It has been found that 70-80% of purchasing decisions are made based on referrals.This is very much so within selected social circles and it is to take advantage of this phenomenon that email marketing has become a very effective tool in digital marketing.Employing email marketingThe SEO company that you select would have the required databases to help you to bring the required digital marketing messages through their email marketing and other strategies employed.Planning email strategiesEmail strategies like any other marketing initiatives have to be well planned, initiated and conducted to bring the required results. Monitoring it regularly and revising it if the need be is the prerogative of the SEO service provider which would work for your brand.Implementing effective strategiesEvery marketing strategy should be qualitative and meet the set objectives of the brand. The target audience should be carefully selected and the campaign carried out. Targeting the selected audience and consistently making inroads is sure to bring results if not in the short term, could in the medium and long-term. This would primarily depend on the campaign that was carried out.Monitoring campaignsThe advantage in digital marketing is that every campaign can be closely monitored and the behavior patterns studied for deficiencies and if so corrective measures taken immediately. </p><div class="mads-block"></div>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://wspnlms.info/10-services-you-can-expect-from-a-reputed-digital-marketing-company/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>The Need To Immediately Arrest The Technological Skills Deficiency of New University Entrants</title> <link>https://wspnlms.info/the-need-to-immediately-arrest-the-technological-skills-deficiency-of-new-university-entrants/</link> <comments>https://wspnlms.info/the-need-to-immediately-arrest-the-technological-skills-deficiency-of-new-university-entrants/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 30 Mar 2023 15:07:05 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://wspnlms.info/?p=58</guid> <description><![CDATA[Universities are gradually evolving and moving from the purely traditional system to the modern technological induced system.

The rate of this technology driven state of universities globally is unprecedented. This makes it imperative for new entrants who are not abreast with information and communication technology (I.C.T.) skills to catch up at relatively short times. Thus, an immediate orientation course in I.C.T. targeted at developing the competencies of students in coping with the technologically charged university environment must be a prerogative of universities. This would aid in boosting teaching and learning activities at the universities while maximizing the expected behavioral change in learners after their education at the university.The course activities at the universities today are streamlined in technology. For instance, the teaching and learning materials are now in electronic formats. These e-resources must be downloaded by students from specific websites given by the lecturer.Sometimes, some lecturers hold virtual classes online with their students due to geographical constraints due to emergency workshops, conferences, and meetings. In addition, numerous assignments require that students carry out extensive research using online databases. These assignments are mostly to be submitted electronically to the electronic mailing address of the lecturer or uploaded on a virtual platform created by the lecturer or institution. Thus, if a student is deficient in I.C.T. skills, how can s/he cope with this technologically induced university environment?Some may bicker that students at the Senior High school level were required to take lessons in I.C.T. to cushion them for the tertiary education steeped in technology. True this may be, the majority of the students at the High school level were not privileged to have had this opportunity due to many challenges. This may be as a result of the lack of technological accouterments as well as qualified instructor in the field to better handle the instruction delivery. These pool of students at most local communities and some urban centers are thus, highly deficient in technology. When they find their way to the universities, they meet an entirely unfriendly environment full of technology which they must speedily get abreast with all by themselves. Fast learners are able to learn these I.C.T. skills quickly from friends who were privileged to technological training while slow and shy students’ ends up throwing in the towel to university education.Others experience the first attack of unfair grading as the primary by-product of their deficiency in technological skills. Sadly, these ‘snail-to-technology’ students are objects of ridicule by their colleagues and some lecturers who are technology-privileged. This is much experienced when group assignment and presentations are to be carried out on virtual platforms. Demoralized students usually fall prey to absenteeism to lectures that are solely technology grounded. This gap that exists between students who are able in technology and those who are deficient must be bridged.An immediate remedy would be the organization of I.C.T. lessons tailored to meet the requirements and expectations of students at the university. This short course or orientation must be carried out in the very first week of student’s admittance to the university. It can even be scheduled as part of the orientation sessions usually promulgated at virtually all universities globally. This training aimed at endowing new entrants with basic skills in I.C.T. would help them to be able to cope and succeed in their newly found technologically induced environment.Tertiary institutions must make it a priority to organize this I.C.T. lessons since the traditional face of universities is being fast transformed into technology-induced condition. This great feat would aid in beefing up academic work at the universities while arresting the ill of truancy on the part of students due to lack of technological skills. </p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://wspnlms.info/the-need-to-immediately-arrest-the-technological-skills-deficiency-of-new-university-entrants/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Used Entertainment Centers</title> <link>https://wspnlms.info/used-entertainment-centers/</link> <comments>https://wspnlms.info/used-entertainment-centers/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Mon, 27 Feb 2023 17:30:07 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://wspnlms.info/?p=55</guid> <description><![CDATA[The term, entertainment center refers to a self-contained unit that houses televisions, DVD players, radios and other electronic appliances.

