Timing the market usually fails. Dollar cost averaging can give you a small advantage.
Assuming that AI follows a similar path as the .com boom… A lot of companies will go under leaving a few companies who will benefit greatly. It’s not that AI is going away. We’re just pruning the dead wood.
If you have a place to park it that will earn more or lose less, definitely. Putting into cash will lose at least 3% per year.
In the long run that makes sense. In the short term, they’re linked. SpaceX doesn’t have contracts to fill every launch, so they fill in the extra space with Starlilnk launches. Starlink doesn’t exist without SpaceX.
They don’t have the ability to squeeze them. They are offering more launches, with fewer costs overruns, at a better cost.
We had and have a national space agency. A private company has surpassed them and is now offering launches 90% cheaper than NASA. It’s cost overruns are also 97% less. If NASA were “funded properly,” we would be paying a lot more for a lot fewer launches.
Real estate has the potential to be cheap in 20 years as the baby boomers die leaving smaller generations to buy their larger number of homes.
Any kind of asset can be a good investment. If you have a place to store it, classic cars only go up in price and some of them are under 10K. Bonus: you get to drive them. I know someone whose 401k is mostly collectable guns (rare, 100+ years old guns). You just need to choose something with lasting value. Don’t repeat the Beanie Baby crash.
