Purchasing a stock may seem straightforward, but selecting the correct stock without a proven strategy can be exceedingly challenging. I've been working on expanding my $210K portfolio for a while, and my primary obstacle is the lack of clear entry and exit strategies. Any advice on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

You have a very valid point, I started investing on my own and for a long time, the market was really ripping me off. I decided to hire a CFA, even though I was skeptical at first, and I beat the market by more than 9%. I thought it was a fluke until it happened two years in a row, and so I’ve been sticking to investing via an analyst.

Great video and great point. Also, in fairness to the Fed, they maintained that projected rate cuts were data dependent all along. If anything, bond traders were ignoring the Fed’s warning about being data dependent when they were predicting 6 or 7 rate cuts in 2024. Just a small point, but sometimes I feel like the Fed catches heat when they don’t deserve it.

Inflation is talked about in such an abstract way, but it's basically just how much we're charged for goods, right?. I don't see people shopping around for the best price like they used too. it's gotten worse ever decade of my life. People will spend 50k on a kitchen remodel that increases your home value by 10k at most or spend way too much on some plastic junk. Why would prices fall when there's so many shopping addicts willing to pay whatever price.

@zoraster3749 2 месяца назад

It’s the low interest rates which allow them to borrow cheaply to throw that type of money at things (malinvestment). In the modern system, all fiat currency is effectively debt. All currency is created from borrowing and currency is destroyed when it is repaid. The more currency you have chasing goods and services the higher the price. It’s the expansion of the money supply through debt that is the actual inflation, the price increases are a symptom of the inflation. When credit is constrained and liquidity is decreased prices drop. Just look at real estate after the 2008 crash, you could buy real estate cheap because no one could borrow (i.e. you had less currency (debt) chasing that particular good).

@charlesbyrne71 2 месяца назад

Inflation is the printing of money. It's a side effect of a government that overspends. The debt to GDP ratio is just as high as it was during World War 2. The difference is that we aren't in a world war and Truman, Eisenhower and Kennedy and their respective Congresses cut spending and actually went through the formal process and passed a budget. We haven't went through a budget process since the first GH Bush in the early 90s. Instead we have "passed" continuing resolutions that increases our borrowing limit. The current administration signs executive orders that further limit our exports like oil which further reduces revenue and then gives financial aid (more borrowing) to other countries and flies in 400k people (this year and counting) from other countries into ours further burdening our government budgets, hospitals and similar. The Federal reserve can try to cut interest, but Fedzilla has to cut the growth in spending as well. Interest alone on the national debt will take up 43% of the receipts in 2024. Cutting jobs from rising interest rates will further reduce tax revenue which in turn requires further borrowing and offering attractive rates to international and domestic investors. The IMF has done a study of countries with a Debt to GDP RATIO of 131 or higher. 51 of 52 if those countries defaulted on their debt. Japan was the only one that didn't default, but they suffered from what is known as a lost decade. I'm not an economist. If you're interested in learning about inflation you may want to read/watch the Free to Choose series by economist Million Friedman. You can find it on you tube and other sites or you can get the book.

A bit of fear that I have is that some politician or office holder will replace Powell with someone that will comply with their pressure to bring back "low low" interest rates didn't something like that happen with the preceding couple of FED chairs (either the chair replaced or brow beaten into relaxing policy) before the late Paul Volcker set things a bit straighter after being appointed FED chair? I think more things that include certain government activities and "income redistributions" affect inflationary pressures than just interest rate policies

@Azel247 2 месяца назад

@jimgrant1776 2 месяца назад

Rob, I totally agree with your point as to the difficulty in forecasting interest rates. However, the difficulty is in predicting when there will be a reversal in the trend of the rates. For example, the Fed was raising rates for about 15 months, starting in early 2022. Over the last few months, many people were foresting a trend reversal, but no one can nail down exactly when. To me, this says when an investor is developing a portfolio, he should taken into account what the trend is in interest rates, not when a reverse may occur. As a case in point, starting about 40 years ago, many professional investment advisors were promoting the old 60%/40% stock/bond portfolio. Over the next few decades, that turned out to be good advice. However, a major contributor was that interest rates were in a 30-year decline, thus driving up bond values. Right now, it is reasonable to believe that some time in the next 6-18 months, the Fed will drop interest rates and get them down around 3%-4%, the long term average within a couple years. So, now is a better time for an investor to take bond positions than early 2022.

