Seven hype fueled AI stocks, now down to five trying to keep this shit show rolling. Totally normal.

Meanwhile manufacturing continues to contract and those multiple rate cuts the AI tards have priced in aren’t looking so good, especially after today.

Do you know a buddy and I were talking about this exact thing this week. We truly are in a different time with a different consumer base. An entirely different set of expectations.

I see, way Way way way more people that like to spend, live life, have experiences, and do the next big thing. I don't see that many people that like to do the miserly beans and rice life in their 800 square-foot abode.

That alone, dictates demand in an economy in my opinion.

#live yo life!!!!

None of us are getting any younger. I've also helped pack a few caskets, and I've had yet to see money in any of them.

Most of you are in the greatest country on earth. You already won the lottery. Go enjoy life.

Why not get both?  

I have seen more than one "consultant" state they felt that midcaps will outperform the S&P in 2024 due to being so undervalued (or underperforming, however you look at it)

I've been hearing that yarn for years.  Small cap included, but at least I can get more sector specific with small cap.

Midcap has just consistently been underwhelming me and due to portfolio construction.... recommendations.... I'm sitting on a sizeable amount doing... nothing.

I'm starting to think Utilities makes sense. Vanguard Utilities ETF is down about 20 percent over the past 18 months, but over the last 10 years has made on average 8 percent per year.

Things were on sale a month ago...


And a year ago...


And 5 years ago...


And 40 years ago...



So it is likely, that for a long-term investor, things are on sale today.

For someone with a shorter term, maybe not as much.  Maybe so.  Hedge your bets.

Utilities don't do well with high interest rates and high fuel prices.  Might be a good buy now though.  I bought a lot of my employer's stock at a 5 year low.  Of course it went down another 10%.  I still think I will do well on it though.

I would argue for long term wealth building it’s not a bet. But a sure thing.

The only problem with that is it’s adjusted for inflation. It averages 10% compounding returns.

So when people say “but it only does 7%”, that’s the adjusted for inflation. In terms of total dollars it’s 10%

True. But don’t forget average bull is about 3-4 years so still plenty of room in this one. Bear is typically like 11 months. Which the previous bear followed almost to a tee.

Damn it’s good to be permabull.  If you want your 10% average returns you gotta take the punches and not be scared. Embrace the bear. Afterall it’s when you make the most money long term.

You wanna know why I’m so vocal in money threads?  Because I made big mistakes. Hindsight yada. Understand risk vs time.

I’ve seen my shit swing 100k in a fucking month. But what I’ve learned is stay the course.

I honestly just check the monthly and quarterly statements by mail. My risk and financial plan doesn’t change. My financial plan dictates my investing. That plan will generate the income I want.  

That plan is based on 100 years of history. Gimme muh 10%.

Watching your posts over the past few years have helped me stay the course. I don't have your level of income or savings, and my best hope is to die early, but last year was the first time I was able to max out my IRA, 401k, and HSA. Aiming to do it again this year. Was contributing in previous years, just not to this extent.

People talk about how divorce is the most expensive thing that can happen to someone and it's not.

It's absolutely investment mismanagement and not saving.
