speaking of wildfires, I wonder how fucked CA will be when the flames start sweltering in a few months while dealing with mass infections in LA and SF

What are your investment goals? How "high maintenance" do you want the portfolio to be? What time frame?
Hunter Harris
do you think she gives good head bros?

Perhaps, it's because during normal times weekdays you have traders at smg and weekend kids, no it's the opposite. Lock down leftists have more time during week days, including lciguy, hardcore left wing socialist who is blinded by his faith. He, like many others is willing to sack economy for his own good. I dont personally even vote, i dont have political view, just economic view.
I learnt a lot from the nhentai links so far. Quite educational.

I'm 23 and plan on keeping the portfolio for a long lifetime and hope to keep growing it from 4.3k to more than double through dividends and value plays. Time frame is my life but I might want some cash on the side soon because I might want to go travel Europe and find myself a wife when all of their beta males die off from coronavirus or invasion.
Also I am not seeking a high maintenance portfolio for the most part, I am inept at calls and puts.

Asking again for more opinions: Selective airlines, oil, and steel/manufacturing/etc portfolio an attractive idea for a mid-long term defensive strategy? Any other bargain markets attractive?

I don't think that there will be tariffs on oil if you looked at the people who attended the meeting, there was only one pro shale representative.

I am. Working from home as a software engineer is super comfy and I live in a rural area. I just get groceries delivered via Amazon and Instacart so my risk of infection and have a few months stash of shelf stable food, a Mossburg 500 + ammo and supplies if shit starts getting crazy in my area (which is unlikely to happen).

Growth stocks or value stocks?
Robert Watson
That spread seems fine. As far as when to do it, volatility is still so crazy high that it's difficult to know when and where to punch in. Go for DCA (dollar cost averaging) by purchasing shares in smaller bunches in the firms you decide to go with but over time. Say, once a month, buy 10 shares of X for 5 months. Then if you also pick across a wide array of industries that will average risk over the market in addition to time. Airlines and oil look like steals but its going to take a while for them to recover. Utilities will likely recover almost instantaneously (oil being a dumpster fire exception). >steel/manufacturing/etc Buy into that when progress is made on an infrastructure program. It seems like its being delayed to post corona-4 stim bill. Also with that, weight towards american firms. National bills like that always go for American made clauses.
Lucas Martin
I would honestly just put half of it in some value companies like MA, V, NVDA, AMZN, BRK or so And the rest in some dividend ETF. Whatever you want here really. From Aristocrats to QYLD you have many options.
Each time you have a 1k$ saved up invest half in a divvy ETF and half in a new good company. Maybe some AAPL here or some LMT. Whatever you want.
That would be my advice for a hands off, autopilot approach. Nah. The weekend is just much more relaxed.

Buy both. VTI/VTSAX
Wyatt Garcia
Do we think that those stocks have more to collapse?
Justin Wright
I was thinking about jumping into oil because of the big names that are going to be around and they are only suffering from both corona and lack of production. When that ends I'd imagine they would rise quickly.
>Do you guys think that the oil war is over yet?
Ryder Evans
Shouldn't it be the opposite? Buy a tech or a general SP500 ETF and buy stocks of high dividend companies instead of buying the individual stock of value companies en buying dividend ETFs?
With your approach hed be less diversified in the stock part and yield less dividend.
Brandon Morgan
hopefully soon.. this shit sucks.. I like going out and about.. i haven't been able to really play pool which is like one of my main stress relievers and one of the guys I know with a good pool table just died.. everyone i know that has a table has a shit table...
But I don't think the testing everyone and then having the ones that come out positive stay home would really work because they have most likely touched surfaces while they were out and about before testing positive.
or even earthquakes..
Ethan Brooks

Saudi and Russia cancelled open meeting Monday for all those in the oil game. Huge news.

Why don't you just take some of your gains from LCI and buy your own pool table?
Joseph Rodriguez
>what channels do you guys watch for next week's playbook? 4channel seems to work out well
Landon Barnes
I know its not possible for many people but I hope this experience teaches people to have several months savings as a cushion against disasters. Oil has both decreased demand from the supply AND a price war between Saudi Arabia, Russia, and US shale. So it is a mix of both economics and politics which makes any good outcome dependent on both. It is by far the riskiest venture out there so you better do a lot of homework on it. And you should also expect any money in on oil to be lost. It really is close to gambling at this point. Yes, it will go up at some point. But there are going to be firms that just don't survive this entirely and the recovery may be years out from previous prices.
Tyler Flores
when do you think the lockdown in the US will be over by? i've been hearing rumors that my boss is gonna want me back by May but that just seems unreal considering all i've heard about the coronavirus from here and other financial news sources. idk how we're supposed to leave lockdown when we still don't have a vaccine or at least a strong antiviral treatment for it. i see it as indefinite lockdown until we get one of those things, or at least something along those lines (a cure or at least a powerful treatment).
MINIMUM i figure maybe if we produce a fuckload of tests that we can distribute to literally every American, *maybe* we can just quarantine the ones who test positive and the rest go back to work. but as we've seen by so many people still going to parks and beaches and spring break and other shit, you get a few assholes who go outside even when sick and spread it and the whole thing starts again, it would rely on trusting 330 million people and fuck that shit
Evan Anderson
I've made 50% gains last week but I'm going cash now until this shit dies down, see ya in the summer Yas Forums
i don't even expect the "lockdown" in germany to end for another month, it will likely take quite a bit longer in the us

