So about a year ago, I decided to do an experiment with stock picking based on this post:
[https://www.reddit.com/r/stocks/comments/1n9vy1p/one\_stock\_your\_bullish\_on\_for\_next\_12\_months/](https://www.reddit.com/r/stocks/comments/1n9vy1p/one_stock_your_bullish_on_for_next_12_months/)
I chose 10 companies on this Reddit thread that people were bullish on. I did little to no research on these companies and just decided to wing it. I wanted to see if Reddit was a great place to find some promising stocks for 2026.
I put 100$ CAD into each of these stocks, for a total of 1000$ CAD ($724.42 USD). Here are the results after one year:
|**Ticker**|**Shares**|**Price at purchase**|**Value at purchase**|**Price now**|**Current value**|**Change (%)**|
|:-|:-|:-|:-|:-|:-|:-|
|**NBIS**|1.1|$64.97|$71.47|$199.54|$219.49|**207%**|
|**ASTS**|1.65|$36.97|$61.00|$55.80|$92.07|**51%**|
|**RKLB**|1.6|$45.51|$72.82|$62.54|$100.06|**37%**|
|**GOOG**|0.3|$236.05|$70.82|$332.03|$99.61|**41%**|
|**UNH**|0.23|$318.69|$73.30|$396.41|$91.17|**24%**|
|**SOFI**|3|$25.80|$77.40|$17.05|$51.15|**-34%**|
|**RDDT**|0.3|$245.50|$73.65|$144.62|$43.39|**-41%**|
|**ROOT**|0.8642|$93.00|$80.37|$55.10|$47.62|**-41%**|
|**RZLV**|17|$4.30|$73.10|$2.39|$40.63|**-44%**|
|**OKLO**|1|$70.50|$70.50|$38.55|$38.55|**-45%**|
|**TOTAL**|||**$724.42**||**$823.74**|**14%**|
Overall, my portfolio did good, with a return on investment of 14%, but you can see that 50% of the stocks are down. I think NBIS saved my portfolio with a crazy growth over the last year.
Now, I wanted to know what you guys think I should do with this portfolio. Should I close some positions or add some more? (I did buy more of GOOG and RKLB recently). Which stocks do you think have the most upside on this list, or which ones are the most likely to keep falling?
I do want to say this portfolio was up 24% YOY yesterday, which shows that it's pretty volatile. And yes, I am still seeking investment advice on Reddit. Feel free to ask questions or give advice.
\*Edit: I know there could have been better investments made this past year, this is why it's called an experiment that I wanted to share.
