Latest outlook from the 'Bond King' is bleak... The best decision you can make every morning... Change your life for less than the price of a cup of coffee a week...
Editor's note: The Stansberry Digest editors are still at the annual Spring Editors Conference in Sea Island, Georgia. So in lieu of our normal Digest, we're running some brand-new commentary from Dr. David "Doc" Eifrig's research team. Enjoy...
"Bond King" Bill Gross released his latest investment outlook last Monday... and as you'd expect, investors were mainly interested in what he had to say about the bond market...
We are approaching that point now as bond yields, credit spreads, and stock prices have brought financial wealth forward to the point of exhaustion. A rational investor must indeed have a sense of an ending, not another Lehman crash, but a crush of perpetual bull market enthusiasm...
As it is, in 2015, I merely have a sense of an ending, a secular bull market ending with a whimper, not a bang. But if so, like death, only the timing is in doubt. Because of this sense, however, I have unrest, increasingly a great unrest. You should as well.
But it's not just Gross who's growing nervous. As we reported in the May 4 Digest, Gross' comments join those of investment legend Warren Buffett, billionaire activist Carl Icahn, and bond guru Jeff Gundlach.
The New York Times just confirmed something Doc has been telling his Retirement Millionaire subscribers for a long time: Coffee is good for you...
Drinking coffee was associated with a significantly reduced chance of death. I can't think of any other product that has this much positive epidemiologic evidence going for it.
Doc has been on top of this trend for years. He has told subscribers many times that drinking just one cup of coffee per day reduces inflammation, protects against heart disease, and reduces the risk of dementia. And the latest research suggests coffee also helps your liver. As Doc explained in last month's issue of Retirement Millionaire...
According to a new report from the World Cancer Research Fund,drinking just one cup of coffee per day reduces your risk of developing liver cancer.
In the U.S., 35,660 people receive a liver-cancer diagnosis each year. The disease kills about 24,550 people each year, according to the American Cancer Society. Every year, the WCRF examines all current liver-cancer research and publishes its final report on the findings.
Doc drinks one or two cups of a half-decaf medium- to dark-roast coffee per day. He also drinks tea every day, which lowers cholesterol, fights cancer, and keeps immune systems strong. As Doc put it...
Enjoy your morning cups of medicine. Your brain – and your liver – will thank you.
Speaking of Retirement Millionaire, Doc's newest issue hit inboxes today... and it might be the best issue he has written this year.
It's all about a way to "fix" your 401(k). It's not technically a secret... But it's something most investors will never take the time to do.
As a result, those investors will lose out on hundreds of thousands of dollars... They could miss out on more money than they could possibly have saved over their lifetime.
Here's a sneak preview of the issue that hit subscribers' inboxes today...
Think about it this way. Imagine you save $5,000 a year for 40 years and earn just 4% a year... you set aside $200,000 and it grows to $494,000. If you boost your annual return to 8%, the same $200,000 grows to $1.3 million.
By the way, we didn't pick these numbers at random. A study by research firm DALBAR shows that while the stock market earned about 11.1% a year over the last 30 years, the typical investor only earned about 3.7%... thanks to bad investment decisions. We decided to use a more conservative market return of 8% a year.
And in the new era of 401(k)s and IRAs, the investment performance falls on you. Getting just 4% won't cut it. You owe it to yourself and your family to earn the best return possible.
​
Which would you rather be: the "typical" investor or the retired millionaire? The answer is clear to us...
This is just one of many "outside of the box" income ideas that Doc shares with his subscribers.
His Retirement Millionaire advisory is all about looking at retirement a different way. Doc helps his readers live a healthier and wealthier lifestyle... on less money. Over the last 12 months alone, Doc has helped save his readers more than $2,100 on things like restaurants, online trading, oil changes, groceries, coffee, and more.
Plus, Porter gave it an "A+" rating in this year's Report Card. And Doc is the only analyst to earn an "A" or better every year since Retirement Millionaire launched in 2009.
It's easy to see why Doc's letter has become hugely successful.
The ideas that Doc shares can literally change your life, from the healthiest way to exercise to the safest tax-free income opportunity available to U.S. investors.
Many people pay thousands of dollars per year for the same kind of research you'll find every month in Retirement Millionaire. Financial advisors will charge you big annual fees for investment advice... and then underperform the market. Meanwhile, a full year of Doc's best advice in Retirement Millionaire costs just $49 a year. That's less than the cost of a cup of coffee a week.
It's time to take charge of your life and your investments. If you're interested in learning more about a four-month, risk-free trial subscription, click here. (This does not go to a long video presentation.)
Plus... Doc has published a series of reports detailing several little-known ways to generate extra income – whether you're retired or not. In it, he explains how to take advantage of a program that could give you an immediate cash payment of up to $106,000, just for staying in your current home... a "retirement account" investment that enables you to pay ZERO fees when you put your money in and ZERO taxes when you take your money out... and how to get free silver from your local bank.

"I am a Flex Alliance member and for the past two years I have been following Stansberry Research with what I feel has been great success. My trading account has really grown, allowing me to transfer funds to my other investment accounts which are very conservative managed accounts. But my trading account is where the funds are. I use several investment information sources, but my flex account is by far my favorite.
"The Alpha strategy has been very successful except for two black swans, one of which I was able to stay patient and work out of through selling of covered calls. I closed 204 option sales in 2014 with a pure win rate of over 90 percent. Yes I had to roll some forward and be put some stocks then work covered call sales, but by any measure very rewarding. I use Alpha for my leap sales. I have had poor success buying puts or calls and I don't spend huge amounts of time sitting on my computer.
"My flex selections are Stansberry's Investment Advisory, Stansberry Alpha, Retirement Trader, Stansberry Short Report, and DailyWealth Trader. Your reports give me free money. It is that simple. I explain it to friends and they just don't get it. Keep up the great work." – Paid-up subscriber R.C. Daniels
