Markets Are Falling—But Your Portfolio Doesn’t Have To

Markets Are Falling—But Your Portfolio Doesn’t Have To


Last week’s tariff news triggered a massive market shake-up, and as of Friday:

📉 The S&P 500 is down 17%, dangerously close to bear market territory
📉 The
Nasdaq is down 21%, officially in a bear market

But here’s the number that should really catch your attention:


$9.6 trillion—that’s how much has been wiped out from the U.S. stock market since January 17th.


Let’s put that in perspective: if you’re like many investors nearing retirement, this could mean six figures in personal losses.


🚨 Is That Your Retirement Money Disappearing?

We’ve always said this at Strategic Profit Line Trading:


“The stock market is a place where money moves every day—from those who don’t understand it, to those who do.”

So, where did that $9.6 trillion actually go?

✅ To traders who shorted the market
✅ To investors who hedged using options
✅ To professionals who strategically protected their portfolios


If you had a $1 million portfolio and planned to retire this year, you’ve likely seen $200,000 vanish in just 30 days.


🛡️ The Solution Most Advisors Won’t Tell You

What if you could insure your portfolio—just like you insure your car, your home, or your health?

With options trading, you can.
At
SPL Trading, we teach people exactly how to:

  • Hedge their holdings against downside risk
  • Generate income in flat markets
  • Profit from downturns using options and futures strategies

Let me ask you:

  • Has your financial advisor called you lately?
  • Have they explained how you can protect your wealth in a down market?
  • Or are they just telling you to “ride it out” and “be patient”?

Sure, the market might recover eventually. But can you afford to wait?


🧠 Don’t Panic—Strategize

At Strategic Profit Line Trading, we don’t believe in fear—we believe in financial education and execution.

Our mission is to empower investors to:

✅ Take control of their retirement timelines
✅ Navigate any market condition
✅ Stop relying solely on advisors who aren’t showing the full picture


Ready to Take Control?

We offer courses and strategy sessions to help you:

  • Understand what’s really happening in the markets
  • Learn how to insure your portfolio
  • Explore income and protection strategies using options
