The markets are irrational...but where in the world are you going to make anything on an investment long term? Savings acct? ya, right
CD's ? nope
Real Estate - possibly but that is just as inflated as stock market.

There is no alternative currently or in the future. Am I wrong?


Yep real estate as an investment used to be a sure thing, now it's a joke. We need more taxes on foreign controlled assets here. So many giant companies who own apartment buildings and investment properties, and just stealing from Americans.


Stealing?

You know what I mean. There are tons of countries with laws around foreign real estate investment. Artificially driving prices up to make Russian/Chinese rich isn't my favorite.

Going for the 2700 ya think?
2700 is a solid number but even if we violate it, I believe 2600 is worst case scenario. I'm not saying we rebound quickly but I think this correction is about to put in a floor. JMO.


2680 is next level down and totally agree... I think we're about to rebound.

I usually do my Roth max in both accounts this time of year. Will be doing that investment as soon as cash clears, so I guess I'll at least be getting some decent buys in.

Things I bought today.

Aapl
Goog
Msft
Crm
Sphd
Bby
Nvda

Can't recommend any more than putting money where mouth is.

I spent about half my cash on those.

The best tools imaginable for customer relations and interaction for maintaining business when you can't see customers and amazing analytics.

scroll and read boss... didn't multiple posters post 5 stocks they liked? Here, I'll go again...

AAPL
AMZN
DIS (long term, but might still dip more short term)
ROKU

and a smaller name that should rip in 2020:
TLRA (merging with RUBI)

or if you want to keep it really simple, SPY is cheap here.

Trump will throw everything and the kitchen sink at this and I don't think the house can afford to oppose him.

Any position is at major risk right now, long or short. Low liquidity and headline risk.

Nice, I'd prefer a down open and rally to put in a bottom on the markets.

We touched 2700 didn't we? We closed the gap and hit a major support. Could we be done?

The board seems consistent in that digital retail is the play...these appear be the most named :
AAPL
Amzn
Crm
Roku
Dis

We didn't hit 2700 even and today was ugly but a big down open and regular investors selling (capitulation) is what I'm looking for. That is usually the sign that the bottom is in or extremely close. Regardless, I think we're almost there anyway.

AAPL -- best ran company and 5G coming out this year

Amzn -- No explanation required

Crm -- Mentioned a few posts above, best in class

Roku -- Arms dealer of the streaming wars, must own

Dis -- insanely cheep for all their revenue streams

Ok so let's say we have another $100k for Index Funds or ETFs.

Vanguard indexes, SPY, NOBL?

I'd add IWM and SMH to SPY and NOBL and put 25K in each at these levels.

28. Have been sitting on the sidelines waiting for this, actually.

Thanks for the help.

Edit: I've maxed my 401k for the past two years now. Max my Roth every year.

Bought in on DOW and CAT today. DOW at 5 year low, CAT close to 3 year low. Long term hold for me.

Good discussion. Traffic in this thread will likely spike in coming days so hopefully my questions will mitigate similar ones being asked repetitively.

Now let's resume why we're really all here - - waiting for old army to tell us what/when to buy

Traffic has spiked in the last year. I told OA awhile back that our secret is getting out.
