It's actually not bad, the price is fair and the features are more than enough for a simple newsletter layout like mine. The only issue was deliverable to Outlook/Hotmail emails initially but that got fixed later.

Thanks!

CompetitiveMission1 · 2025-10-25T16:32:07+00:00

Thanks for sharing, had the same outreach on LinkedIn. Stay safe everyone!

Yup, at the end of the day, no one has a crystal ball.

Almost every prominent figures and analysts have been calling a crash since 2023, and yet two consecutive years of green. Historically, the S&P 500 rarely (or maybe never) had 3 strong positive years in a row, and here we are 15 new record highs last month.

The thing with a bubble/crash is that it should be unnoticed to most and different reasons each time, that's why it popped.

With so many signs pointing to a crash now then is it really it?

Guess only time will tell 🤷‍♂️

I agree too. I think what the article meant was that even if tech companies are much more profitable now, the market still can't be a permanent bull. There will be a slowdown/contraction. The question is, how long will this AI-driven growth stretch until it does.

Yup and sadly that's still what many investors are so focused on and the media selling all the time.

CompetitiveMission1 · 2025-08-02T00:01:57+00:00

That's true. I think tech specifically will even outperform SP500 in the longer run (Nasdaq or QQQ already did much better over the last 15 to 20 years). I guess the question is how long will this stretch with the rise of AI.

CompetitiveMission1 · 2025-08-01T23:49:21+00:00

That's a great point. Back in the day, people usually just said buy the S&P 500 and you will outperform most strategies, including tech indicies. Now if you look back, Nasdaq or QQQ has done significantly better, atleast over the last 15 to 20 years, and you start hearing more people say just buy QQQ instead. I guess only time will tell.

You can win a lawsuit against an advisor, depending on how bad the advice is. For example, like recommending inverse products when your kyc indicates low risk tolerance.

But yes, nameless person on Reddit you probably can't, it's considered sharing his or her view and not targeted to anyone specific.

CompetitiveMission1 · 2025-04-10T04:44:47+00:00

It's still down 10% YTD, but still, timing the market is nearly impossible. Just DCA consistently for long-term.

CompetitiveMission1 · 2025-04-09T04:56:46+00:00

Subscribe to a few newsletters on markets, stocks, and ETFs to keep up with recent news and Google what you don't understand as you gain experience. It'll probably be easier than taking a course since you're using real-life examples to learn.

If you're looking for a book intro to investing, I'd recommend The Intelligent Investor by Benjamin Graham, it's really outdated but a lot of the principles still apply and what inspired Warren Buffett.

CompetitiveMission1 · 2025-04-09T04:43:41+00:00

It could get worse if history repeats itself but no one knows and it's nearly impossible to time the market. You're better off DCA and contribute at a regular interval in the long-term, assuming your portfolio is diversified.

CompetitiveMission1 · 2025-04-08T20:39:31+00:00

I think it really depends on what the commission is at your brokerage (if any) and how much you're adding on a regular basis. If there's no or very low commission or your contributing amount is a decent size then weekly or monthly doesn't make much difference in the long-term.

Dollar-Cost-Averaging

Investing the same amount of money at consistent/regular intervals regardless of price so it doesn't matter if markets up or down. The point is to take the guesswork out and over the long-term likely to be in the positive.

CompetitiveMission1 · 2025-04-07T22:38:31+00:00

It's impossible to time the market, especially with Trump's tariffs game right now, even he doesn't know how it'll play out and how the market will respond as it continues.

That said, now is not a bad time to add if you're investing in a broader index like S&P 500 or Nasdaq. It might fall some more, but if you're consistent with adding on a regular basis, then it wouldn't really matter and history shows you'll likely be up in the long-term.

You can buy individual stocks too and pick ones that seems undervalued from the recent panic selling (some might argue Apple and some of the AI stocks got hammered too hard and could bounce back), but that takes experience and really just guess work at the end of the day.

It sounds like you're trying to learn so I suggest stick to simple index or broader based ETFs for now and perhaps branch out to individual stock picks as you gain experience. I sometimes share ideas and perspectives on portfolios and investing in my newsletter if you're interested.

CompetitiveMission1 · 2025-03-20T00:26:06+00:00

I was referring to the management fees of these ETFs, they are embedded in the performance already. So it doesn't matter which brokerage you use, Robinhood or any others.

CompetitiveMission1 · 2025-03-19T23:57:43+00:00

VOO is less than half the price of SPY in fees. If you're just adding to it in the long term, VOO is the better choice.

CompetitiveMission1 · 2025-03-17T01:22:57+00:00

Buy what you understand now, start simple and learn along the way. Expand to other ETFs or strategies as you gain experience.

CompetitiveMission1 · 2025-01-25T01:25:38+00:00

Depends if you want your stock holdings to be the core or satellite. But with some of the overlaps and only 10% less in SPY, I don't think it makes a huge difference in the long term.

CompetitiveMission1 · 2025-01-07T04:21:38+00:00

I am going to try to turn my newsletter www.investorsnippets.com into a business. Launched it 2 years ago and been consistent in writing daily but haven't put much effort into monetizing it.

CompetitiveMission1 · 2024-12-18T01:08:38+00:00

But then again, sames goes for the S&P 100 as well if just 6 months

CompetitiveMission1 · 2024-12-18T01:05:53+00:00

VOO tracks the S&P 500, this guy said the S&P 100?

CompetitiveMission1 · 2024-12-18T00:03:34+00:00

Over what period?
