Buying individual stocks can be stressful, doing it correctly means research and babysitting. The only stock I still hold years later is AAPL, but everything else is ETFs which helps me sleep better. Stick with the advice of almost entirely ETFs, and a small allocation to stocks so you can learn with small bets. As for ETFs, keep it simple. Since you’re young I suggest 50% S&P index like IVV or VOO, 30% IDMO for international, 10% FBTC (if you don’t like crypto then make S&P 60%, 10% individual stocks.
You’re probably better off sticking with what you got, but I recommend you open a personal Roth account, contribute to that to your maximum per year ($7K if married), and stop contributing to your 401K whatever percentage that Roth max equates to. With your personal Roth established, you’re now empowered to invest in whatever you like with tax free growth. Your timeline is tight, so go bold! Maybe FSELX and FBTC. I do something similar to this. My employer matches up to 6%. So I only contribute 6% to the 401K to get my free money from them, and then everything else I do on my own with my Roth and my wife’s Roth. My investments are more exciting than their boring target fund.
Individual stocks are always higher risk versus ETFs or mutual funds. AAPL is the only individual stock I have anymore, but I’ve owned it for many years. CRSP has some serious potential, but I grew impatient and sold it. If NVDA or MSFT have another big dip, I might buy some, but it’s kinda silly since they already exist in most index funds. Happy to give you some favorite ETFs though. IDMO is a beast for international, and I’m fond of FIVA as well. I have a small position for ICOP. I genuinely believe copper and copper mining are a smart investment in the coming decades. FSELX is volatile but otherwise a great mutual fund for semiconductors. I contribute a little every week to FBTC. I don’t like cryptocurrency, but sadly I think it’s here to stay. I won’t deny it, it’s performed very well.
Make index funds the cornerstone of your investments. If you have no exposure to Bitcoin, after the next bear market / major correction to Bitcoin, if not now and near ATHs, you may want to consider some exposure to IBIT or FBTC.
Keep 75% of your profile simple. Broad ETF's. I'm bullish on bitcoin over the next 20 years, but feel free to drop it if you aren't. VOO(50%), SCHD (15%) and FBTC (10%) Add consistently and rebalance occasionally. Use 15% in a mix between established high growth stocks that you believe (whatever is the current "MAG 7" or flavor of the year). Buy when it dips and buy when it grows. Use 10% on moonshot plays. Disruptive growth stocks that could see exponential growth. Do your research and set a timeline (5-10 years). Don't get suckered into doubling down on a good month. High risk high reward, but a total loss won't crush you. This breakdown shoots for consistent long term growth. It's not going to make you an overnight millionaire, but its tried and true.
30yr old Male in CA. I hold a Roth IRA with Fidelity - VT. SPLG. QQQM. FBTC. I have an old 401K with $25K in it, I’m going to roll it over to an IRA. Looking to maximize growth and returns, What would be a good portfolio based off my Roth portfolio?? Any help or advice is appreciated..
My Dad. "FBTC has made a lot of money for me."
Exchange Traded Product ETP is a category and ETF is one of the three types along with ETN and ETC. OP is just trying to sound smart but forgot this is still a finance sub even though it's a casino, so his yapping will just look retarded to most people. Greyscale applied to convert their 16b otc Bitcoin Trust to a btc etf and got rejected, then SEC sued them for some reason. They lost to the surprise of no one, since there's already lots of approved btc etf on the market such as Blackrock's IBIT, Fidelity's FBTC, and many more. SEC essentially shot themselves in the foot in-terms of setting the precedence that it's already legal, so SEC had no reason to reject the application let alone sue.
