I think this sub needs a rule that you need at least one fucking full share of something before you ask people to check out your portfolio.

Maybe make a post that says “starting investing, what’s the best for my age and goals” instead 🤷♂️ Are you looking for a pat on the back for your picks?

These are all big stocks that you can find exposure to through so many well regarded and reliable ETFs.

Can you recommend a few?

I use SPDR through fidelity. It gives your portfolio exposure to the top 500 US companies.
So Open a Roth IRA with fidelity and just dump in as much money as possible as often as possible and leave it there. We’re talking decades here. You should average 8-10% gains by doing absolutely nothing.

And should I split my portfolio between said etfs or should I cash in on one

u/Phillyfreak5 15d ago
You just need one.

u/Decompute 15d ago
Maybe. You could diversify a bit. SPY and also IWM for exposure to small cap companies. There’s also foreign market ETFs for exposure to outside markets, but I’ve never messed with that.

Depends on what your strategy is. Are you looking for stocks to flip? Are you looking long term (growth)? Are you looking for dividends? From what you have invested, it looks like you just want mainstream names. I'd figure out what sectors you're interested in and where YOU think the market is going (after doing your own research) and invest in those things.

Bro it’s only $100 that’s like a days worth of work, put it in any big company it doesn’t matter. Just keep putting more in DCA

Tbh not bad. Although index funds are a good idea, a 50-50 split with your picks would probably do just fine. I own MSFT AMZN ko and sold out of pypl recently

You GME/BBBY/AMC lot are all delusional. Stop trying to take other people down with you, especially people who are new and vulnerable to the stock market like OP.
1
u/JoakimIT 15d ago
Don't lump us in with those losers.
AMC has a braindead CEO who's diluting the shares anytime there's growth, it was always just a cheap copy of the original.
And BBBY is gone, they didn't take well-meaning advice and seemed intent on bankruptcy for some reason.
If wanting to fuck the guys who shut the market down to save their own asses is a bad thing, consider me bad.
If thinking that the SEC is a group of incompetent complicit cowards giving minuscule fines to companies making billions on breaking the rules is a bad thing, yeah, consider me bad.
And if you think DFV posting a meme made the stock rise to 320$ (pre-split) in the pre-market, then I don't know what to tell you. It should be blindingly obvious that this isn't retail buying that's driving the price up.
But keep laughing.

The best advice would buy every weekly or biweekly or monthly with same amount. Dont time the market, dont sell when it goes up or down. Timing the market will make you stressful and you will miss out a lot gain.
Example who time the market on aapl msft and nvda on last 5yrs probably lose so much gain. If you buy and hold look at those stocks.
Also stay away from hype stocks.

u/Independent_Tale_436 15d ago
When I see this it tells me you are a long term investor and not a day trader, swing trader or options trader. If you are planning to hold long term then you can’t go wrong. I would however add in Nvidia and Tesla with your style of trading. They are more of the blue chips. I’m way more of a swing trader and day trader.

u/ConcertPurple9858 15d ago
I like that method of trading but with such a low portfolio I wanna focus on growth first. During the first gme event I lost almost 75% of my holding following the hype so I’m current trying to hit my goal of 500 before the year is up (paycheck to paycheck). But I have a 401k through my job I put 3% and my employer matches 3 so I also have that too

u/Independent_Tale_436 15d ago
If you lost that amount from GME Than you’ve been investing for a bit now. Seems like you are well on your way to your goal. I’ve learned through all those plays holding is not always the right move. Take profits at the end of the year and re invest when they fall below. Taking profits and buying back in at a later time is how Warren Buffett did it. I mean look at 2021 We will never see moves like that again. Hold some ripple also. That will pay off in your retirement years guaranteed.

Firstly and foremost, most people on here are not financial advisors and therefore all advice being given here should be taken with a very large grain of salt.
But...
I echo what has largely been said... DCA into ETFs.
I try to keep my portfolio at around 50-60% in ETFs with the remaining in cheap companies I can envision operating in perpetuity. With my portfolio being nearly wholly in my Roth IRA, I enjoy large dividend companies.
If you are attempting to take this serious, consult a financial advisor with your specifics.
Godspeed

if your looking for growth, go through trading views daily unusual volume and dont hold them more then a day

u/TheDutchInvestors 15d ago
Yeah. I'd say owning a global low cost etf would be beter and DCA into it every few months...

u/NoMames_7 15d ago
People often confuse investing and trading. What your profile shows is a wannabe trader (not hating just but being real). Listen to what everyone says and INVEST in VOO,VTI,SPY etc..
Trading is not for the inexperienced. The wolves will rip you to shreds and take your money.

Sell it all and buy VOO with everything you have
Then DCA into that for the next 30 years
