Today was Harvest's payday. I got paid $2,948.37 based on $0.1 /share distribution. After re investing my $MSTE distributions I now have 31,109 shares. I have surpassed my original target of 30,000 shares. Next target is realistically 35,000 shares of MSTE hopefully by the end of this year depending on how the price of MSTE moves. For now my Capital Loss (on paper) is still negative $196,000 🙈. This will recover eventually when $BTC /$MSTR recovers in 3 yrs times and reach new ATHs. I am patient and waiting for a great recovery. So far $MSTE has paid me $48,839 in distributions that have all been reinvested back into $MSTE You can see the numbers for proof in the attached screenshot. Pls do not follow what I am doing, you have been warned. I am just documenting my journey here and being transparent with proof. It's fun showing the winners but losses are also part of investing too. Invest wisely and stay blessed. Mitigate risk according to your own risk tolerance. Congrats to all those who got paid today. read more
The AI Memory Sector is still intact and we see the big names, like $MU, $STX, $WDC, $SNDK, and $SKHY reporting and beating earnings estimates, as well as showing strong balance sheets and free cash flow. Micron, for instance, has $26 billion in cash and equivalents as of its most recent earnings report. $26 billion! I've said it once, and I'll say it again: AI memory demand is not going anywhere anytime soon. It is going to accelerate as the world makes use of AI agents. I am glad to see the sector dip, and I plan on buying more $DRAM tomorrow.
Since so many people ask how to invest in this sector, or this country, or this asset, I’ve decided to make a comprehensive guide on how you can invest in specific areas. This is NOT portfolio advice, simply information about tickers that you can research yourself. Save this for later so you have a list of ETFs to come back to! Canada: $XIU$XIC$ZCN All expose you to the TSX in Canada. These ETFs consist of all top Canadian companies and access to our national stock exchange. $VCB$VGV$VLB$VAB$VSB$VSC$XBB$XCB Expose you to Canadian bonds; whether it be long-term, short-term, corporate, government, etc. $VDY$XEI$CDZ Expose you to Canadian dividend companies $XRE$ZRE$VRE Give access to Canadian REITs $ZEB$XFN$RBNK Lets you buy the Canadian banks USA: $VFV$ZSP$XSP$XUS$HXS Lets you buy the S&P 500 (learn about hedged vs. unhedged in my other post) $XQQ$HXQ$ZQQ All give you access to the NASDAQ 100 $IWR$VO$VOE$VOT$IJH$SCHM Lets you buy US Midcaps $IJR$IWM$VB$VBR$VBK$SCHA Lets you buy US Smallcaps $DIV$SPYD$RDIV$DHS$VIG$SCHD$VYM$DGRO$SDY Give access from small to high dividend US companies $VTI$ITOT Lets you buy the whole US market $TLT$IEF$VGIT$GOVT$SHY$VGLT Give access to US bonds $XLC$XLY$XLP$XLE$XLF$XLV$XLI$XLB$XLRE$XLK$XLU All give you access to each sector in the S&P such as financials, energy, healthcare, etc. International: $XEQT$FEQT$VEQT$ZEQT Give you an all-in-one exposure to Canada, US, emerging and global markets. $VEA$IEFA$SCHF$SPDW$EFV$EFA Give access to general international exposure $EWJ$EWU$EWC Gives direct access to developed international countries $INDA$MCHI$EWT$EWY$EWZ$EWW$EIDO$EWM Gives direct access to emerging international countries Assets: $KILO$PHYS$CGL Let’s you buy gold directly through ETFs $SVR$HUZ Let you buy silver through ETFs Savings/Interest: $CASH$HISA$PSA$HSAV Access to Canadian savings and interest payments $HSUV-U $PSU-U $HISU-U Access to US savings and interest payments There’s so many ETFs I didn’t go into with dozens of categories, but this should give you some basic starting point to look into your ETF investments. This is simply the starting point, when choosing your investments always research the ETFs, what they provide to you, their fees, your goals, your risk, and what you’re looking to get out of investing. As always do your research and happy investing! Subscribe to the newsletter: relatablefinance.substack.com read more
I’ve been watching $NBIS after today’s sharp selloff, and this is exactly the kind of volatility that comes with ambitious AI infrastructure plays. The stock dropped as concerns grew around the proposed New Jersey AI data center project after local opposition pushed back the planning decision. Add the reported short position from Michael Burry, and sentiment quickly turned negative. The market reaction was brutal, wiping out roughly $2.6B+ in market cap in one session. I’m not ignoring the risks here. Building massive AI infrastructure is not just about demand execution, permits, power, and timelines all matter. That said, I’m also watching how the company responds after the panic. Sometimes the market overreacts before the full picture becomes clear. Who's still trading? Any end-of-day surprises? See you after the close. read more
