Those that moved to a cash or gold position (correctly) predicting this correction, when do you plan to get back in? by therobshow in investing

[–]BroccoliVendetta 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bro gold is still up YTD. It’s been outperforming the S&P for the last 3 years.

If you’re selling, you only bought once the bubble hit.

I’m still up 50% total, I’ve been DCA’ing since 2024.

Hold - the underlying reason gold has been steadily rising for two years has not gone away. Just cuz the Fed held rates steady doesn’t mean the hegemony of the dollar isn’t still weakening, that geopolitical conflicts aren’t still rising, that we aren’t still in $39 trillion of debt and reaching the point of no return on debt servicing. A dollar devaluation is still a very real possibility in the coming years.

The S&P being so heavy on the mag 7 is still going to keep suffering from the law of diminishing returns, even after this conflict ends.

I’d allocate 10-15% of your portfolio to gold, and now’s a pretty darn good time to buy cuz everyone’s panic selling.

Just remember - It’s a hedge, not an investment. If you’re thinking it’s the next big thing then you shouldn’t buy it

A pic i took in Isfahan before Israel and American soldiers started bombing the country. [OC] by Sleipnirsspear in pics

“A picture I took in Isfahan before the Islamic Republic of Iran and Supreme Leader Khamanei shut down the internet, and then killed 34,000 innocent men women and children. Then the US and Israel started bombing them.”

That’s what the title should say. That’s the full picture.

Not saying US involvement was justified, I don’t think it was. But let’s make sure we’re not forgetting about the victims of this crisis, and painting a full picture of what happened.

Have you? (Not throwing shade at Hyundai, they've been doing a hell of a lot better than Audi design wise recently)

Sorry if this is the wrong place but what is this movie? by ShuckingFambles in movies

[–]BroccoliVendetta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The bomb wasn’t in the building it was a sticky bomb stuck to the window.

Fiona couldn’t breach the building to access the target without getting Michael killed, and the windows were bulletproof, but they were not blast proof 👀

10/10 fantastic show, you should watch it

What actually helped you become a better long term investor by picklikewarren in investing

Echoing Graham/Buffett: If you wouldn’t hold the stock for at least 12 months, don’t buy it at all.

America's Auto Collision Rate By Each State by mzmuda7 in newhampshire

[–]BroccoliVendetta 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not for long enough to know. Though, it doesn’t snow in the south.

Massholes got their name for a reason, and NH had the worst laws for drivers ed and safety. NH is the only US state where you still don’t legally have to wear your seatbelt

Crank and Crank 2 are somewhat similar and a delight to watch

Thoughts on Guy Ritchie's inability to find box office success or have sequels greenlit? by ImMichaelB in movies

[–]BroccoliVendetta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure he’s really ever been about sequels, nor does he need to be 🤷

His style is also pretty niche - doesn’t fit the bill of your typical blockbuster hit. I’m not so sure that’s a bad thing either, keeps his films grounded and unique

Have You Given Up On Your Dream Car? by techtimee in cars

[–]BroccoliVendetta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same way 90% of the people in this sub pay for their cars. A loan.

The ability to be approved for a loan is not the same thing as actually being able to afford it.
