How to Time the AI Bubble
Q: I'm trying to talk my wife into buying a vacation home in Florida. What do you think?
If you can afford it and it enhances quality of life for your family, it seems like a good investment, especially considering estate planning benefits.
How to Time the AI Bubble
Q: Could you talk about how to use momentum indicators and stop losses to profit from an AI bubble?
By using momentum indicators and trailing stop-loss orders on broad-based ETFs, one can profit and mitigate risks during potential bubble scenarios.
Is It Time to Take Some Profits?
Q: Should I be rooting for a market downturn to buy before a bull market comes?
It's better to keep investing consistently; a market downturn can be beneficial if you have a high savings rate.
Is It Time to Take Some Profits?
Q: At what point should investors consider locking in profits, given that a market correction or pullback is likely?
Investors should balance their strategies according to their confidence in individual stocks versus index funds while considering market trends.
