Hello fellow SAP Consultants!
I am SAP HCM consultant having 4.10 years of experience. I feel that this module doesn’t have any growth. My first switch took me to 9LPA from 6LPA and now the second switch is being offered for 11.5LPA where I can see my fellow friends in SAP having more than 15LPA at the same experience on their second switch itself. Should I be worried about my skillset? Any insights would highly be appreciated. I feel stuck.

Is anyone actually making any new trades today or just participating in the sell-off by taking money off the table/sitting tight?

MSFT, JWN, INTC, OXY/XOM, PEP, CHGG, ADBE are some of the stocks I'm closely watching/considering getting in on.

Option 1: sell puts which protects from further downside but locks my money/caps upside in case we do see recovery?

Option 2: buy shares which doesn't cap my upside in case recovery starts next 2 weeks but risk further downside?

Option 3: ???
