So far, commodities are crushing your ROI investment in the financial markets.
Take a look at this research by Visual Capitalist. Commodities and gold are the best performing asset classes of 2018 thus far. My questioning comes down to this – are we in a reset phase? Is a bear market in the S&P500 looming?
I think this report is a sure fire sign the financial markets are changing.

Banks care about making a profit. Period.
When an entire society functions soley for the virtue of making a monthly profit, all sorts of problems start to arise.
Harming the environment. Death by overwork (China). Yet many good things start to happening as well.

P.S. I like the format of presenting something I learned through my studies, then giving my own personal opinon on the research. Users can agree or dissagree in the comments. But keep cordial, chill, and thoughtful. Nobody likes getting banned 🙂
