Jim Hitt, CEO Of American IRA-A National Self-Directed IRA Services Company, Comments On USA Today Article, Dow Drops 280, Barely In Black For '15
Charlotte, NC (PRWEB) April 20, 2015 -- According to the USA Today article dated, 4-17-2015 and titled 'Dow Drops 280 Barely in Black for '15, "The Dow Jones industrial average ended down 1.5%, or 280 points. The blue-chip index had earlier dropped more than 300 points to dip into the red for 2015 but is now barely in the black for the calendar year."
Jim Hitt of American IRA, says "This is why we stress the importance of diversification within Self-Directed IRAs. Stocks can and have been lucrative investments and many people have stocks as a 'portion' of their Self-Directed IRAs. Still it is critically important for individuals to hold a variety of assets within their Self-Directed IRAs so that their retirement future is not solely dependent upon the success of one asset type."
The USA article says "Europe markets saw steep declines on Greece jitters, with Germany's DAX tumbling 2.6% -- 310 points. France's CAC 40 sank 1.6%, while the FTSE in Britain finished down 0.9%. The Stoxx Europe 600 index, a continent-wide gauge, fell 1.8%."
The American IRA team knows that this brings home the point that they stress in all the training they offer to both clients and the general public and that is 'investing in what individuals know and understand' is the best scenario for their investment portfolio. If individuals like stocks, that is fine. They can invest in stocks inside their Self-Directed IRA and realize the added tax advantage of doing so within a retirement account. The critical point is that they shouldn't have 'just' stocks inside their account, but instead should add other assets types that they know and understand. Some options are: real estate, private lending, precious metals, private companies, partnerships & joint ventures, tax liens & tax sales, and more.
