Looks like 2021 is gonna be the year where people get punished for buying in at crazy prices on growth companies

Agree with everyone on buying Apple though. Intuit is the main one I'm looking at averaging down on if tech continues to tumble, very exciting prospects with Quickbooks IMO. If Alphabet drops I'll also buy that. Not touching Tesla and ultra expensive stocks though, it's not my style

eventually it will reverse but yeah, it is near-impossible to replicate last year’s stupidly phenomenal gains in tech growth stocks

a pull back is due anyways, but after the stock market kamehameha’d the shut down economy in 2020 i dont see it happening even if they raise interest rates multiple times in 2021.

In my view, a strong recovery is already priced in to most company valuations, with the exception of really hard hit sectors that won't recover fully for years (oil, commercial banking, retail). This is why we could easily see a pull back as the economy is rebounding

There are also some sub-optimal scenarios that are not being given much serious thought by investors, like new COVID variants putting lockdown loosening in jeopardy or inflation rising to a point where rates have to increase significantly

I remember when I first started investing and would put all my money into a handful of very speculative stocks. Used to hear you have to diversify and I would just discount that as a boomer talk. After losing my ass, I diversified and have been doing fairly well since then.

I keep hearing value vs growth but why can't people create custom portfolios where they can have both simultaneously. I'm doing very well on plays like Disney and Exxon and taking it on the chin on Apple, AMD & others but having both types of investments really creates a nice counterweight so i'm not getting murdered even when tech pulls back like 10%




Thats right.. the only value play i have is DIS and the rest are growth stocks and they just got hit with a blesssed hammer

I don't consider Disney a value stock right now. Its growth has been based on significant speculation of being able to turn its intellectual property into a high profit all encompassing entertainment platform by that I mean at home via a streaming service and its other TV platforms and out while at a park, a movie, etc.

I actually consider Disney to be one of my most speculative plays. Value stocks to me are Canadian banks; highly regulated, strong earners, low PE ratios, Fortis, Enbridge, Etc.

When the market runs, it runs. It's funny people think they can time these moves. I hope this isn't the rebound... I have more cash to invest at lower levels...

you can time general moves (like buying last march/april/may) but being like lol i bought at the rock bottom before a rally is a silly venture. only the special people (politicians, hollywood, big tech head honchos, and wall street insiders) get such privilege
