Is 6% too high to trade stocks on margin?
Okay so we are assuming that you can sustain 6% or more return on your investments.   Personally I would compare that rate to what lines of credit are going for and do what ever is least expensive.   Either way your risk is the same.  Your net worth is the same.  Your assets will be the same. Your liabilities will be the same. Its just a matter of who you owe it to and what the rate is. Don't be afraid of having a second mortgage.  If the stocks go down either way you have to sell what's left and pay your debt. Or what I should maybe say is don't be more afraid of a line of credit more than margin in your investment account.
