars moving into Chinese stocks over the next several years... And this week's news is a sign that Steve's thesis is catching on.
 
Expect to hear even more about Chinese stocks as next month's decision approaches.
 
 Meanwhile... what did you think about our live event Wednesday night?
 
Thousands of folks joined us for our roundtable discussion, "The Day the Bull Market Will End," with Porter, Steve, and TradeStops founder Dr. Richard Smith.
 
If you were among them, we hope you'll agree it was one of the best events we've held to date.
 
Porter and Steve kicked things off by sharing their latest thoughts on the market. They also addressed the "conflict" between Porter's bearish views and Steve's bullish views.
 
The fact is, Porter and Steve's views aren't as different as they might appear. But this week's event provided even more clarity. For example, Porter noted that despite his warnings, his investment recommendations have remained relatively bullish...
 
Look at The Total Portfolio that I manage. We're 90% long... Look at my Stansberry's Investment Advisory portfolio... It's probably more than 90% long.
 
What I'm telling you is you should be prepared for problems. You should be ready to sell. And you should hedge.
 
I'm not saying – and I have never said in any newsletter anywhere, not even in June 2008 when I sold half the portfolio – sell everything... I've never said anything like that...
 
But if you knew in June 2008 that Fannie and Freddie were going to fail... that investment banks were going to roll over and have big problems... that there was going to be a crisis, you were better prepared as an investor. No doubt about it.
 
So, what's wrong about telling you about the risks that I see... and then giving you sensible, conservative advice about how to allocate? That's all I'm saying...
 
I am very cautiously long the market. Steve is less cautiously long the market and expecting more out of it. There's no great divergence in those views.

If you've accused us of "playing both sides," this discussion was not to be missed.
 
 But it only got better from there...
 
Richard explained how his proprietary TradeStops service can help you maximize your gains and minimize your losses... whether you side with Porter, Steve, or anywhere in between. Among the things touched on were...
 
•   How to safely play a potential Melt Up in stocks...
   
•   How to know with a high degree of certainty when the long bull market is finally over...
    
•   Exactly when to sell some of the most popular and best-performing stocks in the market, including Apple (AAPL), Microsoft (MSFT), Facebook (FB), Berkshire Hathaway (BRK-B), Johnson and Johnson (JNJ), Hershey (HSY), among others...
    
•   How to know when it's safe to get back into stocks you've stopped out of...
    
•   The single most important consideration when making a new investment (which has nothing to do with which stocks you buy or even when you buy them) and...
    
•   An unbelievably simple way to make much more money on the stocks you already own.

Richard also revealed two brand-new TradeStops tools for the first time...
 
These new tools will allow virtually anyone to invest alongside some of the best and brightest investors in the world... or better yet, to create your own "perfect" portfolio from the best recommendations from the entire universe of research you read.
 
 Of course, we know not everyone was able to attend... So if you missed this week's event, don't worry. For a limited time, you can view a full replay right here.
 
Richard has also agreed to extend a generous, limited-time offer to all Stansberry Research readers... In short, for the next few days, he'll let you "test drive" his TradeStops service for yourself, absolutely risk-free for two full months.
 
You can use his exclusive TradeStops tools to check the risk in your current portfolio... find out if there are any stocks, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), or even options you should sell immediately... and quickly and easily "risk rebalance" your entire portfolio. And again, there's absolutely no obligation.
 
If you aren't completely satisfied, Richard will give you a full refund. And if you choose to subscribe, you can lock in one of the biggest discounts he has ever offered on this service. Click here to start your no-risk trial today. (Please note: This offer expires soon.)