An entertainment center can be built like a wall unit and is generally placed in a living room, family room or a recreation room. Many people, who cannot afford an expensive, new entertainment center, choose to purchase a used one.Entertainment centers have come along way and are no longer considered a luxury item. Many people view them as an important, utility-oriented piece of furniture. However, the prices of most new models are still very high and beyond the reach of budget-conscious buyers. Buyers do have the option of purchasing a used entertainment center. It is important to know the various kinds of entertainment centers available before buying a used one. Entertainment centers can be either traditional or modern in design. They are normally made of wood panels with drawers and compartments to house CDs, videotapes and other items.When shopping for a used entertainment center, it is highly likely that buyers may find an armoire set up as an entertainment center. Armoires are usually passed down from one generation to another and have sentimental value attached to them as a family heirloom. These pieces typically cost a fortune. Many people look for a used entertainment center because of the cost factor. It is possible for them to buy a bigger and more functional entertainment center at a lower price. A homeowner can easily pick up a used entertainment center at a nominal price, and with a bit of polish and minor changes, it will look as good as new.Anyone buying a used entertainment center has to inspect the piece before purchasing it. It is important to note whether defects can be easily fixed before proceeding with the deal. </p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://wspnlms.info/used-entertainment-centers/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Guide to Right Investments</title> <link>https://wspnlms.info/guide-to-right-investments/</link> <comments>https://wspnlms.info/guide-to-right-investments/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Fri, 03 Feb 2023 15:01:17 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://wspnlms.info/?p=53</guid> <description><![CDATA[As an individual we all have targets and set goals in our finances, hence adequate information to the right investment is very important.

Considering the fact that good investments help us to actualize our objectives in our education, career, capital projects, family needs, etc, then it’s imperative for us to understand these investments.Presently, we are faced with the recovery of the economy after experiencing the global economic meltdown for more than two years of economic impasse. In most African countries, especially Nigeria do not seem to get on a good start as the government has limited funds to inject into the economy (Capital market) unlike other developed nations of the world are currently doing. Therefore, there’s a need for us to make the right decision at this trying period. There are different types of Investments available to us; Savings, Insurance, Bonds, Equities and Stocks, FOREX, Real Estates, Importation and Exportation, and what have you. These may sound interesting, but we must look before we make decisions in our chosen investments.For most people, making the right investment decision can be a tough one. They assume that you need enough money to venture into a lucrative business. It is always a good idea to do some research before you can make a decision as to what you want to invest in. This is better achieved the most when you gather information on your type of investment because you want to make the right investments that would work best for you. It is financially wise for you to know the investment basics so that you will be in a position to have variety of choices. Is this where the use of funds comes in? It is advisable that you use your savings especially if you plan to invest in long term. Moreover, you do not need a lot to get into investing though; you can use your monthly savings and investing consistently. The Stocks and shares option is one of the most popular and profitable business.Also investing in Insurance policy is another guaranteed way of investing without having fear for drop in market price. Unlike the stock market, Insurance is a sure way of getting your money back with a certain accumulated interest over a stipulated period of time that is if there have not been any occurrences before the maturity date. This however, would be discussed exclusively in my subsequent articles.The mutual fund investment option is yet another form of investing whereby organizations collect money from different individuals and use it to venture into suitable quoted company stock at the right time.This reduces your risk of losing money since you are not directly investing in the stock market. You should look out for all loop holes and engage the services of a financial expert to help you make suitable investment choices.Before we delve into the various investments stated above properly, there is a need to highlight the basic Principles of Investments that would be our guide to a successful venture. I shall discuss 5 of these proven principles that would guide us through;The first investment principle we must know is to get the foundation right of any investments plan and all the hiccups we envisaged or encountered would be checked. The problem most people have is that they try to solve their challenges from the surface. It is easy for one to quickly take a pain relieving tablets to stop his toothache problems without knowing the cause. Alright let’s look at our business transactions as an instance. A growing businessman borrows money from his fellow business men to build his business venture. By doing this overtime he became heavily indebted. But in order to be free from his indebtedness, he quickly pays his debts without