It’s about how people blindly put all their money into index funds thinking it's the safest bet, but it’s not always as foolproof as it sounds

[@Franky-j6e]

Yeah, I’ve heard bits and pieces. I think the main issue is that people don’t realize how much risk they’re actually taking on. When you put everything into something like the S&P 500, you’re heavily exposed to the biggest companies, and if they underperform or the market tanks, your whole portfolio takes a hit.

[@Larry1-pl2wq]

Exactly. And people forget that the S&P 500 is cap-weighted. That means a handful of the biggest companies-like the tech giants-have an outsized influence on performance. If they’re struggling, it drags the whole thing down. We’ve seen that recently with market volatility tied to tech sector layoffs and interest rate hikes

[@roseyfischer]

Right, and the other problem is the false sense of security. The S&P 500 has done well over time, but that doesn’t mean it’s a guaranteed win every year. A lot of retirees I know thought they’d be set by just riding it out, but now they’re scrambling because the market hasn’t performed like they expected.

[@Johnwhite-c3n]

And that’s the thing, isn’t it? It’s not that index funds are bad-they’re a great tool-but they’re not a one-size-fits-all solution. You need balance, diversification, and a strategy that matches your goals and timeline. Blindly following the S&P 500 is how people end up in trouble, especially when they’re close to or in retirement.

VGT is an excellent portfolio addition, but relying solely on it for retirement may not be optimal.

I am a Ph.D. student in the field of finance. Two things that I think are missing here is: 1) The P/E ratio of the index might be high right now, but research has shown that one should look at the Forward P/E ratio to judge over/undervaluation. 2) The index might have returned 10% historically before fees, but people forget it is a price index, not performance index. The S&P 500 performance does not include dividends, so the true performance is even higher. Add some benefit from Synthetic Replication and you might have gotten around 11%, making quite some difference over a long horizon.

You'd feel a drop in higher weighted companies as a temporary dip, and then it would be readjusted next quarter to account for the loss in value. That's the whole point of index funds; they are constantly adjusted to get rid of the lower performing stocks. The dip in price would just mean shares cost less until the readjustment, meaning you can buy more before the index corrects itself and picks up again. Over time, the S&P500 always grows.

In the long run, investing in S&P 500 is a safe bet because you're placing a bet on the prosperity of American companies. In the next 30 years, you'll get a reasonable return. Additionally, the S&P 500 is regularly updated to rightly reflect the weight of each company.

I used to "buy and hold" into a diversified portfolio of about a dozen ETF's because I was convinced that trading would destroy my account (so I was told..). The problem with this strategy is if the market is high, you should sell and not DCA as risk is increased, dividends decrease, and returns are decreased. When I buy I wait for a low (52 week low, 26 week low, etc) and when it reaches the same weekly high I sell and put that idle money in Money Market Funds and wait for another X week low to buy in again. If someone is all in DCA in VTI as example and the market is high and then crashes 10% plus then all progressed is wiped out for a few months/years. I will always cycle my ETF's and buy low and sell high as it's superior to buy and hold DCA.

Interesting video! I’ve been investing in S&P 500 index funds for a while now, but with the market getting more volatile and big players dominating the index, I’m starting to wonder if that’s the best move.

Don't forget that most people earn money through a 9 to 5 job, plus the accrued debt (credit card, mortgage, car loan and student loan). In a recession, layoffs happen. People simultaneously lose their income and still have to pay debt. A recession will hurt those who are living paycheck to paycheck, without an emergency fund big enough to survive years of economic crisis. 2020 stimulus checks may not come to the people.

The solution is to diversify even more by investing in a global ETF, instead of betting on the continued success of a single market (especially one dominated by a few - possibly overvalued - behemoths from the same sector).

I used to think like that. But since a few years I stopped buying non US etfs.

My advice to everyone is this : if you want to grow big this year especially in your finances. Be willing to make investments. Saving is great but investing puts you on a pedestal where you wouldnt have to worry about savings as you do now. With Loraine Souvenir, my portolio is doing really great and im proud of the decisions i made last year.

It's truly refreshing to see a comment about Loraine Souvenir. I've also had the pleasure of working with her for several months after discovering more about her online. She has a knack for simplifying complex issues, whether it's a market surge or decline. Her approach consistently keeps you ahead of the curve. I'd call her a guru, for sure

The market can be right and the concentration in top companies be justifiable. I honestly believe these companies are the ones most likely to benefit from AI. Nvidia is a clear example.

Index Funds and ETFs are great for the average joe investor for their 401k or IRA. Now more than ever ppl realize they can't make it off SS from the govt alone. They have to invest for their retirement. No easier way of doing this than just investing in the S&P 500. More and more young ppl are investing too. Not many really want to be a day trader or sit their and investigate all the stocks. This is just the easiest and most practical way of getting into investing for your future
