RE: So, Steemizens, What's Your Stocks Game?
I think buying stocks after a 10year bull run is probably not the smartesrät move. I would wait for the next big corection in the market and than diversify into different companied from many sectors. Buy cheap and sell high not the other way around.

Then, the most important thing would be to have liquid funds when opportunity arises.
It’s awful when everything is down and you find yourself without the capital to pick things up.
I did convert most of my stocks into bond ETFs after the last correction. Taking seriously the warnings of analysts about frighteningly high multipliers (all those fancy P/Xs). But when I checked what the multipliers were before & during the last housing prices, I realized I was played the fool by all those talking heads.
If a stock's fundamentals are good, and are expected to get even better, it'll probably still be a good buy, since there doesn't seem to be any reason for a recession in the near future (next 2-3 years). And Stocks can rise quite a lot in that time.
But I'm still going to keep about 30%-50% of my funds in low(ish) volatility assets, to convert them to stocks after a bear market persists.
One thing I hadn't looked into enough, is the claim that corporate debt is at dangerous levels, which supposedly can expedite a downturn if interest rate rise, or consumer\business spending decreases too much.
