ENTREPRENEUR-INVESTOR READS

​

🤑 If you're managing assets across multiple states, you've got to understand how different state laws affect your protection. Each state has different protection laws for your investments, it's crucial to chat with an asset protection attorney.

​

🤑 If you look at how the stock market performs under different presidents, the big takeaway is that the economy matters more than who's in office. The S&P 500's long-term average growth of about 10.8% a year obviously says staying invested is key, regardless of whether a Dem or Republican is president.

​

🤑 The pool industry is slowing down because of economic troubles. Home sales down and people traveling more, fewer are buying pools, moving away from the big spending seen during the pandemic.

​

🤑 Good times ahead for smart investing, especially in CEFs that yield over 8%. This backdrop makes it a good time to check out high-dividend options like NMAI, which mixes investments across markets and sectors and pays a hefty 13.8% dividend.

​

🤑 Is ETH doomed? The market price is struggling and not getting past important price barriers. Vitalik Buterin is pushing to make ETH faster with things like Single Slot Finality and Layer 2 enhancements to make smooth confirmations even when fewer validators are online.

​

🤑 A good basic guide to buying gold. Some investors are considering 1-ounce gold bars as a strategic hedge against inflation. Key tips? Choose a reputable dealer, understand the full costs including insurance and taxes, and plan for secure storage to safeguard your investment.

​

🤑 Major asset classes performance review - US stocks are crushing it again. Vanguard's Total US Stock Market ETF (VTI) up 3.1% in June, hitting a 13.6% rise this year, leading all major asset classes. Emerging markets and US real estate are also coming back, but foreign RE took a hit, dropping 2.7% last month.

​

🤑 Here's a thought - The S&P 500 isn't the same safety net it once was. Over the years it's become wayy more tech and finance concentrated, making it more sensitive to interest rate shifts and market volatilities. Traditional diversification strategies need a revamp - investors might need to look beyond standard stocks and bonds to maintain effective portfolio diversification. (Non paywall version)

​

🤑 Environmental psychology ups your creativity and productivity game. Try adding a bit of nature to your work space and invest in proper seating — smart strategies for a better well-being.

​

🤑 Modular content is your new best friend—it lets you personalize customer experiences without constantly creating new content. Break your content into flexible pieces to deliver tailored content at scale.
