Better than I thought I would be when I saw the futures this morning. Up .4 on the day but was higher earlier.

All the crypto whales have disappeared.

Gib will be back when bitcoin hits 50k+ again, telling us that he was right all along.

Accounts down around 1/2 a million thx to Pervy-Joe the pant-shitter and the commie-globalist ccp-libturdz. (We hope).
But it will bounce back when a Pubtard gets back in and stops the foolery w/ fake green-new deals and makes us an energy super-power again...

Down 4.4% over the past year. I'm all broad market and bond funds though.

Seems like it would be down more than that. What are your holdings?

I'm taking the approach that stock are on sale right now.

Historically if you just wait long enough and consistently pump (nh) money into a diverse (nh) enough portfolio, it goes up.

If I was retiring soon I'd be pissed, but then I'd also be pissed at myself for investing in risky things that late in life.

Most getbiggers are independently wealthy though.

I’m waiting to see an actual central bank pivot.

Meanwhile every man and his dog is trying to either short equities to Hades or front run the pivot.

People expect explosive moves So we get a painful slow grind up with it wicking both directions each day.

I have a couple of longs in profit at the moment.  I’m expecting 4,270+ Then a savage leg down perhaps to 3,200.

SCHZ, SHCB, SHCF. I have a lot in bonds. I am pretty conservative with the investing. I'm not any kind of financial expert, just risk averse.

Bonds took a worse dump than equities though. I can’t find the other two holdings. Down 4% only makes sense to me if the rest were equities in a dividend etf or something that didn’t get hit hard unlike the broad market which is still down 6.3% YOY. Something like SCHD comes to mind.

Market hasn't hit bottom yet.  Look for sucker bull market.

The latest government spending project just passed will prop up the markets for another year or so.

Inflation will continue and perhaps increase.

Sorry, SCHB and SCHF. But I goofed on the percentage. The first screen has some outside accounts linked that dilute everything and throw off the stock investments changes to make it less of a change overall than what I thought. If that makes sense.

I gotcha. I was just curious. I like SCHD as a dividend etf although I don’t own it, but I might add it to my Roth in retirement to have some nice quality, tax-free dividend action. I’m all in IVV, QQQ and VTI with a few individual dogs stocks but no bonds. I’m also still in my 30s. I don’t think I’ll add any bonds until 5-10 years out from retirement and it would just be used in case the market takes a dump and I go through 3-5 years of cash and am looking to sell something other than equities at lows.

Haven’t checked.  Liquidated my portfolio a couple years back and moved to real estate holdings, which are doing well.  Still keep an IRA for tax purposes but like I say, haven’t checked.
