Dividend ETFs are a great way to diversify your portfolio while also earning some income. Use these to build the foundation of your dividend portfolio then branch off into individual stocks from there.
HO HO HO!
The Christmas season is upon us! And if you don’t celebrate Christmas, I wish you and your family a Happy Holiday!
Because I’m a finance nerd and an investing advocate, I just had to turn the Holidays into something money-related.
Below is a snippet from one of my posts I released almost exactly a year ago.
There are 2 main types of investing:
Reactionary
Anticipatory
Reactionary investing occurs when an investor reacts to current market conditions. You’ll see this type of investing within value investors because they make their decisions based on what is “undervalued”.
Anticipatory investing is forward-looking. It’s based on upside potential, as well as future economic cycles. It can be extremely profitable to anticipate what the market may do (provided that you’re right in your assumption) but it also carries a lot more risk.
Today, I will show you how to be an anticipatory investor. This is often the type of investing that will generate the largest amounts of returns (depending on if you anticipated correctly)
If you’re a swing trader, enjoy swing trading on the side, or just want to dabble and try your hand at it, this holiday season presents a perfect opportunity for you.

Holiday Industries
In order to anticipate the holidays as an investor, we need to know which industries are likely to see an increase in revenue. There will be millions of people shopping online and looking to have their products shipped, so with that being said, can you guess which 4 industries are likely to see the most activity during the next couple of months?
Here they are…
E-commerce
Supply chain
Retail
Payments
Let’s break them down one by one.
E-commerce
“The global ecommerce market is expected to total $5.7 trillion in 2022. Two years ago, only 17.8% of sales were made from online purchases. That number is expected to reach 20.8% in 2023, a 2 percentage point increase in e-commerce market share. Growth is expected to continue, reaching 23% by 2025, which translates to a 5.2 percentage point increase in just 5 years” - Shopify Plus
There’s no doubt the pandemic accelerated the adoption of online shopping way faster than we ever could have imagined. Now with COVID still looming over our heads, although I like to think this pandemic is over, there will still be millions of people looking to take advantage of online shopping instead of spending hours in malls.
There’s just no incentive to get up and go to a brick-and-mortar store anymore. With the exception of buying things like clothes, a mattress or anything else that requires you to feel and try a product, the rest can be bought on your smartphone from the comfort of your own home.
With every year that passes, consumers are opting to shop online instead of in person. Companies are pushing this online shopping trend, which helps them save on costs as well. No more need for as much physical real estate, inventory or as many employees to be in the stores.
Judging by this trend, you (the investor) can take advantage of it. Below you’ll find 4 stocks that could see a quick boost in revenues in the next couple of months.
Shopify (SHOP)
Mercadolibre (MELI)
Etsy (ETSY)
Sea (SE)
