there are always some sizable rallies after a bloody sell-off.We could be

If you don't want to play these bear-market rallies, the best and perhaps
simplest thing to do is to stay with cash. Don't rush to buy dips before the
economy shows some sign of not getting worse.

1) There is a debate that in the long term the tax rate is rising.
2) A retiree might have other types of incomes, such as business income,
short term capital gain (I hope investors are smart enough to control
short term trading when they get old. People with 100k/yr income usually
have quite a sizable regular investment account by the time they
retire). |

发帖数: 165 | 4 Thursday, the IMF released a report named World Economic Outlook.
Its analytic chapter says that the recent spike in oil prices suggest
that the global oil market has entered a period of increased scarcity.
According to the report, the origins of this scarcity can be traced to
the tension between the upward shift in global oil consumption growth
due to fast-growing emerging market economies and supply constraints,
which have led to a downshift in oil supply growth.
The report notes that scarc... 阅读全帖 |

May I ask which asset class you rotated to? I am very wary of bond funds at
current prices.
I feel I am lucky that my 401K has a stable value fund paying close to 2%,
but I am afraid many others would have MM funds paying much less.
Even with a 2% yield, i am reluctant to keep a sizable allocation there, I wish my 401k had some type of dividend fund. |

Personally, I don't like intermediate or long bonds here, I am a little bit
wary of int'l funds in developed markets, europe or japan. Euro and other
currencies have rebounded nicely; but in spite of whatever mandate BOE is
supposed to have, I am afraid it will have to print more money one way or
the other, so I am wondering if Euro will turn south sooner or later.

发帖数: 1106 | 9 I think a sizable 401k plan usually offers an Institutional Class MM/stable
value fund that offers a better yield than one can get from a retail
investment account. Therefore, I can see why some want to trade in/out of
the market in a 401k since there is a ultra-low risk place one can park
large amount of cash and get a very competitive yield.

Wondering if there're any hassle free real state investment. I have some

seems like "Keep all cash" is safe, to lose. :-) |

Some back of envelop calculation-based answers:
1. $1450/mth rent, assume avg 1 month vacancy/repair cost, property tax/
insurance at $3000, your annual net operating income = $12,950
So your cap rate is only 6% (1290/215000). Fair, but not great.
2. Refinance after 10 years is a great idea, at the appropriate rate level,
for several benefits: a. you can cash out a sizable equity for other
investments (presumbly higher than 6% :). b. re-leverage investment in this
property. c. regain tax... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 1204 | 12 If your mortgage's interest rate is 4.5%, because it's tax-deductible, your
effective cost is only ~3%.
Do NOT prepay your mortgage!
Instead, invest your little extra money every month in index funds (pick
funds with no trading commission cost, super low expense, super efficient -
low turnover), don't overlook such little money each month, because after 10
-20 years, you will have sizable amount of investment, and over the long
term, market return should better double of 3%, if not more! |

, you will enjoy the lowest rate.
The most important thing is make sure a client has the power to review the
agent's service afterwards and that review will have a great impact on
broker's business. In that case, a broker will most likely keep their
promise. |

The banks? The President? Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac? Is it a secret

After half a decade of withering sales and slumping prices, there are strong
and diverse signs that the single-family housing market is poised for a
rebound.
In some metropolitan areas, the market has bottomed, with both sales and
prices on the rise and foreclosures on the decline.
This contrarian — and largely overlooked — thesis flies in the face of the
persistent gloom that has nagged the industry since 2007, when the subprime

The good news is that most government-backed home loans - those purchased
