VTI and chill "Vanguard Total Index" all the stocks, low fees. No thinking. Safeish middle of the road. IMHO should be your benchmark. What is going to do better than that? SPY S+P500, but that's all large cap, and they don't need more cap, and might be a bit of a pyramid. Could be better returns than VTI, but also a bit more risk. QQQ, Nasdaq, tech stocks, bigger returns, but more overvalued than SPY, and for that a bit riskier. HYSA is safer, so might be better, but, only 1% if that better than inflation usually it is less than inflation. Only thing worse would be a safety deposit box. ibonds I still like. I think guaranteed 1.1% above inflation now. In 2019, getting 1.1% on anything safe was genius, savings accounts were paying 0.5%. Can't touch it for a year, which is good and bad. Only $10k/year, which is a little limiting. Might be state tax exempt. Then you get to weird stuff. I like EWG, like a German index fund. Dollar is strongish against Euro now, and if it stops doing that, like because of tariffs or whatever, then that's a little bump. German companies have nice PE ratios. INDA is similar, but India. India is 1B people and industrializing, so the market in general has potential GDP is growing than US, there's a lot of growth potential there. As long as they don't get spicy with the Pakis. I have stock in the bank I bank at. Big solid institution "too big to fail" pays a dividend. Might not grow a lot, but pays a dividend. Similar with my local utility. Pays about as good as real estate, and could also go up in price too. Then, I'll do month trading. Like sometimes buy the hot ticket for a thou. I've mainly lost on this, but whatever, makes me feel big time, and it is only a few hundo. When I lose the losses offset for the tax man. Also look at "tax loss havesting" like switching from VO to VB or SPY to QQQ Look at companies you know professionally. Like how is Sysco doing? If you're in that business, you might know better than me, and have a bit of an edge there, watching your particular industry's news. Having a couple thou in cash on hand, and not visit an ATM for a few months, and use it for restaurants and local businesses, avoid that 3% credit card fee markup on ordinary spending. If you're getting paid in cash though, you might already be doing that. How much into each is about what you believe, and your tolerance for risk vs. your desire for reward, but mix it up a bit, and cover all your bases. Look at tax advantaged accounts like Roth and HSA, and definitely 401k going forward if you have income.
BYDDY (EV future) UBER (autonomous upside) GOOG (overpunished, AI and waymo upside even if search is beat) Meta (massive ads moat because of users and adtech stack) NFLX (room to bundle more value and go upto cable pricing, consumers unlikely to cancel, ads tier as - large backup) SPOT (similar story to Netflix) INDA (emerging market bet; expense ratio is not great but very few India etfs in the US) All that said, 80%+ of my investments are in s&p 500.
Someone bought 5,000 $56 strike Calls for INDA (India etf), Expiry Sept. 19, 2025... could it be someone knows a trade deal is coming? lol
If you're interested in investing in India, it's worth considering going with an active strategy. The average portfolio manager investing in India over the last ten years has outperformed the Nifty500 by 3%. UNFORTUNATELY, there aren't many quality active Indian equity strategies available in the US. So INDA from iShares is a decent bet. The India story is super compelling. I used to work with a portfolio manager from Mumbai, helping sell their strategy to institutions across North America. High GDP growth rate Consumption-driven GDP growth World's 5th largest economy Largest single country contribution to global working age population 60% of the population is below 30 Low debt as a % of GDP Low inflation relative to other emerging markets (3.16%)
True I just assumed that one of my brokerage accounts would allow me to purchase a corresponding ETF. Closest I could find is INDA which follows the MSCI India Index
Puts on ETF's like INDA. INDA ETF for India-related investments. Made about 30% yesterday.
INDA moving overnight. Possible trade deal coming for India tomorrow ?
What’s your he volume on INDA? Like 20?
Puts on India. I loaded INDA puts 
Well… it’s that time again. Cut positions before the Bit correction. Bought some at the bottom and now I am rotating into diversification into China, INDA, and maybe UAE.
Just when I started hyping India as the big winner from the US China trade war. My $INDA doesn’t like this.
INDA ETF and see ya in some years
Long INDA. They'll win.
Chat gpt AND Grok talked me out of buying INDA last week 😂
thought $INDA would be more INDGUH by now 
That is well well priced in India already made a deal with Trump Look at INDA
Glad I have spy leaps, but my shares of INDA and GLD aren't going to do well tomorrow. Risk off it seems. Time to join the rotation.
