There are many other interesting stocks in many industries that you might follow. You don't have to act on every forecast, so I'll suggest that you work with a financial advisor who can help you choose the best times to purchase and sell the shares or ETFs you want to acquire.
I agree, that's the more reason I prefer my day to day investment decisions being guided by an advisor seeing that their entire skillset is built around going long and short at the same time both employing risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying off risk as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, coupled with the exclusive information/analysis they have, it's near impossible to not out-perform, been using my advisor for over 2years+ and I've netted over 2.8million.

I agree with Warren Buffet. A blend of different ETFs is my favorite way of investing. For example, you could have some covered call etfs for dividends and other etf`s for growth. A combination such as : JEPI , DIVO , QYLD, SCHD and JEPQ. You have to combine them according to your own personal situation. I tallied my dividends for the previous year; $102k. Blessed, grateful, disciplined and focused.
Consistently investing in high quality dividend paying ETFs & stocks over the long term is a relatively easy strategy to create generational wealth. My "boring" ETF's portfolio paid me over $4,000 in dividends last month
Bear and bull markets offer great opportunities. I used to discredit people who made money in bear markets until I did it myself. The US stock market is currently experiencing a long bearish season but if you zoom out it's actually a bull run as the market always comes around, so it's understandable that people are panicking. However, there are opportunities if you know where to look. With the help of an investment advisor, I made over $250k in profit last year.

The S&P 500 finished down 20% in 2022. This means long term investors have a great starting point in 2023. Here are 4 very popular ETF’s: $VOO- S&P 500 fund $VTI- Total US stock market $QQQ- High growth, tech $SCHD- Growth + Dividends| I just tallied my dividends for the year;$167k Blessed and grateful, disciplined and focused.
My "boring" index funds just paid me over $6,000 in dividends last month. This is money that i can choose to spend without having to sell any of my shares. But for now i have it all set to reinvest to buy me even more index funds.
Anyone have recommendations for a reliable monthly investment? I hope to ultimately supplement my income from work with a monthly income from investments. I will still make long-term investments, but it would be wonderful to have a little additional money each month.
Even if we are not accustomed to such volatile markets with a little carnage, the widespread frenzy and worry are understandable given that the US Stock Market has been on its longest bull run in history. However, there are opportunities everywhere if you know where to look; with the help of an investment advisor whom helped diversify my portfolio I netted over $260k in profits the previous year.
Amazing video, A friend of mine referred me to a financial adviser sometime ago and we got to talking about investment and money. I started investing with $150k and in the first 2 months, my portfolio was reading $274,800. Crazy right!, I decided to reinvest my profit and get more interesting. For over a year we have been working together making consistent profit just bought my second home 2 weeks ago and care for my family.

