After experimenting with stocks since late 2021, I've shifted to 100% S&P 500. Still regretting not doing so from the start. Now i am Considering a return to individual stocks in 2024, but uncertain about safely investing close to 300k in the market.
Everyone needs a Margin of Safety in their portfolios and just remember, It's time in the market versus timing the market.
I know nothing about trading/ Investing and I'm keen on getting started . What are some strategies to get started with ?
As a beginner, it's essential for you to have a mentor to keep you accountable.
I'm guided by a widely known crypto consultant
De-risk your portfolios, shore up your core holdings, and take some profits while balancing your portfolio allocations. I’d also suggest you go with a managed portfolio, but even those don’t perform so well, so it’s best you reach out to a proper fiduciary
Investors are extremely alarmed by the impending recession and the Fed's rhetoric of raising interest rates. My $600,000 stock portfolio has lost 25% of it’s value. Whats the best way to hedge my portfolio to make profit in this coming recession
Everyone is uneasy due to the continuous wars in the Middle East. To get assistance with your portfolio, you ought to speak with an FA.
True, some folks employ hedging strategies or devote a portion of their portfolio to defensive assets that perform well during market downturns and such pointers are provided by engaging the services of market experts just like i did in 2019, amid rona-outbreak, and as of today, i can boost of a 45% enhancement on my $1m portfolio after acquiring assets recommended by my advisor.
That's impressive! I could really use the expertise of this advsors.
Lauren Marie Ehlers is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment..
Thanks for sharing, I just looked her up on the web and I would say she really has an impressive background in investing. I will write her an e-mail shortly.
Let's be clear, current inflation was caused by the Fed and Congress's RESPONSE to the pandemic. Both Republican and Democrats in Congress voted for stimulus packages that more than necessary and the Fed waited to long to begin tightening conditions once the stimulus packages were approved by Congress.
Russian ukraine is also a huge contributor. Energy prices did skyrocket. But if only fed and congress are at fault why is/was the inflation a global problem. If you compare the us with other industrial nations the us got great through covid. Inflation is the same as in other countries while unemployment and growth is way higher than in every other comparable country
💯
You also omitted to tell people that the fed were already printing $80B a month before the pandemic. Why? Because Trump bullied JP and forced him to stop raising rates in 2019. Why was JP raising rates at the time? He could see the risk of inflation 🤷♂️
@@Felix-op1rw that's not hard to answer. Most countries sent people home, and their central banks printed money.
Yeah, keep in mind, the ALTERNATIVE was far, far worse. Everybody forgets about what would've happened WITHOUT the response to the pandemic. It would've been absolutely horrific.
The semiconductor was supposed to be the main reason autos were so high, now that it's back to normal the prices are still high. Anything to continue excuse for high prices.
Yes, the excuse is there is a new floor. People are still purchasing vehicles that were 28k in 2018 for 41k today. If sales fall enough prices will but if people are willing to pay the prices will stay. Same reason home prices are still high, people are still paying the high prices. If vehicle sales fall of a cliff we'll get our lower prices.
The feds will not cut rates. Welcome to 1980-1989. When interest rates were 18-21% and housing was even higher. People need to live in their means not what someone else has. Because in the end. They to have the car Repo. And they get Foreclosed on. Don't live the Tic Tok life. We did not. And we had to find a way and we did.
Evercore founder Roger Altman adding good perspective and giving some very sage advice.
Like what.
He's kind of a left-handed mechanic though, no?

Amazing how many words can be spoken without saying anything that matters
live to this age and still hesitate to tell the truth
Fed and congress at fault. Fed balance sheet grew by trillions in the past years. That is not sustainable.
Charging Up 16 % Mon. FSRN... Fisker. 3 additional dealership agreements in New Jersey and California. Ocean Suv EVs nearing 7,000 deliveries. AMC and GME also soaring early today. Filling the Dips for Larger Long-term Gains. ?
I don't think 102% Tariff on EV's from China is out of line.
They will flood the US with $18K priced compact EV sedans and small SUV's or Crossovers. That is the price point where the WORKING POOR can really start to adopt the new technology instead of buying some Cheap Korean or Mexican-American compact SUV or car at $23-24K price.
