Biggest lesson i learnt in 2023 in the stock and crypt0 market is that nobody knows what is going to happen next, so practice some humility and follow a strategy with a long term edge.

In light of the impending recession and the fact that inflation is still far higher than the Fed’s target, few prominent market analysts have expressed their views on how terrible they believe the next downturn will be. I just need advice on what investments to make as l'm attempting to create a portfolio for my 15 year old son that will worth at least $500k before he turns 20

[Marie-LouiseArt]

It’s definitely time to re evaluate. Thank you ❤

[guitrygachelin]

Joseph great video . Thank you for making it. In the beginning of the video you mentioned about identifying trends. How do you identify early trends? In other words how could someone have identified the AI trend in the beginning of the year? Let us know. Thanks G

Insightful video. Ty! I’d love a comparison between the following fintech stocks: upstart, PayPal, Sofi and Hood. 🙏🙏🙏

[matheasy]

[paulevans]

Good video. How do you then take it to the step and work out what you believe is a fair price to pay for the stock please?

[alexsanon]

Thanks. Will use your teaching to analyze KSCP. Up 300% in the past month, but still down 35% over 1 year. Can I still get in and make money?

Hi Joe, in your bottom-up stock picking process, do you use a specific tool similar to predicted high and low as discussed in Uping Stock Prediction youtube channel? It seems that prediction tool could predict stock high and low prices in many situations. The daily fluctuation sometimes is really bad if there is no a good tool.

[larryb]

Really good video. I'd love to see you do a video on how to do a quick intrisic value analysis on a stock.

[Roamrovers]

Good video.. can you also make some videos on Current topic Digital dollar ?

[simonsupersad]

do you have a video for the top down investing ?

[graywolf]

Fundamentals! Themes and stock picks can change. But the fundamentals that govern why the market is doing what it does is hard to come by short of reading up on CFA.

I'm partly not sleeping because of TRIB. It went up 10% yesterday, but there seems to be only an undefined optimism that it might be able to continue; yet, why did it go up yesterday? I can't figure it out.

[StockTrapper]

Hey don’t know if you peep but you you put 56 instead of 53 Billion. Still thanks for the insight.
