Nasty day within the inventory market. I’ll have a lot to say about it on What Are Your Ideas?

I wish to spotlight Tom Lee’s go to to The Compound final Thursday.

It’s Monday afternoon, and the video has down 225,000 views. Now, a variety of this has to do with the market; the increased the VIX, the upper the clicks kind of factor. However the larger motive the video went mega nuclear is that Tom Lee has developed a fan base in monetary media like no one else in the course of the secular bull market over the past 15 years.

I noticed this unimaginable chart that exhibits the atmosphere we simply lived by has no parallel in US inventory market historical past, at the least going again to 1970.

Some will let you know that this has been a one-way prepare. That the experience was straightforward cash. And that Tom doesn’t deserve credit score for staying bullish in a bull market. That couldn’t be farther from the reality.

There have been:

• Fourteen 5-10% pullbacks

• Six 10-20% corrections

• And two bear markets the place shares fell greater than 20%

With detrimental information being rewarded by the algorithms that rule our world, Tom Lee has a ton of guts for remaining steadfastly bullish. That’s why Tom’s movies do numbers. It’s not that he’s 5x higher than all our different friends; it’s that he has 40x extra followers. His bullish posture has created a loyal military of followers that has compounded alongside the bull market. When folks advised you the market would tank, Tom advised you to purchase the dip. After they advised you there was a 100% likelihood of a recession, Tom advised you to purchase the dip.

And for Tom’s haters who’re hoping and praying for the inventory market to tank and that this look is the one which gained’t age properly, I hate to let you know, however Tom was not cavalier concerning the dangers at present going through us. He wasn’t bearish, however in all probability not as bullish as I’d’ve guessed.

Talking of fan bases, we’ve performed alright, too, due to the assistance of Tom and different unimaginable market folks.

Tom helped us crack the highest ten enterprise podcasts on Spotify for the primary time ever final week.
