Baron Rothschild's investment advice from the 19th century still applies...

"It's time to buy when there's blood in the streets...even if the blood is your own."
Some people dispute the origin of that statement but that's my story and I'm s-s-s-stickin' to it!
I invested 50% of my parked cash hoard in the market this morning. :fingerscrossed:

Market down 5% is not blood in the streets.

So, it's a good thing the index ETF (DIA) I bought is down 9%.
And I still have 50% of my cash available.

I seem to remember in February of March of 2009 you thought we hit the bottom. Do you remember? You were right.

By the end of March...will be the time to go 'all in' long in the stock market, IMO.

That was during the Great Recession and the S&P 500 had plummeted by 54%.
The S&P 500 hit its recession low on March 6, 2009.
I'd rather be lucky than smart...

Now is a great time to buy. The Straights of Hormuz WILL re-open and when it does, oil will fall dramatically and stocks will go up bigly. The question is when?? It should be very soon.
You cannot wait for it to actually happen because it will be too late, too many insiders on Wall Street will beat you to it, gotta get in now, and the market may still go down for a few days or maybe a week, but it’s real close.

When did you accumulate the cash? Above 46,000 on the DJIA?

By Trump's timeline, another 2-3 weeks.

Anyone else wonder if we’re eating our own tails here? In the past, we pumped demand up and had no problems with spend. These days, with automation, we are outpacing demand with supply?

I trade at the end of the quarter, but I'm looking forward to buying cheap.

What bloodbath?
I’ve been buying different LNG stocks for a while now and they are all sitting pretty.

Are you in the covered call strategies or unhedged? I forget your process

Two modes of investing. For growth, it’s value cost averaging between a leveraged ETF (TQQQ) and a total bond market fund (AGG). For income, it’s rote rebalancing at specific percentages among three funds — an “income” fund (GPIQ), a “stock” fund (TQQQ), and a managed bond fund (PYLD). I use quotes because the mechanics of those ETFs are not traditional. Most of my assets are in income now, but I still have a significant amount in growth.
EDIT: The “income” and managed bond fund are different than what I’ve reported in the past for the income model I use.

If that's the case then my 8,000 shares of XOM are doing pretty good...UP another 2.5% (+$4.00/share as I post this) today.
But XOM is NOT the "market."

Agreed… but the index is like what- down 7% from all time highs? Got to have some patience
