​ $EUV is one of my core semiconductor holdings and I keep getting asked why I don't just buy ASML directly. The ETF gives you ASML plus the broader ecosystem - optics manufacturers, light source tech, metrology firms. That diversification across the value chain is real and meaningful. Also easier …
Hedging my portfolio in anticipation of oil shortages
Oil is up currently but not as high as it could get if we actually see a real shortage. My portfolio is roughly 50% S&P500, 20% Healthcare, 15% international, then a mix of some niche exposure. So I stand to suffer quite a bit if U.S companies are exposed to …
How does anyone take Cathie Wood seriously?

With all the recent UAP/UFO news, congressional hearings, whistleblower claims, Pentagon investigations, and documentaries like The Phenomenon and The Age of Disclosure, I’ve been thinking about this from an investing perspective. If governments eventually confirmed that UAPs are real or that there’s technology beyond what’s publicly known, what publicly traded …

Lets Talk About Margin...
I throw $650 a month from my salary into SPY. I figured this is a great strategy and over the long run, it's worked fine. However, the siren song of margin is calling to me... It seems like I can take around a $150k loan for around the same $650 …
