Starting a This is the Way Series as a way to demonstrate the application of how to read, listen, and TIME markets to realize double-digit, annualized returns. This series of posts will have far less in number of posts than KTS until it catches up much later when we can apply layered lessons to reduce risk. Make sense? As you recall, I used KTS #2 to consistently beat the S&P500. It is a stock-free approach (ETF only) that can stand alone without any other KTS lessons. So I share now. I no longer use this as I, instead, realize even greater returns by investing in the workhorse stocks within the select ETFs. Nonetheless, this will be my first demonstration (aside from my stocks in my portfolio, which you can see in near real-time) since many here love their ETFs and it can be "hands-on" into observing the approach. For the first few months, I will purposely not explain the rationale for buying and selling - which and when - on the ETFs. It is always a goal to transfer the knowledge by teaching how to fish vs. giving fish. Many of the KTS readers have been following/applying new tools and concepts from KTS - and experimenting on their own with great success. It is my hope they start looking into this in the same way before we just reveal. So here we go: (1) I will make all Buy/Sells for this demonstration as "This is the Way...." (2) This demonstration will go one year, from 04/29/24 - 04/29/25. (3) The approach requires selling out the entire position when we sell, holding ALL proceeds in cash, and then repurchasing the same ETF at a later TIME with ALL CAP holdings from the prior sale. Got it? So for 1 year, the $ invested and gained will be dedicated to buying and selling in/out of the ETF. You will be surprised how it isn't traded constantly. (3) I will only buy/sell a single share of two different ETFs as I TIME the market. The purpose is to demonstrate returns (%) over TIME - and the transactions will be clearly detailed. (Again, I use my capital for underlying stocks now since I 'graduated'.....and I can't have this ETF approach diluting my returns over TIME!😅🤣😂). Ok - so here we go. Right now, just bought: (1) 1 share of XME ($XME) @ $60.85 (2) 1 share of XES ($XES) @ $92.66 KTS readers are likely not surprised at these these ETF choices.....but that's the idea - play into the sector strength of the cycle! 😉 I will record these transactions and carry a running post of the recorded transactions so you can check in on it from time to time. THIS IS THE WAY! 😅

Not related to this post but I think you said somewhere in your earlier post that we could witness dividend increase in the meltup phase as a way to secure or lure investor (I think you were talking for the real estate sector). But i’m wondering if the recent news of google adding a dividend can be explain - at least partly - by this desire to hide problems that are to come? Thanks 🙏🏿
