My best gain in 2024 was Amprius ($Amprius Technologies Operating Inc(AMPX)$ ) and I'm still holding because I expect it to go up again in 2025. They make lithium-silicon batteries that are better than the lithium-NMC batteries currently used in cars. There's lots of competition but no one else has posted better figures for how far you can go one one charge. The batteries also charge faster. They're currently selling batteries for drones and satelites and mobility equipment but intend to move into car batteries. They signed a bid deal this year with an undisclosed Global Fortune 500 maker of light electric vehicles i.e. electric bikes or motorcycles for $20m. They're not currently profitable as they have been building factories. They put

$DE GREY MINING LTD(DEG.AU)$ Good price increase from the offer from Norther Star but I don't think it's high enough. $5bn sounds like a lot until you realise the pre tax project cashflow of $6.5bn is at a gold price of A$2700. You would have to think gold will drop 30+% or the asic will be above forecast to sell. 

$Amprius Technologies Operating Inc(AMPX)$   Surprised but happy at the gain in the last few days. They're not doing anything new as far as I'm aware,  only news is submitting a battery sample for tests.

I don't have enough optimism to buy Tesla for something that may happen in a year.

Neither. Work out what you want from life (happiness, wealth, knowledge etc) and then do what you need to get there. For some, investing is the right answer, but for others, education or family is more important than money.

I think $NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$ will disappoint,  not because their earnings are low but because expectations are sky high!

Missed the China rally, was looking in a different direction.

Florence, Italy, for the good food,  good museums, quaint cobbled streets.

$Grab Holdings(GRAB)$ is a great momentum buy at the moment, glad I bought low.

Hard to buy INTC with the foundry business foundering. TSMCs troubles in USA suggest it will be difficult to run with good quality and profitably. I would only buy INTC if the foundry was gone.
