yes cease fire will eventually hold.. but high volatility. nowadays news spread fast and algorithms are programmed to sell or buy on news. hold for semis. not much cash to buy.. unless cease fire don't hold and large drop them I will buy.
I learnt to buy low and sell high. I learnt not to panic when markets are down I learnt that in the long run which probably 1 year out, new ATH again. I learnt to eat pop corns and watch the news I learnt to be entertained by Trump and bitter cry because his actions made everything more expensive.
yes. companies keep growing revenue and earnings. war will end. index keep pushing out lousy companies and bringing in profit making ones. index always go up long term. war and news are short term. inflation is real from money printing. money needs to go or held somewhere. where better than the stock market which is more liquid than property for example.
can last maybe 2 months max. but better than nothing. use slowly. eat bread everyday should be fine. oil price fast up, slow down. don't drive, just walk everywhere.
