What companies are you guys investing in?

[Richard I]

I am already hodling onto high growth companies on their way to the moon, but want to hear what some other people are investing in.

In many ways the above is actually true.
A rather large part of my portfolio is in defence stocks.
EFT´s are good for a more rounded investment. I have a few big pharma and ai ones as well..

Overall the biggest grownt have been defence and AI sticks.. my big pharma have been stable for many many years.

I invested in many game publishers and developers as well (not just microsoft, but also invested into ie. Paradox)

Overall there is solid returns and next to no risk.. I would always recommend to start with an EFT, rather than go singular and I would advice for long investment, albeit if you don´t care, shorting and low span, can yield rewards too.

Investments are kind of like lottery, I don't take risks.

Holding cash is an even greater risk, because you lose no matter what.

While this is true, it is always good to have a safe under a floorboard.

Np. You betcha.

I would argue, its better to invest in useful items, that most likely would not lose value, even in a nuclear winter situation.

This brings me back to the shotgun and canned foods.

I don't like that buying a company's products doesn't also buy me into their pyramid scheme. Certainly all the products I have purchased over the years has contributed to multiple bottom lines and the thanks I get? A buy one get one on a pack of cigarettes. Well, america's corporations, actions speak louder than words and I see where you place my value. This may not have the effect you think it may.

Well, you aren't having fun unless you need bail, but I guess thats just me being a car enthusiast.

Cars are among the worst investments you can possible do.

Which defense stocks would you recommend? I know Boeing is dead in the water. But I can see Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman being worthwhile.

All in AMZN.

Those Bezos bucks will come in handy when Amazon takes over the world.

Amazon is slowing, but is still having above average returns. I always stayed out because I thought there was only so much room to grow, seems I'm wrong.

Yeah, I was just joking around. I'm not holding Amazon right now. I did swing trade it, picking it up when it was sub $90 a share, then flipped it. Also flipped Nvidia when it was $188 a share. Both, and many other tech stocks, within the last couple years. If I would have just held them, would be up A LOT more.

For now, I'm just into some nice blue chip dividend stocks. I'm not gonna name drop anything I'm holding though for my own reasons.

I think it's important not to be desperate and think you gotta get in on something now. There's always good opportunities if you're willing to look around and do the research. A lot of things are cyclical.

If you got a bunch of money to invest in stocks, you really should rather be investing in your own business or capitol.

And if you already have a business that makes money, wouldn't it also be prudent to put the profits to work further in your favour?

Because you could make more actually being active with that money instead of turning it into passive income.

Not to mention the only benefit in stocks is the profit, which is always a gamble no matter what the charts look like.

That's great advice for people who have the expendable income to save up 100k. But I'm one of those $40 a week (at best) people who would never see 100k even if I did safe investments for the rest of my life.

Either I get rich at the casino or I die poor.

the following depends on your willingness to take risks and somewhat on aptitude

i am a high school dropout and some think that is the end of the road, but...

i got my GED through a work-training program, joined the military and got great training that transferred to the civilian world

then i kept getting certifications and job hopped to increase pay while investing along the way

i am set up for retirement now but i still enjoy the work and the pay is good

if i can do this, others can also

There is a financial book that everyone should read titled "the psychology of money" and the author goes over this one fact: Money is emotion. And this is so true. People go into debt because they want to impress others. Purchasing cars and homes that they can't afford will lead to a broke life. But they look fancy. Its why when I see a new car, I know that the person, especially if he or she is young, is probably living paycheck to paycheck. I work part time at a gas station. It pays for my meals while I use my investments for my big items like rent. Anyway. I work with a few guys who have $40k cars and make $16 an hour. Doesn't compute. they are all living at home with their parents and are in their 30s. In the end they will all pay the price for not investing in themselves. Which is the greatest investment anyone can make.

Nothing. I save money and buy apartments to rent. Whatever happens, people will always need a place to live, and also the value of real estate doesn't go down.

I'm looking into doing something similar myself one day, that's arguable better than stocks.

I do the opposite of investing. These are the companies that are never getting my money again.

*Blizzard
*Microsoft
*Valve
*Bethesda
*EA
*Every movie studio
*Netflix
*Amazon prime

That's not all of them those are just the ones I can remember off the top of my head.

Come on man, Bethesda? Fallout is amazing how could you not?

Theres also another crypto boom atm. Their cards are in high demand because of both markets having booms at once.

Crypto bubble will likely pop in the next 3-12 months. And "AI" will probably pop in 3 or so years (training takes forever, and any scenario it hasnt been trained on is chaos. People dont understand the cost yet)... Nvidia is an obvious, and loosely predictable, bubble at this point.

AMD has been overvalued for a significant amount of time now tho. Intel has much higher market share of the cpu market, but a much lower stock price. And nvidia has the high end gpu market on lock for the next 5 years minimum, and probably longer, because they have very obvious moves that they can make to significantly increase the performance of their current architechture. These cards could do so much more with a larger bus width and double the vram. And nvidia does not seem to be done adding to and improving the architecture either.

AMD is overvalued. I would like to buy in, but i wasnt into stocks around the ryzen 1st-2nd gen days. Which was the key time to buy in. Soon should be the time to dump it lol. Intel should have stable footing in the gpu market in the next 3-5 years (as in performance, not market share). And theyre due for a big redesign in the cpu space. As AMD very slowly chips away at the install base, they obviously havent been in a rush.

Crypto boom is in focus, even though BTC has doubled recently. Still on track to go up. Other cryptos are likely to pop, not really sure if BTC ever will. It is volatile, will likely have some large corrections, then even larger bouncebacks.

I'm big on $MSTR right now. Michael Saylor's strategy is really smart and I think it has a long way to go.

I mean crypto is volatile, because the entire thing is a ponzi scheme with nothing backing it lol

That bubble will continue to fill and pop until its outlawed (unlikely) or people realize its all manipulation and worthless (gonna take a while. Might as well profit off it).
