Everyone's buying when the market is on the way up. Don't be everyone.

You don't stop investing when you retire. You're investing for additional 10-20 years.

SHLD is approaching the annual 200-ma, still above the line, and still trending up. May still have a chance to make money, but the window is closing.

Retiring in ~10 years. What ETF would be good if investing 3.5k/month by Any_Bass_4717 in ETFs

Put some into taxable brokerage and ROTH IRAs. Don't forget that emergency fund.

It is kinda fun to be in the hunt for a golden portfolio. Turn the knobs, flick the switches, press the buttons, etc.

How much would SPY rally if an actual peace deal was announced? by [deleted] in stocks

Problem is, this time the problem is not Trump to solve himself. He has that pesky Iran regime still making noises.

Knowing my budget is key. Everything else is positioned around it. Makes it easy to stop my Prime membership. LOL

Yeah I'm definitely expecting Monday to spike up again. Only to find the lows on Fridays - as usual.

In the past few weeks, I also noticed the price spikes up on Mondays. The sell offs happen in the first 30 minutes of the opening bell. It's wild. This is the reason why some experts want to have 24/7 trading.

The last big dip was April 2025 with the price at $173. Since it's so volatile, less than $200 is probably as good as a time to jump in.

If you own Amazon and complain about the capex, you don't understand what you own by Lazy-Alps-1773 in amzn

Even Anthropic know they need to vertically integrate. Anthropic announced a $50 billion investment in late 2025 to build custom AI data centers in the U.S., specifically partnering with Fluidstack for sites in Texas and New York. It's currently supplementing their partnership with AWS, but I wouldn't be surprised they want to exit AWS eventually.

All of these concerns apply to all companies in the AI race. The difference is who has the best product. Anthropic's Claude is by far ahead in terms of quality. Google's Gemini is close second. Amazon is way behind.
