Inflation soars by most since 2022 as gas prices bite
Inflation in March saw the largest monthly gain since 2022 as the US-Israel war sent gas prices skyrocketing past $4 a gallon.

Most people don’t lose in the market because they’re wrong they lose because they can’t sit still
I used to think the hardest part of investing was finding good companies. The more I watched my own behavior (and others), the more I realized that’s actually the easy part. The real issue is what happens *after* you buy. You see a position go green you get excited and …
Help me understand why accumulating ETFs are not a Ponzi scheme
Here my (presumably flawed) assumptions and understanding of stocks and stock valuations: 1. The "worth" of stocks (therefore ETFs) can be estimated based on future earnings (dividends) and/or the underlying companies' future growth 2.

I just read a Motley Fool article about the ARK Venture Fund (ARKVX) as a way to get exposure to SpaceX, OpenAI, and Anthropic pre-IPO. Those three alone make up about 32% of the fund, and I would like to own all three. The returns since the fund launched have …
Dealing with some regret amidst "missed opportunity" to have invested more a month ago and in the past few weeks. Any constructive thoughts?
I feel I missed out by not buying prior to today. I don't know why it didn't occur to me to do so when I was going back and forth because it seems obvious and hindsight that Trump wasn't going to follow through on his threats Is it too late …
Is the market too optimistic about the ceasefire?
I can’t quite believe why people think it’s okay to buy now. The so-called ceasefire is so weak. Both sides are fundamentally disagreeing on most terms. Knowing Trump, there is no way he will come to terms in the first meeting or even the first few. That could easily mean …
