Ramping up investments and videos this year - but it's all about YOU. What video do you want to see next? ETF? Stock Analysis? LMK and don't make me SMH but not commenting 😆

"Shaking My Head" that I didn't know about SMH. 😂🤦‍♂️

[loakland]

Love SMH 2.7% of portfolio. Still adding. XLK is 3.5%. NVDA is 1.9%. Tech will be around for a long time. Enjoy your video’s. Be well.

YOLO i went ALL in on SMH 45 DAYS AGO. I have around 800 shares of SMH and buy into it every week in my Robinhood Roth I.R.A. 🎉🎉💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💰💰💰💰💰

I'm big on SOXQ, pretty similar holdings considerably but lower expense ratio and higher dividend.

Been buying SMH since Feb. it’s an absolute no brainier. Great vid

[rendenwow]

Have been in SMH since December 2023. It is the best semi-conductor ETF hands down. If you want to get on the Tech/AI wave, this is the ETF to get into.

[BudgetBirdeye]

Love it! Semiconductors and chips are clearly leading the way… I think this tech bull market continues well into 2025

[JeromeMason-ibml]

Got 5 shares and just gonna let it ride already own 18 shares of Nvidia and 3 Broadcom figured I capture the whole growth of the semiconductor as a whole.

[m.r.itran.]

I am huge fan of SMH, I decided to hold it for the next 5 years 😍

[cjhodges]

Nice job. Thank you. I'm also looking at tangential ETFs like GRID and NLR. The key to these data centers is electricity.

[johnyyboii]

Bought this one before the AI hype back in 2021 and it’s been my best performing ETF 🚀🚀

[bmc]

Been holding VGT for a couple years now and getting tremendous returns. May look to add some SMH to my holdings as well. Theres some overlap in holdings so a little more research is needed in my case.

[nedaddy]

As soon as you said semiconductor ETF I was sold😅

[charlesbyrneShowCommentsall]

I have a small position in SMH and it has exploded in growth. I'm keeping it as a small percentage of my portfolio.

[centralgroupllp]

We also read stocks that will skyrocket late 2024 and 2025 tickers MRNA. PARA. UPST. BBY and TDOC.❤

Hi,
nice video exactly what i was looking for. I started investing in SMH this year and invested 10, 000 per month. I want to invest 100, 000 euros this year and see what I would continue to buy.

thanks again for this video

[ronbmor]

I heard XLK is rebalancing to add more Nvidia positions. I think it is a interesting option to invest in tech.

I’ve been an investor in SMH for a number of years and feel certain it will continue to grow fairly rapidly over the next 3 to 5 years. Bob mentioned AMD which is a competitor to NVDA but it’s not as large of a holding in SMH as QCOM (Qualcomm), it’s the 4th largest in the fund. To me, QCOM is a more interesting story than AMD which is more a director competitor to NVDA. NVDIA primarily focuses on graphic processing units (GPUs) gaming graphics and data centers. Qualcomm main focus is 1) mobile technology - selling GPUs to Apple as well as almost all the major Android makers as well. In addition they sell semiconductor processors for modems, and radio frequencies in addition to electric vehicles. Most recently announced a partnership with Microsoft where they’ll be integrating their Snapdragon X Elite semiconductors into various PC manufacturers including Microsoft Surface, Acers, ASUS, Dell, HP, Lenovo and Samsung. NVDIA definitely has a large part of the data center semi conductor market. However, from my perspective, Qualcomm is building a much larger more diverse set of customers which should help them be better positioned to weather the cycle.

Buying a stock is easy, but buying the right stock without a time-tested strategy is incredibly hard. Hence what are the best stocks to buy now or put on a watchlist? I’ve been trying to grow my portfolio of $560K for sometime now, my major challenge is not knowing the best entry and exit strategie;s ... I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.
