    Yeah, I was a broke college grad in 2008-2009. I didn’t really have any money until the market started to come back in 2011.

    I was a freshman in 2008 with the intent of majoring in finance. Quickly did an about-face.

    What am I missing? I know the day started out with another fairly large drop but that looks to have almost evened out at this point, relatively speaking.
    I haven't been watching too closely though.

    Ive been reading we’re due for a huge correction everyday since I started investing years ago. There is ALWAYS someone saying it’s coming. Always. As it goes down people will say it’s going down further and as soon as it starts recovering people will begin predicting the next crash.

    They’re technically correct, one will happen at some point and again and again and again but people saying when are fools (except Hank of course)

    I have a stupid question...
    I know mutual funds are priced once a day at the end of the day. But I have to place any order before the market closes for the day.
    If I place an order to buy $1,000 worth of a mutual fund, I'm assuming that order is fulfilled at the re-priced amount after the market closes for that day. As opposed to the order being fulfilled based on the price at the time the order was placed (which would be before the re-price).

    Hopefully that question makes sense.

    To add to this, if you are interested in buying the funds immediately at a set price, look into an ETF based on the same index (or even the exact same fund sold as an ETF)

    Yeah pretty much that's how I have it setup. I have a mutual index funds in my Roth and my HSA. Then for my taxable brokerage I have ETF equivalents.
    From what I understand, the ETF can lessen taxable events in the brokerage.
