IF IT'S RAINING IN BRAZIL, BUY STARBUCKS

The hardcover edition of If It's Raining in Brazil, Buy Starbucks first introduced investors to "macrotrading." Instead of just theorizing, the breakthrough investing strategy actually quantifies the impact of global economic forces on specific sectors of the stock market. This paperback edition delivers macrotrading to a new and wider audience, identifying which economic indicators are essential to follow, how to trade profitably in times of recession or inflation, subtle signals that indicate imminent turning points in the market, and much more.

This is definitely one of those books that I am going to have to go back and at least partially re-read a second time. That's not to say that it's a hard book to read, rather it's a good one that I don't think I fully took in his message on the first read.

Navarro is obviously very biased towards trading on a macro view of the US / global economy. Although I try to make a point of keeping the news in the background and not letting me bias my trading decisions too much on an intraday basis, he's really opened up my eyes to reading behind the numbers of economic indicators.

If you are a position trader who is holding for multiple days and/or months then this is definitely worth reading. For intraday trading it's at least given me more insight into why news can look to be good or bad but still drive the market in the opposite direction.

This book bucks on its promise to give you a wider look of the investing and trading panorama.
A bit questionable the amount of examples, that at times feel they're bent to make a point rather than to show you how it actually worked out.
Needless to say, it contains important considerations that shouldn't be ignored.
I'm sure I'll find the takes useful in my investment endeavours.
