Stock market - how low will it go

Probably worth pointing out that some of us are a bit closer to the draw down than you young pups.

Not with COVID-19 you not!

Less not forget, retiring baby boomers over the next years will be pulling huge sums out of the stock market. This demographic are also the most indebted. Up to their eyeballs in debt, which is amazing given how many golden opportunities they had over the years.

About 6% reduction in my portfolio value since this time last month. Across four currencies and seven stock exchanges. To be expected, nothing to fuss about.

Tax free too, what's not to like?

If the tulip hits the fan proper this time then all the money will be devalued due to excessive printing: all cash savings accounts will be worth feck all as they won't be inflation indexed, from this point of view having money invested into anything (especially AMD shares) is a smart decision.

my stuff's gone up 8% and back down 7% in the last month.

Big fall in value this past week, that is the risk bit everyone keeps talking about.
I am buying steadily on the way down, it goes down another chunk I will buy another chunk, that is the buy low bit everyone keeps talking about.
Every chance this will blow itself out in a matter of months, certainty this is a kink in the path in 10 years.
A big crash is coming, no-one knows when, if you can't accept that, better chuck it all in 1% fixed interest.
Want to smooth the path a bit - Vanguard Lifestrategy 60/40 does all the hard work for you while still grabbing most of the shares return you need.

I am waiting for the US markets to have an almighty crash. Some of the stocks are at artificial highs. TSLA was just 220$ couple months ago and now 900$. Insane!

Bitcoin tumbles along with stocks amid coronavirus, questioning '''safe haven''' theory

I decided to liquidate half my equity trackers earlier this week and have the rest in a passive cautions fund. So plenty of cash to buy the future lows over the next few months. Corono Virus hitting the middle east now, Brexit negotiations, Trump lots of reasons for a wobble this year.
