[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Didn’t read whole thread, but I put about 30% into G when Trump started his madness back in 2035.  Only regret is that I didn’t put more there.  I truly think he is hellbent on ruining this country.  He knows he is hated and this is his middle finger to us.[/quote]

What a bad decision.  Hopefully you are near retirement, otherwise that is likely a very costly mistake.[/quote]

Preserving capital until there is more clarity on world events is never a mistake. [/quote]

This is market timing.  Of course it is a mistake.[/quote]

OP had good instincts, but as a rule don’t use feelings or hunches.  Same with the people agreeing with him that use Trump as part of their reasoning.  Don’t let your bias sway your investing.

The actual data supports OP.  The SP500 broke down and is now in a a downward trend below the 200 day MA.  Don’t be swayed by big up days.  The biggest up days often come in downtrends.  It is ok to miss those.  People like to give the stats when you miss the biggest up days, but never seem to give them when you miss the biggest down days.  Nobody was better off for being fully invested on Black Monday. That’s just nuts.  It didn’t come out of nowhere either, the market was dropping for over a month before it.

Ask your favorite AI how growth stocks behave with rising inflation and rising long duration bonds like we have right now.

Also, Buffet is sitting on his largest cash balance ever.  I guess he is just a novice investor that doesn’t know anything, but I think he probably understands what the Buffet indicator and CAPE ratio mean.
