Investors should be cautious in second half due to front-loaded 2024 gains, says Wells Fargo's Cronk

Darrell Cronk, Wells Fargo CIO for wealth and investment management, joins CNBC to discuss what market outlooks ahead of Fed rate cuts, how to position, and more.

[@SarahBrown-h7n]

Successful investing is hard work because it means disciplining your mind to do the opposite of human nature. Buying during a panic, selling during euphoria, and holding on when you are bored and just craving a little action. Investing is 5% intellect and 95% temperament.

[@Raymond-j4t]

I'm overall outperforming a lot of assets by holding Bitcoin and a few other top crypto altcoins. When my percentage goes down it goes down about double that of the s&p100/500 but when it goes up it goes up like 5 times the S&P rate.

[@raymond-i2v]

The only issue you might have is the fear of missing out, just like everyone else. A good number of people discredit the effectiveness of financial advisors in exploring new markets, but over the past 5years I’ve had a financial advisor consistently restructure and diversify my portfolio/expenses and I’ve made over $3million in gains… might not be a lot but i'm financially secure.

[@Lucas-t5w4n]

who is your advisor please, if you don't mind me asking?

[@raymond-i2v]

‘Jessica Lee Horst’ is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.

Biggest lesson i've learnt in 2024 in the stock market is that nobody knows what is going to happen next, so practice some humility and follow a strategy with a long term edge.

[@purplebliss6875]

AI stocks continue to dominate 2024. Why I prefer NVIDIA is that they are better placed to maintain long term growth potential, and provide a platform for other AI companies. I know someone who has made more than 200% from NVIDIA. I'll also take any other recommendations you make.

[@ErinWarner-zc9jy]

Not offering any particular advice, but I can assure you that most stocks still have growth potential. Re-distributing is not as hard as many people think it is. Ordinary investors lack the requisite level of diligence, so having a financial advisor on board is usually highly beneficial. In the market, this is how people generate enormous profits.

[@annaj.osorio]

Absolutely! A skilled coach helped grow my investments from $321k to over $750k, primarily through stocks, ETFs, and bonds. I anticipate housing prices will stay stable until more homes become available.

People dismiss the importance of advisors until they are burned by their own emotions.

[@Jones21554]

There are tools that allow investors to invest in companies before they hit the stock market, multiplying those potential gains that otherwise wouldn’t be available after the initial public offering. That’s what I am up to, steer clear from the equities and bond market, my humble opinion.

[@Infinitymazepa7920]

I completely agree! I've had the pleasure of working with a seasoned professional for nearly 4 years,who have been involved in launching IPOs. We got in fairly early with a modest amount of money. Then it mushroomed like an atomic bomb. We had over 4 m dollars after GME profits in 2020/2021. Inflation has eaten away at the nest egg but we are lucky to have Glen look after it diligently like she has done the past 3-4 years.
