 As 2008 winds down and a new administration takes up residence in Washington, D.C., I want to give you five trading strategies that I believe are compelling trades and are direct beneficiaries of the changes that are coming. While no one can predict exactly when this market will bottom or when the economy will recover, there's still money to be made by savvy traders at a time when constant change and volatility present unique, short-term trading opportunities. As this year comes to a close, we have the chance to trade some big-league companies that are priced like call options. It's like having a perpetual call on a multi-billion dollar generating company when its stock is trading for $5 at the bottom of a correction or at a major transition point for the company itself. It's also a chance to ride short-term momentum up (or down) and get out with trading profits while long-term investors continue to suffer in the ongoing financial meltdown. So read on for 5 Red-Hot Trading Strategies to put to work as 2009 approaches. |
