There is so much winning happening in the U.S.

It's great that everyone over there stays silent while getting absolutely recked and losing their entire 401(k)s.

Just wait until the job losses start. My Q2 forecast process just changed and it’s all about eliminating of non essential expenses. Pretty much was every finance person is doing right now. I expect layoffs to start before the end of Q2 if nothing changes.

Good thing Republicans have essentially phased out pensions so the working class only has those 401(k)s.

more like getting rich with their 401ks, continuing to add units, much more units at regular intervals for the same amount of money. Once it goes back up like it always does, multiplied number of units. even more wealth

Whereas those without 401k type of investing have to sell to get dip buy money, forcing them to take realized losses

I made 44% YTD in my Roth and just have it all sitting in SPAXX while I wait.

I have no clue what to buy, it’s not a lot of money. But I want to buy some stocks to hold. Nvidia, JPM and JNJ, just split between those 3 idk.

Buy the dip? Or just go all in on red at a roulette table, same odds of winning
