@chineebai thoughts on IVW as a long term hold for a child's custodial account?
just my opinion but it's a growth fund so that's more risky than a total market fund, depends on your time frame and outlook. Like if your time frame is like 18+ years then yeah probably a safe bet since its so long, but if it is say 1 year, obviously more volatile. A lot of people do like a growth fund, total market fund, and maybe even an international fund to spread risk.

this is how close GameStop was to breaking everything. The problem still likely exists with more shares short, then exist.
