I keep a blind eye towards my 401k too, but I still like to check out my Roth IRA every day. Even when it's hurting I like to add more funds to buy up a few shares at a discount.
My favorite part is watching the dividend payments buying more shares. It's not much now, but it's gotten to a point...
To me, there are too many variables that could cause a major plummet to predict. So many threads that holding it together and it'll only take one to make the cards drop.
OPEC isn't helping with their slowing of oil production.
Threat of nuclear/biological war from Russia.
Threat of nuclear war...
You can always buy after every big dip, then let the stock build it's self up with dividend reinvestment.
I've got 30 years till retirement so I focus on dividend king stocks and enjoy the snowball effect it has while I wait out the ride. It fun to see your estimated yearly income grow every...
Yup, after all, those diamond mines are doing wonders for the other fellas over there.
I hear those blood diamonds sparkle the best. I bet the blood gold will catch on fast.
Prices may come down as long as the US dollar regains it's strength again. But unless we get another American focused president again it'll be a long while till gold isn't as inflated like our economy.
It's not really investing when you buy at it's peak price, right? Following trends late in...
I've always felt safer in the stock market for my investments. Seems easier to research and make an informed decision as opposed to taking a guess which crypto will be any good.
I only invest in dividend stocks, so even in a bear market, I can still enjoy watching my shares grow with DRIP.
Most likely homes being bought with cash are from hedge funds & investors looking to capitalize on the overinflated rental rates.
I'm sure whenever the market catches back up with supply and demand, rental rates will drop causing the the market to be saturated with available home's.
I won't...
Yup, it amazes me that the market gets a boost from any speech from Biden. He's a fool being manipulated like a puppet & it's apparent with every speech he gives.
When it hits the fan, it'll spread everywhere. This won't be anything that the elite Left can manipulate to fix their crap shoot...
If you are active in any kind of prepping, there's always a future to look forwards to in your plans. It's those that cover all their basses that can & will reap the rewards. The world won't fall just because China takes a stand on it's goal of dominating the world.
Same could have been said...
Not exactly spend per say all my monies, but I highly doubt that a war with China will bring the end of our future. Even the Chinese leaders aren't so ignorant with what that would mean for themselves. Such a bleak outlook would bring me to invest in a comfy bunker stocked full of my favorite...
We'd be $#!t out of luck if they were for sale here. Can you imagine someone getting so pissed off after waiting for an hour on a meet and figure F*!( it, I'm bring it back to the dark ages to teach that bastard a lesson.
Depending on which stocks you have and what stocks cut their dividends, but let's say the stock market drops $20 on what's currently valued in the next year. Given that the average dividend is 3-4%, a person will be loosing about $2-6 of dividend per year, per share. Since the market has shown...
I should have been a little more reactive & sold my T stock when they stated they were going to cut the dividend. Now it's $6 lower, but it had dropped $12 before the rebound than what it was & extra shaky since the CEO won't say the Discovery deal will either be a Split off or Spin off for...
I agree about exiting the market too soon & loosing out on the a bit of continued growth. Yet I come to think about the 2008 crash & think about how farther my investments could be now if I had the foresight to pull out before the drop & use the funds to buy back when the prices had tanked.
For...
China is buying up & hoarding grain, coal, & natural gas. It may point to their preparedness for a potential war against Taiwan & any other aggressors that come to their aid. I could see them using the Ukraine issue to their advantage depending if the US pushes Russia too far and creates another...
I say, if you're already mortgage free, keep collecting cash for when the market does crash.
I currently have a HELIOC & it was handy to have for emergencies, like when I fell on hard times. But looking back now I'd only use it for emergencies and not real estate during an economic crisis. I'd...
