I'm retired and Trump's gross mismanagement of the economy has cost me $20,000 in the last couple of months. It's going to take the country years to recover from his disastrous policies. Don't know how we'll dig out of the massive deficit his budget has. But I guess I shouldn't complain, I got an extra $50 income tax refund last year. Don't know how I would have gotten by without that. ;:;banghead

It depends how long you intend to stay in the market.

If it's more than a year or two, you probably left a lot of money on the table.

No. Now I have cash for buying opportunities. It pays to pay attention to what’s happening if you’re going to invest in plain stocks. I’m not a guy that doesn’t pay attention to what my money is doing.

Earning reports in october were great for many stocks. Make double diget percents in a few even. In and out, pay the short term capital gains and call it a day.

Be fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful. -Warren Buffett- The stock market is no place for those who can’t keep their emotions in check. The stock market is having Black Friday sales right now.....

Take your Apple phone. Put it down your ice. Hole and never buy another one. Our swings are related to a company that makes toys in China. What are we becoming????

I remember some years back when the market hammered down, talked with dad that evening and he had lost nearly $375,000 in one day in his 401k. His emotions regarding the stock market were always in check and he said, I'm buying a shit load of cheap stock right now, give it a few years and ill make back triple or more what I lost. Turned out he made a hell of a lot more than triple back. He retired about a month ago at 62 years young after a 35 year career with one company. Everything came back around, just had to give it some time. Have faith my friends, like another stated, you're buying black Friday stocks right now.

In 8 years when you retire, you'll look back on this time and say thanks to the stock market, because it's going to make you a shit load of money in the next 8 years on the stocks you're buying this week.

-- and in 8 years if it doesn't, I have a van you can live in down by my river on the back 40.

We have had a 9 year bull run, a correction was inevitable at some point. Part of me hopes it gets a lot worse yet, I'm not going anywhere or retiring anytime soon.

I wish i would have been my current age/financial situation back in 2009 and could have dumped a shit ton of money in the market. That may have been a once in a lifetime opportunity. I talked about it, but was tough to do that as a young 25 year old who had just built a house, I didn't exactly have oodles of cash lying around to gamble with. The good news is i did have basically perfect timing on the house, because starting in spring 2010 Bismarck housing market went up, up, up!

My old man did the logarithms on the market and didnt hit the dips --- i stayed with the market --- who made more in the end --- my dad



Apple stock --- last night somewhere around 178 a share ----they pay average of .63cents a share per quarter for a dividend. That is a whole whopping $2.46 --- a 1.4% rate of return --- but short its is valuation --- its worth 1 trillion 5billion shares --- 200 bucks per share give or take (alot of taking this month)--- book value is only 21 per share --- is the valuation accurate??? One little ripple--- is the risk worth the return.

And somebody brought up baby boomers!!!!


Bottom line --- what short would like to see in the USA --- to make america great again.

1. no withholding tax ---- all taxpayers write checks for taxes -- in other words a total education of taxpayers to see what they pay in taxes.

2. Sales taxes - each and every purchase the govt would be required to send you a monthly along with annual statement showing how much you paid in sales taxes and fuel taxes.

3. No more federal interest rates -- -I want to invest my money in an institution and have them borrow it out --- What interest rate is decided by a free market -- not some corrupt govt.

- - - Updated - - -

3 simple laws would have the largest effect this country would ever see in its entire lifetime.

The stock market is a long term investment not something to fool with even on a yearly basis unless you know what you're doing and are prudent about it, most aint. Way too many "investers who slept at a holiday inn express last night" looking to make quick money now days with e-trade and others. Some years are good others bad you got to ride the waves man! If you're close to retirement you should have already had your money in low risk investments. If your like me and a slave for another 15 years let her buck!
