RE: If you were given $100,000 to invest in something for three years before being able to sell, what would it be?

in Ask the Hive4 years ago

S&P 500.

Solid historical returns since the creation and think I will be buying at least somewhat of a local low. I'm waiting for it to fall more and can't believe it's still going up with all the negative economic news.

Sort:  

Wasn't the low in around a month ago? I (probably wrongly) the market has news priced in, so even if it takes years to get back on track, it'll be a slow bumpy ride up.

Yeah the low was a month ago, but it's still better than buying in 2 months ago. LOL plus the S&P 500 averages 6 - 8% per year on average since it's creation. Pretty good historical odds it will be higher in 3 years.

I was pretty close to the mark, just didn't have much to put in :)
