Will The Robust Start To 2018 Continue?

It is coming to the end of the first month of 2018 and Joe shares his observations on how markets have performed thus far, as well as an outlook on them moving forward.

He says the bias of the market is upwards, not downwards, adding that he will not be surprised if there is a pull back or a slow down in pace.

Joe also shares his expectations on corporate earnings that will be released soon. Big corporates such as Apple, Amazon, Microsoft, Facebook and Visa are expected to release their earnings as early as this week.


Which industries is he betting on?

Listen in.
