AWW$HEEET Posted August 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 Not that I could afford AAPL, but I can't help but think that 75% of investors should have already accounted for him leaving. Then again, maybe not, looks to be down 5% in aftermarket trading. Yeah, it may have already been priced in. I wouldn't doubt that at all. I suspect they'll have a rocky day tomorrow then rebound.

AWW$HEEET Posted August 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 How did you gold bugs fair today? full disclosure: I didn't read the last couple pages Not gonna lie, I have considered gold. Even if its a bubble right now, it will always be of value. I think everyone should own at least some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think everyone should own at least some. I agree. I have no problem with 5% When people start saying shit like "Gold is king" "Gold is safe" blah blah blah, all I can thing about, is that same conversation 7 years ago... "Real estate is king" "real estate is safe" blah blah blah Too much of anything is bad. Without being diversified and properly hedged, NOTHING is safe. Sadly enough that goes for CDs and treasuries too....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly enough that goes for CDs and treasuries too....... I'm young and should be taking bigger risks, but the past few yrs on the mkt have me so jaded, I am seeking dividends, blue chips, precious metals, bond funds, sacrificing opportunity cost by dumping more into my 401k cause I can't make money in the market otherwise, etc. When billion dollar hedge funds can't break even, who the hell am I to try to beat the market?

If you believe in the system, just dump as much money in systematically as you can into all that stuff you just said. MOST people that are retired now with millions from investing didn't get that way from being smart. They got that way from being systematic. Time makes money in the market. When you are young (myself included) long term IRA money loves dips in the markets with dividend paying stocks. The dividends (assuming you reinvest) just buy you more shares that compound your gains down the road. Some people don't have the stomach for the market. Truth be told, a low PE market in your prime earning years is a gold mine for people with the sack to keep buying in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truth I got my wife scared with all the money I'm dumping into the market, but unless a total collapse of society as we know it occurs I'm set to do well down the road. In the mean time I swing/day trade and pull off little gains here and there to buy toys with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
