Activist Investor Bill Ackman on The David Rubenstein Show

[@Aarrenrhonda3]

This is quite educational. It's crucial for newcomers to keep in mind that the financial markets are highly irrational in the short run. You should constantly be ready for the unexpected. That is how chance operates. Because of the inherent risks in the market, I always favor long-term investments.

[@Peterl4290]

These uncertainties will always be there. Thing is, every once in a while, the market does something so stupid it takes your breath away. If you’re not ready for it, you shouldn’t be in the market. or get you a skilled practitioner.

[@larrypaul-cw9nk]

Such market uncertainties are the reason I don’t base my market judgements and decisions on rumors' and hear-says, it got the best of me in the year 2020 and had me holding worthless positions in the market. I had to revamp my entire portfolio through the aid of my financial advisr, before I started seeing any significant results happens in my portfolio. Been using the same advisor since then and I’ve scaled up almost a million within 2 years. Whether a bullish or down market, both makes for good profit, it all depends on where you’re looking.

[@sabastinenoah]

Not bad at all. I know a lot of folks that made fortunes from the Dotcom crash as well as the 08’ crash and I’ve been looking into similar opportunities in this present market. Could this coach that guides you help?

[@sabastinenoah]

Thank you for this Pointer. It was easy to find your handler, She seems very proficient and flexible. I booked a call session with her.

[@AnnaOllsson]

Investing is all about knowing bearish periods ultimately establish a new crop of stocks to buy and watch while setting the stage for a robust new uptrend.I have been reading articles of people that grossed profits up to $250k during this crash, what are the best stocks to buy now or put on a watchlist?

[@HildaBennet]

You’re right! The current market might give opportunities to maximize profi.t, but in order to execute such effective transactions, you must be a skilled practitioner

[@DaliaCohen2230]

On the contrary, even if you’re not skilled, it is still possible to hire one. I am a project manager and my personal port-folio of approximately $750k took a big hit in April due to the crash. I quickly got in touch with a financial-planner that devised a defensive strategy to protect and profit from my port-folio this red season. I’ve made over $150k since then

[@DaliaCohen2230]

My portfolio is well-matched for every market season yielding 85% from early last year to date. I and my CFP are working on a 7 figure ballpark goal, tho this could take another year. IMO, financial advisors are the most sought-after professionals after doctors.

[@bartlyAD]

This sounds interesting. My portfolio is in the red. Can you recommend your analyst, please?

[@industryoverviewsonthego2096]

His definition of intifada is false. You just have to google it. It means a civil uprising. Intifada is an Arabic word that literally means “shaking off”, and in the Palestinian context, it is understood to mean a civil uprising.

[@Zkilll]

Correct, and from the river to the sea means let's all live in Lalaland and sing around the campfire. Things have also context and terms of use, most ignorant people who march in support of Hammas have no idea where to place Gaza on the map. Maybe spend the time educating people to seek for deteriorating hate speech and radicalization.

[@farzana6676]

What intifada means linguistically is very different to what it means practically. Im practical terms intifada is simply a call to promote Islamist terror(hostage taking, violence, killing civilians etc.)

[@janiegolden5338]

This is an insightful discussion and makes the viewers like me to ponder over the current issues. Thanks for the show!

[@ahmedhassan2756]

The Arabic word intifada ( انتفاضة) means "uprising" or "shaking off". It's used to describe periods of intense Palestinian protest against Israel. The term has been used to describe two major uprisings against the Israeli military occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip:

[@apollocreed1000]

There's no occupation. It's fake news

[@farzana6676]

Intifada is accompanied with alot of Islamist terror and history has proven it. The Gazans need to stop Islamist terror ideology. The Islamist objective to eradicate Israel will never be achieved.

[@Whatisallthisfor949]

Thanks for sharing great facts and educating. Only one correction, the correct spelling is Israhell.

Intifada refers to periods of intense Islamist terror and the 2nd intifada proves that.

[@BristolBerg]

Bill is a walking contradiction. He states he supports Israel at all cost and then says he supports the Palestinian plight. He targets the Harvard dean for being ineffective and neutral on campus Israel/ Palestine conflict, calls her a diversity hire and he himself is a legacy alumni who would not have gotten in on his own merit. He is also the Jim Kramer of the HF world, he states his position publicly while staking against his public position privately. Carl Icahn already called him out long ago. The last thing we need is this guy thinking he can run the country.

[@victorblock3421]

Better put than I can do. Ackman is just one of many thousands who have sided with these NaziCommunists from day 1. He is now only or maybe coming around to reality(not) because he's no longer welcome to the party but yet still stupidly insists he's "for a 2 state solution". What a more-on. He just doesn't get it and never will. If he wants to be just a bit serious, at least match his tens of millions in donations with donations to Yeshiva university and other such places he wouldn't want to be caught dead in.

Safest approach i feel to tackle it is to diversify investments. By spreading investments across different asset classes, like bonds, real estate, and international stocks, they can reduce the impact of a market meltdown

Agreed, It's essential to diversify your portfolio. While quality stocks are a solid foundation, you should also consider other assets to spread risk. Thankfully, I can attest to the success of this approach aided by professional guidance seeing my portfolio of $330k grow by 15% this year alone... maybe you should do the same.

Would harvard suspend students if they used the 'N' word against an African American?

How would you feel if someone describes you as human animals?? you said that it's not acceptable to support terrorism and I do strongly agree with you, but the main issue is how do you define terrorism? and last but not least: Intifada doesn’t mean killing Jews, this is very misleading because it has nothing to do with religion. Intifada is about liberating against the Israeli illegal occupation of Palestine. There will be never justice or peace as long as the Zionists see themselves above and better than the rest.
