Let me put it this way. I would rather see the American economy growing rather than shrinking, but our present structure of governance won't allow for a growing economy. The economy is shrinking every day now and will not stop until the Fascist in the White House and the Fascist members of the Legislature are taken down. With the shrinking economy, my strategy for investing in the market is not quite as laid back as it would be with a growing economy. I would rather be investing in a more diversified way with the choice of some growth stocks. For now, I have to settle for primarily dividend stocks that the Fascist in the Fascist in the White House has not taken the dividend away to return the wealth to the rightful owners. I own stocks that I believe are more likely to survive in the Market jungle and the heavy hand of the Fascist in the White House as the competition is taken down and moves in the direction of a Government monopoly of the American economy. BTW I am fully invested with a strategy, and riding the train in a very profitable seat in first class and by the window to boot so I can see what is going on. Good investing.
