[@micheal_mills]

The rising interest rate can surely control inflation, but won't prevent erosion of the eroding purchasing power of the US dollar. I have learnt my lesson this time. The banks can't be making money off my money, while inflation eats into it. I have set aside 650k to invest in the stock market now, since that keeps up with inflation, but I don't know how to get started.

[@donna_martins]

Investing without proper guidance can lead to mistakes and losses. I've learned this from my own experience.If you're new to investing or don't have much time, it's best to get advice from an expert.

[@Walter_hill_]

Keeping money in the bank is like paying banks and the Govemment. Here's how it works: The bank gives out your money as loan, and charge interest obviously higher than inflation rate, and then give you, the depositor, interest lower than inflation rate. That means net loss for you. That is why I prefer to invest, and on average, my advisor makes returns that always beats inflation!

[@Trevor_Morrow_LTD]

Mind if I ask you to recommend this particular advisor you using their service?

[@Walter_hill_]

Vivian Jean Wilhelm a highly respected figure in her field. I suggest delving deeper into her credentials, as she possesses extensive experience and serves as a valuable resource for individuals seeking guidance in navigating the financial market.

[@Trevor_Morrow_LTD]

Thank you so much for your helpful tip! I was able to verify the person and book a call session with her. She seems very proficient and I'm really grateful for your guidance

[@seanhepner]

Investors are extremely alarmed by the impending recession and the Fed's rhetoric of raising interest rates. My $600,000 stock portfolio has lost 25% of it’s value. Whats the best way to hedge my portfolio to make profit in this coming recession

True, some folks employ hedging strategies or devote a portion of their portfolio to defensive assets that perform well during market downturns and such pointers are provided by engaging the services of market experts just like i did in 2019, amid rona-outbreak, and as of today, i can boost of a 45% enhancement on my $1m portfolio after acquiring assets recommended by my advisor.

The only American who won't acknowledge this Administration's failed economic policies is Joe Biden. "Shrink-flation' is the least of our worries compared to rising rents and stagnant wages, but it is an undeniable indicator of how bad our inflation has gotten. I have $100k that i like to invest in a non-retirement account, any advice on that?

[@NicholasHarmon-ow3jl]

I would avoid index funds, mutual funds, and specific stocks for the time being. Right now, the best option is a fixed income of five percent. Put money aside for the times when the market really starts to bounce back.

[@carssimplified2195]

45% of Americans do not invest in the stock market because of lack of guidance. Every year you don't invest, you are falling behind. I’m hitting numbers in the stock market I used to dream of… Going from $50k to $600k in my portfolio is surreal all thanks to insights from my financial advisor.

[@Pamela.jess.245]

Your adviser must be really good, I hope it's okay to inquire if you're still collaborating with the same adviser and how I can get in touch with them?

[@carssimplified2195]

She goes by ‘’Marisa Michelle Litwinsky’’ I suggest you look her up. To be honest, I almost didn't buy the idea of letting someone handle growing my finance, but so glad I did

[@Pamela.jess.245]

Thank you! I entered her full name into my browser, and her website came out on top. I filled her form and i hope she gets back to me soon.

[@JefferyDuns]

The looming recession and the Fed's rhetoric of raising interest rates have investors extremely concerned. I'm not sure what to do with my $600,000 portfolio yet. because we may not enter a recession, and even if the Fed is hawkish, interest rates may not be raised further.

True, A lot of folks downplay the role of advisors until being burnt by their own emotions. I remember couple summers back, after my lengthy divorce, I needed a good boost to help my business stay afloat, hence I researched for license advisors and came across someone of due diligence, helped a lot to grow my reserve notwithstanding inflation, from $275k to approx. $850k so far

[@Nernst96]

in times like these, it's crucial to be cautious and not rush into the market , Who is this your FA , my portfolio needs urgent attention , been a lot of loss.

[@PatrickLloyd-]

[@Nernst96]

She appears to be a true authority in her profession with over two decades of experience. I looked her up on the internet and skimmed through her site, very professional. already sent her an inquiry hoping for a response soon.

[@Powerz00]

With inflation at 3.70%, I'm looking to enter the market now and ride it out as the economy improves. I'm putting together a $350,000 portfolio with Stocks and ETF's. Do you have any recommendations with solid cash flow?

we shouldn't act on every forecast. It is best you speak with a market expert before making any investment decisions.

[@SaintYvess]

You're right, I and a few Neighbors in Bel Air Area work with an advisor who prefers we DCA across other prospective sectors. Instead of a lump sum purchase, Following this, my portfolio grew 40% in the last quarter.

[@sting_grayl]

Pls who is this coach that guides you? I’m in dire need of one, my stock portfolio is declining even in a bulll market.

