An interesting observation, i can see a lot of similarities between love and investing. Perhaps our personalities are good at investing. And we can see rewards from investing financially as well as investing in love as long as a person doesn't get too focused on 1 more than the other they could have a balanced happy life! I think there is a lot to be said for choosing the right stock/partner as well as regularly investing and putting some more money and time in to see rewards as you go through life.   Riding through and minor ups and downs or situational dips. As well as knowing when you've made a bad choice and it's time to get out and sell/leave.

I choose to ride it out, in both investing and in love. I think there is also something to be said about choosing the right person and the rights stocks! There are also times to admit when you made a bad bad choice and that's it's time to get out to be able to move in to making a better one.

my morning coffee!!  I love every sip

2025 has been a learning journey for me. 2026 id be happy with anything over 5% return!

my return range ended up being in the red overall, July seemed to be the lowest month to pull down the numbers overall. I'm not bothered though, I've learnt heaps and my  2026 investing goal is to put some of that knowledge into practice and be in the green next year!

@Seanham this fits me pretty well!

I would save it, invest conservatively and retire early

chaotic! Who can predict his next move? He will likely try to push the stock market higher as winning the economy seems to be a key focus of his. But perhaps any proposed benefits to the financial sector will be short term highs but end up with negative long term outcomes. Buffet commented recently about concerns of the US dollar value falling long term.

Google has the best shot at hitting $300 by year end - the current gap is smallest and some analysts project it going higher than $300. Yes, likely both market overreaction and the first cracks of an AI valuation bubble. Best buy would be google - good growth and strong profitability

I have heard of the concerns regarding the US currency and have been looking at other international investment options although i think SGD unlikely to reach parity to USD.  Increasing my gold allocation is something I have considered.

stable yield! I'm all about the dividends and growth is a bonus
