[What do you read for financial news?]

Post by Old Oil Field »

Since going to a three fund portfolio, I have continued my subscription to Barrons, Morningstar, and Skousen. I am wondering if I should just drop them and get my financial news off the tv or the net. At least I wouldn't be tempted as much to buy an individual stock.

whatever prevents tempting you from buying individual stocks, unsubscribe.

there's no additional investment value to be had from t.v. and most of what's on the internet is of little to no value.

once you've discovered the three fund portfolio, everything else you might need to know about (tax loss harvesting), etc. can be found at bogleheads.org.

you've found the promised land.

don't overcomplicate things. it doesn't help.

I stopped watching or looking at the market or news about the market. It's pointless because I have a plan and just stick to it

For financial news I use Morningstar and this forum.

I read the Wall Street Journal and several other newspaper, but that's primarily for general news.
