Buying stocks is buying into a highly liquid asset *usually*. Not only is it a prudent way of investing your hard earned income, it also carries with it many benefits. Having a lot of assets in a portfolio can make it easier to get loans at good rates, give you a lot of investing options, and until you actually realize gains, a good way to manage taxes.

Stocks are good, very good, that’s why we blog about them at The Weekly Marketeer.

Cheers. The Marketeer.

Lets not forget when it comes to the stock market, you dont actually lose money unless you sell and realize the loss. Your portfolio is simply valued less, but it if you left your money in the stock market you know it came back, not all the way yet but almost. If you know the history of the stock market then you know this happens all the time and that overall the stock market makes money, you just have to think long term.

We invested for the long-term based on fundamental trends. Our strategy is three things: dividend paying stocks, individual chinese companies, and gold. While I get the ‘oh no’ twinge looking at short term performance, I remind myself that I’m in this for 10 years minimum. Nice reminder.

MN I love seeing your thought processes on paper and I think you nailed it, although I don’t think I would be gutsy enough to say that the US stock market will forever be a good investment.
