What ratio if any provides a good indicator of a stock/ etf general movement pattern?

I put everything you need to get in that post. It's all safe buy and forget investments that will throw off solid cash flow for reinvesting or use in life. So you just buy 25% in each of the four funds below, they are all diversified low fee funds. 25% VOO - S&P 500 25% VXUS - international basket fund 25% SCHD - Value and dividend basket fund 25% MLPX - Energy focused fund that reprices rapidly with inflation. Has a high dividend. This energy ETF is unique in the stack as it's holdings are not sensitive to energy prices. They are logistics. This is a core staple holding of mine.
My advice would be don't pay a fiduciary if you feel you have patience and not panick sell in downturns. And don't overtrade. Simple strategy. 25% VXUS - international basket 25% SCHD - Value and dividend basket 25% MLPX - Energy ETF reprices rapidly with inflation - high dividend. This energy ETF is unique in the stack as it's holdings are not sensitive to energy prices. They are logistics. This is a core staple holding of mine. 25% VOO - S&P 500 This is globally diversified, will throw off great income, will thrive in high inflation periods, and provide growth. If you don't need the dividends reinvest.
I'm mid-stream oil, MLPX, EDP (i think is one), or the ETF AMZA, so far has just been insanely solid
End last year, I mentioned $FNMA as one of my best ideas for 2026 It has not panned out so far, but I did average down to $4.5 range and now I'm up big overall. It's still among my best ideas -------- $BPTRX has 33% of its asset in SpaceX valued at $830 billion (latest funding round). If SpaceX can indeed trade at $2 trillion on its IPO day, as most prediction markets are implying, the gain will be very substantial SpaceX's latest deal with Anthropic can generate $5 billion annually at current GPU rental prices. xAI's investment in its Colossus 1 cluster was ~$7 billion, so this kind of ROI is several times better than pre AI cloud computing -------- I see Energy ($XLE, $MLPX, $FSLR, $LNG) as a hedge in the current environment. This sector is now down since the start of the war, as if the market has already priced in Iran's surrender. I personally don't think it will be that easy. Plus, the AI buildout needs a lot more energy in the years ahead
MLPX might be the move this week …
put some profit from mango cutting my PLTR short's profitable but short into MLPX which was down .32 and look at that. It's almost green. Just threw a 0de TSLA 340 in there as a scratch off. Banbet TSLA drops below 340 today.
went back to message that was removed . Don't see anthimg bad . Trust me I worked on the Street for 25+ yrs, no can't insult me. MLPX looks like a good idea anything
yeah, it's crazy. I was theorizing a big portfolio jump for me last night, but when I saw the crude price at open - before I logged into investment website, um...no. down a little - < .1% Don't count the chickens! Seems like with this SPR release (Real or imagined)...that will tame the tiger for awhile. Maybe good time to put more in MLPX - has good dividend. I will prob do that shortly.
oh didn't know that (or forgot). Good comment then. Sold out of my OILK too early when the Battle (Hate to use that word war -- since it's been in a war state for a long time) started, but on the positive side, I put a lot more $ into HGER and CMDT and more into MLPX (Which is not that correlated - but still). My OILK position was small. I went huge into VTIP too and more into STPZ. I'll be adding to VTIP on Monday. Convert some other Ultrashort Bond positions to that.
Maybe it makes sense to direct new money toward a solid international ETF, plus a small emerging markets sleeve for diversification. I like keeping exposure to financials through something like XLF, and energy through FENY or XLE. Adding an MLP fund for midstream exposure also makes sense, I’m own EMO and MLPX.
Look at UTF share price vs NAV and then look at VPU & MLPX and please tell me why the gap is that large thank you

