The 2012 Paradigm Shift That Saved a Career

4 PM isn’t the close. It’s the open.

For 30 years, the overnight window has paid $17 for every $1 the daytime market returned.

Same stocks you already trade. Tesla, Apple, Broadcom – moves of +281%, +215%, +263%, all hitting between the closing bell and the next morning’s open.

Brandon Chapman just delivered a private briefing walking through every trade on camera. Real tickers. Real dates. Backed by research from Columbia, Purdue, and UC Berkeley.

The recording comes down soon, and once it does, this window goes back to the institutions.

Don here…

Corey Rosenbloom shared something during his session I haven’t heard him explain in this much detail. 

He started his career as a bear in 2007. 

He cleaned up scalping the 2008 crash with a small account. He felt smart.

Then 2009 happened. Then 2010. Then 2011. 

His account suffered while the market kept climbing. 

By 2012 he had to have a hard conversation with his family about whether he could keep trading at all.

In today’s free session replay, you’ll discover:

  • The paradigm shift that turned a struggling bear into a hardened bull. Corey changed his entire worldview in 2012. He explains exactly what forced the decision and why being right about fundamentals does not pay if you are wrong about the tape.
  • Why the “this has never happened before” argument is statistically false. Eight straight weeks. 13% from the lows. The current run is the 10th largest streak on record. Corey walked through 1995 and 2020 as examples where the same complaints showed up at every step higher.
  • The relative strength rule that filters winners from laggards.Strong stocks get stronger. Weak stocks get weaker. It sounds simple. Brandon, Gianni, Professor, and Mac all build their work on this same principle for a reason.
  • The colleague who wrote eight reasons the market would crash in 2012. Arab spring. Inflation. A new presidential term. Every reason was reasonable. The market kept going up anyway. Bears had good arguments. The tape had better answers.

Corey made a point that goes against most of the noise traders absorb every day. 

Blaming manipulation, algorithms, or “those dang bulls” does not improve your trading. 

Difficult conversations with yourself about why the tape disagrees with your bias do.

The fundamentals are bullish. GDP is bullish. Jobs at 4.3%. The chart is objectively in an uptrend. 

If you start with the wrong foundation, everything that flows from it is wrong too.

→ Watch Corey explain the 2012 paradigm shift, the persistency of trend principle, and why the model still points higher

To your success,

I was born on 6 August 1956 in San Francisco, California to Janet and (the late) Richard Hovis. I grew up in Santa Monica, California where I attended elementary, junior high school, and high school (graduating in 1974), in addition to involvement in sports and recreation (Little League +, the Boy’s Club ++). Further, it was in elementary school – St. Augustine’s By-the -Sea Parish School that I found, and made the choice to truly journey with God. I attended Arizona State University from 1974 to 1977 – seeking to become an architect, however, I was not accepted, and, as such, I graduated with a Liberal Arts degree. Upon graduation from Arizona State University, I attended Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and studied City and Regional Planning at the Master’s level. I successfully completed one (1) year in a two (2) year program – I did not complete the Master’s degree in City and Regional Planning – due to personal reasons. I returned to Santa Monica where I started (October 1979) my career as graphic designer with Exxon Company, USA. I spent five years with Exxon Company, USA. While working with Exxon Company, USA I was accepted into architectural school – Sci-Arc in Southern California, however, I did not attend preferring to stay with Exxon.. In 1982 I married Laura Flosi and in April 1983 we had our one and only child – Lauren Alain Hovis – a gift from God. We moved to Phoenix, Arizona in 1984 from Los Angeles, where I went to work as a graphic designer with Kitchell CEM (from 1985 -1987). From 1987 – 1995 I was an independent contractor, and a registered representative in mortgage finance, financial management, graphic design, and drafting. Further, I attended the University of Phoenix and successfully obtained a Master’s in Business Administration (MBA) in 1982. I was also a member of the Scottsdale Jaycees, where I became very involved in community events and projects. In 1994, I accepted a cartography position with the Defense Mapping Agency in Reston, Virginia. As such, I relocated from Phoenix to Reston. In 1998, I was accepted and worked as a Visual Information Officer with the Central Intelligence Agency. In 2002, I worked as a Support Officer until my retirement (due to a need for shoulder surgery) in September 2018. Away from my Federal Government service, I have been involved in various organizations and activities in Northern Virginia. In November of 2011, I married Rebecca Ouellette in Santa Monica, California. I reside in San Tan Valley, AZ with my two hamster - Jess and Timothy, our fish, our lizard - RJ Lizard., and our cats - Pearl and Grey. As to hobbies, I enjoy playing sports, attending sporting events, mentoring individuals from financial management to hamsters, building models, photography, travel, multimedia design, managing partner for RJ Hamster, and jazz – smooth jazz to a samba or a bossa nova. Love and God Bless, Peter – aka RJ Hamster Jo hi
