Why I'm telling friends to avoid gold stocks (Ad)

Back in November, gold made a tiny move of 1.6%. But according to my backtesting by using a special type of gold trade, I would have seen a 141% gain in just a week. It happened again in March. Gold nudged up 1.2%. This time? A 104% overnight gain. And in June? A 1% gold move turned into a 74% gain in two weeks. Granted, there would have been smaller wins and those that did not work out, but you see, there's a reason I'm telling all my friends to hold off from buying gold or regular gold stocks right now. There's a more lucrative way to play the gold market as we enter a new breakout period. It's all about catching what I call "Acceleration Cycles."

And if you’d like to get your hands on this, here you go, the complete breakdown.

Nutrien
Bull Case

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Nutrien Ltd.:

Nutrien Ltd. recently increased its quarterly dividend from $0.54 to $0.939 per share, reflecting a strong commitment to returning value to shareholders. This increase represents an annualized yield of 8.05%, which is attractive for income-focused investors.
The company has a solid market capitalization of approximately $23.67 billion, indicating a stable financial position and the ability to invest in growth opportunities.
Despite recent downgrades from several analysts, Nutrien Ltd. has received a consensus rating of "Hold" with a price target around $60.06, suggesting potential for price appreciation from its current trading price of $47.93.
Nutrien Ltd. operates through multiple segments, including Retail, Potash, Nitrogen, and Phosphate, which diversifies its revenue streams and reduces dependency on any single market segment.
The company reported a revenue of $5.35 billion in its latest quarter, exceeding analysts' expectations, which indicates strong operational performance and demand for its products.

Nutrien
Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in Nutrien Ltd. for these reasons:

Nutrien Ltd. has experienced a decline in its stock price, which has dropped from a 1-year high of $60.87 to its current price of $47.93, indicating potential volatility and investor uncertainty.
The company reported a year-over-year revenue decrease of 5.0%, which may signal challenges in maintaining growth and could affect future earnings.
Analysts have issued multiple downgrades, with firms like UBS and Goldman Sachs reducing their price targets significantly, which may reflect a bearish outlook on the company's future performance.
The dividend payout ratio is notably high at 144.97%, suggesting that the company is paying out more in dividends than it is earning, which could be unsustainable in the long term.
With 63.10% of the stock owned by hedge funds and institutional investors, there may be less stability in the stock price due to potential large sell-offs by these entities.

Vacuum up cash with these special trades? (Ad)

Have you ever heard about a “volatility vacuum?” Most people haven’t. It all revolves around this formula right here. Now, the most important thing is that this equation — when applied to certain tickers at a certain time each month —- can trigger these “volatility vacuums.” And when that happens, anyone has the shot at sucking out payouts of $290, $350, even $1,350 in as little as 24 hours. (With just a $1k starting stake!) Granted, there were smaller wins and those that did not work out but best of all, we can know exactly when these opportunities will hit. I’ve used this info to create a Cash Calendar that lays out the precise dates of these payouts.

And I’m sending it for FREE to anyone who joins me during my FREE training right here.