I like MLPX. Very solid and consistent stock with a great dividend. Wont make you a millionaire but should be decent return by 2030.
If you find yourself in a hole, step one is stop digging. You don't have to keep digging/putting your paycheck into the sp500 at CAPE Shiller of 40.5, you could 1) put it into VXUS with a PE of about 15 and easily own 6000 foreign companies 2) into 100% safe cash - SGOV at 3.85% with no risk of any capital loss (Buffett has been doing this for 4 years now, with 382 Billion in T Bills just waiting for a crash - he is an ok investor) 3) a collection of BDCs/mREITs/CEFs earning around 10-11% 4) gold/silver ETFs which often outperform in recession or stagflation 5) real estate syndications - get 15-25% checkout passive pockets youtube channel, and biggerpockets website 6) Oil/Gas MLPs, like ET/EPD/MLPX 8-10% dividend yields alone about 100 other things that are easy to invest in and not the sp500 :)
Look into AMLP or MLPX for etf exposure to MLPs. Both will not require a K1 come April. Or if you want to roll with individual MLP... EPD should top of your list. Then look for ROC type ETFs like QQQi or equivalent. Reminder... im mo financial advisor and these are just suggestions. Im 51 with around 2.3m in Roth 401k and Roth IRA. The above mentions are on my dividend list.
VYM is a great option. MLPX might help diversify you.
Is this in taxable or IRA? VT for total world market. SCHD or VYM or similar for some defensive div plays. MLPX has good non-FAANG exposure that's got a good return (high div, best in IRA) O - Realty Income is still a solid five star buy at this level and gives you good diversity from the usual VT/VOO/VTI. Again, has high div returns. Eat the tax in taxable or buy this in IRA.
Midstream energy, yes... MLPX Insurance, yes... IAK Cars, no. Banking, yes... KBWB These particular ones have done about as well as tech (IGM, SMH) or industrials (AIRR) the turbulent last five years.
Easy. You invest in taxable brokerage into high growth and low dividend holdings. You eat a small tax burden each year as it screams upward (if all goes well). You're building a giant pile of cash that ***can and will someday*** generate passive income. Then you retire early. In the first few years in which you're down to almost no income (just a few dividends and maybe interest and a small pension if you're lucky), you have all that hugely appreciated VOO or VTI or whatever to start selling, you can book up to $100K or so a year of LTCG (as a MFJ couple). If you got the expected 6%+ gain a year for 20+ years, that gain nets you $320K or so in cash. Spend what you need, invest the rest in higher dividend payers for future years. SCHD and VYM are good ETF fire and forget options. MLPX is a nifty non-FAANG option. REITS are cool. Derivative income ETFs are riskier but pay huge divvies. Pick one or many of those and do that for a few years before you turn on social security. By then you'll have your multi-million $ portfolio mostly converted to one generating 5-15% return with the rest still comfortably (or not) in VTI giving you growth for the long term.
The question you have ask is how active of an investor do you want to be? If you want to just put money in and let it grow without thinking a whole lot, there’s not much better than VOO. QQQ (Nasdaq 100) or BRK.B have turned in better results. Not much else. If you want some risk with high return potential, you can look to Energy Master Limited Partnerships and an ETF of them like MLPX limits your risk while having high historic returns. But research the risks. Beyond that, there’s a lot of ways to make money, finding a good individual stock, leveraged ETFs, or options. But there are a lot more ways to lose your shirt or do a lot of work to make only as much as you would have Vooing and chilling. So if you go beyond that you really have to do homework and building and maintaining a portfolio can be a full time job in itself.
Glad to see you diversifying. For high returns down the line, might look into Energy Master Limited Partnership stocks or an ETF like MLPX Potential return aren’t Crypto level huge but have a large potential and are a bit removed from the tech sector.
AIRR, infrastructure MLPX, midstream energy infrastructure KBWB, big banks KRE, regional banks IAK, insurance
Energy, energy infrastructure, US Energy independence... I have a mix of those and they're all doing quite well. Look at SRV, NXG, USAI, ENB, ENFR, HESS and HESM, AMLP, MLPA, MLPX... there's a lot to choose from.
Yes, but are you making the maximum you can? I buy sector ETFs and dividend ETFs instead, and focus on individual stocks. Take ETFs like PPA, KRE, PSP, MLPX over the past year compared to only holding VOO in a coma. Massive growth *and* divs. Then CC ETFs like JEPQ, GPIX, BITO, GLDI (technically an ETN) for more divs, lots of choices that are all doing well compared to slow ass passive ETFs and boomer stocks. If a market segment slows down you can rebalance and the divs keep you alive, with VOO you are slowed down by the slow segments and you don't get *monthly* income. For stocks I put most into TSMC, Nvidia, Amazon, Raytheon, Broadcom, and a few others that are more risky like Cloudflare and Palantir, plus gas, electricity, and shipping. You can't get that kind of balance and performance from VOO.
SCHD as a foundation add in some LPs ET, EPD, MLPX etc and done. Shoot for 5% with growth that will cover you with plenty left over. What you want in a dividend based sub r/dividendgang or r/dividends
Uncle Carl with his IEP paying 15+% distributions. IEP is a MLP which gives you serious tax savings until you sell the stock. Two other MLPs, USAC (11+%) and Marathon Oil's MLPX (9+٪)... All three are also positive YTD vs everything else being down...
Very similar philosophy but need the options income, kids still on the payroll. Had some unfortunate assignments but in balance been able to Roll out of situations not to my liking. What other stocks are you holding that you believe are good value for the long run and have high sustainable dividends? I'm heavily in pharma with ABBV, GILD, GSK, PFE plus some interesting Energy (SHEL, VLO, MLPX) and some small cap (TRTN, APAM) finally basic Financials (BNS, C).
I am invested in the European carbon credit markets via GRN and KRBN. Anticipating that commodities inflation, especially wheat and corn, is only getting started I am invested in RJA and RJI. I am invested in a gas pipeline ETF, MLPX, which issues a 1099 not a K1 which you would get if you invest directly in a pipeline MLP, and it has an almost 6% Div. I am also invested in BRK.B. I am considering getting into banks, either WFC, BAC, or the KRE ETF.
The entire Global X Suite is really nice, and their website is top-tier compared to a lot of boomer fund sites. You can sort by themes, income, etc. My favorites are MLPX, QYLG, XYLG, RYLD, LIT, and PAVE right now. Link to explore below: https://www.globalxetfs.com/explore/
I am in Canada, it will also go into a tax free account. I found MLPX:https://www.globalxetfs.com/funds/mlpx/ It seems to have one the lower MER 0.45 compared to other MLP ETFs. Which do you use?
>Bunch of different ways. ETFs that track an index and sell options on the basket and distribute the income, e.g. NUSI, QYLD. Some REIT ETFs e.g. SRET. Preferred stock ETFs like PFFA, PFFD. Master limited partnership ETFs like AMZA or MLPX. ETFs that focus on high-div yield stocks e.g. SDIV. Not a comprehensive list. i understood some of these words

I've actually been thinking about switching from individual mlp's to $MLPX simply because I'm gotten too lazy to deal with individual K-1s. I think about it every April. I am assuming that there are no individual K-1's since the ETF pays dividends. From a diversification perspective, an ETF is probably simply than trying to pick a few stocks. You do have to like midstream energy companies and make sure that you zoom out on the price chart to understand what you are getting into. As well as the correlation to oil and gas prices.
Big players: Exxon, Chevron, BP, Shell, ConocoPhillips, Phillips 66 Special: Occidental petroleum MLPs: OneOk, Enterprise Products Partners, Kinder Morgan, MLPX, Enbridge
I agree. do you like MLPX for infrastructure?
