	*March 1, 2021* *Stock Market Outlook: "head-smacking craziness in the American stock market"* Preview from my weekly report* Our asset management clients have made significantly positive relative returns while taking much less risk. We offer complete transparency, anytime access to your funds, and low fees. You keep control over your money. See: *ColbyAssetManagement.com* To summarize the current situation, stock prices fell further last week as investors appeared to grow more apprehensive about irrational speculation fueled by reckless government spending and printing of fiat currency backed by nothing but "trust us". History shows that faith in governments has limits. Hard to say exactly when that might happen, but we want to be ready for anything in 2021 because, like 2020, anything could happen. Above all, we want to be safe and survive, because that always is the most important thing. Meanwhile, the smartest people in the room are becoming more vocal. Michael Burry, "The Big Short" hedge fund manager who made hundreds of millions short selling subprime mortgage instruments in 2008, warned of hyperinflation. "We believe that hindsight will show the champion of head-smacking craziness in the American stock market to be the period playing out right now,” writes Paul Elliott Singer, billionaire founder of Elliott Management hedge fund. A "flamboyant line-up" of excesses will come back to haunt investors. Legendary investor Jim Rogers warned about negative effects of enormous money printing on financial asset prices and the purchasing power of fiat currencies. Warren Buffett, chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, writes, "Investing illusions can continue for a surprisingly long time. Wall Street loves the fees that deal-making generates, and the press loves the stories that colorful promoters provide... Eventually, of course, the party ends, and many business 'emperors' are found to have no clothes... Bonds are not the place to be these days... Fixed-income investors worldwide – whether pension funds, insurance companies or retirees – face a bleak future." Charlie Munger, Vice Chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, said he is critical of recent "wild speculation" in stocks, which he says is more gambling than investing. “I think all of this activity is regrettable. I think civilization would do better without it.” *Our full report reviews indicators that we monitor every day and offers clear and unbiased guidance on the following each week:* Global stock markets The Defensive stock sectors The Health Care sector The Cyclical sectors The Technology sector The Financials sector U.S. bonds and notes Commodities (Oil, Metals, Agriculture) Objective Quantitative Rankings for hundreds of Exchange Traded Funds Now is the time to take action.

Analysis of market forces may offer a sense of probabilities. But the many variables that can impact market prices are notoriously difficult to predict. And, market analysis is something less than an exact science. So, sound trading tactics are always recommended. See my Money Management Rules. According to CFTC Rule 4.41, hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not been executed, the results may have under- or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profit or losses similar to those shown. Trading and investing involve risk of significant loss.