>This is what I'm expecting, but I'm trying to snipe some bargains like MT too. I am also expecting to make movements on this but I really would wait for actual news. It seems like ages ago but one of Trump's first causes was an infrastructure program (that wasn't just his wall).
Dylan Flores
Do you trust the science behind ETFs? Vanguard is just a normal company, right? No government responsibility or anything?
How the fuck do I know what's going on in 40 years? What finance will look like? How am I supposed to make a bet on these Jews to deliver when I'm in retirement?
And just how much did you lose in the weeks prior to that week of "50% gains?" ;^)
Chase Cooper
Maybe. I think so at least. If OP looks for a life long investment and just has 4k at hand right now I think it does not matter too much though. He didnt buy the top of the bubble in February. Thats already good enough >Buy a tech or a general SP500 ETF I generally do not like this approach because I prefer to buy value and growth stocks by myself desu. I just want MSFT, BRK and AMZN, not KHC and Sears mixed into that package. But if someone does know absolutely nothing about the stock market you are right of course.
>buy stocks of high dividend companies Thats more dangerous if you have no idea. Many companies have high dividends because they have nothing else to prop up their stock price. For a complete beginner it is more advisable to pick an ETF here to avoid stepping in a divvy trap company.
At least thats my opinion.
>With your approach hed be less diversified in the stock part These big companies are already so diversified that you pretty much buy three whole industries if you buy AMZN. You buy online delivery, cloud computing, AI, consumer electronics, etc. And BRK is practically an ETF in itself. Just better.
Just my two Cents. I do not think it matters too much desu.
they're tied to underlying assets so as long as the assets are fine you should be fine. I think it's more likely than the market will implode and your assets will be worthless than vanguard shuttering their doors but maybe my statement is baseless.
>Dax reaches 2008 levels >Go all in with 100x leverage >Make fuck you money as it goes back to 13k >Never work again ever Tell me why this wouldnt work
Joseph Parker
Those kinds of ETFs minimize risk in so many different kinds of ways that you effectively are moved primarily by how the entire market it moving anyway. It's why the returns are so small compared to options or day trading. You get to just ride the overall market which, because of inflation, is typically always going to increase over time anyway. I'd argue there are better ways to "ride the bull" but near-zero maintenance ETFs like Vanguard are pretty good, maybe not perfect, for retirement accounts.

Here's your pro-tip: If ur betting on oil war continuing you risk it and buy shippers, if not buy oil, maybe stick to bigger players for safety, shale if ur risky as shit. Choose ur side and run with it. That's it. If you choose right you'll make a ton. I'm betting on an oil glut so I'm in shippers. Many of us have discussed this here. I bought calls last week on multiple names. Am I right, duno. I risked over $10k on my bet tho.

>divvy ETF and half in a new good company No. Not now. We don’t know how many companies are going to cut their divvies or go bankrupt.
Invest in companies that will make it through this. Companies with lots of cash and low debt.
MSFT and JNJ are at the top of that list. AAPL and BRKB are pretty high up there. LMT, KO, PEP as well.
NVDA is more of a “gamble” but I bought last week because the risk:reward is still promising, and it’s not like they’ll go bankrupt. COST as well I think will be a winner when all is said and done.
Exactly why I don’t want etfs right now. But I do like vanguards dividend growth fund, and I am still holding some SPLV and lmao2shares of SCHX.

Leo Torres
Tbh I'm debating going all on SCO. Even if the OPEC meeting goes well and drops 10 million barrels, oil won't go to 30$ a barrel. Shorting oil looks like it's free money to me. I just want to buy at the peak hype before the crash to 20-10 a barrel
Oliver Thomas
Defense spending isn't going going to spike unless tensions start to rise, and we're licking our wounds too much at the moment to start waving sticks. Your timing is completely off-base. Fundamental analysis masquerading as clairvoyance.

Or it could be due to blacks being more obese than average.
I live in a suburban white area, yesterday at walmart it was half black after not seeing a single non-white there for three years. I'm guessing all the inner city stores have been raped by hoarding so now they're coming to take all our shit. P-payback, I guess?

I compared accumulating and distributing sp500 and they dropped in value equally during this crisis Does this mean accumulating ETFs suck? With distribution you would have had dividends, and now if you have accumulation you're left with the same crash but no dividends.
Michael Walker
Exactly, any cut in production will add a bump to price, but in the end it don't matter. Too much supply. And even if price stays here, don't matter either, still pumping too much. Oil will need to be stored, and storage is running out. The only way our small players survive is if they continue to pump, adding to glut.

>No. Not now. Thats my opinion as well. But OP is just investing 4k and wants to stay long term without caring too much. I think its fine to tell him to buy in any time really. >But I do like vanguards dividend growth fund I already lamented it it in the last thread, but even hodling the dumbest divvy ETFs would make most people really rich over time. And people hodl their money in savings accounts instead. Kind of depressing isnt it?
