When are you degenerate gamblers going to give up and start indexing?

I want to buy the SP500 dip but a bunch of screeching communists here told me its going lower

I have 100k in vtsax in my 401k. That money is fucking helpless. It barely makes anything and I just have to pray nosebergstein doesn't take 40% every so many years. I fully expect a 60%+ correction and then stagnation for decades. Boomer investments are trash tier now.

in the short term it might. Hold it though. America is a good bet.

Do I have too many index funds, /biz/? I really like the VHT one because it's healthcare and I can count on the fat boomers to make me rich.

yup. no better way. you're fucking retarded if you go with anyone else other than vanguard. in probably ~25 years time, i'll start transferring most of my portfolio over to VWENX and i'll be set for the rest of my years.

Yeah I do the DRIP plan, I trust these index funds. Some of the ones that are a bit dodging or not as long-term I'll take the yield.

It used to be a good bet now it's just a bunch of dying boomers and 85 IQ Mexicans

i think jack bogle is a hero
he is almost single-handedly responsible for the explosion of diversification and indexing that has saved middle class investors billions and billions of dollars and in turn has done more to cultivate the american model of retirement than any other private citizen i can think of

Index funds are a leech on the economy. They don't contribute to price discovery while also reinforcing overbuying feedback loops so you get stupidly overvalued meme shit like Netflix and semis in every portfolio.

This is the board for people whose long term goal is having enough money to sit at home all day jacking it to anime. We don't give a shit if our income stream is a leech on the economy.

this could be true, but the problem is, the fees on active etf's are leeches on investor wallets
