Thread: Steel_Magnolia's Account Talk

  1. Default Re: Steel_Magnolia's Account Talk

    It's so good to see that nasa and Norm are still around! I'm guessing Birch is retired and enjoying the beach? What about Alevin, Frixxxx, James(whatever #'s), coolhand, burrocrat...??

    And thanks for the welcome back, mmk119. I hope I find you in the "New Friends" category. Steel_Magnolia's Account Talk

    We haven't heard from Birch in a long time, although I think coolhand has kept in touch with him.

    All the others you mention are still around - some as regulars, some pop in here and there, except for Burrocrat. Sad story... Passing of Burrocrat

    Nope. You will always have a 7 month lead on us.
    May the force be with us.

    Tom, thanks for letting me know about Matt. I was saddened to learn the news but so proud of our TSPTALK family for steeping up to help!

    As far as the stock market goes, I am a fairly conservative trader. My current allocation is 30% in investment grade corporate and high dividend bonds, 10% QQQ's, 10% IWF ( somewhat analogous to S Fund), 10% in a C Fund analogy, 10% in two ETFs that would constitute an I Fund analogy, and the rest in stocks and ETFs such as JNJ, PFE, SHOP, ZM, TDOC and others involved in stay at home and vaccine businesses.

    So far, I'm pleased with the results.

    With interest rates close to zero, being in bonds (F Fund analog) as a hedge against equity problems doesn't seem like the place to be. Normally I would go to gold. But am I remiss in not looking at Bitcoin?

    Those who know me know I'm a bit of a fuddy. I love the fact that there's a Bitcoin thread here! Something for every need. Steel_Magnolia's Account Talk

    I mostly trade it because I have a hard time watching things fall while I hold - a flaw in my strategy for sure, but I think bitcoin is a worthy addition to any long term portfolio at some percentage depending on one's tolerance for risk and volatility.

    The market seems un-phased by that. Too many other things to worry about (or be excited about) I guess.
