Any stock has the potential to lose a lot. I would figure out how much you can afford to lose and invest twice that in sp 500. If there is crash of 50 percent, not predicting anything but possible, you will be fine.

I’d do maybe a 70/30 or 80/20 mix of SCHD (blue chip dividend stocks) and SCHZ (bonds) which will pay you 1-3%. That would be enough equity exposure for you to realize most of the market’s overall gains, plus hedge against a crash by guaranteeing 3-4% cash return

From my own point of view, I don't really want to spend my time on such returns, either, even if the revenue and easy return are nice.

US should not distract away from Asia Pacific. The pieces are in place in EU for the US to benefit already no matter what. And no, no nukes will happen guys...