Recently I made money with Circle and CoreWeave IPO. Backed out of AIRO when their IPO got delayed. I'm missed out but pround I showed some restrant of buying a company I don't know much about. Robinhood has a page of recently launched IPOs, alot of them failed. I would keep most of your money in VOO. SPMO SMH FBTC are also good ETFs. Sit and wait for the right IPO. A company that you know that has a good product. I made money off of Roku and Cloudflare IPO. I knew those companies they have a good product. I didnt get all the share I wanted with Cirlcle at IPO price on Robinhood. The next high indemand IPO I'm going to split it between different brokers. Rember if its a good company even if it drops your didn't loose money until you sell. You can always sit on it. It can always go back up. CoreWeave didn't drop much but took a little while to go up. Even if it takes you a couple years sit back and wait for that one good IPO. If you got 5 grand and go all in on 6 good IPO trades. Your trading whole yearly salaries. You could be eventually living off 1 trade a year. Try not to go all in but you have to go in huge if you want hugh profits. I bought about 5 IPOs and they all did good. They have to have a good product.
I put 100% FBTC in my roth because I believe it will have the best returns.
my Roth is 100% FBTC. I have VOO and other ETFs in the taxable account.
VT and chill all the way. If you want a little risk, put 5% in FBTC.
FBTC feels safer than VT at this point.
Entire Roth IRA in FBTC the day it was launched. Sold it all after a year for roughly 100% gain.
Okay, seriously, redditors are so risk adverse that it seems they wouldn't take guaranteed money of it hit them in the face. 1. Take the 50k loan at a 2.99% interest rate. This is literally free money, and you should take it. 2. Don't spend any of it. Invest it. 3. The safe bet would be US treasury bonds at a 5% interest rate, guaranteed free money, but I'd personally invest it in either VOO or Bitcoin. 4. If you want to diversify your investment: 10% US treasury bonds 20% spot gold ETF (GLD, IAU) 30% spot Bitcoin ETF (FBTC) 10% foreign markets with an alright dividend yield (VXUS) 40% US markets (VOO) If you are smart with your money, a 50k loan at 2.99% can only help you. I guess the amount of years you have to pay it off will matter. You need to make sure you can sustain the monthly payments on the loan with only your salary. You cannot dip into your investments to pay off this loan or you many come out very far behind.
Old standbys are nvda, tsla, smciBut i wouldnt take a trade there right now. Btc etfs (STO FBTC 90p) and btc exposed companies like MSTR (the volatility of the common is a feature, not a bug) MARA, coinbase. Meme and “in play” names like HOOD, RDDT, HIMS, DKNG CRWV CHWY As for what im selling puts on right now. GME next week going into the earnings print, but im selling calls too. If thats too degen, you could STO INTC 20p right now thats always a good trade for me pretty hard to get burned there.
I bought the FBTC dips so that is carrying me.
I went full port into FBTC. How did I do?
FBTC IBIT is the only correct answer. Check this post 5 years from now and compare the returns with all the other answers.
Roth IRA- 50% in a low cost S&P 500 index fund such as SPLG and 50% in a bitcoin ETF such as FBTC.
Planning to. Still have plenty of long term spot BTC I’m holding onto. Also, I’ll probably rebuy FBTC in the IRA/ at some point during the next bear market.
I yolo’d my entire Roth IRA and Traditional IRA into FBTC on the day it opened and sold it all later in 2024 for a roughly 100% gain in each. I used the proceeds to buy VT. Probably shaved a few years of my working career with that move. Still have taxable spot BTC that I’ll sell at $150k.
Personally, I like the etfs. In particular, Fidelity's FBTC etf. Reasonable fees, and they created their own holding company for their coins. This means no 3rd party holder to worry about, and it's backed by Fidelity. Through an etf, the tax implications are the same as other etfs.
Use 2-3% of your portfolio to put into FBTC or IBit and thank me 10 years from now.
80% SPMO, 20% FBTC. Ride it to the promised land.
My ATH was Feb 13. Dropped 30%ish, bottomed April 8th. Continued to DCA in with regular contributions through the turbulence. Used cash reserves to buy the dips on several single picks, & FSKAX, & FBTC. My single picks are up anywhere between 15-75% I'm at a new ATH valuation, but more importantly, I own more shares - fuel for the rocket ship. During that whole time, I ignored the idiocy of reddit that said to move to cash or European lol So obviously stupid. Buy the dip and wait and don't get emotional.
