Which is insane. CDOs were crazy, but fucking index funds is batshit insane levels of evil. Not just corruption, but all out treason.
Yeah, I’ve been a fan of index investing for a while, but have become very sceptical of the sp500, nasdaq 100, etc. as valuations have become more concentrated.
When so few assets make up such a large portion of the index I think it loses its diversification advantages.
This is why I use international index funds primarily. Small cap is also a solid hedge
I think the US indexes still make up 15% of my portfolio.
AI is making stocks go up, so your saving can go bye bye
