It’s relatively cheap.

So I would just evaluate how much net worth you want to protect.

My insurance provider max out at 5M

I think sales will be up low single digits. Shoppers will be more value focused.

I’m sure after the last 2 weeks we all feel less wealthy since stock market has been taking it in the bottoms.

I never bet against the American consumer. People will shop and find a way to do so.
Best to stick to your plan.

20%+ annual gains don’t come without some heartburn. No free lunch
Might have to think about this one. Depends on when the game is played
Market sentiment has been driving stocks down.

Earnings have been positive.

In my opinion, we’re in a short term correction but will be higher at 12/31.

Markets get frothy and these periodic settlements are just markets doing there thing

I agree. It’s outta of control regardless of which party is in power.
Still feeling very good about the long term.

It’s hard to stomach weeks like this past one. Sentiment has turned negative on AI trade. Almost impossible to do anything about it. It’s only temporary so hang in there friends.

Love both movies.

However, A River Run Though It is my first choice.

Great movie, Redford narrating and as we get older movie has more meaning to me.
Yeah, doesn’t make sense. But still feel strong about the long term.

It never makes sense. These days/weeks seem to happen. Dust settles and stocks march forward.

People get spooked, sell stock, large investors come in buy shares at lower price. Little guys get comfortable, start reinvesting in market. Rinse repeat.
I want people to earn as much as they can.

I don’t stress over market swings. things go on sale…..
Maybe he’s right. Maybe he’s wrong.

I don’t plan to retire until about 10 years out so we can ride out the waves.
It’ll be ok. Still long in the stock and feel good about the next several years. Never a straight line up!
Base portfolio are index funds

NVDA
NBIS
RYCEY
AAPL

Interested what others are doing.
I’m curious to see what impact a prolonged government shutdown will have on markets.

Last week sentiment shifted as I’ve started seeing a lot of narrative about the AI bubble. Think this is more of an opportunity to take some profits. And the periodic settling that occurs after stock market runs.

Yeah, I’ve got a little less than 3k shares.

Definitely tempting if this thing works out as it could be a 20x easy.
About a year from retirement I’ll put 1.5 year of living expenses in a money market type fund
I think having a solid ETF base makes sense before investing in individual stocks.

One thing I always remember is people always share wins but don’t often hear about the misses. It’s a bull market now but it isn’t always this easy.

Always a good reminder that in a bull market everyone thinks they’re smarter than they really are and very few can actually beat the market consistently.

I’d like to learn more about options but also at the same time know you can lose your shirt pretty quickly.
