  • I think it’s almost always wise to buy the dip. The article suggests otherwise but buying the dip is basically like going back in time x days/weeks/months. Statistically, the likelihood of the stock going back to pre-dip levels is very high. That time may be long or short, doesn’t matter. The best dip buying cases for quick money are when the entire market is shaken up by something that happens to 1 company, like the United Health CEO, all pharma companies lost ~15% for no apparent reason. Safe to say I would have made some money if I had bought it, but I didn’t want to invest in CVS.





  • The level of disillusion in the thread is insane. At no point in time is it a good idea to recommend Arch and it’s derivatives to Linux newbies. They will 100% wreck their install in the first two weeks. Even I, as a pretty experienced user had to wipe my arch install after failed update attempts, luckily I had a separate home partition. Anything else like fedora or tumbleweed will provide packages that are very up to date, but that are also tested. For example I don’t fear that updating my fedora install will completely brick the networking of my system like what happened to me on arch.

    Ironically I wouldn’t recommend any Ubuntu derivatives as for some reason, every single time I’ve installed Ubuntu or one of its variants like PopOS they ended up messed up in some way or another, albeit never as critical as Arch did to me numerous times. Probably some kind of PPA issues that make the system weird because it’s always the fault of PPAs
