Guys, what was the worst investment you've made in your investing career? I mean, the biggest realized or paper loss. I'll go out on a limb and say that mine was an investment in $META+3.9% which I sold at about -50% (but luckily I got out fairly early at the time and transferred the money to a company that made even more) :D So, what's gone wrong on your investment journey? :)

Technology stocks are up tens of % this year, some by more than 100%. For example, $META+3.9% stock is up 140% for the year and $NVDA+4.0% stock is up 180%. I'm increasingly regretting not buying tech stocks sooner and buying more of them. However, I still bought some tech stocks. I was buying $AAPL+3.7% stock at $133 and then I was still buying $GOOGL+1.5% stock at $98.

So today we go to Meta Platforms $META+3.9% with the results!
In an exciting week of events after yesterday's close, another big company gave us a glimpse into its performance and the results exceeded expectations. Congratulations to those who are holding or possibly put a call option yesterday. 😊

Great, thanks for the recap. The results are really great. I would like to include $META+3.9% stock in my portfolio, but the price is really high at the moment.
Am I the only one who finds $META+3.9% stock a little overbought already? :D

I confess, I sold too early. 😔 But who knew. 130% YTD and almost $300 limit. 🙈 Maybe time to throw a short? 😏
Will the expected launch of Threads drive $META'+3.9% s share price?
A highly anticipated rival to Twitter is expected to launch Thursday, according to a listing on Apple Inc.'s App Store.

I keep reading somewhere lately that a big correction is coming. How do you see it? I think that it will last for a while, at least for $META+3.9%, but some correction will probably come, I just don't think it will be very big.

A correction, yes, but I don't think we're looking at new lows from last year.
Do you have your eye on any particular stocks but they are not at the prices you would like to buy them at and you are waiting for them to fall???
I'm waiting for a drop in a lot of stocks I'd like to buy at a better price like $PEP-0.3%, $META+3.9%, $JNJ-0.8%, $MSFT+1.8%, $WM+1.4% or maybe $ASML+5.1%.

I would definitely buy everything from the big tech sector at more attractive prices,
AI! The most talked about topic in the investment world lately. We had a crazy tech rally during covid. When the pandemic ended, inflation and interest rates rose and the tech. mega rally was extinguished.
Now we have a new rally!
ChatGPT has left investors feeling exuberant. And a new rally is in full swing as all sorts of future AI opportunities are priced in.
That's why I've...

Nicely summed up and I'll join the Applaks here 😂 I also think they'll come up with something later when it's a blast
Have a nice Tuesday,
how do you feel about $META+3.9%? It's been climbing back up quite a bit since the last drop at the end of 2022, which is great for owners of this stock. But some of Zuckerberg's plans seem very controversial to me, on the other hand, that's why his company was/is still a success and he owns instagram, whatsup..... What's your take on this?

$META+3.9% has lost steam due to the metaverse, which it has failed to push and lives only on ads. 😔

Hey investors, have a great Sunday.
Since the earnings season for the first quarter of this year is almost over, I would like to ask you how you rate the earnings season and what results surprised you the most, either pleasantly or unpleasantly.
I perceive the results season positively, as I expected much worse. Obviously, some companies had worse results and did not exceed...

Personally, from the whole jerk I'm surprised there just isn't a recession yet, which su's always talked about. The tech companies, the hype around AI is just holding it together, that's all and if it wasn't for that we wouldn't be where we are in the indices at all. So I still expect a decline, not now if the Fed doesn't hike, but as just big tech runs out of drive, we should go down, but I don't think drastically.

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

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...
Since I started investing recently, luckily nothing like this has happened to me yet :). I'm trying to invest really long term and don't want to sell too much. However, I'm sure those losses and bad investments are still to come.
