Bill Cara’s Global Navigator 2026.1 Investment Report
Despite humongous technical problems, I managed to produce the first report of the year. Beware of data integrity issues this week more than any others in recent months.
The Weekly Global Market Navigator Report presents a comprehensive investment framework that prioritizes top-down macro analysis over individual stock picking. It emphasizes that broader economic forces, such as interest rates, credit spreads, and sovereign debt yields, dictate the success of specific sectors and companies. The report critiques passive index investing for including underperforming stocks and instead advocates for a disciplined approach using blue-chip watchlists and technical timing. Key to this methodology is the INSTAT system, a proprietary mathematical tool that scores market momentum across short, medium, and long-term horizons to guide tactical decisions. Ultimately, the Navigator serves as an educational guide for independent investors, promoting financial literacy and objective research free of industry bias.
