Is this a good index fund to invest in? It has relatively low costs as far as I can tell and it seems pretty well diversified across the US stock market. If not what's a better one to take a look at? Thanks!

Any help? Just want to make sure I'm not getting cucked.
>>2883646
yep that's one of the best index fund.
otherwise VFIAX at 0.04% if you're more conservative
>>2883646
but you may want to research if index funds are better than ETFs in your case

>nominal price of houses higher than at peak of 2006 bubble due to fed suppressing interest rates
>market require continuous propping by the fed to remain elevated
>GDP growth numbers anemic
>massive unfunded liabilities
>Total Public Debt as Percent of Gross Domestic Product at all time high

there will be a crash in the next 2 years, but it will be good to invest after that. that's my plan.

What goes down always comes back up, a downturn is the best time to buy more shares. America isn't going anywhere.
>>2885405
Yeah, that's my point.
Timing the market is generally dumb... but I think going all in on index funds right now looks pretty dumb too.
At the verrrry least, I would scale in very slowly into any long term position at the moment.
>>2884957
what the hell? 0.04%? Thats not even worth the time!
>>2885731
That's the fee dumbass.
VTI is your go to.
>>2885856
Aha makes a lot more sense now
>>2885466
It'll probably be a couple years or more before we see a downturn, it's also possible that it could be even longer. Time in the market is more important than timing the market. Besides, you should always be saving money so it's not like 2 years from now you won't have any cash to invest if things go south for a little while.

I really want to do index funds and stocks, but I'm sure as hell not going to until the market crashes and QE bullshit ends
If I'm going to time the market might as well go all in shitcoins, so for now I just do BTC and cuck government bonds that barely beat inflation

If you bought at the peak of the dot com bubble you would be barely recovering by now
>>2884996
What's the difference? I thought the one i linked as an index fund.
>>2887641
If you bought everything at the very peak. It's not like anyone whose entire portfolio was created that same year had much to lose, if that makes sense.

ETFs can have cheaper expense ratios and can be bought and sold anytime without triggering an "excessive trading" policy that many mutual funds have.

It takes a brave man to have enough faith in the current financial system to believe it will last for 30 more years.
I'm a risk-averse statistician, so I invest in cryptos. Unironically.

Shhhh... facts are not wanted by the /poltards.

alot of that has probably happened in the last few months, I noticed today the dow has soared to ATH since Trump took office. unsurprising I had not heard a peep about this in the media