Long term asset allocation strategy informed by hisorical inflation rates leads me to have a minimum % rate and % of portfolio allocated to fixed income. At that rate and higher, rebuild the fixed income ladder. Lower, such as the extended period of near zero rates, illogical to invest in fixed income. By the time the media stated to invest, fixed income was about 1% lower. Strategy and history.

@wd3574 Месяц назад

I thought I once heard you question whether "TIPS are worth the premium". For the non-equity portion of my portfolio, I've currently have more luck with money market funds with the remaining in Vanguard BND bond fund.

@randyharris9878 2 месяца назад

I cannot seem to grasp the allure of TIPS, at least not in our current environment. It seems to me that I can make considerably more rolling 4-6 week T-bills and if inflation goes up, so will my T-bill yields (as I roll into new issues as other mature). The return on TIPS, unless I am missing something (and I freely admit that I might be), just seems dismal in comparison (5.3% vs. maybe 2.5% - judging from yields reported on secondary market TIPS) and even if you do get some extremely modest inflation protection with them, you could easily be better off from reaping the better yields on short term treasuries for now and maybe looking back at TIPS once the yield curve stabilizes. If somebody can enlighten me as to the error of my ways I would appreciate it.

@bobby350z 2 месяца назад

TIPS yield are real. T bills are nominal. If inflation is say 3.5% right now, TIPS are 2.5+3.5%. yield on tips adjusts based on inflation like I bonds. Sure for now short term treasuries have better rates due to inverted yield curve.

@randyharris9878 2 месяца назад

@@bobby350z Thanks for the reply. I was not really able to see where the rates were adjusted for inflation so I wasn't understanding that their current yield is around 6%. Given that, I get it now. They work like I thought they should, but not how I thought they did. Or something like that. Anyway, that helps...thank again.

@davidpowell3347 2 месяца назад

Since interest rates are notoriously hard to predict it might be desirable to make investment choices reasonably independent of interest rate predictions,at least for longer term money not needed for spending in the next couple of years. Inflation is still very much a problem and those saying that it is not are guilty of wishful thinking at the very least Cutting the already not so high (factoring in the present inflation rate) interest rates would probably be a disaster. There is probably a lot of politically motivated pressure put on Powell to cut interest rates but I think most of this pressure is on behalf of speculators who wish to use other people's money for less than the true worth of using that money.

Not only in investing, but almost any analysis of what the future will be is nothing more than speculation. Speculation is guessing. We wait and then react on every word that comes out from experts that don’t really know what is coming next. That’s why what happens often surprises us, but we in general, act on speculation from people who tell us what is coming that in actuality don’t know what is coming. This an argument for index investing and holding assets not invested solely in the stock market

Resetting based on COVID years to now is going to give us some goofy calculations. The Fed is using data based on the supply chain inflation and labor disruptions from 2021-2022, which seems to be a recipe for disaster come second half of 2024 since US gdp growth declinedd 3.88% in 2022 from 2021 if the Fed is holding of decreasing rates or doesn't decrease, since monetary policy effects lag 4-29months.

I understand the Boglehead idea of put a simple index portfolio together, bury it in the bottom box of your closet, and look at 20-30 years later... but when you really look at BND since data goes back to 2008, its a 2.63% annual growth rate IF you reinvested every dividend payout... way below inflation. How can one be happy with that, especially if its 40% or more of your portfolio.?. One can get 6.25% on a 5 year MYGA, 6% on agency bonds, 7% on preferreds, or just buy the 5 year tips at the auction on Thursday and get 2% over inflation..

@SpookyEng1 2 месяца назад

You couldn’t get those rates in 2008. Beginning and ending dates matter and hindsight always shows “what paid the best”. I personally think some diversification on the bond side is a good idea. I used, CDs, I-bonds, TIPs and a total bond fund. YMMV.

Well yeh more Jobs are being added. People are working 2-3 jobs to survive because of the fed. Normal rate should be 5%. Low rates inflated all assets since 2008. Fed will cut this year and they will keep cutting to near zero. They have two choices, inflate or cause a solvency crisis and the house of cards will fall.
