I'm in the same boat with some of the same stocks, S&P has been trouncing me lately. But I beat it for several years running prior to that, just got to play the long game and stick to your investing philosophy.
Let's say you're right and there is a fiscal crisis in the US which leads to hyperinflation like in Argentina or the Weimar Republic - you certainly do not want to be in cash or bonds. You want to own real assets like real estate or companies that have pricing power.
Buy the S&P 500 when the equity risk premium is above 6%! 2020 was a great buying opportunity.
Just another data point showing the general market is not very attractive. Agree on looking for individual companies, it is what I said to Blake earlier in the thread. Putting some money into treasuries could make sense as well.
It’s the gap between the S&P 500’s earnings yield (inverse of P/E ratio) and the yield on the 10-year Treasury note.

It's a little sad. I would have loved to own some Space X before it was merged into twitter and xAi as a pure play space exploration company (at a reasonable valuation of course).
