Thank you so much for the video and spreading this information.
My pleasure, glad you enjoyed it 🙏
Always with a smile! Good job on the vid and the positive attitude as always. I know some days may differ in mood but you are a pro 🎉🎉🎉 and i always enjoy watching
Aww, thank you 🙏 As you said, sometimes we are all a bit like the markets, some up's and some down's but overall, just like our investments, our mood should mostly be positive 😉 Cheers
I invest monthly in the S&P500, is the account managed were this is sold and bought back or am I just holding stocks that rise and you sell years down the line? I was told the stock compound invests but I don’t understand how.
Hi Jack 👋 When you invest monthly in the S&P 500, you're generally buying shares of a fund that tracks the index, like an ETF or mutual fund. It's more about holding onto these shares and letting their value grow over time rather than actively buying and selling.
The "compounding" part comes into play as the value of these shares increases and dividends (if any) are reinvested. This way, your investment has the potential to grow more because you're earning returns on your returns, not just on your original investment. It's like rolling a snowball down a hill - it picks up more snow (value) as it rolls (time passes). Keep at it, and let time work its magic! 💪📈 Remember, I'm just sharing my journey, and it's crucial to do your own research or consult a professional for personalized advice. Keep the questions coming! Cheers
@@SmartMoneywithKai thank you appreciate the quick response 🙂
Bro hope u reply;
I am planning to invest in sp500 buying stocks but am from Morocco.. I can't register in Vanguard or fedility.. they are just for Us and Europe residents .. do you have any idea of a broker I should use to invest in sp500?
Hi mate, in Morocco you can use Interactive Brokers, they are available. And then you can buy S&P500, either VOO or VUSA from Vanguard👌 Cheers
@@SmartMoneywithKai I appreciate that thanks.. I'll see .. if I have any issues I'll tell u
🥰🥰
@@amaros2118 Great and my pleasure ✌
before I do not investment interested when I see your video I'm happy you are my Boss
😉🙌
I buy the VUAA instead of the VUSA. I don't want to pay extra commissions to reinvest the dividents. I want to raise my portfolio as much as possible it's not the time to live off of the dividents yet.
That's awesome and great option as well, always a very individual decision. Thanks for sharing. Cheers
Hey great video, ive been wanting to get into traditional trading such as S&P 500 i appreciate the coverage you give it here. I have one question tho , even if you are investing long term can you opt to pull money out of postions if you anticpate a bear market or are you locked in? I dont know much about the dynamic at play if you are taking dividends there maybe stipulations i am not aware of.
Hi 👋
Glad you enjoyed the video! When investing in the S&P 500 or any other index, you’re not locked in-you can sell your positions anytime, even in a bear market.
For long-term investors, it’s generally better to stay the course and ride out market fluctuations. However, if you anticipate a downturn and want to pull out, you absolutely can. Just be aware of potential tax implications and the risk of missing out on a rebound.
Dividends don't usually come with stipulations that lock you in; they are just a nice bonus while you hold the investment.
Cheers
your every video for me knowledge 🎞️🎞️📈📈📈🙏
Thanks a lot, glad to hear that 🙏
Great video Ki. Thanks. I’m still torn between SP500 and FTCE whole world. I currently have both but would just like to invest in one.
Also I have one Coca Cola share jus for fun😂
Good choice, can never go wrong with Coke 👌😉
Thanks a lot 🙌 Don't know FTCE too well but just compared both performance over the last 10 years and S&P clearly is way ahead so my choice would be easy 😉
I’m new to this and want to invest some money. Should I be worried that the risk rating is a 6/7?
Hi, not sure what you invested in exactly? 6/7 seems high and does not sound like you invested in the S&P, which is one of the less risky investments you can do, though all investment types have inherent risk. Cheers
@@SmartMoneywithKai thanks so much for your replies. When I go on my investments, this is what it says; S&P 500 UCITS ETF - Accumulating (VUAG)
When I first purchased it, it said the risk was 6/7(vanguard) which is confusing as I thought it was low risk? Thanks again for your reply
@@SmartMoneywithKai I have purchased the one in your video S&P 500 UCITS ETF - Accumulating (VUAG)
The risk indicator is a 6/7. Can you help me out. Do I need to change it?
Thank you
Hi and not sure how they evaluate that, but 6/7 seems high, not sure how they would rate investing in Tesla shares 20/7 😂 Investing in 500 different companies across different sectors seems pretty diversified to me and returning over the last 30 years 8-9% year on year has a solid track record 👌 Cash might be less risky but also less attractive, so I am personally very happy with that level of risk. Cheers
I have just invested £500 to get me going. How often will I see a change in my investment? Does it happen daily/weekly/monthly?
Thanks
Hi 👋
Congrats on starting your investment journey with the S&P 500! Here's what you can expect:
Frequency of Changes:
Daily: The value of your investment can change every day the stock market is open. The S&P 500 index updates throughout the trading day as the prices of the underlying stocks change.
Weekly/Monthly: While you'll see daily fluctuations, it's more common to assess your investment performance on a weekly or monthly basis to get a clearer picture of trends and avoid reacting to short-term volatility.
What to Watch:
Daily Prices: You can check daily updates through your brokerage account or financial news websites.
Monthly Statements: Your broker typically provides monthly statements showing the value of your investments and any changes.
Remember, investing in the S&P 500 is a long-term strategy. It's normal for the market to go up and down in the short term. Focus on the bigger picture and your long-term goals.
Cheers,
Kai
I have dream buy tesla shares still waiting everyday value down
If you want you can buy them of course, for me Tesla is much too risky and volatile 😉
That time I'm investment zalando 3 shares growth 📈
If you like the stock great, not for me though 👋
Slow down. This information may be new to a lot of people.
You can slow the playback speed in the TH-cam players, most of my viewers make it faster so it’s impossible to please all😉 Cheers
Thanks for continues updates! I am super excited about how my stock investments is going so far, making over $160k every week is an amazing gain🥰
Not a bad week😉 Earning $160K a week, you should have your own channel, we can all learn from you 😂😂😂
