And in response to "easy to follow"... You could say the trend is stocks are obviously up. But then you could say overbought compared to earnings so wait for a dip. You can't see the top until after the fact. You could have predicted we were at the top about 100 times this year. Can't predict when or if the reversal will happen.
%% I see your points; except wars tend to be bullish. IF I lived in Iraq or Iran I would want to sell+move; but I don't. Buy when there is blood in the streets; but just don't buy a a 191% debt level co like TSLA,$40, 000,000 SEC fined co, unless you like to do stupid stuff.,Good follow point/trend follow points.................................................................................
Yea I was gonna say that... Wars are good for the economy, unless you're country happens to be bombed to the ground.
Same as fine art and collectible cars. Many stocks also don't pay a dividend or even produce a profit. Many gold stocks produce a dividend. Over the past year, gold stocks (GDX) have outperformed your "investment".
Always wait for a dip in order to re-enter. Never wait for overbought to confirm before taking profits. In an uptrend, be long: do not be short until we're in a downtrend. If we're not in either an uptrend or a downtrend as defined by your individual strategy, either use an interim alternative strategy or just go and enjoy some time at the beach.
