I just got a 3-month CD at 5.4 percent the other day. It's not going to make me rich, but it's a darn good place to park money while these rates last. Then I can figure out where to put it long-term at my leisure.

Yeah, but that kind of thing is for men who dive off cliffs and hunt with crossbows and flirt with women. I'm a humble gatherer who never travels far from my financial village.

It's -11% year to date in total return, -22% in 6M return. A ****ing dog. Dividends do not matter if your capital is being sunk by a stock moving in the wrong direction! |

I have nothing against TSLY and similar investment funds, I just don't really understand them and the risk. Buying stocks, options, shorting stocks all make sense in terms of what could go wrong that would cause one to lose a lot of money. I Have no idea on what scenario would result in TSLY completely tanking? Does the fund manager basically bet on the stock going one direction and if it goes the other direction that would be worst case scenario? |

From the looks of it, they also sometimes dive into water that's 3' deep and then brag about how great the food is at the hospital.

Still better in something like JEPQ over the intermediate-long term, but it's not always self-destructive in all cases. EDIT: Link to test |

TSLY seems to have the same downside risk as TSLA but lacks the growth potential during bulls to match the returns you’d have by actually just owning TSLA. Again, total returns! https://seekingalpha.com/article/466...ar-performance |

thats not totally true as long as the total return is higher ( taxes you pay on the dividends included, compared to long term capital gains of growth capture).. then even if the price drops, a high yield dividend stock can make sense.. but whats more concerning for some companies is the stability and risk of the dividend payment itself https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/TSLY/dividends/history Some companies have a proven track record of maintaining their dividend payment and even growing the dividend yield. This one (TSLY) looks really high right now but how long can they keep going like this? For income / dividend ETF I kind of like QQQX and QYLD. Maybe not as bold as TSLY but also less risky...

My purchase of NVDA stock is going to get an entire chapter in my autobiography. I'm up over 1,200 percent over the past three years or so.

Pardon my ignorance please.
I have 3,000 dollars in savings that I’d like to invest. I have never invested in my life but I’d like to get started. I’m not looking for anything to risky, just slow and steady growth. Where do I begin? Help me Chiefsplanet!!!

A million questions should probably be asked, but if a guy has nothing at all I’d be hard pressed to find a better positioned investment. Logic would dictate that if he thought he would need access to the money he would have mentioned it. |

Can’t wait to see what my SpirtAerosystems stock does when Boeing buys them back.
