Current Market Conditions and What Stocks I Hold in My Portfolio

Current Market Conditions and Asset Allocation
November 19, 2019 | With the stock market at an all-time high and returning 24.5% so far this year, I wanted to bring up a question that I’ve been asked multiple times over the years: Should my portfolio ever be 100% allocated in the stock market?
Current Market Conditions and Value Investing
October 7, 2019 | I can’t say I’m surprised to read the skeptic view on value investing given it just had its 6th worst drawdown ever. However, something odd happened 4 weeks ago.

Talk To Chuck
January 23, 2024 | Charles Schwab’s former marketing campaign stands as one of the most effective financial ad campaigns of all time. But those days are over. Schwab’s net income last year fell 29% from a year prior, and the stock has gotten punished.

January 22, 2024 | American workers are getting antsy. About 85% of 1,000 U.S. professionals polled in a new LinkedIn survey say they’re considering changing jobs this year, up from 67% a year ago. About 90% of Gen Z workers — in their early and mid-20s — and 92% of millennials are considering a job change in 2024.
Coffee Powerhouse
January 21, 2024 | Two part-time baristas in Seattle meet at a dive bar, become best friends, move to Philadelphia, and open a one-off coffee shop in a run-down area of the city. That doesn’t sound like a path to a $900 million coffee brand, right?
