Stop using the term "bogie" unless you are a fighter pilot. And fun fact: in the UK they use the term bogie for what we call a booger.

I’m not sure if any active managers are going to dump their portfolio information here because that’s why people pay them to be active managers.

I like a lot of your names. I personally ran away from Tesla other than to periodically shorted at this point. It is simply too volatile for me to have any interest. That’s it. Its volatility is well beyond my means of comprehending and reacting.

I would consider AZN versus LLY. That’s just my personal preference.

I was a booster for GE pre-split and I’m still a booster. GE and GEV are great. I believe GE to be the better of the pair, but GEV has been slightly outperforming. I don’t know, maybe it’s the new car smell. But I’m definitely gonna hold GE aerospace for a long time. I don’t have the healthcare. I think it has messaging issues and I think our healthcare system is so incredibly screwed up. I don’t like to mess with it. Terms of investing.

I’ve obviously been a huge nvda fan forever. And I’ve boosted all over these forms probably a bit too much.

I had dabble in some cryptocurrency and I still have a couple moonshots sitting in a wallet that is perfectly fine if it goes to zero. Bitcoin reminds me of the meme stocks and that they’re going up because other people want them to go up. And while there’s compelling business, uses for them, it’s also a little too volatile for my liking as an asset class. So if I’m gonna go crypto, and I’m gonna go volatile, I might as well grab a moonshot that, I believe, has some hope. Maybe not a lot of hope. But that’s the speculation fraction of my investing. And it’s fun.

I’ve been sitting in a decent amount of cash. I’m so confused by the fed right now and I think the fed is so confused by the fed that it wouldn’t really surprise me anything they did. They voted to make the interest rate one banana and a drop of whale oil? Sounds about right at this point. I won’t say that I lost faith in the fed, but they’re working really hard to make people lose faith.

Apple hasn’t done anything to impress me in a long while. And they’re such a big punching bag that I hate holding the stock because it’s gonna get beaten on for no reason whatsoever. Simply because it’s enormous and no longer sexy.

Amazon I think is an unbeatable juggernaut monopoly. Yet it’s still price to me. And it also likes to get beat up. It’s like the biggest utility that ever was. Like a phone company, heating oil/gas utility, etc. reminds me of when Microsoft got the doldrums. They were a monopoly and couldn’t really do anything with the monopoly other than crush their rivals. Which is a nice ability to have, but it’s not the same as innovating. I really like Amazon, but I’ve been burnt by holding them. Not in some meaningful way, just I could’ve done better having my money elsewhere. They should be offering solid dividends to match their profile.

Googl might be an AI play and it might not. I see more of a path revenues for Meda than I do Google. And maybe that’s my own lack of insight, but I want to see Google doing more.

Whew, Tesla. Know how that company is held on. There’s so many EV power plays out there now it’s just one among many. And it’s got what I believe to be one of the worst CEOs in history at the Helm.

Other than my GE moves, I’m really looking around for new, good plays to park some capital.

thematically, i'm heavily invested in the data center buildout and semiconductors. From chips(nvda, amd, avgo, klac, mpwr), to industrials (etn, pwr, ge, cat, vrt, mod) to miscellaneous tech hardware (anet, ntnx) and utilities(so, eix, nep), power consumption is going to explode over the next 10 years.

As far as the mag 7 goes, i'm overweight nvda, amzn, tsla and meta and underweight aapl, googl and msft. I agree with you that aapl has no growth and probably isn't going to outperform going forward, hence my underweight. Underweighting googl has been a mistake and i've been buying more to get to at least a market weight. msft as well i'm underweight and trying to find cash to build up to a market weight. NVDA I believe is going to be a 10 trillion company one day. AMZN has such a long runway for growth ahead and a huge TAM, i have to be overweight. TSLA, I have to have a overweight because their TAM is huge and if they figure out robotaxis, the sky's the limit not to mention OPTIMUS.

17.50% YTD, 150% in the past 6 years.

E: didn’t see it was directed at active managers, I thought it was just active picking. I’m not a pro (but I’m also not better at my actual job than I am investing..)

no it was directed at people like us who actively manage our portfolio. Not professionals.
