    Biggest lesson i learnt in 2024 in the stock market is that nobody knows what is going to happen next, so practice some humility and follow a strategy with a long term edge.

      Nobody knows anything; You need to create your own process, manage risk, and stick to the plan, through thick or thin, While also continuously learning from mistakes and improving.

      Uncertainty... it took me 5 years to stop trying to predict what bout to happen in market based on charts studying, cause you never know. not having a mentor cost me 5 years of pain I learn to go we’re the market is wanting to go and keep it simple with discipline.

    My advice to new investors: Buy good companies stocks and hold them as long as they are good companies. Just do this and ignore the forecasts and market views which are at best entertaining but completely useless.

      The key to achieving substantial returns isn’t chasing big-moving stocks; it’s about managing risk relative to reward. Position sizing is crucial, and consistently applying your edge as often as needed to reach your goals. This principle applies to everything from long-term investing to day trading.

      Due to my demanding job, I lack the time to thoroughly assess my investments and analyze individual stocks. Consequently, for the past seven years, I have enlisted the services of a fiduciary who actively manages my portfolio to adapt to the current market conditions. This strategy has allowed me to navigate the financial landscape successfully, making informed decisions on when to buy and sell. Perhaps you should consider a similar approach.

    I was advised to diversify my portfolio among several assets such as stocks and bonds since this can protect my inherited portfolio of about $2.5m. I’m used to just buying and holding assets which doesn’t seem applicable to the current rollercoaster market plus inflation is catching up with my portfolio. I’m really worried about survival after retirement.

      True, I mostly just buy and hold stocks, but my portfolio has been mostly in the red for quite awhile now. Unfortunately to be able to make good gains, you’ll need to be consistent and restructure your portfolio frequently.

    My portfolio for the past 30 years has always been self managed and I own 3 shares of Berkshire Hathaway Class A stock (BRK:A) which I bought in at about $17,000 during the mid 90s, I'm currently liquidating some of these positions to incoporate new Gen.

    Investing in the stock market has HISTORICALLY provided higher returns than other forms of investment. According to Morningstar, the average annual return for the S&P 500 index, which measures the performance of 500 large-cap stocks, was approximately 10% from 1926 to 2020.

      The 2008-09 crash saw markets fall, wiping out trillions of dollars around the world, but savvy investors recognized a once-in-a-lifetime buying power, with companies' stocks on the market at deep discounts. With markets recovering from the Great Recession, these investors realized tremendous gains from their assertive maneuvers. I'm no savvy-investor, but the one method I've relied on to gain rapidly during times like this is having an asset-coach guide me. It may sound cliche, but I've been able to pull off over $750k this year alone using just this single method.

    I was born in 1969 and I don't hold the memory that the economy was that great in the 1980s. My parents farmed and that did not go well. My first job off the farm was retail. When the stock market crashed the company lost it's operating capital. Our stock became "junk bond." status. They ended up selling the company to a competitor's retired CEO. The company basically juggled its books for 2 years and declared bankruptcy in 1989. They try to downplay the stock market crash of 1987 and the Saving and Loan collapse as insignificant events that happened. Although not everyone faired well in trickle-down economics.

    The narrative was wrong, the crash was due to computerized selling triggers. Once one system issued a sell, they would all start selling. The computer program was designed around very basic scenarios which did not reflect real life. Therefore it failed. As you can see afterwords the market indexes returned to their normal levels once the computer systems were turned off and manual processes resumed. Even in the 80s the software and hardware were very primitive. Imagine running a 1980s 10-12 megahertz CPU vs 4 gigahertz CPU today.

    was a glitch and the market would be back at it's current level in a few weeks. Turned out he was right. When we later asked him how he knew this he simply stated ignore what the market is doing and ask yourself is the economy fundamentally sound and if the pe ratios make sense or not and what the debt levels are of the nation in question.

    Altria, Verizon ... whenever they were available 40% below their then all-time highs, you got them for a good price. Reinvest the dividends, and the cake grows bigger over decades. Obviously, there'll never be a "get rich quick" system that actually works, superhighrisk will mean total ruin for 99% of investors because there are no high returns available without taking on high risk (Finance 101).
    But with quarterly dividends, the best thing for a new investor who can save would be a crash in the american stockmarket, because its long-term trend is up and quality companies like Altria and Verizon will continue to do well.