I’ve been debating this for years ! I currently do SCHD & SCHG. Seems to work well and together better than VOO. I may purchase VOO in separate account.
Same. I've backtested SCHD+SCHG performance and it clearly outperformed VOO and SPY. I think this combination alone is enough to cover the overall market.
Hey Marcos, just wanted to visit this video again and congratulate you on its success. 156 comments on it and going strong. You are an inspiration! Keep up the great work.👍🏻✨🏆🤓🙏🏻
Remember VOO also increasing dividend. But 100k in SCHD while in my 30s 40s 50s working years and miss that growth ? No. wait for retirement when you double or triple your 100k then sell your gain for 100k invested dividends
If you had 100k with a old employer, would you move that to a new 401k or Brokerage account or Roth IRA? Don't think I can get ETF's like SCHD rolling it to a 401k and I'd like to load up most of it on SCHD and few others.
I am doing 1/2 and 1/2 VOO and SCHD. Seems like good diversification among already diversified ETFS. The most important thing is that you’re simply investing regularly.
I like the 50/50 split between SCHD & VOO! Great diversification, returns, low expenses, and a regular investing schedule will 100% make or break this portfolio in the long run.
Honestly, SCHD has more upside potential in my opinion next year due to interest rates falling and maybe a move toward investors looking for a good yield in dividend markets. However, I always buy VOO every week regardless of what economic environment we’re in.
SCHD will always in my opinion be more stable in a bear market than VOO. Dividend stocks in general are always a save play in recessionary environments and provide a higher dividend yield than ordinary blue chip stocks.
No cons in my opinion. I have VOO and SCHD in a brokerage account and VTI in a 401k due to that being only the best etf I could find in the 401k. You’ll be very diversified with the sp500 in the 401k and have excellent market returns. With SCHD in the Ira you won’t be taxed on the returns or dividends due to the tax efficiency of the Roth. Overall a great way to diversify your overall portfolio in both ETFs!
Marcos would you do a video on FTEC and explain what are the pros and cons of FTEC. It has had amazing returns in the last five years! Better returns than VOO. 😊
That’s a good place to start. However, remember that this is goal dependent. In reality you’re already behind so increasing that to at least maxing your Roth IRA (6500 a year) which is about 540$ a month. As long as you start and remain consistent and stay away from super volatile assets you should be ok.
@@mikell.6064Those are wise words. So many people jump into wildly volatile assets without understanding the underlying businesses. That’s why a diversified etf like VOO or VTI makes sense: you don’t overthink it and put too much into one sector.
The investing at intervals over time is key, in my opinion: this is not advice. VTI is a diversified ETF with exposure to all sectors and sizes. The others are bets on growth or dividends - no way to know which of those strategies will outperform. VOO or VTI alone or combined with those other ETFs will keep you from going big into some crazy stocks or assets where you can lose big: that’s why diversification is key - you just don’t want to lose! It’s a good question, and the key I have found is consistent investment through thick and thin - especially thin when everyone gets scared and prices are low. Low stock prices are a gift to the long term investor. Keep consistent and starting is the key. Getting started at 28 is better than 38 or 48, so don’t be discouraged. You have a long runway ahead of you!! 😃🏆👍🏻
I will be forever grateful to you, you changed my whole life and I will continue to preach on your behalf for the whole world to hear you saved me from huge financial debt with just a small investment, thank you Mrs Maria Reyes.
I invest with Mrs Maria Reyes too, she charges a 20%commission on profit made after every trading session which is fair compare to the effort she put in to make huge profits.
As a first time investor I started trading with her, with just a thousand bucks. my portfolio is worth much more that now within just weeks of trading with her.

. I’ve been forced to find additional sources of income as I got retrenched. I barely have time to continue trading and watch my investments since I had my second daughter. Do you think I should take a break for a while from the market and focus on other things or return whenever I have free time or is it a continuous process? Thanks...

fxaix and schd.
What percent of each 50/50?
Both amazing ETFs
100$k in schd 5 years ago would pay much higher dividends than 100k in voo 5 years ago
i have schd and jepi
Both great dividend ETFs !

If this was in a 401(k) then the best would be to put into a Rollover IRA. Then you can invest in SCHD or any other ETF you would like.

Do you suggest buying SCHD and VOO right now even though their prices are high and recession may be coming??
Honestly, SCHD has more upside potential in my opinion next year due to interest rates falling and maybe a move toward investors looking for a good yield in dividend markets. However, I always buy VOO every week regardless of what economic environment we’re in.
Schd seems to be more stable during a bear. Mentally that feels a lot better than the big dips like right now.
SCHD will always in my opinion be more stable in a bear market than VOO. Dividend stocks in general are always a save play in recessionary environments and provide a higher dividend yield than ordinary blue chip stocks.
I invest in both of them in my portfolio

I’ll keep this in mind for a future video!
Good video. Keep up the good work.
If i got one seperate account tracking sp500 (tradional 401k) and another to do schd (roth ira) whats the pro and cons to this method?
No cons in my opinion. I have VOO and SCHD in a brokerage account and VTI in a 401k due to that being only the best etf I could find in the 401k.

Both are great combos to eachother!
my highest amount is in voo, 2nd highest is schd.
