Musings of yours truly + positions

I may be regarded so take everything with a grain of salt. Some musings 1. Alpha is for losers, leveraged beta is for winners. Very little chance you’re going to pick the right stock. Pick a theme (semis, energy, rare earths, SaaS) find the leveraged ETF and hold (TQQQ, SOXL). Stock picking is for losers. \*\*Leveraged beta will get you alpha-esque returns if the broader market is cooperative.\*\* One caveat — this is HIGHLY dependent on your risk tolerance. If you can’t fathom choppy times then leverage will make your stomach churn. If you’re paper handed then you’re over allocated. I mix leverage with the underlying ETF (eg QQQ + TQQQ) to get to some blended leverage I’m ok with. 1. LEAPS > short dated options. Theta will cuck you. Don’t do unless you’re a degenerate and enjoy losing your money. 2. AMD, INTC will become trillion dollar companies. CPUs have joined GPUs as a key infra layer for AI compute. Market is just starting to price this paradigm shift. Buy SOXL not individual names. If Dr Su fumbles for some reason and Dr Tan doesnt or vice versa it won’t matter as much. 3. Stop trading so much. Unless you guys are doing this in your retirement accounts every trade introduces tax drag that will cuck your returns long term. PS I am regarded with my AMD and GOOG positions but rotating GOOG and AMD into SOXL next market open. Am regarded, not financial advice. Positions attached. PSS — I know most of you are degenerates but I’m trying to strike a balance between 0DTEs and boomer bogleheads — “controlled degeneracy” if you will.
