I'm starting a little diversification into some real estate ventures now, but it's as a passive investor. I'm too close to retirement to really make the numbers work with my own property purchases. (Plus, passive investing works better for my current life.) |

I'm with Rain Man and Lewdog. If you're far from retirement, then bond funds just kinda suck and unless you can't stomach the risk, I'd go higher on stock and lower on bonds. I'm serious about stomaching the risk though. Trying to chase a statistically-likely somewhat higher rate of return isn't worth it if you're not going to sleep at night if the market gets whacked by 20% or somewhat more. It's just not worth it. |

Investing in real estate at 5 percent cap rates is a tough pill to swallow. Not that stocks aren't equally bloated in price. This is what ten years of hammering the long end of the yield curve looks like.

US Steel looks real appealing at these prices but my fear is that it turns out just like GE in that it's not undervalued.
Someone here was a big follower, maybe Buehler? |

Yep, me and Lewdog jumped on it when it was 15-20 and rode it to $42 and sold. I don't think I'm a buyer this time. I bought some UBER when it IPO'd at $42 and dumped it at $44, I have a gut feeling that was a mistake. It might well be a potential money maker when they finally turn. I think I saw it was $46 this morning.

I'm gonna buy some Long Term Call Options for USX. I think it's a good investment longer term.
