Should have moved to cash like some of the posters on this board. I’ll waiting to buy more when it drops more.

That was at noon. As as much as I loved your other X post (which was EXACTLY what I said last week..) is "Core Covenant of Capitalism" the new passed around phrase.. "CCC". Yikes
Hell of a lot more than that (for all accounts). I haven't done the math yet, but I would guess pretty damn close to 7-figures (if not already). LOL!
If you've been reading my posts (and I know you have but perhaps not all)... it was the firm managing the 1/3 that killed me. I had zero control over that in a timely manner.
Welcome to my world... recomendation..DO NOT do the math.
Yea, even what I left in I don’t want look at the account. When earnings comes out, I don’t think that’s going to be pretty.
I have a monthly spreadsheet for tracking our net worth. Scheduled to update it next weekend. LOL! Might have to skip a month. For day-to-day needs, I have our biggest accounts in Morningstar's portfolio tracker and I can view absolute values, percentages, or both. So that tool is pretty flexible.
LOL try weekly tracker (keeps my brain exercised). I'm up to 533 columns. I've custom built all kinds of totals and %. Yearly budgets going forward until projected DOD. Color coded for beneficiaries and inheritance calcs. (Corp Planner by trade for Fortune 50 Company)
Thing is everybody is only talking about the last week. Nobody is talking about the drops from the Mid-Feb highs prior to that. The warning shot I somewhat missed thinking the worst was behind .. (insert loud buzzer sound here)
eh what the heck. It's only my kids money and they'll never know. (kidding, it will be back plus more by then).
Oh wellCNBC host Jim Cramer warns of ‘Black Monday’ market crash over Trump tariffs rivaling record 1987 collapse
CNBC host and market commentator Jim Cramer warned that America was in store for another “Black Monday” market crash similar to the one of 1987 if President Trump does nothing to reel i…nypost.com
I didn’t know Cramer followed me on this board
Broke arm and foot
After 4 weeks of sitting around doing nothing I now have an 8 page spreadsheet where i have calculated current divs , future divs , where I’ll be in 5 years , 10 years
E4=B2*D2 x .07%/12 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I didn't look at specifics just know my entire portfolio is barely down from where it was two weeks ago.
No one with any knowledge listens to that guy. No one with money listens to that guy. If you are not one of those people, be advised to not listen to that guy.
Anyone who says their portfolio is up big and cannot provide specifics is lying.
You guys are crazy. What do you guys do calculate it every day or month. Way too detailed. I did a spreadsheet for my beneficiaries and my executor of my will of bank accounts and brokerage accounts. I do have to update it with recent changes.
Never said I was up big. Said I'm down far less than the market.
Up big? That will come later after the yugggge boomerang inevitably happens.
VK91 said he was up big. Everybody knew he was lying.
I doubt he was lying. There are a myriad ways of people making money in down markets.
Well, a couple of posters asked him what he was in and then he said he lost a couple hundred thousands the next day. I don’t care what people say on these boards.
Wrapped up today's webinar with Tom Lee/Fundstrat. Some highlights:
- Not sure this is the bottom, but likely very soon (barring a material change to the negative on the tariff details).
- Highly likely the market will experience a V-shape recovery like with COVID
- Recovery will be led by Big Tech
- Bessent eager for negotiations and improving trade for the US
- Business leaders speaking with Trump hourly
- If resolved within a month, no recession

There are few professionals in the business that are on the board. When they hear BS they don’t let it go.
I have an advisor that manages part of my money that uses a balance strategy. It’s a 53% dividend focused equities and 47% fixed income portfolio. YTD it’s down 5%. My personal manage money that’s mostly in mag 7 is down 15%. My 401k that’s invested in 3 mutually funds is down 16%.
Dude personal capital / empire can do all of that for you (at least the historical performance part)
So can GPS.. but I still like to look at a map and use my brain and sense of direction now and again.nuse it or lose it.
Hopefully negotiations, because 100% tariffs on China is going to be quite noticeable in stores.
I saw someone say that China would just ignore intellectual property and manufacture what they want and sell stuff all over the world at prices that would damage sales of US products

I’d say we’d pressure potential customers of pirated Chinese products but we may have given up that leverage.
Still i think we see negotiations.
That was the point the person was making. Other countries feel alienated and might be willing to buy these cheaper Chinese products no matter what the US feels.
I think Bessent was on Fox Business talking about negotiations with key partners. The markets would react positively to cutting deals with our allies yet staying tough on China and their proxies (which would make sense from a trade fairness POV).
I thought the point was more regarding 100% tariffs on China, but yeah I think the rest of the world is probably less willing to stand up for our intellectual property.
I have a monthly tracker that's not nearly as detailed - all on one page for expenses and overall investments, although I also have a spreadsheet detailing projected investment earnings and disbursements under a few different ROI/inflation/tax/spending scenarios.
