A murky economic picture may be on the horizon as forecasts indicate the possibility for a third quarter contraction. Markets may become increasingly more volatile should weaker earnings growth sour sentiment. Despite the gloomy potential, investors can seek tactical solutions to market woes through short-term, active strategies that attempt to utilize leveraged and inverse ETFs. Additionally, long-term tactical strategies that aim to weather the short-term storms and take advantage of coming rallies could potentially boost investor prospects.