ever considering the fact that his greatest weakness could be poor financial (money) management. In Nigeria today, an average 60 percent of the population are into entrepreneurship in one business or the other yet most of them have little idea of their venture which accounts for low returns in profit every quarter. This dismay performance could only be attributed to their poor knowledge of the said business, hence the business foundation is lacking. In addressing such situations, understanding the roots of these investments<br />would place us on the driver’s sit to know where and how to make great returns on our investmentsThe second principle simply tells us to set values in our investments’ plan and life goals generally as a yard stick to take us to our desired expectations. Values are internal anchors we set ahead of time to guide us in time of decisions making. It is also important to note that in our individual offices and business places, values we set for ourselves would determine the future and success of our careers and business ventures. According to Hamel, G. in “Rethinking the basis for Competition” in (Gibson, R (ed) Re-thinking The Future, Nicholas Brealey Publishing, London pp. 76-92 he says that “the big challenge in creating the future is not predicting the future. Instead, the goal is to try to imagine a future that is plausible – a future that you create based on values.” As matter of fact, we must place great values on our investments and businesses for it to grow beyond limits.On the third principles of investments, we must draw out our investments plans and strategy. One does not expect a high dividend as a return on your investments from a quoted company if you don’t invest well on that company. In any investment we do, there is need to know the strategy to adopt in getting good returns. Let’s look at the stock market for instance, you would not be foolish to invest in First Bank PLC in the Nigerian Stock Exchange that has reached its’ bullish state when you know most investors are bailing out after a period of planting then smiling to the banks for a good investment. You have to understand the investment first (foundation) then adopt a particular plan or strategy that would suit it for a stipulated period. That is why; Sun Tzu, great author, posits that “the General who wins the battle makes many calculations in his temple before the battle is fought while the General who losses make but few calculations beforehand”. You should know that whatever plans or strategy you make does not really guarantee you success as it may not suit the kind of investments you are into but get the right information to guide you through. Hence, you are advised to invest in financial books, business tips or any investment instruments to put you ahead of your contemporaries. By doing this, you must have drawn an investment philosophy that includes your; aim, period, returns and interest of your investments.The fourth Principles would centre on our spiritual strength in business. Knowing that sometimes we face all sorts of problems and setbacks in our investments or business activities, we may not have the physical power to overcome them. To be realistic, we need to look up to God by committing our businesses in His hands irrespective of our religion or faith. According to the Book of Proverbs; “If God can see everything in the world of the dead, he can also see in our hearts.” If we commit our ways to God, He would direct our paths. We should always seek Him when faced with any problems. I also suggest you renew your minds with great spiritual and inspirational materials. Great authors like; T.D. Jakes, John Mason, Joyce Meryce, Mathew Ashimolowo, Dale Carnegie, etc have wonderful works that can nourish our soul and make us achievers even in the face of adversity. You would find out that what you consider as problems are not problems, but some stumbling blocks you encountered as challenges to your road to success.The last Principles of investments which is the fifth, has to do with you as an individual. As a child while growing up, we all aspired to be one great professional in our chosen field. That’s the reason why Education could be adjudged as the highest form of investment. I must say that that most professionals or CEOs these days don’t utilize five percent of their brain. With the latest technologies at our finger tips, we seldom use our brain to work even getting the least calculations. Knowledge they say is power. The more knowledge we acquire, the more resourceful we become in affecting our lives positively. We have to invest in ourselves to improve on our business ideas and skills as change is inevitable. To buttress this point, let’s look at Romans 12:2; “and be not conformed to this world, but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind that you may prove what is good and acceptable and perfect will of God”. Please make it a habit to invest huge part of your income on your brain and mind, as it’s such an investment that you would receive a 100% returns.Remember, knowledge is part of the key to all successful businesses. Follow these basic principles of investments guide and you would be amazed how your business would grow in greater profits. </p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://wspnlms.info/guide-to-right-investments/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Seven Health Care Predictions – Better Health For More</title> <link>https://wspnlms.info/seven-health-care-predictions-better-health-for-more/</link> <comments>https://wspnlms.info/seven-health-care-predictions-better-health-for-more/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 26 Jan 2023 09:54:57 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Health Care]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://wspnlms.info/?p=51</guid> <description><![CDATA[Health care is evolving.

