The S&P 500 trajectory has continually gone up over its entire history - clearly there are peaks and valleys - but it’s always gone up. What are you even talking about?

Did we not recover from the 2008 financial crash? Did we not recover from Covid? Did we not recover from the inflationary crash in 2022? Did we not recover from the Trump tariff idiocy in 2025?

My friend, you do you. I enjoying this market insanity and buying crypto stocks and momentum ETFs and this and that, but in the back of my mind I know that stagflation is coming. Look at the PPI reports. Look at the data today. Everything is fine, until it’s not. We are on borrowed time economically and these tariffs will exact their pound of flesh in the near future. I’m gonna by ETHA until like October or December and then start slowly buying more GLDM.

Of course the market will “crash” again. And then it will go back up to reach a new peak at some later point. The problem you have is trying to figure out when it has reached a bottom and when it has reached a top. I don’t have that problem because I continually invest in the S&P index fund and don’t sell.

Couldn't you just respond to the title of the thread if you had advice? It's pretty obvious that Trump is going to create long-term problems

Your question remains unclear. If you think the economy is going to implode, there is no question: you should sell all of your stocks and put all of your assets towards shorting stocks. If you're not doing that, you simply don't REALLY think the economy is going to implode.

Except I would stay away from gold - it has no inherent value and it's ultimately a ponzi scheme.

Gold does have intrinsic value for electronics and some industrial applications. Also, it looks pretty. The intrinsic value is low and not reflected by the price.

I agree that it's a bad investment, but it isn't wortless.

Put it all in T bills and government bonds. Then you’ll be safe.

Trump is awful, yes. But there are literally unprecedented seismic events continually throughout history and the market chugs along. Rising and falling in the short term but averaging 8-10% a year in the long term. We just went through a freaking global pandemic a few years ago. An enormous financial crisis in 2008. September 11th! Do you not remember how crazy and unprecedented those times were? They weren’t that long ago - and look where the market stands today.

Do you remember that in 2022 the market went down like 25%? But again, who cares? Stocks were on sale and they recovered.

You’re not smart if you try to time the market. Dollar cost average in and never sell. It’s so obvious. Read the threads from three months ago. People lost serious money because they let politics dictate their finances.

Fight to push the bad people out of office, but don’t give up your hard earned money and earning potential based on politics.

It’s truly unbelievable. Literally went through this same discussion in dramatic fashion 3 months ago only to watch the market climb to well above all time highs. And now people are freaking out all over again.

There are many feeble minded boomers who consume msnbc non stop.

Maybe but somehow they got all the money and you don't. How that happened?? No, don't answer.

They have been doing this for years. Every heard of buy low sell high ? Warren is the master at this. He will not overpay for anything, especially when short term treasuries yield over 4%. He is minting money while he waits for the “fat pitch.”

There’s a reason why he’s a household name. to think you can time the market and achieve the same results as buffet is pretty insane but good luck with that

Is waiting for the fat pitch not a form of market timing?
