there gotta be a recession next year breh. no way the market can keep this up. i'm up like 40% and nervous as hell. i mean buffett holding on 125billion cash? something gotta happen soon.

i'm low on cash only 10%. i gotta up it to about 30%. gotta start selling some shares.
I've paused on investing. I have to build back up some cash reserves. I do put like $100-$150 in my Fidelity account on payday but I don't buy anything with it just let it add up and sit in my core account. I wish I would have bought more Apple. I bought some at the last $170 dip on a China scare and it shot up almost $100 since then. Same with Disney after the Fox merger when it fell.
Why are you nervous?
Because these astronomical portfolios are gonna take a huge hit. No matter what it doesn't feel good to watch your net worth fall.

then sell off and hold until you feel comfortable buying again...or ride the dip. pretty much your only two options :yeshrug:

I also own VOO the Vanguard S&P500 ETF and Uber. I don’t own a lot of VOO but I buy $100 of it every week minimum. I forgot I own like $100 of a share of Google. I toss whatever spare change I have left at it from my SoFi account so I don’t just have money sitting. They do partial shares of all the companies I own except UTX and MCD.

As you can see I own a lot of Dow stocks.
How often you contribute to these? Per month?

I used to buy something every pay period on something but I had to stop after buying a car 2 months ago. I need to replenish my down payment I made.

I now add a minor amount to by buying power every check. Usually under $200 but I haven't bought any stocks in a bit. I'll just let the buying power continue to slowly build back up as I accumulate money in my savings and checking accounts.

When Tesla went into the $190s I wanted to buy but I had sold it less than a month before so I couldn't buy it.
Breh I'm just sitting here shaking my head, I had 10 racks just sitting in cash in the IRA that I was like "I'm gonna keep this here because I don't trust this market and I don't know what might present itself when the time is right"

We're talking 130% gain here man...I'm SICK :snoop:

My fear failed me twice this year (should have got in on Fitbit when it was low because I knew Google was sniffing around...) but I'm gonna stop bytching before I do something stupid and REALLY regret it :wow:
