Now I'm dca buying roughly 2k every week of whatever is on sale, and looking to add more tech positions to my portfolio. I'm looking to hold long term 15 - 20 years, so hopefully my lump sum buy in doesn't bite me in the ass long term.
In the past month, my "unexciting" index funds provided me with over $6,000 in dividends, giving me the option to spend without selling shares. Currently, I've opted to reinvest the dividends to acquire additional index funds for future growth.
I agree; I have approximately $1m in external retirement funds. I am debt free and have very little money in retirement funds compared to the total value of my portfolio over the past three years. To be honest, having a portfolio-advisor for investing is genius!
With $300K cash, invest in recession-resistant stocks from sectors like healthcare, utilities, consumer staples, and technology. Blue-chip, dividend-paying stocks with strong balance sheets are ideal. Consulting a financial advisor can refine your strategy.

I am surprised you aren’t covering MU. It’s basically at around 52 week low. Also I believe Micron is even cheaper than AMD. At 2x book value and you are getting enormous tailwinds in HBM growth and data center SSD.
I DCA'd into AMD the last 2 weeks. Concerned about tariffs though and a market correction. I would buy ADBE around $415 if it goes down that low. Trying to get the bottom bottom. Problem is ADBE has more competition now. Amd has much better revenue growth prospects due to GPU's than Adobe so it deserves a premium. If the revenue grows like we expect the price should go up. I feel your revenue growth for amd is way too low. If they get 8-10% of the gpu market the revenue will grow much faster than your estimate for amd. Amd revenue could grow 30-35%.
So Hershey has a PE of 26 and AMD a PE of 24? Then Hershey share dilution is not that important but AMD share dilution which is actually mergers and acquisitions they have made in the past 5 years is bad? Where in this do you see Principle-based Investing?? I respect this channel as I have learned some stuff here but sometimes the way things are thrown out are overboard!! Please look back at your principles a bit more throughly!
Was looking at Hershey's but they are getting killed because cocoa prices are killing them. No clue where cocoa prices are going to go? Rather than looking at so many numbers I look at the core reasons for price decline or appreciation.
Your DCF and analysis are completely broken there is always huge gap between low-mid-high and despite of recommending these stocks you are always bearish and they never reach any of your unrealistic price target you set. Your channel is a joke
A little harsh. While there are some gaps at times that seem overly large, more often than not EM is not ready to buy and has a wait to see mode.. If they were right everytime, well, they would be richer than Buffet. We all would.
@@hockeynutt9434 most of his positions that he stayed bearish had produced more than 100% over the past 5 years and have the same PE valuation. his thesis is very conservative, unrealistic and never realises because he is waiting for cheap valuations of companies with great potential for growth
This comment is a joke. The market is trading WAY above historical valuations so naturally their analysis would rate the majority of companies as overvalued. It doesn’t mean they’re not good companies and as a result we should keep them on our radar for when they do fall within attractive evaluations which is exactly what this channel is doing. These guys are looking for inefficiencies in the market (i.e. undervalued companies). In a market environment such as the one we’re currently in those are very difficult to come by. And if a company you’re interested in never drops within your strike price it’s okay to not buy them. Maybe they go gang busters and you miss out. That’s fine especially if you’d have to deviate from your valuation process to invest. Your job as an investor is NOT to hit it big on every hot stock. In fact you’ll probably miss most hot stocks because often times run ups are not predictable. Your job is to make smart moves using a disciplined process and make money consistently in the long run while avoiding major losses. Berkshire is sitting on over 300 Billion in cash right now because Buffett just doesn’t see many good opportunities right now to deploy it. Not saying you should sit on all cash but the level of selectivity successful investors have on stock buys is far beyond what you realize. Maybe you had a big success over a year or two making some speculative bets. But that success is not sustainable and you’re highly likely to get crushed by the market overall over a 5-10+ year horizon. Btw I bought Meta and Disney when their analysis showed them as good buys (not that I blindly followed their advice but that my own conclusions aligned with theirs) and I’ve made huge returns since. I do think they are sometimes susceptible to value traps as they sometimes put too much emphasis on pure financials like net income and free cash flow. But the average retail stock picker puts near zero research into any of those things and gets absolutely hammered as a result.
Always pricing these AI stocks with a PE of a retail stock so that the estimated values come out low. What a joke. Bet he's gonna reply "one love" or some bs
No analysis of AMD's Xilinx acquisition which incurs amortization costs and is the reason why the PE is so high and shares outstanding has increased. What a joke of a video.
I Hit 110k today. Thank you for all the knowledge and nuggets you had thrown my way over the last months. Started last month 2024.

I'm celebrating a $30k stock portfolio today. started this journey with 6k. I have invested on time and also with the right terms now I have time for my family and the life ahead of me
With stocks so expensive right now, the main aim for me is to make right value additions to boost my portfolio growth in this bubble ahead of 2025 with about 250 grand i have parked in the bank making nothing. What stocks should be on my watchlist?
The strategies are quite rigorous for the regular-Joe. As a matter of fact, they are mostly successfully carried out by pros who have had a great deal of skillset/knowledge to pull such trades off.
"DCA" is the golden term but the key. My dollar portfolio i DCA with is made up of 30% PLTR, 25% SCHD, 15% VOO and over 30% in digital assets, thanks to my CFA. This strategy is what works for my spouse and I. We've made over 80% capital growth minus dividends. Q3 taxable divs this year was $18,388.
Sure i don't mind. I've stuck with ‘’Zareen Grace Church” for years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look her up.
@ how do you figure? NVDA is a company that has shown legitimate triple digit growth. Trailing PE is 58x vs AMD at 110x, and AMD MIGHT grow 30% for a few years.

I find your situation fascinating. Would you be willing to suggest a trusted advisor you've worked with?
Her name is ‘’Aileen Gertrude Tippy’’ can't divulge much. Most likely, the internet should have her basic info, you can research if you like
I copied her whole name and pasted it into my browser; her website appeared immediately, and her qualifications are excellent; thank you for sharing.
I am holding a cash position right now, of about 300k. I know a dip is supposed to be the buying opportunity, so is AMD the best stocks to dive into?

I'm surprised that you just mentioned and recommended Helen Curtin, I met her at a conference in 2018 and we have been working together ever since.
The very first time we tried, we invested $2000 and after a week, we received $9500. That really helped us a lot to pay up our bills.
You trade with Helen Curtin too? Wow that woman has been a blessing to me and my family.
I'm new at this, please how can I reach her?
