Buy target for spy or qqq or tqqq and which would you recommend

Bills are yielding 4.3%? That's a pretty solid risk free rate, only reason i have this amount. Always like to have some dry powder also.

I'm not that guy, I just buy every two weeks and will next payday like normal. Time in the market has always prevailed over timing the market statistically so I never deviate regardless of events. You look at data compiled with S&P500 ETF investments, missing the 10 best days in 20 years would cut your return in half. If you're trying to always avoid the worst, you might just miss the best. I am not smart enough to beat the Street or the algorithms it uses so I don't try.

Ofc

I found 1000 bucks on the ground and am trying to decide if I want to buy now or in an hour hehe

Use margin, borrow 3x on it and toss it into UPRO.


I used to actually frequent bogleheads and ran that notorious 60/40 UPRO TMF split in my younger years, and it worked out, but eventually I questioned what I was doing.

Let's make sure we all say thank you

eyewatering losses

most of us have prob never experienced a true bear market

People tend to forget so freakin fast. This is just a small breeze compared to 01 and 09. Noone knows how far this one will go, but im sure inflation will slow it down.

During stagflation markets tend to act different compared to a regular deflationary state.

I bought today, automated buy for every week for roughly 6months.

Good luck to all of you!

A lost decade. Good luck. We're all young here. We should all do well.

Wtf.

A recession is when your neighbor gets laid off, a depression is when you get laid off. Stay safe out there.
