Risk goes both ways, but yeah. Depends on your age and goals.

So, now that we’ve calmed down and I’ve apologized for inadvertently calling you out, I’m honestly curious and have a serious question. When you say you are “short” the market, what exactly do you mean? Are you underweight equities, all in cash, sitting in leveraged shorts? Where do you stand...

Well said. When you get a free annuity (such as when offered by your employer), take it. Otherwise, I would tend to agree. Nobody offers a “risk free guaranteed” return unless they are going to make more off your money than they pay you. And then of course, what happens to that “risk free...

Seem to have found a new friend. Good to see you have such self-confidence. You must not have noticed over all the blood rushing to your face, but I did mention risk and didn’t say the guy made the wrong decision, just offered comparison. I also noted the approximate historic annualized...

Just FYI, but the average annual return for the S&P 500 over that approximate time period was over 10%, basically it's historical average. Your money would have tripled if you'd put it in SPY or IVV. I get the risk of the annuity was, theoretically lower, just offering for comparison.

Buy the dips.

Most underrated post of the thread.

We also have a vaccine, herd immunity, and approved proven treatments for the flu. The sun will come up tomorrow. That’s what the markets say.

Forgot QQQ, which has performed very nicely and will likely continue to outperform until the clouds lift.

A - no it shouldn’t. Stock market discounts the future not the past. Stock market doesn’t buy the bull**** fear **** CNN and the evening news are peddling. B- bought on the way down, and continue to buy the dips. IVV, and high quality names like GS, JNJ, UPS, JPM, VZ, V, CVS, KO, DIS, IBM...
