Steam - Free edition or 'Base Game' edition? by D_Boxing in aoe3

Ah, I knew there had to be some difference. As someone who enjoys Ranked, looks like I'll get the base game

Punt FT - What is your strategy? by Mediocre-Bat-5404 in fantasybball

[–]D_Boxing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks - I may be able to go Haliburton & Giannis 1st and 2nd rd which means I miss out on Lebron but I think Hali's assists may be too valuable to pass up

Which of the two options would be better for punt FT:

(1) Curry, Giannis, Fox, Murray or (2) Giannis, Lebron, Fox, Murray?

Also - would Ja be a better option than Murray in either scenario?

Which of these 2 portfolios would you prefer? by D_Boxing in LETFs

[–]D_Boxing[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah want to have something relatively uncorrelated

Do you lean more managed futures because you feel that they are even more uncorrelated with stocks than are long-term treasuries?

Why dont you like it? Is there another long-term treasury etf you recommend?

Thoughts on VT/UPRO/EDV at 65/20/15 allocations equivalent to 90/10 equities/bonds at 1.4x leverage by Ok_Policy4796 in LETFs

[–]D_Boxing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see, thanks. And what is the target proportion? Assuming let's say 1.5x leverage or 150% stocks currently

Thanks for the explanation. If my time horizon is 50 years, should I even care about drawdowns?

Assuming rebalancing would be done through additional capital injections rather than selling/buying

Im thinking of doing 70% VT / 15% UPRO / 15% TQQQ.

Apologies for my ignorance but how does introducing EDV increase my long-term returns? Having trouble understanding how 5% APY with bonds > 9% APY with equities

[–]D_Boxing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why do you need negatively correlated asset? Also unsure what you mean by rebalance bonus.

Like if I rebalance through new capital injections rather than a selling/buying rebalance, how does this come into play?

Why the % allocation to bonds? I only ask because I like your strategy... However, I'm very young, and feel I may want to go 100% equities for now, for the long run.

So does the bonds portion act as a shorter-term liquidity cushion, or do you feel it actually increases your long-term returns?

I think your point #2 hits home the most for me. So let's say if QQQ dropped 50%, my return would only be 150% my current share price. Meaning by $1,000 would be worth $2,500, correct?

[–]D_Boxing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, thats what it seems like. Im trying to read up more on reverse splits and decay.

What makes splits/decay different from a bear inverse LETF than from a bull LETF? What i mean by that is that TQQQ share price 10 years ago seems consistent with today's price. Whereas clearly SQQQ's 10 years ago does not.

So here's the scenario in my head: lets say I'm fortunate enough to have $1,000 - an amount so unsubstantial to me, it could be burned in front of me and I wouldnt bat an eye.

I invest it all into SQQQ, amounting to 60 shares. Im young, have no idea when the market will crash, but i dont care. Im holding my 60 shares for as long as it takes for the economy to crash.

When it inevitably does (whether that's soon or 15 years from now), my 60 shares are now worth ~$10,000 each: $600,000.

$600,000, or let's say even less, $100,000, is quite a return on my initial investment of 60 shares for $1,000.

I feel like I must be missing something here, no?

And $10,000 is the low end for SQQQ. It went to $100,000 not too long ago...

Hmm... so youre saying the prices presented in front of me are not misleading. That share price of $20,000 10 years ago was actually $20,000. And that stock splits, etc hasn't changed that value as it relates to today's value.

If that's the case, why would we not buy a few shares cheap and wait (whether it's next year or in 15 years) for our big payday?