$VOO– The responsible adult. Just keeps buying and doesn’t overthink it. $QQQM – The one who’s always talking about AI and tech. $SCHD – The one who reminds everyone to save money. They love seeing their dividend income grow year after year. $SCHG – The person who’s trying to beat the market. $JEPI – Wants a paycheck every month and is just waiting for that first week every month. Don’t take this seriously at all I just thought this was funny but let me know if u think this is accurate. read more
I genuinely enjoy breaking down the pros, cons, and underlying mechanics of different investing approaches as I learn about them. I watched a recent video on the Better Call Paul YouTube channel that made me think about the approach some people take of getting a loan to invest and then using distributions from that investment to pay down the debt. This can be summarized more simply as frontloading exposure and then deleveraging over time. Distributions do not make an equity investment self-funding in any guaranteed sense. If returns merely match borrowing costs, some invested value may effectively be converted into a lower loan balance. Strong returns let you deleverage while retaining growth. Weak returns expose the flaw because the debt remains even when the investment falls. In bull markets, that’s obviously where you can have your cake and eat it too. But when things go downhill, that’s where this idea of a “self-contained engine” breaks down. This is the part I keep coming back to: the assumption that something can simply be self-contained. With a guaranteed product offering sufficient and predictable cash flow, perhaps, but not with a product tied to equity exposure. The distributions may power the engine, but the market still determines whether it is moving forward or consuming itself. That assumption of self-containment also seems to be behind some of the mistakes Chris openly admits to in the video, and I appreciate his willingness to share them with the audience. For some, the takeaway might simply be, “Well, I just have to pick the good funds.” But that’s easier said than done. It starts to sound a lot like a stock picker saying, “I just have to pick the good stocks.”read more
I've been watching $MU closely after this recent pullback, and the latest analyst view caught my attention. Bank of America kept its Buy rating and $1,550 price target, viewing the weakness as a potential opportunity rather than a change in the long-term story. Their view is that while memory pricing may normalize in the coming years, the AI-driven demand cycle for high-performance memory remains a major support. The biggest question for me has always been whether AI memory demand can stay strong enough to offset future pricing pressure. Right now, the thesis still looks intact, especially with HBM and data center demand continuing to grow. I’m not chasing every move, but I’m paying attention when quality names get discounted. Market isn't done yet. Taking profits into the close? Looking forward to your thoughts. read more
I've gotten many messages over the past few months from people asking to look at their porfolio. Usually when I see a portfolio I see many individual stocks making up a large % of a porflio, my first response is always to buy low cost index funds. I dont want to come off harsh but I feel the definition of investor arrogance is believing you're smarter than the market. Believing you can consistently pick winning stocks while outperforming millions of other investors including professionals with teams of analysts and access to far more information than you. The data says otherwise. • Around 80–90% of actively managed U.S. equity funds underperform the S&P 500 over a 15-year period. • These funds are run by professionals with teams of analysts, company access, and institutional research, yet most still fail to outperform a simple index fund. One thing you'll notice on social media: people love posting their biggest stock winners. Far fewer people post the stocks they lost 50%, 80%, or even 100% on. There's a reason why mutual funds and actively managed funds have historically underperformed against index funds..because even well paid fund managers with their teams cant beat the market overtime. For the record, I still own some individual stocks. My portfolio is roughly 93% ETFs and 7% individual stocks. I enjoy researching companies, but I also recognize the odds are stacked against consistently beating the market. That's why the foundation of my portfolio is broad-market ETFs not stock picks.read more