Despite the fact that we are hearing and reading of new diseases coming up among the population, such as the dreaded SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome), the Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), and others, health care is also improving. The new trend is that it is getting more patient centered and more close to nature. Here are some of the changes that we will continue to see in the following years.1. The new trend in health care is that it will get more and more patient centered. More and more rooms in the hospitals are now air-conditioned for the convenience of the patient. More and more chemicals have been invented to fight off pain from the patient. Most injections are now administered no longer to the body directly but through the intravenous connection bringing liquid from a plastic container to the patient. The anesthesiologists have become experts in deadening the pain of an operation. The hospital building, rooms and surroundings are now cleaner than ever. Each room, even in the wards, have now a comfort room and bath facilities. In the 1980s there was a large government hospital for a million population which had only one comfort room for all the patients. This is no longer true today. Mercury-based thermometers and sphygmomanometer are now being replaced by digital ones, for the safety of the patients against mercury poisoning or contamination. Headrest in hospital beds can now be raised with a few turns of a handle. More wheel chairs are now available to move patients around with little discomfort for them. Ambulances are available to transfer patients from homes to hospitals and back to their homes or other hospitals. Indeed more and more conveniences are now given to the patients. We will see more of these as the years go by.2. Another new trend in health care is that there will be more and more return to nature, particularly herbs as curative agents. After all people are discovering that these herbs are as effective as the synthetic drugs and there are no or less bad side effects. People are getting more and more conscious of the food they eat. The number of vegetarians is increasing. More and more people are taking food supplements. As a result food supplements have multiplied. In one report we have 639 pages of listing of food supplements, each page containing around 40 names of food supplements. Food supplements, especially, the ones based on herbs will continue to multiply.3. We are going to see more people taking control of their health, especially in the area of preventing diseases. This is clearly now the new trend in health care. Perhaps this is just logical since the cost of consulting a physician is getting higher and higher, to cover up, some say, for the more and more expensive education the medical doctors are going through.4. As a result of people returning to herbs, governments are pressing for cheaper medicines. We will have cheaper medicines. An example is the sale of dextrose which has become cheaper with the use of plastic containers rather than glass. Medicines will continue to be more generic and less expensive. There are more and more drug stores selling only generic drugs.5. In general people will be getting more and more into alternative medicines. These are medicines that do not fall within the category of conventional medicine, the medical practice most of us are accustomed to because of our western culture. These include natural cures, chiropractice, herbs, traditional Chinese medicine, pranic or energy healing, meditation, hypnosis, etc. The new trend in the use of alternative medicine will continue in the years ahead.6. The diversification and specialization of health care personnel will continue to increase. Forty years ago it was the physician himself who put on the fluoroscopy machine, took the x-ray picture of his patient, analyzed it. Now we have medical technicians to do this. They even have a high sounding name now, medical technologists. Besides the ever growing group of medical specialists we now have the physical therapists for exercising the movements of the body, the nutritionists for the food of the patient, the health insurance company and the social worker for the payment of hospital bills, the hospital administrator for the management of the hospital facilities, let alone the chaplain for the anxious and dying patients. More specialized services will continue to appear.7. If there is distance education there is also distance health care. This is the last new trend in health care that I see. We will have more of this in the future. It is very rare now for us to experience being visited by the doctor at our homes, as this was done 50 years ago. This happens now only among very close friends or relatives of the doctors. There was a time when a doctor would go around town treating current and would-be patients. That is gone now. We have now consultation by cell phones. A doctor has a radio program. The audience listens. The doctor gives his cell phone number. By and by he is inundated with text messages about this and about that ailment experienced by his radio listeners. And he gives advice on his cell phone too by text messaging his listeners. Who knows, later on we can have doctors analyzing their patients from a distance with the aid of electronic equipment.Indeed health care has evolved. Now that you know these are the directions health care is going to go, the new trends in health care, be more conscious of your own health. You owe it to yourself to be healthy.But these are just predictions. Be prepared to be surprised with newer developments in health care. But we are very far from the one tablet that cures all diseases. </p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://wspnlms.info/seven-health-care-predictions-better-health-for-more/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Home Health Care: Some Basic Information</title> <link>https://wspnlms.info/home-health-care-some-basic-information/</link> <comments>https://wspnlms.info/home-health-care-some-basic-information/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 26 Jan 2023 09:53:25 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Health Care]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://wspnlms.info/?p=49</guid> <description><![CDATA[Home health care is just what the name suggests – health care services that can be taken care of in your home.

