At a very conceptual level, this is how I'm thinking about it.godawgst said:
I am gun shy about the QQQ's. I lived thru and watched it go down from it's high in 2000, and then took 15 years to get back to it.EwaDawg said:
When I see VYM and QQQ, I don't think oh that's too aggressive (QQQ) for a retiree or near retiree. I think abundance. Or why not both?godawgst said:QQQ is to tech heavy aggressive for me, although last ten years was absolutely place to be.
I guess what I am saying is I don't plan on being retired for only a year or two which is the amount of time that the djia has stayed down.
Split your retirement money into aggressive and safe buckets - if you want to maximize your return. Or not.
I will. -
I wonder with the state of the world and increasing reliance on a wide variety of platforms ... will tech ever see a day of reckoning? Will it ever crash again like it did in March of 2000? Can you see a world where tech is getting its ass handed to it and everybody else is doing ok?godawgst said:QQQ is to tech heavy aggressive for me, although last ten years was absolutely place to be.

The current composite of the QQQ (excluding Tesla) is made up of wide moat companies generating massive free cash flow and with sterling balance sheets. Google for instance has $140 billion in cash against $14 billion in long term debt.creepycoug said:

They generated $40 billion in free cash flow last year and will probably go north of $50 billion in 2021.
I hope the market takes a shit as Google's buybacks will increase future earnings and I can buy more when it goes on sale.