I'm all out, I recently bought INDA
Who of you are loading up on INDA puts right now?
thank you India thank you providence thank you thank you my calls INDA
update, INDA up nearly 1% on statement from Pakistan officials that nuclear weapons are not a first option
INDA up 1% on news india invasion of pakistan (whom China will back, reportedly) is imminent.
holding a ton of INDA (India ETF) Modi is part of the global right-wing clique. That will govern the trade deals much more than actual trade deals
Yeah but everyone loses in a trade war… to what degree we will have to see. As the dollar loses trust, it has no heir apparent, any fiat currency to take its place has decades worth of trust to build with solid stable trade policy…in the meantime I thin gold is the place holder. That being said, INDA to hold low PE for the rupee sounds good, if Canada takes further steps to decouple from the US, maybe EWC is a good proxy for CAD, EWJ for the yen…for the euro EUAD would not just be euro but specifically aerospace which sounds better than a pure currency hedge.
Up about 50% ytd because I was 100% short on liberation day. I was up about 150% at one point. I think we’re nearing the next top and am loading shorts again, but have a long on INDA that will hopefully print on news of a trade deal.
India deal incoming supposedly. Just bought calls on INDA. Let’s go!!!
I’m just shorting the dollar now. Might go long INDA and I’ll hold this long on MP unless i get stopped out.
Every day I add another 100 shares of INDA (India ETF) because I think it's going to do a lot of the Gyna-replacing. Don't follow supply chains, follow political ideology. Modi and Trump both push different forms of the same basic noveau-fascist ideology. This administration will only make the bare minimum relations with anyone outside that right-wing circle. All the "look at this great deal" announcements will come from those right-wing nations.
MCHI, INDA, IBIT, DBS SP (Cause I’m Singaporean)
SOXS, SQQQ, and SH. SH is my safe bet. I also invested in INDA and VGK, but those were not inverse. I was just trying to diversify outside of the US.
INDA and GLD still looking good. Ez day. Cya tomorrow.
I’ve been accumulating more INDA. India seems well positioned to benefit from a US-China great power battle, and I’ve heard a lot of anecdotes about manufacturing shifting there in search of a more tariff friendly emvironment,
#According to Bloomberg the next thing JD will touch is in the Indian leader, PUUUTS ON INDA
Playbook for a while.. INDA and GLD. Pretty simple and obvious.
I'd look at the euro etf similar to the S&P 500, like VGK, EZU, FEZ, STOXX. Maybe an INDA, or INDY if you think the tarrifs are 2+ years and India get more transfer directly. I am going rebalance with new funds in portfolio to ~30% EURO/India.
There is always money to be made. Stock market will plunge, but gold will moon. Load up on GLD.. While you're at it, jump in on some INDA. INDiA will be the new China.
When Trump illegally fires Powell INDA and GLD are going to moon. LFG! I'm positioned for it!
GLD and INDA still doing well.
I am investing in India via INDA. Historically in a fight between an descending great power and a rival, neutral third parties benefit the most. India, with a massive consumer population overtaking China, a semi-democratic politics, and ambitions to become a great power itself, is the best positioned to benefit in my opinion.
If you want to make money then it's GLD and INDA.
#How the fuck is INDA only down 0.25% on the day, they about to be the biggest recipient of reciprocal tariffs
Or IDEV, SCHY, VEA, SCHF, etc...I think they wanted country-specific ETFs though like FCHL, INDA, EWJ, or EWU. i may be mistaken. VXUS is a good and very broad option if they want maximum exposure.
Going defensive. XLE, ITA, PAVE, COMT, GLD. Thinking of INDA for some additional non-US exposure. Im thinking not just recession, but major geopolitical disruption. Commodities for stagflation or reserve status loss, ITA/XLE for war.
Just make sure you use a tax advantaged account, then buy ETFs maybe go 60% US 40% rest of the world and decide whichever ones suit you, maybe you are bullish India and so you make 15% of your portfolio INDA or something along those lines, most things Charles Schwab are pretty good but you are also young and can afford to play with risk either being a tech ETF or not individual stocks which if you think are of a high enough quality you can just leave them to compound - e.g. something like Visa or Amazon which is practically universally designated by analysts as a buy. I would probably say that is it unless you are looking for income from your investments but from the sounds of it that is not the case. And good luck *this is not financial advice yadda yadda yadda
I diversify with vxus alongside regional etfs inside my Roth IRA. Mexico EWW, Canada EWC, Japan DXJ and EWJ, Finland EFNL, Poland EPOL, Argentina ARGT, India INDA and EPI. Been with these for three years now. India is down a bit past few months though but I’m holding until retirement. I’d check out some of the different regional ETFs, there’s several of different countries with different specifics.
there are a few ETFs like INDA, FLIN, etc
Hi yes_myy_lord, 0DTEs are wild,save your money with INDA which is 20% corrected. If greedy go for INDL, but not 0DTEs. Save your money!!
