Interesting game…..

Rumble is a competitor to youtube, that is not biased against conservative media/information like google/youtube is. It actually has a higher subscriber rate than tiktok, and right leaning media outlets/social media are all moving to that platform. Got it at a good price as it dipped back in November, and I knew it was way undervalued.

As of today (when i write this) my now largest holding LCID is up 43% today (was hanging over 100% earlier in the day), as a rumor that the Saudi Investor is going to buy it out. This stock is going to be a rollercoaster for the foreseeable future. Not sure what happens in the game, after an investment goes private.

Your stocks are way up today, I doubt I will catch up anytime soon. LCID is up 89% and RUM way is up too. We were close this morning, but not anymore. I am still happy to be #2, with newporttom, right on my tail. It’s an interesting contest, I am a very different stock picker than you, but I am still doing well. It’s interesting to see what other posters pick, my stocks are mainstream, while others chose stocks that are riskier. It depends on if you personally own the stocks you chose, it’s easy to take risks when it only play money.

Your stocks are more mainstream, but likely have a lot less chance to have a downside. TSLA sure is on a run, I thought it was a goner down below $100 but I was absolutely wrong. Actually had puts on it from $150 down to $110, but its very resistant. Big things could happen with NVDA, that's going to be a fun to watch.

The stocks i picked for mine are all what I'm actually invested in real life. Either going to be eating filet mignon or ramen soup.

Looks like we are crushing the S&P 500 this year so far.

Do you remember a couple years ago right before Tesla split? It was on fire priced over $1,000 a share. I bought it hoping to make a quick profit, I was getting ready to build a house. This was when the price of lumber was at its peak. Tesla dropped 100 points a few days after I bought it and I got out, but at a loss. I am still kicking myself over that trade. After I sold it at $300, it went up to $1,000. I was not happy.
So even though I think Tesla will continue to go up, I am not in it. I don’t like getting burned.

I have owned Apple since 2011, and sold 3/4 of it in September at 172. I recently added 1,000 shares at 131, and I bought 400 shares of NVDA at an average price of 128.

I would have put 100% on NVDA, but the contest rules said we needed a minimum of 3 stocks. Like you said, my stocks probably won’t drop much, and now that I know you own your stocks, I hope they continue to go up. I don’t want you eating Ramen noodles.
Good luck,
Donna

Put it all in gold last year and haven't looked back.


A little silver too.


Our global economy is going to be experiencing turbulence for the better part of the next decade (at least) in my opinion.

As long as you got something good in exchange for it... Cash has been TRASH, but so has everything else lately.

This is a stock picking contest, so gold would not qualify.
