So, we talk about diversity like "invest in ex-US to balance out the US" but often times these go up and down at the same time, and even BND has strong correlation with stocks. How can I actually mitigate risk?
40% SPMO, 30% IDMO, 20% XMMO, 10% XSMO. Would something like this be crazy to hold long term?
Most people recommend 50/60/70% in VT/VTI/VXUS/VOO/SPYM etc. Is this actually that necessary? Can I just replace these with SPMO, QQQM etc?
Been investing for a few months. Have basically ignored these up until now. How much do they really matter?
I have invested $5,000 over the past 4 months. My portfolio value is currently sitting at $5,010. I have changed trends and sold at losses over that time. Don't be like me
New to investing. I see SCHD recommend quite a lot. I don't really get it? The returns are much lower than other options, and the actual amount you make on dividends is basically nothing unless you've got like, half a million in them. Is this something only for veteran investors with a lot of money to dump?
Am currently enrolled in FAR. Have gone over the past exams provided by CAANZ, but decided to go with an external resource provider as well, who offered past exams back to 2010. Is it just me, or are the current exams like a third of the length of what they used to be?
