Where to invest right now?
Incoming SA and was wondering if anyone has advice on where I should invest the money that I will make this summer. I am bearish on the US and think we might have a few years of little returns? Is it still worth buying US equities right now? Anyone bullish on china? Their GDP has been growing like crazy and stocks seem to be lagging. Any particular ETF?
I am not looking for delusional ways to make 20%+ returns but ideally 6/7% per year over the next decade
Thank you!!
Swing trading SQQQ may be a good approach for you then. It's done fantastic YTD (105% return). You could also try PSQ or QID if you want less leverage and are bearish on tech equities.
If you're looking for 6-7% annual over a 10 year horizon why are you asking where to invest? Just buy the S&P 500 (SPY) ...
the US stock market is not the US and many of the S&P 500's components get the majority or a significant share of their revenue from overseas. you don't have to be bullish on the US to buy MSFT, you just have to be bullish on MSFT, capiche?
GDP is a lagging indicator, if you believe they will repeat in the future, that's fine, but markets are forward looking, and shares aren't priced in P/GDP, it's on the companies' earnings, CF, etc.
asking for advice from anonymous people will get you answers all over the map, people have different priorities and time horizons and risk tolerance than you, so take everything with HUGE grain of salt, and I'd go so far as to say IGNORE ANYONE WHO DOESNT SAY WHAT THEY OWN
what do I own? outside of emergency/short term funds which are all in cash (I value liquidity over a paltry 1% return on STFI), I'm 100% stocks, 60-80% US and about 50% of that is large cap (quality/dividend growth/value/GARP bias) and the other 50% of that split between mid and small cap managers that have long track records (though you'd be fine with an index fund as well). for the international piece, I outsource that as well to managers or index funds. given my title I can't divulge specific holdings since that could be construed as a recommendation, but the tenets of my philosophy are as follows
