Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and similar instruments such as exchange-traded notes (ETNs) have typically been the best strategies for long-term investment. Even generic funds such as SPY (which tracks the S&P 500 index) earned investors an average annual return of 10-11% since mid-20th century. An even greater revenue (around 15%) can be earned from specialized funds such as RPG, whose basket only includes stocks from companies with high growth rates.

However, COVID-19 has changed this. The indices plummeted in February and March, and, even though they have mostly recovered by now, they have not earned their investors significant profits yet.

By Dorothea 3 days ago

It’s across the street from the Chevy dealership he owns.

Over the last few years, Mark Wahlberg has expanded his resume from actor to businessman. He has Wahlburgers, a string of casual burger joints and bars, works with a health and wellness company, and owns a Chevy dealership in Columbus, Ohio. Today, his business empire is expanding with another dealership purchase – a Buick-GMC operation right across the street from his Mark Wahlberg Chevrolet shop, according to Automotive News.

Wahlberg’s expanding business operations also include an Airstream and RV dealership in the same city. It’s been renamed as Mark Wahlberg Airstream & RV, and we’re sorry if you were expecting a different name. If Wahlberg’s new purchases are like his Chevy dealership, there’ll likely be a large “W” logo, the same signature signage on his restaurants, letting the world know who owns it.

Being a black entrepreneur in the UK for me means, in most instances, I have to work twice as hard to be in
