Investing into these etfs for the long term helps to mitigate individual stock risks while still managing a high single to mid double digit growth a year. Insights: Market continues to pull back following Iran&#39;s threats on the Strait of Hormuz as oil prices spike. Dollar strengthens ahead of FED&#39;s meeting. Jerome Powell&#39;s speech will play a big part in where the market will be moving tonight.
