Lets have a stock picking contest. Pick some US stocks and see who gains the most by 1 year

  1. We are indeed at all time highs and not the best place to begin to choose for one year. Although we will see more market drops..so maybe the thread will stay alive and people can add at better timing points.

    Right now:
    NVDA = all time high
    PLTR = way too pricey
    Open AI..even tho its not public = valued WAY TOO HIGH
    Microsoft = too pricey
    Even Tesla has come back up too high already

    I mentioned these stock because they are a barometer for the general situation (too high valued)

    If you notice..The IPOs are pricing lower and they run nicely. I would prolly select the next AI related IPO and put it here on the list (not sure which IPO is coming up in AI). But , untill I find the next IPO..I would select NBIS here for the one year pick.

    Fngu is only up 150% in 3 months..

    At the rate it's moving it should be up about 800% by end of 2025!!!!!

    Maybe 1000%.

    If you believe there is an iota of a recovery for small caps then ARKK & TARK (2X ARKK) are what you want. ARKK has done remarkably well even without an IWM comeback.

    I assume the regionals would also rally so DPST (3X KRE) is a good add if IWM does indeed come back. I have my doubts, frankly.

    from the 4/7/25 bottom

    ARKK +83%
    TARK +212% [this is strange since it is >2xARKK]
    DPST +91%

    I'll play...Not really.

    I bought 100 shares of TAN (ETF) in my Roth IRA...$33.93 Then did a covered for the Jan 26 $34. I got price improvement from $4.00 to $4.20!! Plus .05% dividend, heh!!

    That will be 1/2 my trade...The other half will be Generac stock...Say at $142.50

    The play is strictly about the grid (North America) and not about oil.

    If people have money...What will they pay for reliable back up power.

    It will go from a "not want" to a "need"...Just where I'm at.

    I'll post more of my thought process in my journal later today...
