    S&P 500 is pretty solid.

      Historically, it has been. Right now is shaky. SPY was over 600 and now having a hard time at 589.

      I concur on this one. Open a Roth IRA and put it towards an S&P 500 mutual fund with low fees. I use Schwab because it’s free to open an account and deposit money.

        Strategy wise it’s good to mention that you approach this as a savings thing so you deposit, say, monthly. That way you compound your interest and that can really ramp up quickly.

          Yeah, totally agree. I’d say take some percent of your paycheck and put it towards this.

      I’ve read somewhere that S&P 500 capitalization is driven up by the IA hype ?

        S&P takes the 500 most profitable companies in the US and builds an index off of that. S&P usually goes about 7% return but markets are very bullish on AI. It’s similar to the dotcom bubble so definitely not without risk.

        Currently nvidia is driving the S&P up but nvidia might crash one day like cisco did back then.
