Hey, I'm reading about $RNDR everywhere now... can someone explain to me what this is about? They're supposedly working with $AAPL $GOOG-1.5% and $NVDA but I'm not really clear
Well see, I've never read about them once in my life 😂 But quite an interesting collaboration, reading it that way.
Just two stocks make up 26% of the NASDAQ index and 14% of the S&P 500 index. Those two stocks are $MSFT-0.1% and $AAPL.
This is not what a healthy market looks like.

Thanks for the update. It's good that these stocks are rising, however, since I also invest in ETFs, I don't know if I totally like it :)
Amazon $AMZN will expand its mobile phone offerings for Prime members.
Apple $AAPL will offer high-yield savings accounts.
JP Morgan $JPM now controls more than 15% of US bank deposits.
Google $GOOG now controls more than 90% of global search traffic.

A few companies now control almost...

I guess it depends, what's "crumb"? At least for me it's wrong that there is an unassailable monopoly in every segment...
There are some good points and some that are a bit against. I don't see a lot of growth there right now either and I would have expected some sort of drop off. If we get to even lower levels than we were last year, that would be a bump. Still no blood flowing in the market yet...
SUMMARY OF MONDAY'S APPLE CONFERENCE
As expected, Apple on Monday unveiled its first entry into the augmented reality market, Apple Vision Pro. However, the specific information given in the keynote at this year's Worldwide Developers Conference seems to have left investors somewhat cold.
While Apple's $AAPL APL stock hit a record high at the start of Monday's session, the stock...

I like the new macbook air and the new watch OS. That's about it, but then the glasses came out and that's something. There's nothing like it yet and if it really works the way they showed, it's a game changer. On the other hand, I keep thinking about why I should buy it. It's expensive, I do my work on my laptop and if I want to watch a movie, I have a TV. I guess we'll have to wait for the real use of it.
Have a nice Tuesday,
I see this week as more of an observation week. A lot of stocks of interest to me are more at their highs like $AAPL (although it went down slightly after the conference). And the ones that went down a bit like $DIS I overbought in May.
Are you going to overbought something, take profits, or are you having more of an observation week too?
I have reinvested the last 2 months dividends into $BTI, at those prices it's a nice piece for the portfolio.
The S&P 500 index is up 20% from the lows in October, so the index is technically in a bull market.
Shares of $AAPL are up 1.5%, taking it to an all-time high of $183.86.
Shares of $MSFT are also hitting a new all-time high.
How do you feel about the current market situation and what do you expect?
I would also like to know the answer to the question of what to expect from the market, but now it's an unreal goulash, it seems to me, the market does pretty much whatever it wants regardless of what's going on around it,
I have an average per share of $140 so I don't want to spoil it that much and rather wait a while for some drop :)
As most here have written, even if $AAPL is no longer on that first rung it probably won't matter. AAPL already has that name and that status awfully strong.
Have a nice day investors! I am interested in your overbought strategy. 😊
I know that probably the "best" and recommended method for beginners is DCA (dollar-cost averaging). Of course, I'll give you an example. For example, we have a company you like like $AAPL. You started investing, you bought. Then maybe you caught a downturn, you bought in. Today, we're within a few % of...

Leaving out the six. ...it makes me wonder how it's all based on tech companies... :)
