Guest Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 The market kind of sucks this year. Unless it takes off in the next few months, it will be a small gain year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My news feeds at work are starting to fill up with preparing for a down market, fixed income strategies, etc., kinds of webinars and seminars. Im hoping we get back to 26k, and then maybe pull some stuff into safer havens before or if any correction or downturn happens. Gonna be a busy couple months.

Funny cause I've been hearing markets are too risky since at least 2012 and fixed income bonds were the way to go. My investment timeline goes until the day I'm burried. I'm expecting many corrections before that happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are the ones I really have to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the college funds work like the target dates, which in the last couple years, have left a bunch of money on the table. Fixed income investments have been really tricky...,Tech bubble. Schmech bubble... a lot of that stuff has and is still on fire Apple up 5% today to a new high....glad I bought some yesterday for some folks.

Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted August 2, 2018 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted August 2, 2018 (edited) Go DEXCOM (DXCM) go! Got quite a bit in it and its up almost 26% today! Also nice to see some tech stocks more than stabilize. Shows some of the drop was auto induced. Good sign for the overall health of the market.

Watched an interview with their ceo a while back and he talked about them having the only medicare approved auto insulin tester/injector coming on the market. Then he talked about the number of certain diabetics who might use it. No brainer. Only done fair until today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
