*Your explanations are clear and straight forward It's always a honor to have you here as a mentor, I appreciate you for the time being spent to educate us financially. Regardless of how bad it gets the economy, I still makeover $28K every single week. I truly value Laura, and her helpful guides.*

[@MuchParrill]

The first step to successful investment is figuring your goals and risk tolerance either on your own or with the help of a financial professional but it's very advisable you make use of professional.

[@WillPerry-b7r]

I know Laura, she has really set the standard for others to follow, we love her here in the UK as she has been really helpful and changed lots of lives.

[@WillPerry-b7r]

You're right! The very first time I tried, I invested $2000 and after a week, I received $8,400. That really helped us a lot to pay up our bills.

[@SaviourUmo]

Interesting! But I'm new here. How can I get to this person's guidelines??

I'm long so I will just hold my megas and add shares when they dip 5-10%

It will work until it doesn't

[@snwbm]

​@tino1317 if holding mega caps long term somehow stops working, the world as we know it has come to an end and no one is safe. So that is the last thing I worry about in life.

Seriously why would anyone bet against the best companies with massive growth potential? I don’t get it.

[@method341]

I think Liz Young is a terrible forecaster but at the same time, there's way too many bulls in the comments. We need a 10-15% correction to keep a 30% correction at bay.

Agreed. So best to sell now instead of trying for the exact top

@@michaelshih8163 optimism Good economic news? Bullish! Bad economic news? Mean rate cuts will come, which is bullish. That’s the core of my wariness. High valuations combined with a sense that for months any news is twisted into bullish news in the minds of excited investors

I can’t believe they still have her, Adami, and Dan Nathan around. They don’t bring on Wilson. Why these fools?

[@watchin-stoof988]

As always the comments are right. She’s been so insanely wrong for so wrong it’s wild. I guess keep being bearish and it will one day be accurate

[@w3s77]

She doesn't understand basic finance. Embarrassing for CNBC trotts her out for diversity.

[@Benedictrud]

She is probably right, anyways I believe both the short and long run, a bear and bullish market provides equal avenue to amass good gains I've seen people make 6figures profit as high as $200k in a bear market and I've seen them pull it off much easily in a bull market, it all comes down to having the right information and applying it.

[@Adambarking]

..well politicians for certain are gaining off the crash, and true the average individual could profit off a crash but such high-grade investing come with equal risk which can only be managed by a proper pro or expert. ''

[@Kaustavpatell]

No doubt, having the right plan is invaluable, my portfolio is well-matched for every season of the market and recently hit 100% rise from early last year. I and my CFP are working on a 7 figure ballpark goal, tho this could take till Q3 2024....//

[@Jamesjerome0]

bravo! the whole markt has gone berserk now, almost not possible to outperform without expert guidance.. think your adviser would get on the phone with a newcomer??? i'm in dire need of proper portfolio allocation ?

[@Kaustavpatell]

" SUNITA SUZANNE BYG " is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment....

[@Jamesjerome0]

Thanks a lot for this suggestion. I needed this myself, I looked her up, and I have sent her an email. I hope she gets back to me soon.;;;

lol I dont know what gains she is trimming when she sat out the entire run her clients has no gains to trim yet they allow her on the show time and time again as a show piece pretty to look at but nothing substantive or informative to offer. i think Scot like her

How bout Sofi Investors being decimated past 3 years!!!!!worst performer by far and now Short reports itd be nice IF SOFI MANAGEMENT ACTUALLY CARED

trim your gains and then what? Buy back at the exact time your crystal ball tells you to buy back in. Just buy and hold and when there is a dip buy more.

[@thenewbanker1225]

Only thing she’s good at is looking easy on the eyes

Liz Young has been totally wrong for years, been consistently and incorrectly bearish. At what point does she get held to account???

[@user-bm2qy3te5d]

Who cares. If we get a cooler print we'll get a hard rally. She's just afraid to say "hard rally" on TV.

Yup….listening to her has lost a lot of people money…..she’s too cautious

I would trim my sofi but it never grows.

Why is she still in her job? Like jp morgan kalanovic she shud be fired as well else system is filled with such useless ppl

[@user-bd3gt9jt1x]

Listen to what she says and simply do the opposite 🙂

[@roland7584]

But Cramer says the opposite a couple hours later. Now what?

[@michaelt2974]

Way to over analyze so you can have a job and pretend to know what will happen. This kind of talk just encourages people to trade in and out of stocks. If you are years away from retirement why care about the gyrations of the market.

[@user-bm2qy3te5d]

You will absolutely not get my NVDA, AMZN AAPL, MSFT, nor AVGO. Nice try lady. 😅

[@manuelfabbri7650]

Why is this person even invited to give an opinion when Sofi’s stock is in the crapper?

When someone looks that good, they can say anything and the world will let them.
