So with the events with Brexit, do you wait until next week to put money in Blue Chip/ETF's or do you do it today?
I am leaning on waiting until next week to put more money in the market to see what the EU's response/actions will be. I would think they will be harsh on English commerce.

Commodities not count in this competition? OJF17 shot up and is at ~171, so +17.9%
I'll be buying incrementally for the next week probably. Today is the shock day, if you're going to make some quick plays today is the day to do it. There's going to be some rollercoaster for the next couple of weeks IMO.
Yeah, today is the biggest high risk/high reward day, and there will be some of that until it all sorts out.
if you take your $1,500 bet and i take my $1,500 bet and we go to vegas i bet we'd have a better time and we don't even know each other.
I'm most likely looking at going in on an ETF (S&P 500 Growth), probably keep the money there for a couple years.
What are some individual stocks others are looking at?

So you have a short term investment timeline (2 years) but you’re planning to invest in a growth fund which as an asset class that generally is considered a long term investment vehicle. Can you explain your strategy behind this?

Something that is stable but can get a decent return over the next two years. I would be investing in IVW. This event right now is an opportunity to get a little extra bump when things shake out and the media/market isn't focused on this. This would be money used to redo my kitchen in my house, which I plan on doing in about 2 years. This would probably be about half of the total I plan on investing.
I am also trying to find individual stocks that I want to invest more money in to that are higher risk.
Also, 1 year and less is considered short term. I am looking medium term.
By technical definition, yes, 12 months or less is considered short-term. That said, describing a growth fund as "stable" or expecting it to react that way, seems a bit counter to conventional investment wisdom. I've seen shorter term portfolios include SOME equity exposure to help boost overall returns. But going 100% (targeting kitchen remodel expense as goal) and expecting stable growth with only a 2-year time horizon seems to be putting an extreme amount of faith in the direction of the market.

Perfect timing for their employees as well as long as this sticks to quarter end.
I bought some way back at about $9/share then sold it at $15. few months later it was at $30.
we can never time the market and the crash was the world's best buying opportunity. i buy dips now.
Looks like we are finishing Not Off the Lows.. Usually reaction moves will last 2-3 time periods. Days in this case. But depending how much support we break may point to test some lower support levels. May end up being the sharp sell off that I've been waiting for that gets most people on the wrong foot and I can finally buy into the market.
