I would highly encourage a MUCH bigger Postion in penny stocks
Somewhere between 5-90% feels about right.

This is a topic i’ve been considering and was planning dedicating some of my late night research/reading to tonight. What is considered a healthy mix? Currently my 401k is 90% FXAIX and 10% stocks (taking a chance with some AT picks).
I’ve been seeing the ARK ETFs and was thinking of maybe putting 10% or so in 1 or 2 of those. Curious to learn how to maximize my current money in the market.

Yeah for someone who knows what he’s doing and/or will take the time to research etc. For a passive investor or someone with low risk tolerance, I think 100 percent SP500 Index fund makes a lot of sense. And a lot of people who “think” they know what they’re doing really don’t. And unless you’re sitting on a mountain of wealth, paying someone high fees to do it for you is unwise in many cases.

I suggest you not frick around with your 401k. Penny stocks are a hobby like golf, hunting, etc.

That’s what you think you were doing, making an effort to discuss the pros and cons of a stock?

Not many 401ks you can do anything but ETFs. And if youre at a small company? They could careless if you make $1 on youir 401k. SO thats REALLY rare for a 401k to allow the freedom of investing in what YOU want. Most have ETFs.
Now IRAs? yes you have 100% freedom unless youre paying a firm to do the investing for you?
I have pennies in my IRA. probably around 3-4% tops. I can afford that risk. I wouldnt go higher. I can actually do my own DD on regular stocks and hit well. No where near the jump pennies can take overnigth. But long term investing. I've beat the market.

If you’re just starting to research on your own, take a look at the holdings in a target date retirement fund. Pick the year you plan to retire and find the corresponding fund, then look at the fund fact sheets and other metrics to see what Vanguard, Blackrock, JPMorgan, etc are doing for the masses. If they’re 3% in China or 6% in small caps, it gives you some idea of where to start for yourself. Build from there based on your own comfort with risk and goals.

So slackster ran of AT so he can be our "expert?"
Great job slackster I hope this is the attention you are looking for

Why the hell would anyone run off someone like AT? Damn this board can suck at times

This thread is essentially worthless for actually discussing ZOM now.

agree with you here.
there will be a time to grind fundamentals sometime soon but now is not that time. Now is the time to take some risk
you guys that are taking on risk right now are right whether you know it or not

What he fails to see is that these penny stocks aren’t a part of our solid investing retirement plans. Most of us are investing in pennies as a gamble and using a little play money. He is so into his fundamentals, that he can’t comprehend someone throwing a few thousand into something to see what happens.
Now that those of us are up big time by listening to AT, most of us have already pulled out profits and are riding house money at this point.

I tried explaining that to him yesterday with actual numbers and I think it still didn't fully click.

I don’t agree with your premise, but that’s not the point. I’m not saying to match them, I’m saying to start there and build out your own mix. You have to start somewhere. If you are 90% in the S&P 500 and don’t know where else to start, you can do a lot worse than starting with the breakdown of LIVKX for a 30 year old.
