Wow the Dow is over twenty five thousand! Wow! Just a few weeks ago it was only two thousand! Two to twenty is a big change! It’s like if someone gave you two pennies one day and the next day those two was worth a hole dollar!
I don know why they call this a bull market though. Are a lot of those sold when the stocks go up a lot? Maybe I’ll try an smoke a hole bull!

You will give yourself a heart attack watching the market these days. Unless you sold today you haven't lost anything so sit back, relax and poor a drink.

This post was made to be funny (and sarcastic), as yes the Dow set a new record a week ago. It took a big drop Monday, recovered some ground Tuesday, then tanked 803 points today. So now we move from a bullish market to a bear market, which some say points to a recession. Too many politics are driving the market nowadays!
-
Actually we are far from a bear market. I agree on the politics driving the market though. I doubt we agree on what politics considering you point that out though.

Yea, every person in a good investment portfolio. I guess that is a problem?

Everyone always talks about the stock market, yet very few ever mention the precious metals market. Those of us that have invested in precious metals, have no problem at all with the stock market going down. To the contrary, our investment soars when stocks go down. It's kind of like betting the "don't pass" line at the craps table.

I have been a believer and investor in the stock market since 1966. Back then I was squirreling away the modest amount that I could set aside typically meaning I could only buy 5 or 10 shares of "whatever" at a time each month. The point was building a diverese portfolio. Early on I believed in the wisdom of buying for the long haul and not sh*t my pants when the brutal dips occur. As was said earlier unless you sold your stocks in the last few days or weeks then just take a deep breath and calm down.

In May, Buffett asked his audience to compare the returns made by investing $10,000 in gold in 1942 vs. investing that same amount in an S&P 500® Index fund.1He then revealed that the S&P 500 investment would be worth $51 million today compared with roughly $400,000 for gold. This comparison, with no additional insight, would cause almost any investor to question a gold investment. After all, using Buffett’s numbers, we’re talking about a 12.06% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for stocks vs. a 5.04% CAGR for gold, which results in what looks like a lost investment opportunity worth millions of dollars over 76 years.

And 99% of investors can't time any market worth a ****. To say someone could invest in metals and make money over any other investments is just as general a statement. Way too many variables. Timing ANY market is near impossible and a fools errand.

I don't think we'll ever see $45 silver or $1800 gold again, unless the dealers can get a panic buy going again.......but both are up about about 15% over the last 3 months. -

If the argument is that a diversified portfolio leads to lower risk and one option is precious metals (which historically have exhibited lower volatility), I’d be buying what you’re selling.DFW - 1 LGBE & Happy to Adopt More... -

I didn't mean to turn this thread into a precious metals vs market debate. I'm simply pointing out the correlation. When one is up, the other is down. And you boys can shake your finger all you want .. I've made a ton of money in the precious metals market. I'm sure many of you have done the same in the stock market. Like I said .. it's the pass line vs the don't pass line.

Had a person bought Bitcoin in 2010 it was .06 cents for one Bitcoin. Today it was over 10,000. It’s been over 19,000 few years ago. Talk about a sweet return.