SCHD 40%, VXUS 15%, FBTC 5%, BND 25%, SGOV 15%. SGOV acting as your rainy day fund since the banks have a $250K limit.
for americans the VAST majority of btc is being bought on credible exchanges like Coinbase or through stocks like $FBTC. These things report taxes just like any other stock trading would. Respectfully, you have no idea what you're talking about. Take a finance class.
Wish I wasn't freaked out by options. I somehow had money, up from selling FBTC that i bought before bitcoin went over 100k, settle at midnight and bought shares of TQQQ with it literally minutes before the China deal news came out. Went up 11-12% before my eyes
I honestly couldn't tell you the total but that's bc when I first started buying I was buying it on CoinBase then later I started loading up on FBTC in my Roth IRA and then MSTR in my Roth and Brokerage account. It's the only Crypto I mess with after getting my nuts kicked on LRC. If I had to guess without totaling everything up....30% of my portfolio
I took profits on my BTC and FBTC and bought BRKB and NVDA. Sold and re-bought my BROS and got 2 free shares. Probably should have held the BTC holdings. Glad I talked my dad in to holding most of his stuff.
I hold both in my Roth for BTC custody diversification. FBTC is self-custody, IBIT is Coinbase custody. Both have performed almost identical to each other.
I sold MSTR and swapped to FBTC and IBIT but for some reason, MSTR swings much more
I bought FBTC in January and I’m just now back to break even.
I actually have more MSTU than I realized at that moment and at that point I figured I should also post my FBTC. \[And now I see I can only do one image per comment… Very sorry for this sloppy post!\] https://preview.redd.it/1pvazqatauxe1.jpeg?width=1624&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=20193d054a18ff6de6a62795caedac767acc5f8d
Unless you plan on using rule of 55 and your 401(k) plans allow for it, I'd roll them over to Schwab or Fidelity. You're probably paying exorbitant fees in your 401s relative to a brokerage. Consider allocating some into Bitcoin via BITB or FBTC.
Let’s go! RemindMe! 3 months FBTC 81.3 FETH 17.95
Hate to be that guy but it looks like FBTC did substantially better than FETH. Double or nothing on the next three months or have you seen the light?
Haters are mad, but my meme-themed Liberation proof portfolio has been thriving. Sold all my stocks pre-liberation, put it into FBTC, MSTR, GME and I'm up like 15% LMAO
Some profits went to buying a teen her first car. So, a gently used Mustang. The rest split between HYSA and GLD/FBTC.
I've been buying FBTC since it launched last year, bitcoin etfs are a good option for getting price exposure to bitcoin with the need to own the asset. I wouldn't personally dabble in any other digital assets.
VOO, SCHG and FBTC, thank me later.
Is owning GLD via an ETF less ripe for seizure than owning bitcoin via FBTC?
All that money has to go somewhere right? Stocks are unstable right now. Tariffs change every 6 seconds. Allies are getting threatened. The dollar is getting devalued. Trade wars are happening. No they're not it's cancelled. Oh wait trade war again. Read the tweets and manipulate the markets. Apparently, Jerome Powell might get fired. Or he might not. Fake news. Real news. Rumors. Reversal. I can't keep up. I've been in stocks since 1996 and this is insane. This is all from one dude. How??! Today, I moved some of my money to gold and Bitcoin. I bought GLD and FBTC. Right now it's like 2% of my portfolio, but if this madness keeps getting worse I might continue to increase that.
VT 96% FBTC 2% IAUM 2% That will get you started.
I bought gold (IAUM) today, and some crypto on sale (FBTC, FETH). I also rebalanced my small caps and mid caps with the recent sell offs. Also put away a 2 year CD. Now just gonna let it all ride the roller coaster.
