    The anticipated rise in Bitcoin's value and its potential widespread adoption mark a transformative moment in the financial sector, driven by the expected approval of Bitcoin ETFs and increasing interest from nation-states. This shift indicates a significant influx of institutional investment into Bitcoin, positioning it as a crucial asset for wealth preservation and an alternative to traditional fiat currencies. For investors, this represents an opportunity to diversify portfolios and capitalize on the digital economy's growth.

      I wholeheartedly concur, which is why I like giving an investing coach responsibility for making everyday decisions. Given their specialized knowledge and study, as well as the fact that every one of their skills is aimed on leveraging risk for its asymmetrical potential and limiting it as a buffer against certain unfavorable turns, if is practically impossible for them to underperform.

    I agree that many people are considering NVDA as the "Stock of the year." However, I'm curious about which stocks could potentially become the next META in terms of growth over the next decade. I've allocated $200k for investment, aiming to retire comfortably.

    With the approval of bitcoin ETFs, it's widely expected that the price of bitcoin will soar past $100k. I'd be remiss not to capitalize on this opportunity immediately. I'm eager to invest my $500k in cash savings, which currently languish in the face of inflation. However, I'm concerned: is it perhaps a bit late to maximize profits at this juncture?

      The best course of action if you lack market knowledge is to ask a consultant or investing coach for guidance or assistance.

      The market is not necessarily a rollercoaster if you know your way around the market, there are various opportunities in the present market to accrue good profit, If you are not too savvy with the market, just buy and hold on strong companies with good earnings, or consult with advisors on ETFs and actively managed funds. that’s what works for my spouse and I.

      The truth is that this is really not as difficult as many people presume it to be.

      Mutual funds can be preferable over ETFs in scenarios where you value professional management, want automatic reinvestment of dividends, or seek the ability to make frequent, smaller investments through features like automatic investment plans. Additionally, if you prioritize simplicity and don't plan on trading frequently, the convenience of mutual funds might outweigh their higher fees.

    1. ETFs are just more liquid meaning you can buy or sell it during market hours. They act like stocks.
    2. Mutual Funds are only once a day and one price a day (usually after the market close) and usually require funds to be added regularly.
    3. Both can either be passive or active, which impacts fees.

    • @costco_pizza
      @costco_pizza Před 10 měsíci +3

      And on point number 1, if you are dollar cost averaging on a particular interval into ETFs, you will need to actually log into your account during trading hours and make the purchase. With mutual funds you can set purchases on autopilot (for that one price mentioned in point number 2) and forget about it. So choose the right vehicle based on your needs and preferences. If you don't see yourself buying on routine intervals and are planning to lump sum into the market, sometimes an ETF can be preferred.

    I wanted to invest 2/3's of my HSA money before I retired, so I asked my financial guys what I should invest it in. At first, they wanted to make sure I really wanted to do that and I told them that I did because I had a large amount of money that wasn't earning anything in the cash account. So they told me to invest it in a specific ETF which I did. Fast forward 7 years later and I'm very glad I made that decision because the money has grown a lot and it is so nice to have a bucket of money for medical/dental in retirement. So far I haven't had to use any of the ETF money, so I'm just letting it ride and I feel more secure knowing it is there in case I need it.

      Warren Buffet talked about passive index funds beating the vast majority of actively managed funds. They can run all their calculations and discuss and hem and haw over their decisions, but you can get just as good if not better results just investing on a set schedule in a good quality index fund or ETF. Decide which sector of the market you want to invest in and stop worrying about it. Time in the market is far more important than timing the market, although once in a while, blatant opportunities present themselves. I managed to catch the 2008/2009 market at the very bottom, and the COVID scare and whatever the heck happened on about October 23rd last year.

      My only problem with ETFs (at least in regards to Vanguard) is that you can't invest automatically into them. So if you have a Roth IRA with Vanguard, and you have an automatic deposit every month, then you have to go into your account each month and buy your ETFs so the money is actually invested. Their mutual funds allow you to invest into them automatically.
      All that said, I chose to invest in ETFs and make the extra effort, to save on fees. But for many people the convenience of set-and-forget is probably worth going with Mutual Funds.

    ETFs and Mutual Funds are just different wrappers intended to hold positions. Only difference is the way they trade. Both can be either active or passive in the underlying investment and fees differ on an individual basis. As an investor it’s important to understand first, what is the underlying fund goals and what it is tracking, etc. Or what the fund manager is using for the selection process. Second, what am I being charged in fees. Everything has an expensive ratio and sometimes a load fee or spread cost in buying/selling. It pays to be an educated investor, buy and hold, day trading is not investing.

    My ETFs: SVOL, JEPI, QYLD, RYLD pays me $1100 monthly dividends. ETFs are less expensive to own than mutual funds. Plus, they trade continuously throughout exchange hours, and such flexibility may matter to certain investors. ETFs also can result in lower taxes from capital gains since they're a passive security that tracks an index.
    ETFs, which are passively managed, tend to have significantly lower expense ratios than actively managed mutual funds. What drives up a mutual fund's expense ratio? Costs such as a management fee, fund accounting and trading expenses, and load fees related to their sale and distribution.

    Concerning Passive mutual funds, they are less liquid than ETFs but that doesn't make a difference since you should use them for buy and hold anyway. The advantage with ETFs is that there price is low so it is easier to dollar cost average. Though some passive mutual funds provide fractional shares.

      An index fund nor a mutual fund is bought and sold at the close of market. You initiate a sale and whatever the price goes to at the end of that day is what you get.
      An ETF price is updated on a minute by minute basis when the market is open. You can therefore sell at 9:05am, then re-buy at 10:51am etc. It’s much better suited to people who like to trade multiple times per day.

    Great advice on ETF’s! ETF’s should be long-term investments where you buy and hold. I would recommend investing in one ETF on a regular basis. I’ve seen people buy multiple ETF’s which literally track the same thing which isn’t diversifying your portfolio. Buy an ETF for example that tracks the S&P 500 where you’d put in xUSD amount each month and hold (leave alone) for 20+ years. You’ll see market crashes and booms in that time period for sure, but stay strong and hold until you’re ready for retirement/estate planning etc.
    Moreover, ETF’s are cheaper and easier to invest in then mutual funds. E.g. you can invest in an ETF yourself without any broker/financial advisor. No worries about brokerage fees/commission or other fees usually associated with Mutual Funds.

    Financial advisers always have access to better and new mutual funds than direct investment mutual funds. However I use both for different accounts.
