Walt Longmire Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 I just added some funds to my investor account. I hope the timing is close to right. What say you knowledgeable finance guys and gals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Historian Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 I haven't moved anything and just kept adding. At some point i have the same amount of paper. It may not be worth as much. But the system will come back. So the way i see it...if you're in for another 15 or 20 years....let it ride...and add more. It can only go back up. Buy low sell high. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willie-pete Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 I use tight trailing stops in most of my trades, so I got stopped out when the market started to get squirrelly back in January. I am all in now; been adding things back in for the past few weeks. If you believe in the US for the long term, you are GTG. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silentpoet Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 I wish I was at that point in my financial journey. I would be buying all I could. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The recovery is going to be a blast. If we don't recover nothing will matter anyway. I'm thinking that the day before I die, all my wishes will come to physical fruition. The kids can do their own investments. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is almost impossible to hit the exact low for buying or the exact high for selling. If cash flow is not an issue - don’t play with next month’s rent money - buying on the way down after a major dip or selling on the way up after a major jump can be rewarding. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all about risk management. But like i tell everyone. Start saving young...and start saving as much as you can. And then go from there.

janice6 Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 If nothing else, you can always bet on Americans making money. No matter what happens, stick around because shortly it will have a big payoff. Capitalism! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now solder is over 10 Dollars a pound. Hang in there, it might have a future! With enough Lead you can get all the Gold you want.

tadbart Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 I either pick a lot of stinkers, or I'm a black cloud. If you guys wanna short a specific stock, lemme know, and I'll buy it up. It'll tank. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
