It's episode 26 of Payne Points of Wealth and money is pouring into the stock market. Two weeks ago, we had over $58 billion go into exchange traded funds, mutual funds, and money jammed into energy as the animal spirits are alive and well. How do you play it? What do you do next? Greed is definitely seeping into the market, what are you doing with your portfolio right now that also speaks to greed. Are you being greedy? Are you being disciplined with your investment strategy? We're going to address all that on this episode so be sure to listen up!
You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in...There's so much opportunity in the market right now and a lot of you are just looking at the wrong thing. Isn't that the way it always is though, it's like whatever we anticipate the most and wherever the money's flowing the most at the same time tends to be where we get the least amount of return over time. It's the great irony of the stock market.
Warren Buffet is selling even more of this Apple stock, not buying into the hot tech trade. He's buying really exciting stocks like Chevron and Verizon, which are not only inexpensive right now, but also pay great dividends. Maybe he's lost his touch because obviously, all your money should be in electric vehicles, Bitcoin, SPACs, and anything growth-related.
This week on the tipping point: Giving in to greedWe have an old saying in our business that markets oscillate between fear and greed. With the stock market going up literally every day now you can kind of feel greed starting to seep in. As we know from managing money now for a collective 70 plus years, when it comes to your money, giving in to that desire of greed can end very badly. Gordon Gekko’s famous speech said greed is good but he lost everything and ended up going to jail, so maybe greed isn’t that good after all. Check out the episode where we talk about how greed can be very detrimental to your financial health specifically right now!
This week’s hidden facts of financeColorado topped $2 billion in marijuana sales through state dispensaries last year, putting it on par with Canada. They raised $387 million in taxes and fees. Virginia legalization appears imminent, which will bring the number of recreational pot States up to 16 but with those kinds of tax dollars, I think it's going to 50.
The first electric age effectively ended in 1915 after Henry Ford and Thomas Edison teamed up to take a crack at electric vehicles. The stately battery-powered sedans of the pre-World War One era appealed mostly to well-to-do urbanites. President Woodrow Wilson drove around the White House grounds and his Milburn Electric. Apparently, these vehicles were too slow, too heavy, and too costly. Check out the show for more hidden facts of finance!
