I would hold tight until mid-late April when the virus peaks and then invest $20k in index funds or blue chip stocks assuming you don’t need the $20k for anything for 5 years.
Blue Horsehoe loves Anacott Steel
I would put all $100K into SPY puts with mid May expirations
IF you really had $100K...
You wouldn’t!
I’d pay off all my debt (car, house, credit cards) and keep the rest liquid.
Exactly- with inflation coming, you’re better off refinancing at a lower rate & riding it out
do i need it right now? if not put all of it into S&P 500
Bailouts and government support while we are supply constrained will cause inflation ... I wouldn't pay off debt.
I'd invest in whatever dropped in value but will likely be "too big/important to fail"
This is assuming that you will keep your job throughout all this.
Would you wait for the virus to peak before investing in those “too big to fail” ones?
I'd keep a bit on the side, maybe 10k, and trickle the rest into the sp500 via something like VOO. On big drop days a few thousand in. On rise days nothing in
I have a lot more than that sitting in my savings account earning 2.3% and don’t plan to invest any. Will tide me over for a long time if needed and then my portfolio will be back in shape. I did consider investing but am happy with where I am and don’t need any more upside. I do want the security of being able to manage for a long time if I had no cash coming in.
No one rn as you’ve all guessed. I lucked out about a year ago and put cash in term deposits at that rate. So I am glad it’s sitting there
Assume little debt, like $10k student loans that you’ll pay off through regular payments over coming year.
I have a liquid emergency fund that covers 4 months of salary rather than expenses in the event that shit hits the fan. Other than that, all of my money is in various mutual funds. I’m saving up money for a downpayment now
I would start deploying capital at various levels. You could do a portion right now and wait to see what the market does. If it goes down, I would deploy some more capital. Break it up into indexes, stocks, and fx that you feel confident about. Deploying different portions at various levels helps you avoid FOMO.
Personally, I’m going to invest in utilities, tech, and financial services. Short-term, I’m bearish gold but bullish long term. Bullish dollar index short term.
Depending on how you plan to use it over the next 5 years I'd find a good CD or high yield savings to put whatever minimum I needed to get additional perks then invest the rest into some blend of high risk/ return and more market following funds. Because it'll all be taxed differently depending on where you put it and when you take it out, you def want a balance of profiles even if the market looks very enticing right now.
100k total or 100k to invest? If the latter, 10 weeks x 10k each in my normal allocation.
100k total? Zero. I have 150k liquid but keeping it dry.
Emergency fund. High fixed costs. Household is already 1 full income light; SO was in final rounds following a family relo and everything is on pause.
I would invest it all in solid companies whose shares have been hit hard. The world economy will not collapse. The zombie apocalypse is not upon us. Go all in US equities.
I would buy an automated mask production machine, setup shop in the living room, and sell made in USA N95 masks to hospitals around the country.
This is gross
There’s no way to time the bottom so I’ve begun picking small positions from a long term perspective. I don’t care much for short term corrections and am prepared to ride out the storm. I’m closely following (and buying when volatility leads to momentary dips) Oil, Airline ETF and Banking.
