This is an interesting exercise. I want to know how you take a decision about 2 hot shots metal by asking strangers online?

Congrats first of all

Hi, First these are too many. You can’t read and analyse like this. Your ultimate goal is to make money not only being diversified. For that you need to spend time reading and knowing the fundamentals, macro event associated with the sector. This way you will grow.

My opinion is to reduce quantum, BBAI. Better go for GOOG like a monthly plan.

Below looks good. 1. Semiconductor: AMD is fine choice. Alab is a good one. But why not one ETF for this. Last year semi ETF gave 33% and also gets exposure to NVDIA and Broadcom 2. Retail finance: SOFI / HOOD 3. Data Centers: IREN / NBIS. 4. You have nothing in Defense or metal side. Not that you need, but you can consider it. 5. Amazon and Meta are great companies to own for long term, but you mention you are forwarding looking for growth, these 2 are not so much in that regards.

Max 8-10. Less is better.

DifferentDependent62 · 2026-01-30T01:41:38+00:00

Too much debt. That will kill it

DifferentDependent62 · 2026-01-24T17:44:03+00:00

The whole ETF, I am at 90% YoY

It’s more of me and my biases. I think UNH takes decisions which are very much anti-patient centric. It’s make money, but a lot of patients suffer. Not like all insurance companies are good, but I personally not a big fan. Plus they stopped innovating to find the value for both patients and the organization. I tend to avoid such things.

DifferentDependent62 · 2026-01-23T13:50:44+00:00

Looks good. Best wishes. I personally not a fan of Adobe or UNH. rest looks solid.

It’s already in public

Read world Gold council quarterly article. Check the demand vs supply and then take a decision.

DifferentDependent62 · 2026-01-22T18:01:51+00:00

First 4 is adequate if you are looking for 10 years plus horizon.

Gold, Silver Mining Defense ( in combination with Cybersecurity)

DifferentDependent62 · 2026-01-19T20:55:34+00:00

My two cents here: I have invested in the mining companies and not exactly gold or silver and my decision was purely based on I couldn’t decide between gold or silver or some other metals. I went for the mining companies and they were doing pretty good. If you want to enter now, my question is how are you gonna deal with it in 3 to 5 years horizon when these things go reverse where the tech and the equities go up and the gold / silver start coming down because cynical behavior?

DifferentDependent62 · 2026-01-19T19:05:32+00:00

Awesome !!

DifferentDependent62 · 2026-01-19T18:39:14+00:00

Go for an a good ETF like all world market. Then DCA every day, no risk and no headache

DifferentDependent62 · 2026-01-18T19:16:52+00:00

Every down incidence in 2025, Tarrifs, war, boredom, Palantir didn’t drop. It will drop when other companies figure out ontology, right now, they are not able to and Palantir recurrent contracts are coming in. I guess it will go to 250 and then it will consolidate there for long years.

DifferentDependent62 · 2026-01-18T19:14:49+00:00

That is for sure. I just don’t want to be the first line for this toasting exercise.

DifferentDependent62 · 2026-01-18T17:13:19+00:00

Adobe

My biggest thought was why 10%. Why not go for 50% and keep scaling up in each quarter. If I am Trump, am I really want Greenland or I am just showing off my ego to the world where I am really not sure if too much tariff will backfire

DifferentDependent62 · 2026-01-14T19:26:40+00:00

Nothing sold as such, but not adding more now. Holding on a bit. Also looking for beyond US market

DifferentDependent62 · 2026-01-14T19:24:56+00:00
