    Walmart WMT not doing so great. Kimberly Clark KMB, as recommended elsewhere on Real Vision, is doing better. However, if things go south in a big way (below the market's 29-Oct low), I think it will be better not to be invested, as opposed to be invested "defensively".

      If you bought this basket you’d be in profits. Buy the basket. Like how this joker picks the one down. Clearly a hindsight back seat Trader.

    Just saw a technician on CNBC basically present this trade with some modification including a basket on Fast Money. What a coincidence. It was done several weeks after I recorded this trade. Lol!

    Hi Louis, In your defensive stock basket the basket weight percentage adds up to 188.5% not 100% . Can you explain? KC

      I apologize. Those were the weights prior to normalization to 100%. Here are the correct weights: MCD 23.59% PG 23.34% VZ 19.21% WMT 17.30% PM 16.5%

      You could perhaps start the process of learning about short (selling) premium credit option trading. Takes about three months of daily study, not to become proficient, but to get to the point of realisation that short premium option trading is really powerful and hence the need to commit to further long term learning. However I don't believe there's anything of substance to be found on RV.

    I came to RealVision for insights about reasoning and methodology. Most of the macro pieces deliver while the more trading focused pieces sometimes fall short in that respect. Louis once again does a superb job, this is the gold standard.
