My plan for when the squeeze is squoze

Disclaimer: This is not financial advice Warning: This may be a very boring post, as it contains high levels of boomer stocks and high dividend yield.

I'm posting my plan here to invite criticism, I want to know if my plan is sound and what holes there are in my logic, or what complications I may not have seen. Obviously it's highly speculative, we don't know what impact a crash may have internationally, and how high GME go. My whole plan is working on the presumption that GME does squeeze and the market (at least the US market) crashes/dips. My reason for posting it here is because I have never had a large portfolio of investments even though I've traded with my savings for a while and made a small profit. I think many people are in the same boat and the input from the community can help educate inexperienced investors.

So, when GME is squoze and I take my tendies, I will move approximately 25% into an market index ETFs (Such as the S&P500). I will also invest amounts in blue-chip stocks individually, my choices are MMM, AAPL, AMZN, CAT, KO, KHC, IBM, BLK, XOM, HAS, INTC, K, LMT, PFE, ARE and LNT. I chose these because they're highly unlikely to fuck up and go out of business, they yield good dividends and are either individually diverse, or fit in with each other to diversify my selection. Imo these are all great to hold long term, and in the event of a crash, they will recover without a problem, even if it takes some time.

All stocks mentioned so far have been US stocks, however if the crash hits international markets, there's a chance to profit on international stock, if it doesn't, it's good to be well diversified. So my picks for outside the USA follow the same logic and they are as follows, AZN (AstraZeneca), AV (Aviva), GAW (Games Workshop), BA (BAE Systems), GSK (GlaxoSmithKline), LLOY (Lloyd's Banking Group), TSCO (Tesco), ULVR (Unilever), SBRY (J Sainsbury), RDSA (Royal Dutch Shell), DGE (Diagio), WCMK (WCM AG), VNA (Vonovia), TLG (TLG Immobilien), LEG (LEG Immobilien), DIC (DIC Asset (giggity)), DWNI (Deutsche Wohnen), AOX (Alstria Office), VOW (Volkswagen), ZURN (Zurich Insurance Group), UBSG (UBS), EDF (Electricite de France), AKZA (Akzo Nobel). In addition there's RY and TAK which are on the US market but are international companies.

This is just my current list, if you have any criticisms as to why I should not invest in any of these or why I should choose others, it is welcome. I will not take it as financial advice, I will do my research and make my own conclusions.

I also plan on portioning off some cash for investing in crypto and metals, so far I haven't had the time to really look into what the right play is, but physical gold and silver is the obvious choice, as well as investing into the mining of certain metals. With crypto I'm working on the assumption Bitcoin and Etherium are safe bets too. But again I'll have to do more research, I just think it's sensible to diversify into these areas.

Once GME returns to earth, or at least earth's orbit I will absolutely put a decent portion back in because I like the stock.

Let me know your thoughts, if I've broken any rules in this sub I apologise and will try to change the post if the mods let me know how I fucked up.

Again not financial advice, just my plan.
