I have about 6K sitting in my settlement fund in my vanguard account.

Going to put in a limit buy for what today's lows were in case we test them again.

What fund/etf do yall recommend?

TIA

I added VISGX today in my Vanguard Roth. It should settle at end of day closing price. I think small/mid caps will benefit the most from the tax reform this year

Personally, I'm buying defense contractor stocks right now.

Well Vanguard keeps crashing so I guess it doesn't matter.

But I thought all those Vanguard investors were passive? Why is their website crashing if no one is paying any attention to it?

Is it really? I haven't even tried to log in.

This is when I'm happy my wife doesn't care about finances. She has no idea this is even going on so I can just stay the course.

I own SCHD. I add to it every month. It’s pretty much the aggressive portion of my savings account. It’s solid and got low fees.

I’ve got about 5500 in cash sitting in my IRA form Whole Foods buy out, think I’m jump on that one, especially after this recent dip. One of my Ira is through Schwab so should work out great

I had looked into the defense contractors right after the election but already missed the boat and everything was climbing sky high but their outlook for the next two to three years should be quite good. Any in particular you would recommend taking a look at?
