My investment plan does not change with the vagaries of the stock market. I have a set amount I invest in boring old index funds twice a month no matter what the market is doing.The middle of February saw the stock market take a beating due to the Corona virus pandemic hitting the US. Some companies saw there stock prices lose 50-70% of there value in a matter of days. I was wondering if any of you have taken this as an opportunity to invest in the market while prices are down hoping to cash in when it goes back up. You know, buy low and sell high. If so what are some of the companies your looking at?
Great, great advice! Unfortunately its advice that I failed to follow and had to learn the hard way. Instead of investing slow and steady and sticking to my investment strategy I got drawn in to the lure of stock options and the potential profits and fast money that come with them. I learned real quick that I dont have the risk tolerance needed for that kind of market strategy so now im back to just boring old long term investing into solid stocks, reinvesting my dividends and watching my portfolio slowly grow with time...and im ok with that. Biggest take away, wether its your gym routine, your next cycle, or your investment strategy, take the time to do your research, make a plan and then STICK TO IT!My investment plan does not change with the vagaries of the stock market.

Market goes down? Great. That means what I am buying is on sale.
Market goes up? Ok. Fine. All the stuff I bought previously is worth more even through the shares I am buying today are more expensive.
Just keep plodding away on your plan. That is why you make a plan. You do have a plan, right? No? Then put one together.
The Invesco QQQ ETF has been fantastic for me. I put 25K into it earlier this year when it tanked to around $170 a share and it's worth $305 a share as of today.My investment plan does not change with the vagaries of the stock market.

Well, 23% growth this year in the money supply, but I get your point.

The ballooning money supply may be the key to unlocking inflation in the U.S.

Exactly why I HODL bitcoins, prepare for cost of living to go up even higher, and rich get even RICHER!Asset prices are rising largely due to monetary policies. The number of dollars, for example, has been increased by around 150% since March. Of course, the stock market is one of the primary beneficiaries of monetary expansion. I've always been terrible at making money when the stock market is rising, but I do make up for it when the bubbles finally burst.
That's M2 which includes more than dollars. Dollars, M1, have increased 150% since March. M1 is a better asset inflation predictor than M2 IMO.Well, 23% growth this year in the money supply, but I get your point.

Rather than continue an online debate, I will just comment that math is not your strong point and leave it at that.That's M2 which includes more than dollars. Dollars, M1, have increased 150% since March. M1 is a better asset inflation predictor than M2 IMO.

Not sure what you mean. If you want to correct my math, feel free. It won't hurt my feelings.Rather than continue an online debate, I will just comment that math is not your strong point and leave it at that.
it's 65% actually xDNot sure what you mean. If you want to correct my math, feel free. It won't hurt my feelings.
Thanks, I'm an idiot. My math is fine, but my grammar sucks. It would also have helped had I posted weekly averages instead of grab the fed's chart. I'll be quiet now...it's 65% actually xD
