3 Simple Steps to Making Money in a Volatile Market

The Market’s Moving Fast — Here’s How to Make Money from the ASX

Right now, the ASX is a battleground of big wins and sudden drops — and the only place you don’t want to be is on the sidelines.

In our latest video, Under the Radar Report founder Richard Hemming shares three simple steps that can help you make the most of market volatility. This is especially important as reporting season rolls on and stock prices swing sharply on earnings surprises.

We’re Seeing Massive Moves

From global giants to local small caps, the market is moving fast:

  • Novo Nordisk – down 25% overnight, wiping out €70 billion.

  • Boss Energy $BOE – slammed on news.

  • SomnoMed $SOM – doubled in just 3 months.

  • Intelligent Monitoring Systems  $IMB– up 35%.

  • Hansen Technologies $HSN– up 30%.

These kinds of shifts reflect a deeper truth: markets are emotional, and when fear or hype takes hold, prices disconnect from fundamentals. That’s your opportunity.

Here’s how to take advantage:


Step 1: Take Some Profits

It feels good. And it builds your “dry powder” — cash you can reinvest into better opportunities.

We’ve taken profits recently on:

  • Evolution Mining $EVN

  • Insignia Financial $IFL (under takeover offer)

  • Medibank Private $MPL

  • JB Hi-Fi $JBH

What do these have in common? They’re big-cap stocks. Right now, that’s where the crowd is — and when everyone piles in, valuations get stretched.

That’s your cue to bank gains and move to better value.


Step 2: Buy What’s Not Hot

Contrarian investing works. Time and again.

Yes, momentum stocks can run — until they don’t. Look at Novo Nordisk again. A darling of the market, then boom — billions gone overnight.

Meanwhile, unloved stocks often do nothing for months… then suddenly double.

We’ve seen this with:

  • Austal $ASB

  • Superloop $SLC

  • And many more small caps flying under the radar

Why does this happen? Because other investors are impatient. And that gives you the edge if you can wait for the fundamentals to play out.


Step 3: Know the Fundamentals

This is where we come in.

When markets are volatile, fundamentals are your anchor. You want companies with:

  • Strong near-term and mid-term profit potential

  • Reasonable valuations (not 30x earnings like some overhyped stocks)

  • Business models you actually understand

If you’re not confident in the underlying numbers, you’re flying blind — and vulnerable to sudden drops.

Our job is to do the research, so you don’t have to.

That’s why our next few reports will be the most valuable all year. Reporting season reveals everything — winners, losers, and the in-betweens.

Now is the time to dive into company earnings, track price targets, and see which stocks have legs — and which ones to avoid.


Final Word

These are the three steps we follow every day at Under the Radar Report:

  1. Take profits to strengthen your cash position.

  2. Hunt value where others aren’t looking.

  3. Rely on fundamentals — not hype — to guide your decisions.

Markets are volatile. That’s your opportunity. But only if you’re armed with the right strategy and research.