What is probably not spoken of is that China would also try to monopolize the facilities for the service and the manufacture of parts by Chinese firms too. Even here in America.
So it would be a further shift away from the traditional American Manufactured automobile and the US based Dealership and US based service centers.
China would try to own as much as possible of the after market stuff, after the sale as it were, where the real money is to be made. Cars are barely break even, except in the higher tier SUV and Trucks in the domestic market. It's the parts and service where the Dealership earns most of it's profit.
The FED "Put" has conditioned the markets to celebrate poor economic news and go down on good news. This has been the new paradigm for more than a decade.
Sorry, but I am not one to talk, but did his Grandmother buy that necktie for him?
Roger? Orange Tie with Purple, Green and Blue diagonal stripes? It's like a TV Test screen. turn it off. I am getting a head ache.
This is what happens when dinosaurs are running your nation 😂
I'd argue that inflation was caused by the people, not the pandemic itself.
Our electric companies CEO made $8 million between pay and bonuses, the average line man makes $50,000 and you wonder why middle class is failing
Balance the budget
Admit it. You all loved the stimulus during it. Many told you, you would all pay for it later... and now we are trying to push it out further... People and their psychology, isn't that economics?
Asking him what JB was telling him in the WH. We all know the answer to that!...diddly squat
But the democrap spending has continued.
That spending spree started under Chump- FACT
As a nurse and part-time real estate agent with $330k saved, I'm keen to invest in the stock market to combat low bank returns and guard against inflation. How can I build a solid portfolio?
I believe every Investor should start with ETFs for a solid foundation, then diversify across asset classes and maintain disciplined, regular investing to minimize risks and maximize growth.
A healthy portfolio has 3 things, at the bare minimum: Exposure to ETFs for increased diversification, Exposure to assets that generate cash flow like dividend stocks, Exposure to market-leading tech.
To be successful in investing, you don't have to track down the next NVDA. Simply select excellent ETFs and work with a financial advisor, as I did. Turning $100,000 into $40,000 in yearly dividends is a huge accomplishment for me now.
I'm scared about retirement as I turn 60 on my next birthday. I need to ensure I have enough money to survive on. How can I consult your advisor? My retirement account isn't performing well.
I'm hesitant to make specific recommendations because every person's circumstances are different. Independent financial advisors such as "KRISTIN AMBER LANDIS" are a good option. I have worked with her for nine years and heartily endorse her. Verify if she fits your requirements.
I worry, about the unintended consequences of a coddled population. 30 hour work weeks and 6 month maternity leave for men. Workers who demand $25/hr but can't contribute $5/hr in productivity. Too much reliance on government debt to fund unproductive grifts like California homeless situation. Just more bridges to nowhere.
Why are there homeless people
"Roger Altman" is an anagram for "Regal Matron". o/
"Entirely". No. It was also, in part, due to the trillions of additional spending pushed through, but for which we're not getting a real economic return.
The "return" is we saved millions of lives, including possibly in YOUR OWN FAMILY. The return is we avoided 30-40 percent unemployment, another housing meltdown similar to 2008, and disruptions not for a few years but for a decade or two.
Corporations hiking prices during the supply chain recovery are pushing consumers to their limits with all our savings gone, we can’t buy any more stuff
That money contributed to inflation somewhat because it increased demand when supply was constricted due to pandemic supply chains but the original root cause of inflation was the supply chain and the cash infusion probably made it a bit worse. A good percentage of the population spent that money on day 1 on necessities and not luxuries so it wasn’t as big a factor as the supply constriction. There is also a corporate greed aspect about raising prices in the face of record profits. Corporations do not “have” to raise prices, they choose to.
Maybe
In terms of tariffs, if the US introduces tariffs on Chinese goods, China will reciprocate and introduce tariffs for US goods.
And ?
oh really? You don't say?
Title is inaccurate.
he states it at the 4:50 mark
Print ...........Spend ..........Crash .......!!!
Listen to yourself man. If growth is slowing, and people are losing jobs, Revenue and Profit are to follow.. Which MEANS all time high valuations are off. Who cares about rate cuts, that means nothing! what a joke
The pandemic didn’t cause inflation. Printing TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS during the pandemic did.
As Milton Friedman has stated inflation is a monetary policy phenomenon. Period.
