  • Weekly Newsletter – Trending Stocks Continue Their Run. Are You Prepared For The Next Rally?

Welcome to our weekly newsletter, where we offer insights into stock setups that we share with our Phoenix members.

In recent weeks we have observed strength returning to the markets following September’s anticipated pullbacks. This week we have seen that strength result in a new round of all-time highs in the US indices and a long-awaited breakout from consolidation in the FTSE. As a result, our patience has been rewarded.

In this week’s newsletter, we focus on stocks that have rebounded strongly following September’s pullbacks and, in turn, demonstrate why trend trading is so powerful. 

Let’s get into this week’s newsletter!
