jhampton+FollowWhy US Stocks Aren’t the Only Game in TownThinking US stocks are always the MVP? Not so fast.

Time to check if your portfolio is a little too America-heavy! #Business #Market #investing10Share
Elizabeth Lewis+FollowHow Pros Really Play the Energy TransitionEver wonder how the big money crowd invests in the green energy shift? Electron Capital skips the hype and focuses on boring-but-essential stuff: utilities, grid upgrades, and companies that survive when subsidies dry up. Their secret? They watch how politics and regulations shape profits, not just shiny new tech.

Companies are doubling down on what they do best—so expect more swanky homes and fewer shiny new apartment towers from these guys. #RealEstate #HomeBuying #Investing00Share

Brad Caldwell+FollowCleveland’s small landlords are changing the gameSmall landlords in Cleveland are snapping up homes for prices you wouldn’t believe—often paying less than half what the average buyer does. The latest data shows these local investors are getting homes for a median of $113,000, compared to the city’s overall median sale price of $233,000. That’s a 51% discount! With big investors pulling back, it’s these smaller players who are keeping the rental market moving, especially in affordable Midwest cities. What do you think: Is this a win for neighborhood stability, or does it make it even harder for regular folks to buy a home? #RealEstate #Cleveland #Investing00Share
Elizabeth Lewis+FollowHow Bill Gates Cashed In on the Dow's Top StockNext time you’re scrolling past flashy tech stocks, remember this: Bill Gates and Ken Fisher just made $1.7 billion from Caterpillar—yes, the company that makes bulldozers. While everyone was hyped about Nvidia, CAT quietly became the Dow’s MVP, climbing over 60% this year. The lesson? Sometimes, slow and steady (think construction sites, not chatbots) wins the investing race. Maybe it’s time to peek at those “boring” stocks in your portfolio! #Business #Market #investing00Share
jhampton+FollowETF Showdown: VTV vs VFVA for Your WalletThinking about where to park your cash for steady growth? Vanguard’s VTV ETF is like that reliable old coffee maker—steady, but maybe not exciting. But VFVA is the new model on the block, hunting for mid-sized companies that are turning things around. The big shift? Investors want more than just cheap stocks—they want companies getting stronger. If you’re after future dividend boosts, VFVA might perk up your portfolio more than VTV. #Business #Market #investing00Share
randerson+FollowHow one investor built 26 units with patienceImagine turning just $1,000 in savings into a 26-unit real estate portfolio—without rushing risky renovations or relying on expensive loans. Mike Newton, a Washington State Trooper, did exactly that by creating his own 'slow BRRRR' strategy. Instead of sprinting through renovations, he uses longer-term, interest-only loans from private investors, giving him years to rehab and refinance each property. This approach means less stress, steady cash flow, and happy lenders earning double-digit returns. Would you take the slow and steady route to financial freedom, or do you prefer a faster, riskier path? Let’s talk real estate strategies! #RealEstate #Investing #FinancialFreedom00Share
jhampton+FollowWould You Bet $1.2B on Just 3 Drug Stocks?Stanley Druckenmiller just put a massive $1.2 billion on only three healthcare stocks—Natera, Insmed, and Teva. Instead of spreading his chips, he’s all-in on genetic testing, rare disease drugs, and a big pharma comeback. The real drama? He ditched tech darlings like Nvidia to double down on healthcare innovation. If you’re looking for a fresh investing angle, maybe it’s time to peek at your medicine cabinet instead of your phone screen. #Business #Market #investing00Share