There are quite a number of these possible home-based services, and they can be cheaper, as useful, and more convenient than the services you could get in a hospital or other nursing facility.The point of this is to take care of an illness, injury, or other ailment. The idea is to get your independence, confidence, and self-sufficient behavior back on target as quickly as possible in your own environment.Potential home health service options include caring for wounds, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech-language therapy, patient and care-giver education, intravenous and nutrition therapy, injections, and monitoring serious illness and unstable health status. There is also health aid, to help with things like getting into and out of bed, getting dressed, baths, eating, and bathroom activities. This is also considered things like housekeeping duties, laundry, shopping, and cooking.There are lists of agencies that do home health care work. Check your local phone book, or look up information on the internet to find local places and check what services they actually provide. Some health insurers like Medicare will only cover the costs of this if the home health agency has been certified by them.When present, the staff will check what you’re eating and drinking, check things like blood pressure, temperature, heart rate, and breathing, make sure that you are taking your prescriptions, drugs, and other treatments appropriately, check if you’re in pain, be aware of the safety in your home, teach you to care for yourself over time, and coordinate your care with you, your doctor, and others who treat you.It’s very important that you understand how your plan of care works. An agency member will consult with you and your doctor to make this happen. The plan of care includes what services you need, which care professionals should give those services, how often those services are required, what medical equipment is needed, and what results you expect. All involved will review this plan as often as required to do the job properly.If you are getting home health care, you should ask yourself questions regularly to make sure you’re be treated appropriately. For instance, if the staff is polite, if they explain everything to you in a way you can understand, if they respond quickly to your requests, if they check in with you physically and emotionally with each visit, and if they regularly suggest changes to improve your situation.With all these things in mind, now you know enough to get started researching to determine if home health care is the right decision for you and your family. </p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://wspnlms.info/home-health-care-some-basic-information/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>There is an excessive amount of traffic coming from your Region.</title> <link>https://wspnlms.info/there-is-an-excessive-amount-of-traffic-coming-from-your-region/</link> <comments>https://wspnlms.info/there-is-an-excessive-amount-of-traffic-coming-from-your-region/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 26 Jan 2023 09:51:50 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Weight-Loss]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://wspnlms.info/?p=47</guid> <description><![CDATA[#EANF#]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>#EANF#</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://wspnlms.info/there-is-an-excessive-amount-of-traffic-coming-from-your-region/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>S&P 500 Rallies As U.S. Dollar Pulls Back Towards Weekly Lows</title> <link>https://wspnlms.info/sp-500-rallies-as-u-s-dollar-pulls-back-towards-weekly-lows/</link> <comments>https://wspnlms.info/sp-500-rallies-as-u-s-dollar-pulls-back-towards-weekly-lows/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Wed, 26 Oct 2022 05:47:45 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Advertising]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Branding]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Business]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Business Travel]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Careers Employment]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Consulting]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Furnishings and Supplies]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Industrial Mechanical]]></category> <category><![CDATA[International Business]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Interviews]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Management]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Marketing]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Networking]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Sales Management]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Sales Training]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Security]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Small Business]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://wspnlms.info/?p=42</guid> <description><![CDATA[Key Insights The strong pullback in the U.S. dollar provided significant support to stocks.

