Small cap included, but at least I can get more sector specific with small cap. Midcap has just consistently been underwhelming me and due to portfolio construction.... recommendations.... I'm sitting on a sizeable amount doing... nothing. |

I'm starting to think Utilities makes sense. Vanguard Utilities ETF is down about 20 percent over the past 18 months, but over the last 10 years has made on average 8 percent per year.

View Quote Utilities don't do well with high interest rates and high fuel prices. Might be a good buy now though. I bought a lot of my employer's stock at a 5 year low. Of course it went down another 10%. I still think I will do well on it though. |

View Quote The only problem with that is it’s adjusted for inflation. It averages 10% compounding returns. So when people say “but it only does 7%”, that’s the adjusted for inflation. In terms of total dollars it’s 10% |

Election year. https://i.postimg.cc/25W3nNSh/screenshot-781.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/XJ0q81rh/screenshot-781.jpg True. But don’t forget average bull is about 3-4 years so still plenty of room in this one. Bear is typically like 11 months. Which the previous bear followed almost to a tee. Damn it’s good to be permabull. If you want your 10% average returns you gotta take the punches and not be scared. Embrace the bear. Afterall it’s when you make the most money long term. |
