Expect weakness in stocks while markets are historically expensive, says Citi's Chronert

[@BarbaraLouise-i3r]

I feel investors should focus on under-the-radar stocks, considering the current rollercoaster nature of the stock market, Because 35% of my $270k portfolio comprises plummeting stocks that were once revered. I don't know where to go here out of devastation.

[@JuneTalley]

The 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.

@@JuneTalley It's often true that people underestimate the importance of financial advisors until they feel the negative effects of emotional decision-making. I remember a few summers ago, after a tough divorce, when I needed a boost for my struggling business. I researched and found a licensed advisor who diligently helped grow my reserves despite inflation. Consequently, my reserves increased from $275k to around $750k.

@@amolejoshua7452 This is considerable! think you could suggest any professionals/advisors? I'm in dire need of proper portfolio allocation.

To be kinda blunt, I am giving up on investing in stocks... I put between 2000 to 3000 a month and it's nothing but down .... Sooooo frustrating and I only invest in boring big companies. How can I capitalize in such a market?

Great Buying opportunities today. Embracing pullbacks and correction is key. This is where the money is made!

[@hushbash2989]

Absolutely! Wealth is made in bear markets. We aren’t in a bear market, but nibbling heavy red days has proven to be fruitful for me over 4 years of investing. I am at 2.25 mil. Biggest positions VOO, VTI, SCHD, VYM, and now looking to build up DRGO alongside finding quality value/growth stocks to buy. I got $48k divs last year in taxable divs. Q2 taxable divs this year was $17,388 this year. Don't sell when the market is down. Having a skilled CFA that puts the time in to do in-depth research can be invaluable in strategizing your portfolio.

Can I try this? I need one to review my portfolio but anyone who is fee-based is hard to find and usually have a heavy workload. Would you be comfortable sharing a recommendation if it's not too much problem

[@hushbash2989]

Well, there are a few out there who know what they are doing. I tried a few in the past years, but I’ve been with Lauren Marie Ehlers for the last five years or so, and her returns have been pretty much amazing.

I just curiously searched her up, and I have sent her an email. I hope she gets back to me soon. Thank you

Every time there's a new high, stocks are 'Historically expensive'. What's the point?

[@FireEverLiving]

Not necessarily. If earnings rise at the same rate as prices, P/E will stay the same. Another way to look at "expensiveness" is the equity risk premium, which takes both earnings and interest rates into account. By both measures, stocks are rather expensive compared to past periods. Though this has not historically been a good predictor of bear markets in the short-term.

I thought he was good. But this time, where did he get that 23 PE? Does he know anything?

[@wanderingquestions7501]

Rally? Just look at the volume of the major indexes.

[@MillenialJoe]

Stocks are expensive because these so called experts have been waiting for a recession since 2022 and stayed in the sidelines 😂
