Congratulations, I'm sure your example will be the grounds which people make life changing decisions. Or....perhaps everyone has a investment strategy that works best for them and they should spend due diligence learning about various options.
Anyhow, congratulations. Glad we could have a good debate on this topic with your excellent example.

Re: Buy and Hold.....Nah!
It's blowing my mind how great the market has been these past two months. B&H looks to be the strategy for the past two months. How much steam does this train have (rhetorical question)?

Kinda funny about these headlines on CNBC Morning Squawk, "Bernie Sanders launches 2020 bid. Sen. Elizabeth Warren plans to unveil today also. Dow set to fall."

If bernie were to ever win the election, the G fund would be a home for 4 years.

Re: Buy and Hold.....Nah!
I'd bet against that, and it wouldn't be for political reasons, it'd be for common sense reasons. The white house doesn't have as much as an influence on the market as we like to think it does to satisfy whatever political leaning we have. Unless you're retired, to have your money sitting on the sidelines for 4 years just because your worried about what a president does is letting emotion drive your decision making. From history, folks who let their emotions do the bidding always come out on the short end of the stick in the retirement game.Billionair wrote:If bernie were to ever win the election, the G fund would be a home for 4 years.
My advice, stick to your strategy regardless who is in office. The market is influenced by far more than what a president says or is able to accomplish.

Re: Buy and Hold.....Nah!
Even if the market continues this extreme seesaw movement. Are we not adapting, are we not changing our IFT strategies. I view it as a advantage tool.
