According to the &ldquo;experts,&rdquo; it&rsquo;s more resistant to the various vaccines, and it&rsquo;s more infectious.<\/p>\n<p>So, lots of folks are worried about another wave of illnesses, renewed mask mandates, another bout of lockdowns and travel restrictions, and another stock market crash.<\/p>\n<p>I&rsquo;m not a doctor. And, I&rsquo;m not a public policy expert. So, I won&rsquo;t comment on most of those concerns.<\/p>\n<p>But, I have traded stocks for nearly 40 years. And, I can offer some advice if you think the market is set up for a crash&hellip;<\/p>\n<p>Don&rsquo;t worry about it.<\/p>\n<p>That&rsquo;s not to say the market won&rsquo;t crash. It very well might do just that. What I&rsquo;m saying, though, is that traders shouldn&rsquo;t waste time and energy worrying about a crash. Instead, they should have a plan to prepare for it and to take advantage of one if it happens.<\/p>\n<p>You see, while investors can make a lot of money during <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jeffclarktrader.com\/glossary\/#bullish\">bull<\/a> markets, it&rsquo;s the decisions you make during the turbulent times that can make you rich.<\/p>\n<p>For example, the financial crisis of 2008 created the worst stock market environment in a generation. But, it was one of my best years ever.<\/p>\n<p>In my trading newsletter, subscribers earned 100% or more on 10 different recommendations. And, we did this at a time when the broad stock market was cut in half.<\/p>\n<p>How did we do it?<\/p>\n<table bgcolor=\"#eeeeee\" border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"10\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"border: 1px solid #D7D7D7; margin-bottom:20px;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding-left: 15px;padding-right: 15px; padding-top: 15px; font-family: Arial,sans-serif;font-size:17px; line-height:24px;\">\n<p align=\"center\" style=\"-ms-text-size-adjust: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: none; margin-bottom: 20px; font-size: 18px;\"><strong>Free Trading Resources<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"-ms-text-size-adjust: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: none; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 0px\">Have you checked out Jeff&#8217;s free trading resources on his website?

We saw the crisis unfolding, and we had a game plan to profit from the situation.<\/p>\n<p>Most investors don&rsquo;t see corrections coming. They stay fully invested and then get wiped out when the crisis hits. So, they don&rsquo;t have the cash to go bargain shopping after stocks fall. Or, if they do have the cash, they&rsquo;re often too paralyzed by fear to put the money to work.<\/p>\n<p>Having a plan in place ahead of time changes all of that. It creates the chance to profit on some amazing opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>I don&rsquo;t know if the delta variant is going to cause another stock market crash similar to what we saw last year. Frankly, I don&rsquo;t think it will.<\/p>\n<p>But, there are any number of other factors that could create some turbulence. In fact, I think the market is setting up for a longer-term period that&rsquo;s going to be very difficult for the typical &ldquo;buy-and-hold&rdquo; investor. And, I suspect most folks are unprepared for that.<\/p>\n<p>That&rsquo;s why tomorrow evening, July 22 at 8 p.m. ET, I&rsquo;ll be hosting <a href=\"https:\/\/signup.jeffclarktrader.com\/?cid=MKT557236&#038;eid=MKT559407&#038;step=start&#038;plcid=PLC107978\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a FREE live training session on how to profit during turbulent times<\/a>.
