Another Inch of Progress
This is probably dull content. Sorry.
But today was a bit of a red day on the market. That means it’s time to push a few more bucks into index funds.
My investment mix yesterday was:
- Index Funds – 26% (goal 35%)
- Individual Stocks – 3% (goal 5%)
- High Div ETFs – 11% (goal 30%)
- Bond ETFs – 4% (goal 15%)
- Cash/Money Markets – 55% (goal 15%)
The latest mix is:
- Index Funds – 29% (goal 35%)
- Individual Stocks – 3% (goal 5%)
- High Div ETFs – 11% (goal 30%)
- Bond ETFs – 4% (goal 15%)
- Cash/Money Markets – 52% (goal 15%)
I’ve been watching videos that have reinforced my feeling that index funds (particularly VT, the US total market index), are just the safest long-term investment for most people. And I’m no different than most people.
Also bought some SCHD for some fun.