If you have liquidity, everything on sale. FBTC or IBIT etf look yummy for long holds.
$250 FBTC a paycheck in ROTH if you’re really about speculation. The longer you are willing to leave it automatic the better. You should be doing the same with VOO. Panic selling in BTC is FAR more punishing though. That is the nature of high risk high reward.
Lless than 2%. I purchased small amounts of FBTC when the price dips with the goal of getting to the equivalent of 1 BTC. I'm at about 79% now.
Trying out FBTC in my Roth IRA. Only 5% so nothing crazy
If you can access Fidelity's fund, they have FBTC if you are not comfortable with Blackrock. Thinking about it myself in these times.
FBTC in the roth ira all day. I mean not all, but definitely making sure to get some each year.
I own FBTC and IBIT within my Roth. It's still a minority allocation as opposed to broader more diversified ETF's that I hold within it but I didn't see a reason not to include at least a small amount. Black Rock uses coinbase as a custodian and Fidelity custodies its own Bitcoin, which is why I split up my allocation to the asset with two different ETFs instead of one. After maxing out my Roth, I do not hold these ETFs in my brokerage accounts or elsewhere as I don't see as much advantage there. I do own some actual Bitcoin that I custody myself and after maxing out I exclusively do that. Still I'm not heavily allocated to either actual Bitcoin or the Bitcoin spot ETFs and my backbone of retirement is in conventional assets. However, I believe it's earned its place in my portfolio to allocate at least some of my investment funds towards
I hold FBTC in my Roth ira through Fidelity who holds its own Bitcoin as the underlying asset. Blackrock and others use coinbase to the hold the bitcoin for them which I'm not wild about.
I have a small position in FBTC (was 3% and it's down by 1.8% now due to performance). My entire rationale is that if it blows up due to friendly US government policies, I'll take those gains. If it goes to 0, then it doesn't really hurt.
OP Nailed this chart pattern ID, can’t believe all the haters in the comments. Are you playing the morning star that printed on the BTC/FBTC daily chart today?
My portfolio of VT, FBTC, GLD looking better by the day. US is a dumpster fire.
The hell are you talking about? You mentioned IBIT and FBTC.
And IBIT or FBTC for bitcoin.
FBTC, baba, meta, hood and smci
Now you’re getting the hang of it. ~ Just add a little FBTC and you’ll be diversified’d.
If you are 47 (20 years from retirement), then 71% VT, 2% FBTC, 27% BND.
Solid allocation—VOO and VXUS provide strong diversification, and FBTC adds some upside potential. If you’re looking to expand beyond stocks and bonds, platforms like Kasu offer alternative yield opportunities that can complement a long-term strategy.
401k up to the match. Max out HSA if available, invested in a broad market index fund Roth IRA, Max out the 7k per year, 6k in an S&P index like FXAIX, 1k in a Bitcoin ETF like FBTC Anything left in a brokerage, some low risk broad market index, some higher volatility growth ETFs like QQQ and save an emergency fund, 3-6 months of expenses that's what I would do anyway.
Ya I think I might do that. Make FBTC at 15%.
Personally, I'd move 5% from SGOV into FBTC or VOO/VXUS and aim for more risk for your age/time horizon.
XLF because it's heavy in Berkshire. FSELX because AI is going to grow exponentially and semiconductors will be big for a long time. FXAIX because I'm always buying the S&P FBTC because I expect Bitcoin to continue trending up for a long time FSPGX and QQQ because growth Oh wait you said stocks. I don't really buy individual stocks, except TSLA occasionally because I believe in the company and expect continued growth
401k lost a small amount, because it’s a small account (1 year of working here). IRA is up, because CASH GANG and FBTC. Both have been getting their doors kicked in for 2 weeks now.