recently pass this milestone and very happy about it. Worked hard to get it there and I do not give up to move towards FIRE 🔥 ! I setted up a investment plan a few years ago, I followed it carefully, I've been opportunist along the way but honestly, I just stayed Invested in the market and in the Journey ! Never gave up ! Thanks to many of you and some Finfluancers that gave ideas, opinions, tricks and most important : the passion of investing 🙏 Growth investors , income or hybride it doesn't matter, as long as we love what we are doing! Making money in the last past 3 - 4 years was almost easy.. I'm not a genius and far away of that 🤪 ! Just patient like Warren Buffet said, the market is a incredible machine of transferring money from impatients to the patients so stay invested folks ! What helped to reach the milstone was of course... the controversial $MSTE Recently decided to get on-board as I learned more about the company. When it launched, I didn't understand $MSTR so I decided to stay away, then I saw the sharp decline.. along with bitcoin and... Hmmmmmm... maybe a great opportunity to learn about it.. 🤔😏 I did my research and as an income investor that seeking capital growth I now owning over 15K shares at 2.50$ / shares.. 50% Yield on cost.. Just hopping I didn't burn myself on this one for too long.. but prety confident that it will growth overtime base on my research.. 🤞 Not over 10 % of the portfolio yet but didn't plan to get it over 15% even if my conviction is strong. But it might be the important key for the next milestone 😏🤑 and anyway, I have an exist plan as it's a risky one... always have a plan ! 😜read more
NVIDIA is the best company in the trade, and that’s exactly the problem. The short term bull case is real — CUDA moat, first-mover on AI infra, margins nobody else touches, because no one else makes the GPUs as good. But the stock’s pricing infinite growth, and forever capex spending, not a great company. Every hyperscaler buying Nvidia’s chips is also building their own silicon. Your biggest customers are going to be your future competitors, and they’re incentivized to stop overpaying you. Concentration risk is real too — a handful of hyperscalers drive the majority of revenue. That’s not a customer base, that’s a few CFOs’ capex decisions. And the thesis assumes AI spend compounds forever. Spend cycles like this overbuild, then digest. Doesn’t mean it’s over — means the multiple isn’t pricing a pause, and any pause gets violent. And by that point, the huperscalers will have their own chips and NVIDIA’s margins will no longer be viable.
Congratulations to Jared on achieving the rising star award. We finally met in person today and he definitely made my experience super enjoyable! Thanks Jared you deserve it!!
This morning I realized that there are 7,000 of you following my financial journey. I’m so humbled, thank you. 🙏🏻 I remember what financially crippled felt like, stomach dropping before I even opened my banking app. Doing math at the grocery store, putting things back. That 3am anxiety where every “what if” feels like a countdown. Today looks different. Not checking my portfolio for days because I don’t need to. Booking a flight without the mental gymnastics. Standing in front of Trevi Fountain on a random Tuesday, mid-week, mid-year, simply because I can. I got here the boring way. No windfall, no hot picks, no timing the market. Just the same unglamorous decisions, repeated for years, until one day the weight was gone. I’m retired now, and my portfolio carries us further than my paycheque ever did. I don’t say that to impress anyone, I say it because I remember not having anyone show me this was possible. If this account helps even one of you get a little closer to your own “free,” I’ll consider it worth every post. Truly, thank you for being here. For reading, for asking questions, for trusting me with a small piece of your journey. This community means more to me than a follower count ever could. 🥂 Here’s to learning and growing together. read more

🟢 $QQQ held the key 712 support and has now gone from red to green. 👀 A strong close above 717 could open the door for a move toward 722. 💾 $MU is back near 900, even with $SNDK selling off after earnings. That’s constructive relative strength. 📌 930 remains the key breakout level. A sustained move above it could put 1000 back on the radar heading into September. 🚀 $ARM continues to look strong. We started building a position around $273, and the trend remains intact. 🎯 300 is the next level to watch, with 350+ remaining the bigger-picture target if momentum continues. ⚠️ Let price confirm the move before chasing. Stay disciplined and manage risk. Good luck everyone! 🫡 read more
