Fundamentals don't change. They're consistent and back tested through the entire history of the stock market, every correction, every crash, every scenario.  It's common knowledge that a trade war isn't going to change up things worse than world wars, financial crisis, global pandemics, tech bubble, housing crisis.  It doesn't matter. You'd have to think the world was practically going end because of Trump. That's some serious TDS you got going on. 

Reballancing is a fundamental.  If you'd known about it you would have done it automatically.  It doesn't require guesswork or emotion.  When equities are down 11%+ and bonds didn't change its hard for me to imagine a portfolio that wouldn't be out of whack from its target percentages. You're missing out on adding to your number of shares by automatically selling high and buying low.  For example. But it's pretty clear you're not very well educated in finance, you should ask for your money back for your minor.  

I'm talking about the fundamentals of the economy you stupid blowhard   I'm not talking about the 100 year market return, jesus.

I know about rebalancing. I rebalanced last December.  Didn't want to in April.  I know you're a trained buy on the dip monkey who's read a couple of investing books and thinks he's smart.  You professed your admiration for Bill Miller for fücks sake

You rebalanced at the peak but decided you didn't feel like it when equities were down 25%+ plus from those highs?  HFS 

The emotion-investor just defeated the whole purpose of rebalancing. 

100% definitive proof you're a bumbling idiot.

I only look at rebalancing twice a year.  Otherwise set it and forget it.  Sound long term investing principle.

Under extreme circumstances I will look at buying the dip.  Thought about it here, decided not to as I thought we would go much lower.  Got the TACO trade wrong, oh well.  I didn't lose any money.

So tell me, you watch your allocations every day and rebalance anytime they deviate?  How many times a year do you rebalance?

I'd suggest setting a target percentage like 5% max for your allocations to be off so you don't miss out if the market becomes volatile like it has been the past couple of months.  

I've rebalanced 3 times during this little "trade war" so far.  The volatility provided a nice little opportunity to increase my number of shares all around.  And I posted about it numerous times, you just dont listen because you're an emotional investor.   

And you did lose money....compared to me.

If a ruling isn't in by Monday, I might buy a couple 100 GGLS to hedge.

I might liquidate the little remaining I have left.  The article doesn't do it justice, it's not just the search monopoly, it's their algorithms and manipulating its users.  They really are the evil empire. Then again I have a bunch of MSFT sitting around somewhere too.  We let big tech get too big and too powerful.

I agree, & over the years, I've seen many postings by very smart/articulate people stating how Amazon does the same type of things to assure they show up 1st in search.

Problem is, the regulatory groups don't punish them severely enough when they're caught. Goldman Sachs is a perfect example. Those shysters got caught red handed some years ago. They were telling half their whale clients to go long a certain equity, & telling the other half to short it. This resulted in huge gains for the firm. The SEC fines them 10 million, slaps them lightly across the wrist, and tells them never to do this again. LMAO

I went from a loss of around 3K on Google a month or two ago, to gains of almost 12 K. Problem is, it's in a taxable account and for reasons I won't go into, I can't afford 12 K in ST capital gains this year. That's why I'll be buying Direxion Daily GOOGL Bear 1X to protect my gains, instead of selling.

Good idea, then tax harvest whichever is down year end.  Like you Im stuck with MSFT in a taxable account. AMZN and GOOG are in a retirement though and I still have shares from early 2000s but I've sold 85% plus the past several years.  I feel better letting index funds do the heavy lifting in retirement.

The regulatory groups work for the enemy. It's a big club, and we ain't in it.
