About Joseph Carlson:

I am not a professional investor and have never claimed to be. I'm an amateur investor sharing my experience of what I've learned, where I have had success, and where I've had failures. I share my thoughts on investing and performance with transparency. My approach and goal to investing is to buy high-quality long-term investments in world-class businesses that I call "compounders". I view my investments as businesses, not as stocks. Before creating content on YouTube full time I worked as a senior-level programmer for 8 years. Over the years as a programmer, I compounded my knowledge of development. I take the same iterative learning approach to my study of investing. I study investing as a craft in the continual pursuit of being better. I will make mistakes in investment decisions from time to time. Results are not guaranteed. Please do not blindly follow me into any investments, and make sure your portfolio and investments are built around your specific income, risk tolerance, personality, and timeline, and overall circumstances.

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

The amount of bots in the comments pushing Financial Advisors is crazy

Purchasing a stock may seem straightforward, but selecting the correct stock without a proven strategy can be exceedingly challenging. I've been working on expanding my $210K portfolio for a while, and my primary obstacle is the lack of clear entry and exit strategies. Any advice on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

How can I make good profit as a beginner starting with $6, 000 ~is3

I have been a dividend focused investor for a long time. This does not mean I don't own growth stocks, I do. A well rounded portfolio should be a mixture of both categories. I invest in the market, but never put all my money in market.

The idea of investing a significant sum of money may be both thrilling and intimidating. There is potential for considerable wealth increase with the correct strategy. How can one take advantage of compound interest and potentially grow your retirement savings to about $1M over time?

I wish they taught investing at school level. There is so much advantage to doing this!
My biggest regret is that I started so late. And still not good at it, I think at this point i need help

I’ve always been an advocate of investing because it has paid off handsomely since I decided to dabble in it. I've seen my net worth grow exponentially over the past 2 years.

As an lnvesting enthusiast, I often wonder how top level investors are able to become millionaires off investing. . I’ve been sitting on over $545K equity from a home sale and I’m not sure where to go from here, is it a good time to buy into stocks or do I wait for another opportunity?.

I'm tired of these new buys every week, just to make up some assets with low percentage on my $236k portfolio and try to keep everything around 10%. Do you think these stocks you just mentioned are safe buys to outperform the market this year?

[GillerHeston]

Strong BUY. Still early innings. NVIDIA is the dominant leader in AI and the preferred technology partner globally. Even w new competition on the horizon, NVIDIA is far ahead of the competition. 85% market share. 76% margin. Unrivaled demand for new Blackwell chip. Demand far exceeds production for Blackwell through to 2025 and beyond. No competitor has anything close to Blackwell. And forward P/E is about 33 (cheap for a high growth stock). Buy this stock and wait. You will be rewarded.

Investing in stocks is planting a tree for your future; with patience, it will bear fruit

[MarjorieRyanJoy]

I'm just starting to invest, and honestly, I keep hearing so many mixed opinions about asset allocation. Some people swear by ETFs and index funds because of the broad market exposure, but others mention how underperforming stocks within them could dilute returns from stronger performers like palantir and nvidia. It’s got me wondering, should I be more selective with my choices, now? Especially since, almost as soon as I got started, I saw them mirror the market dips way too closely. I’m focused on hitting financial independence early and I’m not sure if being selective is smarter now, or if I’m just overthinking this

I started my 100k portfolio last year with SCHD, VOO, and VUG after watching one of your videos. In terms of share price, VOO is up! and VUG is doing even better. This year, I've tried to add some more assets but unfortunately facing a decline.

For those moving cash from money market to other assets given the Fed pivot, what are some income-producing assets (not physical real estate) that you are prioritizing over the next year to offset your loss in income?

[DonaldMark-nese]

The average stock in my portfolio has been cut in half, and the only way to make money this year has been to either short or to trade long in very short time frames. I'm still at a crossroads deciding if to liquidate my dipping $117k stock portfolio, what’s the best way to take advantage of this market?

[JamesScott]

My primary concern is how to grow my reserve of $300k which has been sitting duck since forever with zero to no gains, sure I know the risks of short term gains are much greater but if well managed one'd make a killing, am I wrong?

[DonaldStokes-p]

To be kinda blunt, I am giving up on investing in stocks... I put between 2000 to 3000 a month and it's nothing but down down.... frustrating and I only invest in boring big companies. How can I capitalize in such a market?

[alfredjones]

Impressive video coverage with trading, technical analysis skills alone are not enough; discipline and emotional maturity are also crucial for success. The saying "time in the market vs. timing the market" is a good mindset to have during market fluctuations. Thanks to Eugenia Eiland’s insights, daily trade signals, and my dedication to learning, I've been increasing my daily earnings. Keep it up!

Big Tech stocks will dominate 2025. Why I prefer NVIDIA is that they are better placed to maintain long term growth potential, and provide a platform for other AI companies. I know someone who has made more than 200% from NVIDIA. I'll also take these other recommendations you made.
