Where to Put Your Savings These Days (Some Options–Not a Comprehensive List!)

Some interesting figures from Neil Cavuto’s program yesterday. Here’s what he had:

Oct. 12, 2022 to Oct. 14, 2024:
Dow         ↑ 47.4%
NASDAQ   ↑ 63.8%
S&P 500   ↑ 77.6%
—————————————————————————-
Here’s what I’ll add (Oct. 12, 2022 to Oct. 14, 2024):
Gold    ↑ 58.5%
Silver  ↑ 63.25%

Obviously one can’t invest in averages and indices but rather funds that attempt to imitate their performance.  Here are a few for comparison purposes (Oct. 14, 2022 to Oct. 14, 2024):
Vanguard 500 (VFIAX)                  ↑ 63.5%
Vanguard Total Market (VTSAX)     ↑ 60.8%
Vanguard Growth (VIGAX)            ↑ 88.2%
Vanguard Tech (VITAX)                 ↑ 102.1%

It should go without saying or writing, but gold and silver, unlike Vanguard shares, are tangible and can be kept anywhere.  Hence the devotion in so many areas of the liberty realm/movement.
