I've been having a hard time wanting to buy stocks since the sham election. I'm not sure where to put money but inflation is upon us and I'm not getting anything from money market accounts. I parked most of my retirement money at the first of the year and I've missed a little run up but I'm having a hard time jumping back into the markets.

I figure gold is more of an insurance policy than an investment so I don't buy a lot of it but I've picked up a bit more lately.

What are you investing in these days?

If you invested heavily in gold ten years ago you would be a bit above even now

Is not a very good investment especially the past few years. Pick a reliable commodity stock that pays dividends like one of the mid stream stocks or a good mutual funds. Bonds might not be bad now too. buy on the down days. I have a feeling the market will be really volatile this summer between the fed, reddit stock manipulators and Biden's run away inflation
