Crypto investment requires a thoughtful approach, considering factors like exchange types, market volatility, and the distinction between coins and tokens. One must navigate through scarce quality information and understand the significance of market capitalization over mere price tags. Emphasizing self-custody, the importance of a diverse portfolio, and aligning investments with personal time horizons are key. Moreover, crypto offers a unique hedge against traditional financial systems, but it's crucial to stay vigilant ensuring secure and informed investment decisions..managed to grow a nest egg of around 100k to a decent 432k in the space of a few months... At the heart of this evolution is Eugenia Eiland, whose deep understanding of both cryptocurrency and traditional trading has been instrumental.

You went a little too fast on how to hedge with option. Can you make videos how to do that? How did you pick the strike price? Shouldn't we pick a date further out? Or maybe that's not possible? Why hedge SPY only?

[@mathewwilson9776]

Those questions depend on what you want. You are simply buying insurance, so it is up to you to decide what premium you are comfortable with and what degree of protection you seek. SPY is now at 605. Suppose I want to protect that over the next year. I see that there is a 605 Put option expiring in Dec 2025 trading for $29, which is 4.8%. So I can protect 100 shares of SPY and ensure that the most I can lose over the next year is 4.8%. Is that what you want? Are you okay with that price? If you want to be insured less time, say through June 2025, then it is cheaper obviously, only 3.3%, but you will then have to roll the put in 6 months if you still want protection, potentially at a higher implied volatility if markets have already started to correct, etc. Exact same mindset as when you purchase ordinary insurance.

[@fepeerreview3150]

I second this.

[@reneebuffington2014]

Also you must understand in the short term if you buy put contracts on SPY for example, you will be watching the value of those contracts go down, down exponentially when SPY goes up. But if SPY takes a nosedive your puts will pay off big. I bought them at 520 strike when SPY was at $575. Look for books about hedging with put options because there’s a lot of decisions and they’re all very personal.

[@mathewwilson9776]

As for why only SPY. Implied volatility is lower for SPY than for individual names, so the premium is lower. If you wanted to protect 100 shares of Microsoft through Dec 2025, then implied volatility would be 24% (vs SPY's 16%) so the premium you would have to pay is around 8%. I don't know about you, but I find it pointless to hedge. I don't have holdings trading at 30-50x earnings and if something I hold drops, I want to be taking advantage and buying, as opposed to wasting money on puts.

[@PonderDuke]

Buying a put, let's say at strike 605, which you pay a premium for, means that if the price on expiration is below 605, the seller of the put has to buy your 100 shares at a price of 605 from you. So it's insurance for if the price drops below 605. If the price goes higher you still have your shares and ride along with the profits. The premium is paid and "lost" but you buy your safety. And insurance fee basically. You do have to repeat it every year if you want to stay "safe" like that. That's what they mean by roll it out. Your insurance expires so you have to buy a new one if you want. At a price that is smart at that point in time. If the price dropped below 605 you will have 60500 in cash and can decide what to do with it. But are you willing to pay 28.18 * 100 = 2818 to insure 60500 for one year? And the next year?

Hi Sven, I’ve noticed your continued criticism of index funds like the S&P 500. I agree it’s overpriced and could see a correction, but I think hedging might not be the best solution. It’s expensive, complicated, and tends to lower long-term returns, especially for the average investor. Why not focus on diversification instead? By spreading investments across different regions and asset classes, you can reduce risk and still preserve and grow capital over the long term. It’s simpler, cheaper, and more effective than hedging. Geographic and asset class diversification, in particular, can help balance out the risks of being concentrated in one market like the S&P 500. In conclusion, you continue to bring up a Portfolio design issue, not a passive investment issue.

A company with high ratios may take years to recover

[@Hollyarmes]

Very nice job covering the basics. I am sharing this not to brag but to show what’s possible. I’m retired and I have 2 separate portfolios. One is a long term growth dividend portfolio of stocks where i sell covered calls strategically and my 2nd portfolio is the Crypto trading strategy where its all about income. This year I am on pace to make $120K in realized options profits and around $730K in crypto profit... What is great is that my long-term portfolio is still up significantly as well. As such, it’s possible to generate excellent income but still have a total return perspective. ...Amidst this, the insights of a knowledgeable guide like that of Laura Brockman can be crucial. Her expertise in navigating the nuances of trading has been the key for Me understanding and making the most of these emerging financial trends.

One thing I know for certain is crypto is here to stay, the only thing that leaves is the people who don't manage their risk. Manage that, or the market will manage it for you. With the right strategies you will survive.

The market has gone berserk! whether you're a newbie or a veteran trader, everyone needs a sort of coach at some point to thrive forward.

[@coindrop]

I don't think the average investor should start shorting the market..

[@bpurkapi]

Agree with you. They'd be better off just putting more in high yield savings accounts, money market funds, and short-term treasuries. You can do SGOV for around 4.5%.

[@faridoon15]

This might be a dumb question but if you own a stock which is limited in numbers, there is no dilution, wouldn't that mean its price increases against inflation? So if we get 20% inflation, isn't that stocks rising 20%? Such that if you owned a stock for shillings in the UK in the 1920s, that would be valued in ££ now.

[@Value-Investing]

depends how the business is manages with inflation and pricing

[@Felix-i9k]

Very interesting, actually, very good food for thought! Thank You!

