A healthy portfolio needs three essentials: ETFs for diversification, cash-flow assets like dividend stocks, and leading tech stocks such as NVDA, GOOGL, and AMD. While I can't provide personalized advice, consulting a reliable advisor is crucial for proper investment planning.

Although I hold stocks in PLTR, AMD, and TSLA, I'm worried about safeguarding my $535, 000 portfolio against a possible financial reset in 2025. But i think NVDA would be the stock of the year. Any suggestions?

I'm 55 years old with not enough set aside for retirement at this point. I have always been curious about the market and have witnessed people who played the game right and retired early. Some claimed they started very small, but their portfolio grew over time. I do have a significant amount but I’m unsure about which strategies or approach to take in order to achieve good returns. I'm open-minded and would appreciate any help or guidance

Amazing video, A friend of mine referred me to a financial adviser sometime ago and we got to talking about investment and money. I started investing with $150k and in the first 2 months, my portfolio was reading $274, 800. Crazy right!, I decided to reinvest my profit and get more interesting. For over a year we have been working together making consistent profit just bought my second home 2 weeks ago and care for my family.

Buy a good cross section of an economy, Build a diverse portfolio that keeps you motivated, Speed up the process where possible:i'm all for dividends and i DRIP into etfs (ARKW, VOO, VXUS, IVV) and company stocks. After my first million I realized that when a stock starts booming chances of you finding out means you are quite late to the party, for this I make sure my CFA handles that, ever grateful to Abigail Ann Ryan. It's like turning your notifications to earn more millions.

Market is forward looking. Market knows that demand for gasoline and fuels will drop like a rock after 2030 and big oil will be wiped out the same as big coal before. China reached target of 50% EVs 10 years ahead of schedule and that is one third of the car market in the world.
