And I feel like thatβs a good setup for a false quote but canβt think of anything clever. Could be anything really.

Just hit 20.9% since 01/17. Wish I could go back further since I started investing, but rolled it all into Vanguard in '17

BTW % returns in a lot of cases are meaningless as well. I certainly dont trade with 500k like I did when I had 5k. For example, option traders usually only post % because they only trade with a couple hundred at a time at most because the majority of option trades are low probability when you are buying premium. Trading with more money would easily blow up their account in a month.
Regardless, if someone is actively trading and working on a real strategy instead of yolo picks, and making a single dollar, then congratulations to them because it isnt easy. Ill bet 90% of the people here will not be here next year simply because theyre just winging it or following someone elses picks.

Yeah seems like people are waiting to see how long this lasts and maybe to see what companies do when Q2 reports hit, strong dividends + buybacks should bump up prices. Valuations for most companies are still where they should be trading if oil is at $50ish, not almost $80

RIP DIDI. China doesn't play
It's funny how the stock market works sometimes because of one bad news and the stock goes down by a lot

Here is all my stocks. Bought my first stocks Dec 2018, $3k into SWTSX an index fund. Bought right before the Dec. crash, derp. Anyways I met with a financial advisor last week and they created a plan for me. I have $90k in a savings account and $20k in checkings. I know I know. They recommended me moving 90% over into some funds. I also have an IRA with about 12k in it. I keep telling myself the next dip I'll add more money. I don't know why it's so hard for me to move large sums into my trading accounts. I keep kicking myself for not putting more in last spring during the covid crash.
