The fed needs to be abolished.
It helped make the Great Depression Great and it has had a hand in our current situation where we have a financial sector that has been mainlining free money for most of Barry’s term and the start of Trump’s. And like kicking any drug habit, this one will have withdrawal symptoms.

You have proven over the years to be one of the dumbest motherfuckers to ever mash submit on this board. Whatever you propose, we should do the opposite.

I suspect there will be a bit more correction as the market comes to terms with the fact that we are returning to normal interest rates.
I do as well, but even with that it will still be north of 15K points higher than when I first got in. Waiting for Sotball to explain to me how that is a bad thing.

The U.S. markets are a huge bubble.
Quite obviously.
If you've made money, get out and count your winnings.
Don't be a dummy.

Same fucking thing you said about a week ago when the market dropped 800. The it came back 500. Then 200.
Since you want everybody to get out..what do think we should go with the money ?? Taking a chance on your reply here since I believe Lefty warned us about taking financial advice from a troll like yourself, but I am really curious where we should go with our investments.. I will take your answer on the air please...

Your take would make sense if we were of the understanding that things are going to basically float along in a "normal" way.
Not gonna happen.
It is a massive bubble and it will -----> *POP*.
No doubt.
Sure, hold your positions.
Add to them.
No skin off my nose.

He is worse than that. Not even a 90 year old would short 30%. What a fucking moron.

The fact he thinks 70% cash is a good place to be tells us everything we need to know. But one further question, should that cash be in the bank or under the mattress?

It is always a nice idea to keep some cash on hand, isn't it?
The bulk of your cash in the bank.
If there is a doomsday scenario where folks cannot get their money out of banks, then issues would be so severe that even holding a large amount of money is probably not going to help you that much.
In the next downturn (which has likely already started), cash will be king.
If you are putting new money into U.S. equities now, after this insane run-up (and still near all-time highs), you are a major fool.
But you do whatever you think.
A lot of really smart people here.
Wow.
lol

As of today, the Dow and the S&P 500 have given back all of their gains for the year.

Foreign markets are way ahead of the U.S. markets.
They have been hammered for many weeks now -- and have suffered big losses.
Reality is setting in for U.S. investors.
Some are slow to learn.
Oh well.
"Stupid is supposed to hurt," a troll once said.
70% cash

There ya go.

So I guess real estate is not an option ?

We've been talking about the stock market, so I answered your question in that context.
Real estate is a totally different animal.
I would not necessarily advise against putting some money into property, depending on a whole host of factors.
U.S. markets are bouncing UP today.
Not surprising, given the beating they took yesterday (and over the last couple of weeks).
