I bought some more TTCF today. Was waiting on the dip back to the low 20s

Been feeling like Intel is a sell but can't do it. A dividend at almost 3% and a PE ratio under 10. The stock is undervalued but it probably isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

last i checked they are losing grounds, can't innovate at pace they are supposed to, too much baggage, and just alot of folks not having the confidence in them.

and dudes like chicken genius kept talking about how dividend investing is dead.

so i thought about picking up cheap share when it dipped below $50 back when they announced the delay of the chip.

and i just checked the price and it's still below $50.


so for me i would avoid a company like this. there are better stocks to buy.

RTX is holding up better than BA at least. RTX is down 5% this month. BA is down like 9%. RTX has a pretty strong resistance in that mid 70s level. I wanna see this get close to $100 next year.

s'all relative. i bought BA around 105 , so even being down, I'm up 100%. RTX my cost basis is avg ~60 (I bought my first lot around 67, then a few lots from 56-59, then 12 @ 74 when it looked like we were on an upward trajectory), seeing it basically bounce back and forth from 60-70 all year has been a disappointing return, but I'm also long on this so i'm not too concerned

I like the RSP ETF. Its the equally weighted version of SPY, so it's not biased towards the "hot" sectors like the regular SPY.

You also mentioned gold. You can buy GLD on paper.

what's the point of an equally weighted index - i get it hedge against a crash, but i'd assume you're also leaving a lot of growth on the table

My cost basis is still $52 so I'll probably never sell out lol

A lot of dip buying today. My accounts were getting hammered earlier lol. Not actually down too much now

You are, but you have to balance growth vs risk

I have 10% of my portfolio in index funds. It doesn't weigh my portfolio down when looking through the lens of my portfolio vs market returns.

It was my own answer to the "problem" that poster I was replying to had:
I noticed that most of my investments were to "connected" to each other, since most I what I own is dominated by tech. This way, if some other sector pops up I can still benefit from it even if tech is dropping.

I too have 10-20% in index funds at any given time, but choose market weighted ETF's. but maybe i'll look into the pros/cons more

Buffett swears by index funds...but he's a super long-term thinker and investor

A perfectly balanced portfolio should have them

Because Buffett knows the average investor is likely to underperform indexes. Many people in here are smarter than the average investor though.
