Opportunities in this market dip

US Market & Sectors
1

Markets have taken a small hit. What’s your strategy? Do you see any good opportunities here to invest or waiting for it to drop more?

2

Nvidia, Microsoft, and Google might still be long-term winners. If they drop another 10-15%, it’s a golden buying opportunity. But its still a good buying opportunity right now.

For the first time in years, US treasuries (T-bills) are yielding over 5% with no risk. Might be a safe bet for preserving capital.

  • $SGOV (iShares 0-3 Month T-Bill ETF) → Same as above.
  • $TBIL (US Treasury 3 Month Bill ETF) → Direct exposure to 3-month T-bills.
  • $SHV (iShares Short Treasury Bond ETF) → Holds 0-1 year T-Bills.

I am personally looking for some sort of stable income right now.

Would recommend looking at strong dividend-paying stocks (Pepsi, J&J, P&G) if you want stability and passive income. Its quite volatile market and can’t say if it will drop more given the circumstances.

@Ramya 's suggestion also works, but be careful, T-bills don’t yield more than 5% anymore.

Here are the latest returns on t-bills

  • 4-week: 4.32%
  • 8-week: 4.34%
  • 3-month: 4.33%
  • 6-month: 4.32%
  • 1-year: 4.19%
