Trying to understand stocks

[Anonymous No.14517503]

So if I understand correctly, alot of mutual funds try to aim for on average 5-6% returns in a year. So does this mean that if I put 1000 in a mutual fund, without considering fees I would make 50 bucks?

And if this is true you mean to tell me that days where my portfolio goes 10-20% are days where I have beaten an entire mutual funds yearly gains in just one day?

Damn why not just by s&p or leveraged s&p. Shit would be 12%-30% annual return and pretty safe. Who uses mutual funds ffs

Because that's way less volatile than fucking magic internet money. You should only invest in mutual funds if you have a shitton of money and even then there's still better investments to be made

Those gainz are safe bets for big money (BIG MONEY)...$100M+

You move onto those onve you've actually made it. Til then, it's more high risk high reward -crypto, real estate, entrepreneurship, etc-
