I've been playing several of these revers splits and doing pretty well.

CEOs have learned to Shotgun a reverse split and trap short positions into immediately having to cover. They need to do a ticker change to do it right.

Adam AAron the AMC CEO is going about it all wrong. He's AND idiot!

If he would have just shotgunned the APE shares, Immediate RS and change the ticker to ASS , it would have worked perfectly.

SOXS was the play today. Any time the SPY is tanking ,thats the one to be in. I sold mine to early and left money on the table.

Liquidated ALL my long term stocks a while back and only day and swing trade now. I was tired of watching my "Long term portfolio drain.

I'm putting 750k into a 4.35% Ally CD.

This is the part you guys tell me how stupid I am.

Seems like a good deal to me. No risk. I dont have to pay a financial advisor to potentially lose money for me and I dont have to do.....anything. Thats the best part. 33k to sit on my ass. Sold.

A CD is probably stupid idea versus putting the max FDIC deposit in a few different money market accounts that have limited and/or time-bound penalties for withdrawals.

Probably depends on what your goals are. If you want to protect that $750k because you need it in the not-too-distant future, a CD is a good option.

If you aren't retiring for 30+ years, you'd probably be better putting it into investments. But, of course, that comes with risk, and there's a good chance it could be ulcer-inducing for a while as the market continues to have a lot of volatility.

But FWIW, you don't need a financial advisor to invest. Just open up a Vanguard or Schwab account and throw it into some index funds.

It also depends on how much cash you need to maintain your current standard of living if you were to lose your main source of income. If you don't need $750K for a year to a year and a half then you're better off locking up the amount you absolutely cannot live without and keep the rest in various forms of liquidity to buy market tracking ETFs in at prices you think are discounts.

If you're mainly thinking of this as retirement money and don't want to do the work of figuring out "how to invest," just open up a brokerage account at Vanguard and throw it all into a target date fund that's around the date you hope to retire. They are specifically designed to be an all-in-one option that gives you a ton of diversification and also decreases risk as your maturity date gets closer.

If, over time, you want to be more hands-on, you can always move away to more hand-picked stocks. But target-date funds will get you started.
