Feel like I should buy some Google and Amazon today and sell it when we have a bear market rally

Crazy volatility. Nasdaq down 5%, up 3%, now it's about even

Probably because people are doing what you're suggesting - buying this dip and causing temporary buoyancy (at least that's my guess).

It's all relatively meaningless to me - my stock holdings are in retirement funds that I'm 25 years away from even considering cashing out - most of it's in index funds without any reliance on individual stocks.

That said, I do think the system is fucked up and also hate that we're governed by elites who are completely out of touch with consensus reality experienced by you and I.

Here's a share link to a recent article discussing this in The Atlantic: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/a...opy-link&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=share

So at least it's getting some acknowledgement even if they will continue to let us eat cake with their bread and circuses

I'd be willing to bet that by the time we get to retirement in 25-30 years, the system won't even be in place anymore. There's just no way that's happening.
 
Long term investment is the best. There will always be growth. Even at small inclines.

I always invest long term funds mutual and interest gains towards retirement savings most of the time.

Gold Silver & Asssets hell yes.

Bye. have a nice day. No puns... 🌻

That copy of the Declaration of Independence went
up for auction again in 2000 and sold at that
time for $7.4 million. The Sotheby Auction House implied
that it was even more valuable because it was only
one of seven of the original 25 copies that was unbacked
and required no restoration. It was in pristine condition. I
t is thought that the copy was folded while the ink was still fresh,
so it may very well have been put into that envelope immediately
after it was printed in Philadelphia in July of 1776.


There are many different ways to make money and invest.
The arts and in properties. Prosperities and growths.

^duely noted. I don't know shite but I worry there is kinda nothing backing the US dollar (?) I have watched this thread long enough to tip my hat thank you and head in a new direction ( I know we aren't on a gold standard, I do not understand the standard we are on really; "Crypto reserve" sounds crazy af (but again I don't understand alot here other than things are looking bad in general).

Nixon right?

Yea that is when I lost grasp of the market roughly. *meaning I haven't understood it in my lifetime --- but I can understand the gold standard. (Some confirmation bias going on here forsure). --- Id a took the 3.85% in a day though damn. I assume that has something to do with the nasdaq boom; obviously rather have 9 ---*edit* did a google to not be ignorant af and I DO NOT TRUST the 2 things they list as backing the dollar. (Excuse me being a rube, would crypto not be in direct contradiction to backing the US dollar *ehem* therefor (?) have a negative coorelation to the US dollar. (dollar down = crypto up? that was for me not you guys I should save the 5 dollar words)

(also ions gave the thumbs up while I was editing -- how much of this is thumbs up to him I do not know -- just for clarity) noones losin money based on my lack of understanding lol.
