Summary
The post is about a retail investor's dilemma: whether to invest in the diversified S&P 500 ETF (VOO) or to focus on individual, more deeply discounted "big tech" stocks.
The author's thesis is that big tech stocks have fallen significantly from their highs compared to the overall market, potentially offering a better entry point, but they acknowledge the risk that these stocks will still fall with a declining broader market.
Quality assessment: This is speculative noise. It's a general question about strategy timing with no specific data, research, or tickers mentioned.

I know that buying the overall market is less risky than buying individual stocks. But given that these big tech stocks are down so much more than all-time highs compared to the overall market, is it better to buy those stocks right now? And to wait for a bigger overall dip on Voo before putting money there?
I also realize that if the market overall continues to go down, those big tech stocks will not be immune and will also continue to fall....
Any thoughts on this? Where and when it's better to put money into these individual stocks compared to putting it into VOO? Thanks