[@SaintYvess]

Well, I chose *Jennifer Leigh Hickman* as my advisor after her interview on CNBC In 2020. She is SEC regulated with offices in the US and quite frankly a genius with portfolio diversification.

[@Christine-wp2bw]

I just found her webpage and read through her educational background and qualifications, which were all very impressive. So I scheduled a call with her.

[@JeganBedpal]

Although I have interests in global economics I don't watch the news anymore... I have enough FUD lol. Thanks for this news and offering your insight on how to navigate during unfortunate times/events like this. You're right about keeping level headed when investing so that's why I think it's important to limit the amount of FUD we consume. I don't watch the media but the news that you present has enough to know issues going on without riding the emotional rollercoaster if I were to watch the news everyday. Now I buy and just trade long term more than ever, I have made over 16 btc from day trading with Kerrie Farrell in few weeks, this is one of the best medium to backup your assets incase it goes bearish....

[@TedStalets]

Investing with an expert is the best strategy for beginners and busy investors, as most failures and losses in investment usually happen when you invest without proper guidance. I'm speaking from experience.....

[@rogercav40]

The fact that i got to learn and earn from her program is everything to me think about it, it's a win win for both ways....

[@PatchettStalls]

[@corrySledd]

I can understand people being bearish with these conditions. However, it is not reasonable for most people to sit on the sidelines while your cash position debases by 10% or more per year..What is the best way for me to invest 180k into my portfolio?

[@AUstinnesc]

I believe a healthy portfolio has 3 things, at the bare minimum: Exposure to ETFs for increased diversification, Exposure to assets that generate cash flow like dividend stocks, Exposure to market-leading tech.

[@maddysys]

The economy and stocks are two different things these days

[@chrissmurrayy]

The market is not necessarily a rollercoaster if you know your way around the market, there are various opportunities in the present market to accrue good profit, If you are not too savvy with the market, just buy and hold on strong companies with good earnings, or consult with advisors on ETFs and actively managed funds. That’s what works for my spouse and I. We've made over 80% capital growth minus dividends.

Honestly, this concerns me and has left me uneasy. Especially this potential depression, no more a recession. I'm unsure about my $130K account strategy, considering the uncertainty of this whole recession mostly.

If you lack knowledge about market investing tactics, get advice from a financial counselor.

[@Owenra]

Agreed! this is why I work with one. My $520k portfolio is well-matched for every market season yielding 85% rise from early last year to date. I and my advsor are working on more figures for this year. IMO, financial advisors are the most sought-after professionals after doctors.

Great stuff. We can't ignore the potential impact on portfolios. Bonds are often considered a safe haven, and if they eventually crumble, investors like me might scramble. I’ve been investing for 11 yrs and my 1m portfolio has never been this depleted, how i do hedge this?

[@FranciszekPawal]

In fact, markets have been incorrectly priced in such a way that the fed has to pivot six times over the last two years, according to Deutsche Bank, which sounded cautious about this seventh time. This show why pointers from finance-managers are essential

I have been trading for about 6 months now and just about every mine, it backfires and slaps me in my face. Nearly impossible for me to catch more than a few points I try to do top down analysis but it doesn't work for me . I say to myself, clearly I'm in the 90% that lose money, so I open a demo account, do my analysis, then take the opposite of what I would normally take and get the same result. I'm starting to feel hopeless, any advice for a struggling trader?

[@nobuhlerodrigocath2755]

Don't listen to him, don't give up. Mining takes time(months, even years) to master, even the pros learn everday. Never the less, if you lose money no matter which side you take, maybe you need to look at how you are managing active trades rather than how you are entering them. My advice, find a mentor . And also, try incorporating the use of oscillators, Bollinger and pivot points into your strategy. And most importantly move to higher TFs(4h or 1D preferably), you'll thank me later.

[@emmapriscilla6132]

You're absolutely right. While I don't incur losses with every trade, my primary challenge lies in allowing my winning trades to fully develop. I often find that I miss out on significant movements in the market. Instead of capitalizing on these opportunities, my trades tend to reverse after initially moving in my favor. Additionally, I acknowledge that my entry points could be significantly refined. Finding a mentor to guide me through these challenges would be immensely beneficial, although I recognize that locating a reputable mentor is easier said than done. If you happen to know any legitimate mentors, I would greatly appreciate any recommendations you could provide.

[@nobuhlerodrigocath2755]

I've been working with a financial advisor since I started investing. In today's market, the challenge lies in timing purchases and sales of trending stocks, which seems straightforward but can be tricky. My portfolio has grown significantly, making about $1500 bi-weekly. Essentially, what I'm saying is that the 5% of consistently profitable traders often fly under the radar; they're typically low-key individuals. I rely on my account manager to handle entry and exit orders for me.
