Retired, tired, safety oriented elderly low income investor. Retired enlisted military. Have studied medicine and business and been an ultra conservative investor for 30 years.
Elderly conservative investor needing income from safest stocks. I also maintain an awareness of pullbacks with midcap stocks and, a somewhat higher beta like HRB (10% of portfolio). Finally, will carefully consider only a very slight % of modest portfolio in a growth stock with a horizon of 2 -5 years.
No option/short trading. I maintain a heavy emphasis on safety without a view toward "hitting it big". The bulk of my portfolio is and will remain in a company with a sustainable dividend, excellant cash flow, within ...More recession proof industries other than high tech.