#short INDA Donny gonna be dropping mega tariffs on India today
Probably not. Schwab has a pretty good selection and that index doesn't have any corresponding ETFs. You may need to settle for a fund that tracks a different index like INDA or FLIN.
why not start getting your feet wet in ETFs in energy, semi, AIs, and DCA in the next pull back which is likely to happen sooner than later as stocks look stretched. INDA is hot too.
20% Japanese stocks, 15% VOO, 15% QQQ, 15%Crypto, 10% US stocks, 10%INDA, and fixed income and cash. 20-year-old.
At 36, you could be more biased toward growth so you may also consider ETFs like SPYG QQQ BOTZ in addition to VOO, and some portion in international ETFs like INDA
Really solid portfolio actually. Well-diversified. Why the allocation in DIS and Visa? Also, would recommend not investing in AFK and opt for something like INDA (India) now. Africa will definitely have its time, that time just isn’t now.
its a bit of a tight price range. I ran a scan for you for tickers that meet this criteria and have positive variance risk premium (added a few bucks since a bunch are around $50) XLF JETS EWW INDA EEM also [here's a good way to monetize the vrp for them](https://predictingalpha.com/profitable-option-selling-strategy/) gl!
So hard to time these things. I sold INDA ETF when price was at $40 after Adani Hindenburg report first came out. Sold for a loss, now it's 53$ and even got as high as $59.
I switched to FLIN. Has a slightly better return profile over the long run then INDA.
Nope, just because more people seem to know about INDA. I have FLIN as well!
Any reasons to pick INDA over FLIN?
For INR/USD exposure, try forex trading, NDFs (non-deliverable forwards), or Indian equity ETFs like INDA for indirect exposure. If accessible, INR futures on the NSE or holding INR in an international bank account could work too.
I have 100 shares of INDA, what counties do you have an eye on?
INDA? More like Jpow put this dick INDAT ASS
INDA is where it was a month ago, so it doesn't seem to have an impact.
There’s talk of INDA becoming a semiconductor hub. Keep ur eyes open folks.
I’m considering getting a long position in INDA , the chart looks really good in comparison to SPY and the Qs - and it seems to not be affected by these random dumps we’ve been having here . Just a continuous grind up
Swing idea. AZTR small float, recently received study may proceed letter from the FDA for INDA to treat skin rash from EGFR inhibitors, , recent offering at 1.50, recently announced three newly patents in US, China and Canada to treat inflammatory skin diseases, recent 1/30 reverse split, Maxim Group Buy rating, price target $3

If you want India, specifically but don't want to pick individual stocks: * $INDA * $INDY * $FLIN All track indices comprising exclusively Indian companies. Good luck.
I've had a \~20% allocation (and growing) to $INDA, and it's done really well for me, for the last few years. I'm boosting my allocation MoM while closely watching for political instability that may create one-off bulk buying opportunities. Fundamentals are strong, economy is growing, consumption is growing, population is growing. No reason not to allocate some portion to India.
I own iShares $EWJ for my Japan ETF. They have an India ETF $INDA.
What ETFs do you guys use to invest in India? I poked around but don't see too many avenues to get in. There's a handful of India-focused funds - FLIN, INDA, etc - but most have high fees and don't appear to be correlated to the Indian version of the S&P500.
80% TSM 10% EWJ 10% VOO I am thinking about adding INDA
Also depending on what type of international fund you have, you can put an emerging markets fund in your Roth or you can specifically add a country. India seems to be a popular pick right now, so maybe INDA would be a good ETF to look at.
I do. I have the 5% hysa main bucket and ETFs get bought via DCA a small % but big chunks bought on dip. I also hold about 10 stocks, (TSLA, MSFT, GOOG, NVDA, META, AMZN, plus a couple ‘plays’) That i will buy chunks on on dips as well My goal until kids (25) 25% growth stock MARKET exposure (stocks and etfs) 25% ‘index’ (S&P, INDA, VTI) 40% physical income producing real estate 10% personal real estate (living in a condo i own) Cash % seperated because this fluctuates due to macos and I’m relatively higher income for my ahe
If you are not investing in INDA, you should.
What about small caps? They have taken a beating these past few years and will probs perform well when the Fed starts to cut rates as smaller companies are more leveraged. Also India has been all the talk on Wall St... Lots of manufacturing and US tech companies moving into India. India ETF is INDA.
INDA 60C don’t let me down….
INDA, EPI, FLIN, SMIN, INDY, PIN, nfty, glin, inqq, dgin, inde, indf Gotta admit there's a lot more etfs to short since the adani news. And for wsb, INDL (2x lvg bull etf)
I don’t usually like playing relatively illiquid options, but I find myself holding several INDA and baba calls. I wanted to play something outside of spy / qqq influence. Feel relatively zen about it.
You should ask yourself: "do I have any opinions on which companies will do well/outperform the others?" If you don't, just cut everything and stick to VOO (and/or INDA).
