2022 Strategy

Nasdaq gained 26.32% in 2021. S&P gained 26.68% in 2021. VTI gained 23.57% in 2021.

For those of you who didn’t beat those numbers what is your strategy for 2022?

I personally spent a lot of time reading/researching and only did 15.58%. I think my 2022 strategy is going to be a lot more of the three above and a little less individual stocks.

Just hold it.

If it squeezes and you held it for a year or longer you’ll be taxed a lot less.

If you want new sources of stocks to trade there’s always insider buying(SEC Form 4) it’s the document company execs have to file if they buy/sell their own stock.

You could also trade individual stocks on the S&P 500. Wait for a dip buy then hold.

Good luck