Cash or treasury bonds?

[@eddiealfano]

If S&P was around 1500 in 2007 and it historically earns a 10-percent return each year, you'd expect it to double every 7 or 8 years. Which would mean you'd expect it to double by 2015 (3,000) and then again by 2023 (6,000). So we're right where you'd expect us to be, historically.

[@bpurkapi]

Yes. There is this thing called productivity improvements and population growth that the market tends to reflect. Until 1992 many markets were completely closed (communism/distrust of former colonial powers). They gradually opened and now we have most of the world engaging in trade and business with faster and easier access. The markets would go even higher if several countries had better laws around trading.

[@lucschoonen]

what I don't understand is, why is the sp500 so high, when bonds give 4,4% yield... the relative valuation of stocks vs bonds doesn't make sense to me

[@davidpratr]

I don’t get why a 7% in the market implies PER of 15 in valuation. Could you explain those mechanics slowly in another video ?

[@christian-s1i1w]

The idea is this: a company earning the same every year trading at a p/e of 15 has a ratio of market cap to earnings of 15, so that the earnings are 1/15 = 7% of the market cap every year; as an owner of the business, your yearly return is the business' earnings, so your return is roughly 7% per year.

[@davidpratr]

@@christian-s1i1w still I don't get it. If the PER is 15 it means one is paying 15 times the earnings but it's not related to the market cap, isn't it? the PER of 30 would imply by the same rule a 3% per year, which doesn't make sense because the per 30 means that the company is more valued because the % per year should be higher...

[@christian-s1i1w]

@@davidpratr Hello again. The P/E-ratio is defined as the price per share divided by the company's earnings per share. If you multiply the numerator and denominator by the number of shares, you arrive at the market cap divided by the company's earnings. So P/E-ratio = market cap / earnings. It is correct that a P/E-ratio of 33 would imply a return of 3% per year. The inverse relationship between the P/E-ratio and the implied return is because when you pay more up front, your return will be lower.

[@Duuj1]

Hi Sven, love your videos. I have been following your prospective for over 2 years. I have a question for you. It's OK if you don't awnser since your youtube channel has provided me with slot of value. Here it goes. ... let's say you have 25% in short term us treasury bonds , can't you just buy SQQQ with 10% and keep 15% in SGOV? since sqqq doesn't have an expiration date like put options and no theta decay ?

[@Jordan8568-l4u]

Well all i know is that you cannot go wrong taking profit at near high. No one ever went broke taking a ~20% profit. It's best if you consult with a fiduciary advisor in situations like this so you can make informed decisions.

[@RayaMarcus]

That's a great analogy and I love the insight. Professionals could make a really big difference in investing, and I think everyone should have one. There are aspects of market trend that is difficult for the untrained eyes to see.

What about the money printing Sven? What makes you think there will be a huge drop in the market when there's more and more money going around and ease of investing with fee free trading like Robinhood? I don't think it's valid to use the 1929 recession as an example as that was more a regulatory issue and immaturity in the markets.

[@TheRealSlobo]

Sven Brate..I live in chicago and there is something you are not considering here..Prices in USA jumped from 50% in some sectors to 200% in others..For example some insurances jumped 300% and TRUST ME in this crazy country nothing stops..People swallowed the inflation and now the prices are high but people got huge salary bumps..Also there is a record amount of cash on the side in money accounts..They will see that there will be no crush and will probably jump in. People took this inflation really nicely..And we are going into no deflation which means the market only adjusted for deflation and people got insane pay raises.I honestly dont think shit is going down..and even if it does it will only be technical correction of maybe 10-20-% but i also see a very fast V shape recovery since there are a lot of people holding cash..

[@HS-PGA]

I’m no genius but if a genius increases his cash to 28% so will I and maybe even a little more to 33% .

I agree with you. As an early investor in NVDA, AVGO, ANSS, and PLTR, my financial advisor's advice was incredibly helpful. Over the past 7 years, she has helped me find stocks that did 10x multiple times. With her help, I've grown my portfolio to over a million dollars.

[@sooffss]

that's impressive!, I could really use the expertise of this advisors , my portfolio has been down bad....who’s the person guiding you?

Certainly, there are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’Eleanor Bonnici Deskin’’ for about two years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.

It's only a bubble, if it bursts! :) Sven, did you know, that your (and mine) approach is the same as the one from Rocky Balboa: "It ain't about how hard you can hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep movin' forward. How much you can take and keep movin' forward. That's how winnin' is done!".

The message is great Sven! I got maybe a stupid question, doesn't/shouldn't PE ratios rise with inflation -and therefore be higher than the traditional historical average? And maybe a possible timing of a crash would be towards the 2nd half of Trumps presidency up towards the end? I consider it likely.

[@cdshannon23]

The 5-year average of tech P/E range from 38… that’s tech specifically who has a high P/E… for the entirety of the economy be 38…. Is alarming. Tech P/E is trading around 50 right now… That’s high growth… Maybe it’s priced in that AI will control the entire economy but idk… It’s hard to see the growth P/E to match the size of the companies already. Will we have a 4 or 5 trillion company with AI?

[@davidbrayshaw3529]

The question now is what is the new normal for P.E. ratios? I agree with your assertion that they're not going back to 15, courtesy of all the printed money that's hit the market in the last few years. But I can't see them staying where they are, either. They are way too high, despite the capital injection.
