Where does one put their money when we’re in an Everything Bubble, driven by dark money that has poured in from the world’s central banks?
Look at it this way: we are living with unaccountable, unacknowledged Financial Repression; you are one of the cows being milked, the sheep being sheared.
Been in the market since 1994.
Started with $35k. Now have $800k.
Work hard. Keep a budget. Watch your spending. And invest at least 10% of your before tax income. Mutual funds are best.
Stick with the big companies:Vanguard, Fidelity, Schwab.
And,for the love of God, don’t try to “time” the market or panic and cash out when it heads south. I did that once and lost $10k I never got back. But maybe that was money well spendt because I learned to hang in there over the long haul.
I stayed in the market during the Dot Com bubble and throughout the Great Recession...all the way down to 6300 from 9300 and now the market is flirting with 25,000.
Just be disciplined and keep a cool head. It does pay off but it takes time.
4 star 5 star balanced index fund from one of the 3 firms mentioned in # 6, Pull the trigger DCA into it and never look back.
Dont go to a “stock broker”
S&P Index Mutual Fund. Slow and steady wins the race.
12/04/2017 the markets are up already so very much this year that it is time to be selling to take profits rather than to be buying at these prices. The quite time of the year starts 12/15/2017 for end of the year inactivity. Ultra long term stocks would include Dis (Disney). Or try HIMX at a lower price. Stocks will be up today. Best to have bought last Friday. Not today which is Monday. Some people like AMD at less than 11.0 or SHOP at less than 104.00 per share. Buyer beware. It is not just at what price you buy. It is how long you hold and at what price you sell. Sometimes it is best to sell the day before the earnings report. Buy before the rumor which sends the price higher and sell before the news which sends the price lower.
Technology, Financials and Health Care are some better sectors.
One good company stock possibility on a pullback is NVDA.
If you don’t have a lot of money, stick with ETF’s like the financial sector XLF
Or just buy the S&P 500 ETF: SPY
Good luck! If you don’t know what you’re doing, consult a professional. Don’t rely on us on a forum. Do your research before you get anything!
I like companies that have an interesting product that is undervalued for its potential. What I'm lousy at is knowing when to sell.
everyone loves Vanguard
How you invest depends on your individual circumstances.
1.) What are your goals? What are you trying to achieve?
It’s hard to make any recommendations unless you answer that question. If your answer is ‘get rich quick’, then a trip to Lost Wages might be the best answer. Answer that question, and I’ll get back to you.
ok, i am retirement age, and have some spare cash that i have sitting on the side. on stocks which is still my majority i am somewhat assertive, with somewhat foci on medium growth and low cap. longer term, working slowly to taper off individual stock investments in favor of funds which imho require less babysitting if not less risk.
Vanguard S&P 500 Index.
dow at 24000 by the end of last week, so how about 25000 by the end of this week?

Nine years ago I recommended S&P 500 Index Funds. It’s probably a little late, now.
Do you shine shoes?
I could sit here and give you individual stock recommendations, but you really need to learn what makes a company a good investment. For beginners, look for a low price to earnings ratio (P&E) under about 20 and not over 25, the available cash on hand the company has, and how much it pays in dividends and how long it has been paying those dividends. Just for an example, look at AT&T.
Of course, there is a whole lot more to it than this. You are going to have to do your homework to be successful at this. And, don’t “day trade” investment stocks! Look to make long term investments.
Personally, I would definitely pass on investing in Brinks.
See?
