Broadcom is a well-positioned chipmaker despite trade war headwinds due to its valuation, dividend and a strong management track record, according to Nancy Tengler of Tengler Wealth Management.

If you are exhausted (as I am) watching the markets go up and down on a tweet, perhaps you should step back from the day to day kerfuffle which is the stock market and take a fresh look at your goals. 

Goal-based investing is nothing more than establishing separate objectives for separate life events. This is much saner for the average investor than simply trying to beat an arbitrary index. Retirement 40 years in the future calls for one plan, while college education for your kindergarten child or grandchild requires an entirely different plan. These discreet pools of money with diverse goals may sound confusing but the concept doesn’t have to be.

Many people I meet believe it is too late to invest. Men and women, young and old. Bull market or bear market. They feel they have missed the boat or believe they are too old or that stocks are too expensive or, worse, are convinced they don’t have enough money. Add to that most people don’t feel proficient in investing or believe they simply don’t have the time. 

Kraft Heinz is hurting, and the pain is likely to persist, some traders say.

The core staples stock plummeted more than 8% Thursday, tumbling to an all-time low, after the company posted a steep sales decline and report $1.22 billion in charges and writedowns.

Uber hit the skids after the bell Thursday. 

The ride-hailing company reported a quarterly loss of more than $5 billion, its deepest ever, while sales growth fell to a record low pace. 

The Janitor Worth $8 Million

I often use the example of the janitor, Ronald Read, who worked at JC Penney’s as well as a side job as a gas station attendant. At the time of his death at age 92 in 2014 he had an estate worth $8 million.

For investors, it is nearly impossible to make sense of the daily news.

Consumer confidence is high, job growth (though slowing) is still strong, company spending on capital equipment has slowed and the Fed cut rates but is not panicked about a recession. Then suddenly our tweet-happy president, Donald Trump, announced new tariffs on China against the advice of his own economic policy team.
