>I'm new to the stock market, what stocks should I buy? Before you buy anything, make a brokerage account and read investopedia articles and/or the books in the OP list. If you don't have a broker, you can't buy stocks, and if you blindly buy things without understanding how the stock market works or doing any research on the individual stocks you're buying, you will lose money and it will be entirely your fault.
wtf when this board become another r9k but with more focus on money
John Taylor
since crypto entered the bear market
Lucas Martinez
it is an unfortunate inevitability with the format of this site that any rise in popularity is directly proportional to an increase in shit/feel posting
Isaac Brooks
why don't people just trade stocks with an high leverage
would give the same volatility like crypto
Nicholas Bennett
Cuz most oldfags dumped their bags during Dec/early Jan and left forever. The remaining ones either hodl and an hero'd or left the site to avoid the pain and 'hodl till next yr'. Even the newfags who entered in Dec left. The shills left. Pretty much everyone left.
Justin Scott
more leverage does not mean more volatility
Levi Ward
why do people even "invest" if they can only get like 6-8% a year? you'd already have to be rich for that to do jackshit
Ryder Turner
yeah but an near equal feeling
i for example currently holding barrick gold with an 7x leverage which menas for every % barrick goes up i get 7% up and barrick ist currently fucking mooning
Jaxson Jackson
why do people put money in banks when you only get .001%
Jaxson Cooper
investing with a 50x leverage makes this 6-8% into 300% to 400%
Mason Perez
It is better than nothing and adds up nicely over time?
The point is to invest a lot of small sums over time and get rich slowly but surely.
Jaxon Green
I concur with your opinion. Spending money and consuming product is better.
Thanks, comparing prices rn, plus IBKR. Not sure which to choose yet.
Xavier White
yea definitely buy up, wwe isn't on the edge of a massive dump right now or anything.
Luis Campbell
Because 300 a month with compound interest of 8% is 700k from 25 to 60. That's 56k a year without invading capital. Do the math yourself.
Honestly everyone here could oil rig for 10 years and retire VERY comfortably.
Joseph Hernandez
Do I still buy stocks like MSFT if they are also in the top 10 positions in my Index Fund ?
Owen Reyes
Depend on their viewership But if they are desperate enough to try to appeal to China, it can't be good.
Christopher Phillips
6-8% is average. If you invested in an S&P index 5 years ago: Dec. 31, 2018 10.56% Dec. 31, 2017 21.83% Dec. 31, 2016 11.96% Dec. 31, 2015 1.38% Dec. 31, 2014 13.69% Dec. 31, 2013 32.39%
You literally have no idea what you're talking about, chances are you're poor and chances are you're going to remain that way for the rest of your life.
ok cool so all the money has been made the last 5 years and instead of getting even average returns for the next 5 now you'll get below average (negative). have fun
Juan Phillips
90% of people in SMG threads are stupid sheep only open to considering buying things that already pumped into oblivion beyond what would make sense with even the most optimistic future earnings scenarios in mind.
That's all. I just wanted to say that. Also I hate you. Have a nice day.
>90% of people in SMG threads are stupid sheep only open to considering buying things that already pumped into oblivion beyond what would make sense with even the most optimistic future earnings scenarios in mind. This has been Jow Forums culture since the beginning. It's your job to find the diamonds in the rough.
James Turner
>10 year bull run comes to an end >he is buying index funds now Literally the worst shit you could hold in the upcoming bear market.
Plus500 has extreme overnight costs...i wouöd bot choose that...it is one of the sites where people loose the most Dont choose it...you will loose your money there
Dow and Sp down 10%. This been a huge sell off. First dip buying opportunity now, if blood bath continues this week, even better. Then if drops 10-15% furthers which is unlikely, second barrel comes and you should be a near bottom buyer.
Even 2008 Dow-tr dropped monthly level only ~37% and that was way worse scenario than now.
To drop below 50% and keep there you basically need to wipe out all large US banks like 1929 and at that point buying the dio 10% too early is last thing on peoples mind as whole society would collapse.
I want to start investing, but it seems we're about to meet a bear market. Is it possible to make a profit in these conditions or should I try something else?
Ian Foster
During 2019 after the recovery of this correction move some index funds to defensive sectors like consumer Staples and health care etf's.
Then hold.
Landon Morales
Doesn't come close to negating the growth since it's outpaced 3-4x
Would you stop fucking shilling b*rrick? I might’ve bought it before but now I absolutely won’t just to spite
Gabriel Brooks
Puts. Only need like a 200 bucks or so to do spy puts.
Isaiah Taylor
>For every % gold gains this stock currently get ~8% up Hm how tf does that work?
Landon Cox
>Would you stop fucking shilling b*rrick? I might’ve bought it before but now I absolutely won’t just to spite you should look into LCI
Daniel Flores
Exactly, 250 bucks in an TD ameritrade account or something like that and buy funds that bet against the market, make money in a recession, it's simple.