The U.S. dollar has recently gained strong downside momentum as the BoJ intervened to stop the rally in USD/JPY. Weaker U.S. dollar is bullish for stocks as it increases profits of multinational companies and makes U.S. equities cheaper for foreign investors.</p><p>The leading oil services company Schlumberger is up by 9% after beating analyst estimates on both earnings and revenue. Schlumberger’s peers Baker Hughes and Halliburton have also enjoyed strong support today.</p><p>Vaccine makers Pfizer and Moderna gained strong upside momentum after Pfizer announced that it will raise the price of its coronavirus vaccine to $110 – $130 per shot.</p><p>Biggest losers today include Verizon and Twitter. Verizon is down by 5% despite beating analyst estimates on both earnings and revenue. Subscriber numbers missed estimates, and traders pushed the stock to multi-year lows.</p><p>Twitter stock moved towards the $50 level as the U.S. may conduct a security review of Musk’s purchase of the company.</p><p>From a big picture point of view, today’s rebound is broad, and most market segments are moving higher. Treasury yields have started to move lower after testing new highs, providing additional support to S&P 500. It looks that some traders are ready to bet that Fed will be less hawkish than previously expected.</p><p>S&P 500 Tests Resistance At 3730</p><p>S&P 500 has recently managed to get above the 20 EMA and is trying to settle above the resistance at 3730. RSI is in the moderate territory, and there is plenty of room to gain additional upside momentum in case the right catalysts emerge.</p><p>If S&P 500 manages to settle above 3730, it will head towards the next resistance level at 3760. A successful test of this level will push S&P 500 towards the next resistance at October highs at 3805. The 50 EMA is located in the nearby, so S&P 500 will likely face strong resistance above the 3800 level.</p><p>On the support side, the previous resistance at 3700 will likely serve as the first support level for S&P 500. In case S&P 500 declines below this level, it will move towards the next support level at 3675. A move below 3675 will push S&P 500 towards the support at 3640.</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://wspnlms.info/sp-500-rallies-as-u-s-dollar-pulls-back-towards-weekly-lows/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>SPDN: An Inexpensive Way To Profit When The S&P 500 Falls</title> <link>https://wspnlms.info/spdn-an-inexpensive-way-to-profit-when-the-sp-500-falls/</link> <comments>https://wspnlms.info/spdn-an-inexpensive-way-to-profit-when-the-sp-500-falls/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Wed, 26 Oct 2022 05:47:11 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://wspnlms.info/?p=40</guid> <description><![CDATA[Summary SPDN is not the largest or oldest way to short the S&P 500, but it’s a solid choice.

