Tech earning bubble

the best for a 20 year play is real estate. you buy homes and rent them out. you make a little money on each home every month than sell it in 20 years and make a killing.

Quote from tradingjournals:

Why don't we look at asset classes, and identify where the money could go?

1. Interest on cash
2. Bonds
3. Gold and metals
4. Commodities
5. Stocks
6. Physical world: real-estate
7. Carry trade in currencies
8. Derivatives.

Could we complete the list and analyze which are relatively better?

A pretty naive bet. You think real estate is "risk free"?
 
i come from a family who is rich from owning rental properties. they collect money monthly but you need to own a bunch for it to work right. i know many people who are millionaires because of equality in rental homes they bought 20 years ago.

i only said that was my best choice out of all those options. the fed can do a lot of damage to any of those other options in the short term.

I'm not involved in real estate but it is hard to imagine that owning rental properties is anything other than a good investment from here on, as long as your/their capital/debt situation doesn't force selling in another meltdown situation.

Risk free! Why? You don't actually think you have to do silly things like property maintenance, deal with crazy tenants, etc...do you?
 
you need to own a bunch of properties to control a bad month at one property. when you own enough properties overtime basic maintenance cost is quite low. there are a lot of individuals who are self employed and only charge hourly labor cost its not like a contractor walking in your home charging you 5x the price. they are very happy to get your check and continue a relationship with you too.
also crazy tenants happen sometimes but some people are happy with making a good living and having a flexible lifestyle. i know people in this business and they seem to do well overtime.

Just a update on ADI:

ADI is down over 7% today after the earning announcement to $46.20 (from $50). I believe it just started. They had bad Q reports for a year and as their report says next Q will be down 10% from this Q. The downtrend just started and I believe if the market is fair even considering QE continuation, we might see ADI at $35 soon. So it is a good stock stock to short. and if you were looking for a confirmation, here it is. You are not shorting at top. You will be shorting after selloff and bad earning confirmation.

Your post about the short was exactly at the bottom!

Your ADI stock that you have been saying is heading down was UP today when the market is down.

So your weak stock was up in a down market. Does it make sense to you?
