Investment forum?

[Raptured]

I was surprised to not see a forum dedicated to investing (or maybe I missed it).   Would this be something others would take interest in?  I am an avid personal investor and while not very good heh (buy high/sell low is my pattern....)  I would love to interact with others who are most definitely more saavy than myself.

I don't touch crypto but mainly deal in tech stocks.  I was lucky to get in on NVIDIA before the split when it was high but not anywhere near it's peak.

anywho....

I would be on board with that. I follow financial news, and right now have cash, oil and gold mining stocks, and some physical metals. I expect a deep correction in the next six months.

We have the global meltdown forum, but I'm inclined to agree. Maybe the market deserves it's own forum.

Yes totally, add a financial forum so people like me can tell it's the wrong place for learning right away.

Might as well add a politics or a mud pit so we can get real aggro about things that have nothing to do with the theme.

Ya I know the defence for adding it but there's a million places to talk money, this isn't deny financial ineptitude...

It seems like a logical development... although "Financial Investment" is a very b-r-o-a-d topic... even without getting into conspiracy theory and the banking cartels... political subversions, and global gaming.

Of course, there might be some confusion about an Investment Forum.  And the word "Investment" might engender misunderstanding in that some might assume it's purpose is to offer 'suggestions' and facilitating 'participation' in market investment.

Like medical or legal advice, this could be a problematic misapprehension.

Some members may want to focus on the volatility of the market "substrate", the 'gaming' of the processes and policies, the special compartmentalization of information within the industry, the graft and corruption of so-called 'oversight and reporting,' and the particularly robust "thespian" productions of "information" about the market and investments in general. 

But I can't imagine that someone won't be expecting to learn something useful towards their understanding about navigating the financial 'tangled ball of twine' that is the stock market, and the proliferation of 'vehicles' and 'products' in the game.

Of course, I expect most people understand that DI (or any other social media experience) is not a substitute for trained/experienced professionally-obtained advice... but I would hope that is made all the clearer with a PSA reflecting the reality of the matter.

I really hope the forum opens so I can show you what I mean. Even if I'm wrong it's fine. My disposition/perogative is different than yours
