Just don't buy ETFs then and run your own diversified portfolio to beat the dips and only have it go up in all market conditions

I have only one ETF holding. (VOO). ... Everything else is in some nice stocks... i.e Defense. I am bitching about ETF's dragging down defense holdings that are not tied to consumer spending. Governments got to spend..and the war machine is churning... I follow the defense industry because I was in it. I have a good understanding of how that industry works. You need to monitor contract awards and back-orders; know when the money is going to flow.

I am seriously considering jumping out of the market in a couple of years...Tired of fucking managing it; got to soon start spending it! :smokin::smokin::smokin::smokin:

I doubt it. I don't think this becomes more than a typical correction. The fed will spike the punch bowl and the market will be setting new all time highs by the end of the year.

Way sooner than end of the year, need the best economy ever so Kamala "gets" elected.
 
Yeah, Im just hanging out in a certain tech stock and have a small chunk of money shoved over into a BS YOLO company (SKYX) to play with.

Tempting to not buy some more while everything is so low... :emb:

Ahhh that makes more sense. I was gonna say, if you don't like what the ETF is doing, do it yourself:laughing:

I was thinking about investing in some defense stocks as that seems to be our only export these days: death, destruction, chaos and destabilization world wide.
 
I've said it before but Fuck Robinhood

I've been having problems logging into my Schwab account since the market opened. Awfully convenient.

How the heck do I pull from the funds I’m in into a generic holding account? I spent 2 hours last night trying to figure it out and couldn’t. It’s easy with fidelity but my job uses that Schwab trash

Don't you just sell the holdings?
 
Kyle said:
Yes but they have to be “sold” and “bought” into a low yield low interest account.

AKA money market?

I hear the term but it just seems like where my incoming funds are deposited before I buy holdings with them.

I've heard other people say that they like the Fidelity website, but I'm the opposite, Schwab has better tools and easier to navigate.

If you have fidelity or any other brokerage account, there should be reference to a money market in there, that's where the cash goes. If not call them.

Fucking pilots man:flipoff2:
 
I'm with Schwab because they aquired ameritrade. Was with ameritrade for the Think or Swim platform. Is there anything competitive with ToS now?

Not me....

Averaging GT down did not work, so I'm now long/bagholder status on more shares than I care to admit. Any swings to the upside have been met with some suspicious resistance levels, seems the MM's are keeping it down, maybe they are still dumping shares? Anyway, I gave someone smarter than me some good exit liquidity :emb:
 
My SLCA closed out so I've $1940 to dump into something.

I'm moving the funds out of RH to my IRA in Vanguard so that might limit my options.

Im not looking for something crazy risky but I do favor some risk/reward.
 
Alright, I've stayed in it in my VOO, VGF, & various diversified ETFs & REITs. Been dollar cost averaging since I got out of school . I'm WAY up since 2015.

I'm finally at the point I want to gamble and sell it all off to buy after the crash. :homer:

I won't do it. But I kind of want to :laughing:

If I sold it would ensure the market just kept going up. :flipoff2:

Sell it off and do what with it? You certainly don’t want cash. Probably your best bet would be income generating real estate. That works if “the crash comes fast or slow”.

Lets look at the last few weeks

2/10 year uninverted after 2 years
fed cut 50 basis points after a couple of years of raising and holding
unemployment inching up, Sahm rule triggered

Over the last year, roughly 9.1% of credit card balances transitioned into delinquency, auto's are 8% and rising

But the economy is strong.

This looks like late cycle stuff to me, but .. but .. but, there is still a megashitton of .gov stimulus out there that may push this cycle out further and longer than anyone thinks. The market always peaks before it drops straight down. I want to go short, just not yet until the data turns a bit more. This also could be the time the fed gets it right and we have a soft landing and all the rules are wrong, you never know.
 
Just checked, when I cashed put earlier u left $100 in there...currently up to $110

10% gain over a few months during what was supposed to be the crash :shaking: oh well

Time in the market not timing the market.
 
I’m up 8% overall after I sold off some dumbass gambles and still holding $1300 in open loses 🤦

I went back to basics mostly with one current gamble on Dana $DAN. Currently up 8% on that one but not expecting a windfall

I think I’m just going to DCA if it drops on my blue chips
 
One lesson I have learned but am too fawking stupid to adjust my behavior. I am pretty good at picking buys. But not so good at sells. I have 2 portfolios. 1 where I only buy (invest). Still have 30% of it in cash and despite that the portfolio is up 25% ytd. My account where I try to trade is up 20% ytd.

I feel like a top is coming, but I am afraid to sell anything. Best example of my poor selling. Sold some META to lock in my 150% gain @ $464. It's now up to $560. Luckily I only sold a very little of my shares. but still.....

That's where the trailing stops help out. Pick a comfortable percent, say 30% or 2%, whatever works for you, set that as a trailing stop. If it drops, it will trigger and sell.

If it continues to rise, it will adjust the stop up along with it
 
So a kid builds an app called Dub that duplicates the stock trading of a person you choose… scam? Or will I be worth as much as Pelosi by end of year?
