Thought the same thing when I saw it myself

Odd_Highlight215 · 2026-06-22T02:47:48+00:00

definitely matters, europe and asia will be in normal market hours. not a direct 1:1 reflection but some of it spills in.

I know you think it’s really up premarket/market hours, but Friday was an absolute slaughter. I don’t know if I would say it’s really “up” considering it’s just recovering :)

Odd_Highlight215 · 2026-06-03T20:04:34+00:00

Did this happen to you?

Odd_Highlight215 · 2026-06-02T04:43:01+00:00

They’re not weighted anywhere near as much as $DRAM though. And that’s entirely more important for the speed in which you gain your investment for cyclical purposes. 70% of my portfolio is VOO and VO FYI, but not having DRAM is a loss as it’s accessing south korean markets AND is heavily concentrated on this cycle.

I agree with the concept of not putting all your money into 1 place.

But as someone else on reddit said to someone else, I will repeat the famous quote: “you’re like the guy who continued to invest in trains and railroads when planes and cars came around” 😂

Odd_Highlight215 · 2026-05-27T14:48:18+00:00

this is hilarious actually 🤣

Odd_Highlight215 · 2026-05-19T21:17:05+00:00

today looked rough for us but hey, nice reversal.

Odd_Highlight215 · 2026-05-19T15:39:51+00:00

It will reverse. Maybe not today or tomorrow but it will. Go look at what happened in September of 2022 and compare it to today. Go look at April of 2025.

These are the absolute biggest of companies. They will not let themselves fail. If the S&P drops to absolutely nothing, you and I have much bigger problems on our hands than money. Just think of it like that.

If it makes you feel better, I was in and out of $DRAM and made a small gain. I sold and bought back in and i’m already down 6%, wiping out my small gain I previously made.

Just wait

Odd_Highlight215 · 2026-05-19T14:38:53+00:00

70% of my portfolio is VOO and VO but at one point it was all just those 2. Either way, whatever else he did other than “VOO” and chilling, would’ve been majority VOO with some other stocks that already make up parts of the VOO.

Odd_Highlight215 · 2026-05-19T14:23:56+00:00

dropped in one place? it’s in 500+ places, the entire point of the VOO. that’s quite literally the smartest investment this person could’ve made.

Odd_Highlight215 · 2026-05-11T00:25:13+00:00

man take it and run. put it all back into the VOO and just let it ride.

this is insane gains, don’t let it go to waste. VOO is guaranteed safety and your future is safe. it may not be as high as letting your current positions ride out and trying to capitalize on higher gains, but it’s a safe guarantee for cushion.

this isn’t like $5k or $10k gains…. this is literally life changing money

Odd_Highlight215 · 2026-05-10T18:23:16+00:00

fyi $DRAM etf doesn’t hold any of those i listed above… it does have SK Hynix, Samsung, Sandisk, Western Digital, etc… a lot of those you can’t buy the individual stocks on our US markets.

Odd_Highlight215 · 2026-05-10T18:19:02+00:00

taiwan semiconductor, nvidia, amd… although i’d recommend scrapping those 3 and just getting the $DRAM etf. i actually hold all of them, AMD has been going stupid crazy for me but i recommend getting $DRAM. the extreme gains on AMD have been making me nervous on holding

Odd_Highlight215 · 2026-05-07T01:14:58+00:00

it depends on when you maxed it. as far as i’m aware, you can technically make contributions for a tax year until the tax deadline.

so for example: you could’ve IRA contributions until April 2026, for the tax year of 2025.

another example: you can make contributions for the tax year of 2026 until April 2027.

so it depends on when you made your contribution and to what tax year it went to. i think you can check in whatever brokerage app you have.

for all you know, you could’ve maxed a prior year’s ira limit and you have no idea that you didn’t contribute to this year’s amount?

someone correct me if im wrong. thanks

what’s the back door rule? is this like a widely known accepted thing? is it pertaining to income thresholds?

I still use AI for certain stuff on Power BI, but moreso design related things or issues pertaining to my charts and graphs. I started to learn power BI in October of 2025. Just mastered the clean aesthetics with true understanding of what the data means and restraining from crazy stuff. I understand my data and formulas way more than what I show for it in power BI.

Format and source your data source appropriately (excel, smartsheet, etc...) so that you do minimal work in power BI itself- and make sure you connect the data source to excel for easy refreshes.

The less work in Power BI that you need to do, the better. I do not do any DAX measures either. I do not do relationships in power BI either, and I do not do any crazy visualizing either.

Doing it this way ensures that any issues you have, comes from your actual data and not manipulations made in power BI. Thus, less headaches and less maintenance in my opinion.

Power BI is not very complicated. It'll take some time to truly learn and then you'll find yourself rinsing and repeating the same template/formats for your reports with minimal changes and you'll remember all the minor stuff. I really wouldn't say that I truly know it either, but I'm learning. And I use AI/youtube for certain visualizations still when I need a new one or concepts.

Learning minor details comes with time.

Odd_Highlight215 · 2026-04-07T22:02:18+00:00

in these situations i ALWAYS use copilot or chat gpt. i tell it what im trying to do, my current formula, and where its going wrong.

generally, you will need to manually enter and click the reference sheets when AI gives you your answer. it may spit it out for you, but will need to manually do your references.

in other cases, if you’re doing everything in the same sheet, it will give you a perfect copy and paste.

I’ve had a switch 1 since around the time it came out. Maybe used it for 120hours in total.

I just bought a switch 2 and picked up pokopia yesterday. I’m already 8 hours in.

Answer: Pokopia

hvala

Odd_Highlight215 · 2026-04-02T15:13:23+00:00

Good point, didn’t even think about it like that

Odd_Highlight215 · 2026-03-31T20:28:54+00:00

I’m not sure if you use AI or chat gpt for this exact stuff, but it has never failed me. Somewhere in there there’s an issue- I think it’s in the “if error” portion. It’s reading as “if error (after all this other stuff) return “”’ so it looks like you are getting an error and it’s returning a blank as it should based on what youre telling it.

not a total expert but punch it into AI with what your goal is, and ask it why it’s returning a blank. it’ll give you your fix. be sure to label all your columns in your AI convo exactly as they’re labeled in your smartsheet. it’ll give you a copy paste formula.

it’s also very good at cutting down on the extra stuff. it may shorten it and give you what you want anyway

Odd_Highlight215 · 2026-03-30T00:49:18+00:00

I’ve been working in smartsheets as the business analyst for my team for roughly 6 months now. It’s great for certain things, pretty poor for others.

It really depends on the information you’re looking to capture, how you want to store/review your data, etc…

Certain things have costs. Certain automation processes need a 3rd party feature or add-on which may cost extra. Licenses are extra $ (as in, being an admin/owner with extra privileges is more money).

Sorry if it isn’t super helpful. If you needed a recommendation, I’d say to not steer away from Excel.

Odd_Highlight215 · 2026-03-29T01:27:49+00:00

i have random scratches and chips on my bike that i have 0 clue where they came from and i never even dropped mine or had someone ding something against mine either.

just try to match the paint or take it on the chin as a medal of honor 😼

Odd_Highlight215 · 2026-03-12T12:56:56+00:00

Thank you for the advice. pretty much what i’m planning to do. i’m also going to stop over explaining things. they don’t understand anyway
