Reflection on Past Predictions: In hindsight, Louis Navellier’s 2023 prediction regarding the Democratic presidential nominee turned out to be eerily accurate.

Focused on unveiling potential chaos post-election, Louis Navellier’s upcoming event just before the turmoil hits is an attempt to guide investors through the stormy seas of the market.


“The enemy within”… these words, spoken by Donald Trump, cement the deeply divided nature of American politics.

Expressing the intense partisanship, Kamala Harris also warned of significant risks tied to a potential second Trump term.

The looming election isn’t just about choosing a leader; it’s about divergent visions of America’s future.

Expecting a clear victor on November 5 is overly optimistic – a belief akin to being sold a bridge.

Similar sentiments are echoed by billionaire investor, Ray Dalio, who raised concerns about the peaceful transition of power.

Whether it’s Trump or Harris contesting, chaos looms, and investors must remain vigilant.

Capitalizing on Market Volatility

In times of political upheaval, the stock market isn’t immune to the aftershocks.

Predictions point to the VIX, the market’s fear gauge, skyrocketing in the aftermath of the election, potentially offering substantial profit opportunities.

While unsettling for novice investors, these turbulent waters represent a chance for seasoned professionals to reap significant rewards.

History serves as a guide – the aftermath of the closely contested 2000 election left investors reeling, highlighting the need for preparation.

The Echo of Past Turmoil

The 2000 election, decided by a mere 537 votes in Florida, sparked chaos that enveloped the nation for 35 days.

Retracing history, the saga of ‘hanging chads’ and recounts resulted in a significant downturn in the stock market.

In the weeks surrounding the Supreme Court’s decision, the S&P 500 experienced sharp declines, leaving investors anxious and uncertain.

Comparing 2000 to the current political climate suggests that the market upheaval to come will dwarf past episodes.

As investors brace for potential chaos akin to 2000 or 2020, a unique blend of circumstances promises an unprecedented market rollercoaster.

Rising Above the Storm

While a contested election forms the core of looming turbulence, another factor looms large – intensifying market volatility.


Decoding Market Volatility: Fed’s Interest Rate Decision Post-Election

The upcoming week of the Federal Open Market Committee coincides with the momentous occasion of Election Day. While many individuals might gloss over this conjunction, it’s essential to note that the Fed made a peculiar adjustment to its meeting timetable several months earlier. The onset of next month’s two-day interest rate policy meeting has been shifted from November 5 to November 6.

One might ponder the rationale behind this scheduling shift. Could it be a strategic move to distance itself from any political undertones? Or perhaps, the Fed desires the flexibility to react promptly post the announcement of election results?

Come November 7, precisely at 2 p.m. Eastern Time, the Federal Reserve will disclose to the global audience its verdict on continuing to lower key interest rates and the extent of the reduction. Presently, the markets anticipate a quarter-point cut. Yet, there is a possibility of mirroring the half-point decrease announced back in September. On the other end of the spectrum, the rates might remain untouched.

Regardless of the outcome, these three uncertain market variables are slated to unfold following the election day. Ordinarily, Federal Reserve decisions wield significant influence on the market trajectory. However, against the backdrop of what is arguably labeled as the most contentious presidential election in contemporary history, the country finds itself perched on the edge of volatility.

Coping with Chaos: Navigating Market Turbulence

Within Wall Street circles, I am often referred to as a “quant.” My approach shuns speculative stock predictions and market forecasts; instead, I construct computer models designed to pinpoint stocks demonstrating robust growth rates and momentum. For over four decades, I have meticulously relied on these data-driven models, devoid of emotional biases, which has facilitated my consistent outperformance of the S&P 500 by a factor of 3-to-1 over 23 consecutive years.

During this illustrious tenure, I identified nascent investment opportunities in industry-dominating giants like Microsoft Corp. (MSFT) at $0.38, Apple Inc. (AAPL) at $0.37, and Nvidia Corp. (NVDA) at less than twenty-five cents, well before their explosive growth phase. While these successes belong to the annals of history, my more recent triumphs include trades in Rambus (RMBS) for a significant gain of 133% over 17 months, Super Micro Computer (SMCI) that yielded a remarkable 593% gain, and Gatos Silver (GATO) for a 45.6% profit within a month. Additionally, the trade for e.l.f. Beauty (ELF) generated a lucrative return of 68.5% over 16 months.

Amid the post-election market hysteria and escalating stock market volatility, my reliance on these tried-and-tested models remains unwavering as I strive to identify profitable opportunities amidst the chaos. The importance of robust systems, especially amidst market turbulence, cannot be understated. At this juncture, a particular model has caught my attention—it’s a product of substantial investment and was hitherto exclusive to large institutional investors and high-net-worth individuals.

However, I am delighted to extend access to this model to everyday investors ahead of Election Day, targeting lucrative profit avenues that often evade the common investor’s foresight. The specifics of this model will be unveiled during my “Day After Summit” on Tuesday, October 30, at 7 p.m. Eastern Time. This summit aims to equip individuals with the tools necessary to navigate the forecasted volatility and leverage this model to realize profits, culminating in a post-election trade that is engineered to pay off irrespective of the election outcome.

So, be sure to register for the summit for an invaluable insight into seizing market opportunities. Remember, amidst the tumultuous market swings, refrain from succumbing to panic-driven decisions and maintain confidence in your long-term holdings as a pathway to financial stability in the long run.

Ultimately, in the realm of investing, maintaining a steady hand amid uncertainty often emerges as the pathway to enduring success.