Many investors assume the only way to navigate a potentially long-term bear market is to hide in cash, day-trade or “just hang in there” while the bear takes their retirement nest egg.</p><p>The Direxion Daily S&P 500® Bear 1X ETF (NYSEARCA:SPDN) is one of a class of single-inverse ETFs that allow investors to profit from down moves in the stock market.</p><p>SPDN is an unleveraged, liquid, low-cost way to either try to hedge an equity portfolio, profit from a decline in the S&P 500, or both. We rate it a Strong Buy, given our concern about the intermediate-term outlook for the global equity market.</p><p>Strategy<br />SPDN keeps it simple. If the S&P 500 goes up by X%, it should go down by X%. The opposite is also expected.</p><p>Proprietary ETF Grades<br />Offense/Defense: Defense</p><p>Segment: Inverse Equity</p><p>Sub-Segment: Inverse S&P 500</p><p>Correlation (vs. S&P 500): Very High (inverse)</p><p>Expected Volatility (vs. S&P 500): Similar (but opposite)</p><p>Holding Analysis<br />SPDN does not rely on shorting individual stocks in the S&P 500. Instead, the managers typically use a combination of futures, swaps and other derivative instruments to create a portfolio that consistently aims to deliver the opposite of what the S&P 500 does.</p><p>Strengths<br />SPDN is a fairly “no-frills” way to do what many investors probably wished they could do during the first 9 months of 2022 and in past bear markets: find something that goes up when the “market” goes down. After all, bonds are not the answer they used to be, commodities like gold have, shall we say, lost their luster. And moving to cash creates the issue of making two correct timing decisions, when to get in and when to get out. SPDN and its single-inverse ETF brethren offer a liquid tool to use in a variety of ways, depending on what a particular investor wants to achieve.</p><p>Weaknesses<br />The weakness of any inverse ETF is that it does the opposite of what the market does, when the market goes up. So, even in bear markets when the broader market trend is down, sharp bear market rallies (or any rallies for that matter) in the S&P 500 will cause SPDN to drop as much as the market goes up.</p><p>Opportunities<br />While inverse ETFs have a reputation in some circles as nothing more than day-trading vehicles, our own experience with them is, pardon the pun, exactly the opposite! We encourage investors to try to better-understand single inverse ETFs like SPDN. While traders tend to gravitate to leveraged inverse ETFs (which actually are day-trading tools), we believe that in an extended bear market, SPDN and its ilk could be a game-saver for many portfolios.</p><p>Threats<br />SPDN and most other single inverse ETFs are vulnerable to a sustained rise in the price of the index it aims to deliver the inverse of. But that threat of loss in a rising market means that when an investor considers SPDN, they should also have a game plan for how and when they will deploy this unique portfolio weapon.</p><p>Proprietary Technical Ratings<br />Short-Term Rating (next 3 months): Strong Buy</p><p>Long-Term Rating (next 12 months): Buy</p><p>Conclusions<br />ETF Quality Opinion<br />SPDN does what it aims to do, and has done so for over 6 years now. For a while, it was largely-ignored, given the existence of a similar ETF that has been around much longer. But the more tenured SPDN has become, the more attractive it looks as an alternative.</p><p>ETF Investment Opinion</p><p>SPDN is rated Strong Buy because the S&P 500 continues to look as vulnerable to further decline. And, while the market bottomed in mid-June, rallied, then waffled since that time, our proprietary macro market indicators all point to much greater risk of a major decline from this level than a fast return to bull market glory. Thus, SPDN is at best a way to exploit and attack the bear, and at worst a hedge on an otherwise equity-laden portfolio.</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://wspnlms.info/spdn-an-inexpensive-way-to-profit-when-the-sp-500-falls/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>S&P 500 Biotech Giant Vertex Leads 5 Stocks Showing Strength</title> <link>https://wspnlms.info/sp-500-biotech-giant-vertex-leads-5-stocks-showing-strength/</link> <comments>https://wspnlms.info/sp-500-biotech-giant-vertex-leads-5-stocks-showing-strength/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Wed, 26 Oct 2022 05:46:54 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://wspnlms.info/?p=38</guid> <description><![CDATA[Your stocks to watch for the week ahead are Cheniere Energy (LNG), S&P 500 biotech giant Vertex Pharmaceuticals (VRTX), Cardinal Health (CAH), Steel Dynamics (STLD) and Genuine Parts (GPC).