You know what happened and how the government acted. And you still post crazy stuff. Wake up and. Deal with it and don't blame people for your mistakes.
Let be clear you can’t do qe1 because then u have qe2 and 3. Stop printing the money
Blaming the Federal Reserve is like suing the Fire Department for Water Damage while the Arsenist aka Uniparty is still at large, Inflation was TRANSITORY but Democrats kept spending like drunken sailors (my apologies to drunken sailors), making TRANSITORY Inflation Permanent. Elementary my dear Watson
Inflation has never been transitory.
The stimulus checks came under Trump, btw.
I think becky got a haircut
I'm about to go to Cracker Barrel and spend some of the money I just made on Cracker Barrel Stock!
Ah yes. A self sustaining circular economy, just like Paddy's Pub dollars from It's always sunny in philadelphia.
😅They should 😅😅😅😅 who is They I away love the they
Yeah sure why not. How are those 6 rate cuts starting in March doing for you?? Oh wait, they don't know what they are talking about.
Inflation will be gone if and only if housing becomes affordable. Any other talking point is just rubbish.
We are paying the price of ignoring assets inflation for two decades
Only a df dem would believe what Altman believes on inflation!!!! Freeeeeeee money given directly to da people😂😂😂
S&P 7,500, please God!!!!!!!!!!
entirly by the government reaction to it more like
lol 😂
Fruit-Stripe Gum necktie.
bingo
I'm favoured $130k every 4 weeks! I now have a good house and can afford anything and also support my family
Wow that's huge, how do you make that much monthly?
I'm 37 and have been looking for ways to be successful, please how??
Yeah, since meeting expert Evelyn, I now agree that with an expert managing your portfolio, the rate of profit high, with less risk.
I will advise you stop trading on your own if you keep losing. And i don't trade on my own anymore, I always required help and assistance
She's a licensed broker here in the states.
😱Sounds familiar, I have heard her names on several occasions.. And both her success stories on wall street journey!
😂
Biden said "corporate greed" and I agree. Now he isn't going to do anything about it but yeah.
Yea, because they just invented corporate greed right when biden showed up. Come on.
BIDEN2024🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
The reaction during the pandemic was not necessary. That’s clear 20/20 hindsight. The reaction to continue pandemic handouts and spending clearly after it became evident the so-called “pandemic” didn’t need to hamstring our economy. That was pure politics. And Biden owns it.
So why was inflation worse almost everywhere else in the world? That's Biden's fault too?
From 2000 to 2024, $5.5T was spent in corporate stocks buybacks instead of being reinvested into creating new jobs. Why do you always ignore assets inflation? Are you aware that it is the main contributor to inflation in housing?
Disagree that the reaction to the pandemic in hindsight was not necessary...the reaction to the pandemic from a medical point of view and from an economical point of view seems warranted. Economically speaking, one could also argue the reason we didn't fall into a recession or even a depression is because we did print a bunch of money when we did. I'm not saying we won't fall into a recession eventually, obviously the fed is trying to slow down the economy, but if you recall, Sweden was very moderate in their covid response and they have been in recession since 2023 and we aren't. Lets be Americans first and not Republicans or Democrats first. This Liberal Bad Conservative Good or vice versa mentality is played out and unhelpful. Not everything from one side is right on everything which is why we need a balanced approach. While maybe we won't agree on this issue, let's agree to elect people that are moderate and willing to negotiate.
@@brianp1030 "medical viewpoint" That was one of the worst responses in history. When it first came on nobody could say, but by May, it wasn't happening, only on the media. Every death blamed on Covid was not accurate not even close. Personally, 250 people in my company, we stayed open all through Covid, contact with hundreds of people every day, not one person actually sick and the "positives" had no symptoms. We weren't some immune island and it was common all over.
@@GeorgeSchneider8889 Maybe. The bottomline is, the main contributor to inflation is Government spending. The Fed is applying the brakes and Biden is adding free money to a system that needs to grow on it's own. Gradually, maybe even fall back. But Government supported economies don't thrive.
What happen to free trades Biden? I guess only if it benefits the US.
Altman doesnt want the labor mkt to adjust till after the election😂😂😂. Pos
Yeah it wasn't Corporate Greed...peeing on my leg and telling me it's raining...
Liar
Fascism.. let's be clear
