What are the best strategies to protect my portfolio? I've heard that a downturn will devastate the financial market, so I'm concerned about my $200k stock portfolio.,

[Jennapeters]

The stock market is more volatile than ever. recently went "all in" and bought up $80k worth of ETF's & individual stocks, my aim is to take advantage of this S&P 500 downtrend, what could be accurate predictions moving forward? Open to chat.

Coming out of facing alot, I knew two things about the stock market: It caused the Great Depression, and the fastest way to make a million on the markets was to start with two million. And then the Great Recession happened only a few years later. So yeah, I wish someone had better explained it to me earlier in life. Having a good entry and exit strategy will make you succeed in the stock market.

5% annual return is easily thrown out there for illustrative purposes, but not so easy to achieve! Where do i put $500k cash reserve to keep cash safe for next 4 years? My concern is insolvency

This will end ugly you say. But every crash brings with it an equivalent market chance if you are early informed and equipped. I've seen folks amass up to $1m amid crash, and even pull it off easily in favorable conditions. Unequivocally, the bubble/collapse is getting somebody somewhere rich.

I'm no longer confident in my investment strategy due to the impending recession. I aim to reallocate my $250K portfolio. Is this the most effective strategy to do it right?

[PHILIPTURNEL]

The Market have been suffering over the past month, with all the three indexes recording losses in recent weeks. My $400, 000 portfolio is down by approximately 20%, any recommendations to scale up my returns before retirement will be highly appreciated.

So how exactly can we guard against the coming financial reset for 2024? Like what are really the best strategies to make our portfolio recession proof against the incoming financial reset? I'm very worried about my $110k stock portfolio.

I remember when I just got into crypto back in 2019 but later in 2020 I ended up selling it because I was dumb and I didn't understand it. I studied and learned and now I know how it works. Got back into crypto early in 2023 with 10k and I’m up with 128k in a short period of time .This comment serves as motivation for all those who have invested and continue to invest in cryptocurrencies with so many losses, do not give up, cryptocurrencies can change your life. Do your best to connect with the right people and you will surely see changes.

hold ..and go back in Oct...until then it will be a wild ride

[gcponte]

impressive the caliber of this guest...one of the most confused messages out there, , basically saying buy a bit of everything (wow, really high profile thoughts...), then saying the economy is doing ok and repeating the usual banal things Wall Street firms spread out to the incompetent mass of the investors to keep them buying (thin liquidity, positioning etc), but then recommends defensive stocks. I would place a rule: CNBC should show the track record of the calls of the guests or the perfromance of the funds they manage, if they manage any. Talk is cheap, repeating what Wall Sreet banks are saying is easy, let's show the facts, let's show the track record.

Dear CNBC, Please, more of Scott Wapner and Anastasia Amoroso, and much less of Joe Kernan. And not just because aesthetics will improve.

[Pearl.terry]

you work for 40yrs to have $1m in your retirement, meanwhile some people are putting just $10k into trading from just few months ago and now they are millionaires..,

[trentpetersen]

It’s the biggest everything bubble to ever exist.

[simpiwemaqwara]

S&P 500 is approaching 200MA and that spells trouble

[dgaz]

Freeze the market tomorrow, we're closed folks, thanks for stopping by.

[LumenMichaelOne]

1:48 ... and The Carry-Trade unwind. Overall though ... I think its just a Blip in the Matrix ... ... ... excuse me, I mean ... The Markets.

investors will make powell come out of his hole

[СейборЛамаре]

[CheveraChino]

August is always a month where we have turbulence. Its historical and valid, just like this blonde girl on tv. God bless America.
