80% equities 20% cash. I plan to take advantage of the s&p 500 as leading indicators predict above 10% rise by this year, my only issue is how to properly allocate a large stock/bond portfolio for substantial gains at minimum risk.

Keeping some gold is usually a wise decision. You would be better off keeping away from equities for a bit or, even better, seeking advice from an expert given the current market conditions and everything that is at risk with the current economy.

I agree, having a brokerage advisor for investing is genius! Amidst the financial crisis in 2008, I was really having investing nightmare prior touching base with a advisor. In a nutshell, i've accrued over $2m with the help of my advisor from an initial $350k investment.

I hope that's not the case you should cost average into index funds for the long term at best if you're struggling with personal investing or sometimes it's even better to just hire a mutual fund manager. There's no shame over 90% of people people will underperform the index over the longer term the sp500 over a 20 year period has never lost a gain. Patience and steadiness is better than most KZfaqrs stock recommendation.

Great advice here. Keep it simple, buy things you understand, take some risk but don’t try to shoot the lights out. Diversification is KEY! I use a CFA and it's a great hands off way to approach it, I conservatively follow *Lina Diniekiene's* recommendations and market entry and exit points, and tbh this makes it possible for me. Started in '22 but with a lot of financial strength and in-depth research I did hit that coveted 100K and recently the 1m mark :)

Haha! I feel great about 'the market' as long as the companies (or ETFs) we invest in have strong earning trends. Over many decades, the prices will follow net earnings within about 0.5%. Nobody, can explain all the short-term noise so as an investor you should be galvanized to tune out the static. Build a nice system based on your risk tolerance and goals, stay the course and win this simple game in the long run.

@daveschmarder-1950 3 ай бұрын

This sounds familiar to some of the buffered ETFs that came out a couple years ago. That is a capped upside and a buffered downside for a period of time. My question is with one of those, someone could buy when the period starts. Then if the ETF reaches its top before buffering, I thought it would then be smart to sell then and wait for the next ETF to come along. If I thought of this, it has to be too simple, and I am missing something. I've never owned this kind of investment and I don't think I would ever do it. The ER on these are also 0.69%.

@wealthadventures 3 ай бұрын

As the index climbs, the return for anyone buying the ETF reduces and downside develops. Problem is you need to find a buyer for a product with a lower return and downside. Not so attractive!

I think they have the hedge too close to the money. I like to sell the calls that pays for the hedge at a rate of about 3 to 1 in credit. (So if it costs me $100 for the hedge I get paid $300 for the short call). That way you can aggressively lower the cost of entry. You mentioned it Dave. Its the risk/reward ratio. You should do it 3 to 1 in my opinion.

Buffer ETF’s are also available like BMAY BJUN etc that protect the first 9%down and gives you first 17% up. Structured like Fixed Index Annuities but NO long term commitments and the cap doesn’t change arbitrary to whims of the insurance company. In a flat market you lose the.69% fee plus the 1.29% dividend you would have received in spy. This would be a place to put some of your bond portfolio money.

How much does the $SPY need to rise for you to achieve your full 9%+ capped return? If $SPY was particularly bullish over the year, could you achieve the capped return more quickly and not need to wait the full year? The ETF started at 25 dollars. Is it guaranteed to never go below 25? Is that how the protection works?

@wealthadventures 3 ай бұрын

SPY should drive the price and 25 should be the floor (or close). You may get close to the 9% return early but it would be hard to sell for a 9% gain until the options get to expiry.

@TheComedyChannel-oo5lk 3 ай бұрын

Thank you. I have a question about the downside risk, if the stock drops by (say) 3% to 510 in your example, before the end of the year, would the price drop by 3%? In other words, do I need to keep it for a year to have the downside protection? Or it NEVER falls below the purchase price within the year and can only go up or stay the same throughout the year? I hope you see what I mean. Thank you very much!

@wealthadventures 3 ай бұрын

It should stay between 0% and about 9.5% throughout the year. If it drops down towards 510 at expiration, you will have a small return overall since it is above 502... and near expiration it should be quite close to real price action if it is still between the 2 strikes of 502 and 552. Does that answer your question?