I grabbed 20 shares in my Roth with some FBTC profits. I'm looking forward to the EU building up a military force (especially a blue water navy) for good that can better assist the US maintain freedom of navigation across the world.
ytd +1.44% Equal weighted FBTC VOO SCHD I buy monthly and stay equally weighted by buying whatever has been lagging.
Looking back at 11/6/2024, I'm basically flat. I had 100% gains on FBTC and TSLA, though, which helps a lot. I sold a loser for taxes in December. My portfolio benefited from the rallies in a few equity positions in the energy and healthcare sectors. I have been trimming over the last 2 months. I raised enough cash to now start adding back to those positions during this correction.
this looks like a post for r/Buttcoin "Don't buy" doesn't sound like you've taken any kind of position. If you really believe what you wrote, then buy some puts on FBTC, otherwise you seem to lack credibility in your conviction.
Thank you for this <3 just bought some more FBTC and RXRX!
Picked up 5 shares of NVDA hoping its on sale. Maybe 5 more tomorrow. Sold FBTC for decent profits in my Roth and have cash to burn. Maybe FXAIX. Dunno.
I have stayed completely away from crypto while friends all around have said I’m crazy. About a month ago, I spent a small chunk of money on a FBTC (Fidelity Bitcoin ETF). Now, obviously, it dropped way down in recent weeks, though it shot up over the weekend, back to my cost basis. For me, it’s going to need to remain a long term play, no significant part of my portfolio. Winners will be minted, people like me will keep it around as a curiosity for now.
Glad I didn't sell FBTC. Was on the verge.
And my crypto bro buddy who strongly advised on me getting MSTR, FBTC, TSLA has lost me a lot in the last year. It’s too late for me to bail so I’m going to HODL. At least my financial advisor got me into AMZN a few years ago and that has made good money up until this crash.
Should I sell my entire personal account? Selling my personal account and moving it into my Roth? Looks like I'd have a small loss of $25 and I'd hold onto a few specific stocks like Visa and NVDA in my personal account so I don't trigger any tax events. Then I'd max out the Roth IRA at 90% VOO, 5% NVDA, 2.5 % VIG, 2.5% FBTC I have less than $4k in the personal account and haven't maxed out the roth yet, so i should be okay. Also, I wasnt the greatest investor starting out and have some overlap id get rid of this way.
Yeah I went into FBTC, but rotated to IBIT when options started trading because just a lot more strikes/expirys/liquidity.
I’ve got a worse trade for you: FBTC bitcoin etf on January 27. Ask me how I know.
You all can blame me. I've denied it for years now, but made my first investment in crytpo at all 1 month ago. FBTC etf at 86.99/share. One day was positive. Since then, blood red.
Just buy the bee tee cee itself it has a better performance. IBIT or FBTC
Xle Xlf VOO FBTC JPMC Nvidia Amazon Microsoft I’m just buying the discounts
FBTC was a dud for me but it was a great options play. I'm thinking about trimming my XOM holdings. You might also consider Kimberly Clark for your staples and NVO in your pharma.
You’ll need to average around 29% annual return to achieve that goal in 5 years, which is extremely difficult to do. And to get an exceptionally large reward you must take an exceptionally large risk, there’s no getting around that. With all that said, my strategy would probably be 60% TQQQ / 40% FBTC. Then just hope for the best market conditions we’ve ever seen, because that’s what you’ll need. That’s not financial advice btw. It’s just what I would do to attempt that unrealistic goal.
QQQ tracks the NASDAQ and is more aggressive than VOO but will see bigger draw downs when shit hits the fan, but at 20 that’s not something you have to worry about. Or if you really want to roll the dice, you can put some funds in FBTC or another etf that gives exposure to bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies.
Love my FBTC. Bought it the first day. I would consider going into your brokerage account and find a fund that is more like 5-6% a year return. I parked money in sphix for years. It pays a monthly dividend.
No all my investments are in XEQT, FBTC, ETHX.B. I dont even really know what penny stocks is. My main goal is just really to dump my money somewhere and forget about it for a few years.
