Re: Housing prices
I was looking at current mortgage rates out of curiosity and was surprised to see they are almost still at all time lows. The only thing that makes sense to me is that these mortgages are just being arbitraged to the federal reserve since they know they are buying them. When i put in $350k house wit...

Re: Why isn't gold moving?
This must mean the PP's time to shine is soon. Sentiment is so low for gold and bonds. I too am having a harder time stomaching it while also just wanting to simplify. If you are still accumulating then just leave what you have in place and just put new contributions in preferred assets. That is my ...

Re: Minimizing counterparty risk
Most extreme example may be to use direct stock purchase plans if corporations offer it. I bet they outsource to a holding company if if they do offer it though. https://www.investopedia.com/terms/d/directstockpurchaseplan.asp Holding a Vanguard mutual fund at Vanguard does at least feel safer than ...

Re: I think it’s time to move into crypto
I sold all my gbtc on Friday. I made 30% or so profit.
With everything except btc going up last week something definitely felt broken with it.
It just felt like dogecoin run up could cause all of them to crash.
I don't know when I will get back in. Still hate the stuff but would love the profits.

Re: Coronavirus General Discussion
I think single dose is good enough for me.
Study shows at least 80% effective if not just as effective as two doses. It is harder to test how effective first dose would be after couple of months since most people would have received second dose.
