🚀FOMO or Hate Rally, Just Invest in QQQ to Beat Warren Buffet's Returns?
At the start of the year, the markets were too optimistic about the rate cut, and the market rallied only to fizzle out. Now, with renewed clarity on the rate cut, investors are ready to take on risk and buy the beaten-down stocks. It is also believed that smaller-cap stocks will benefit more from the rate cut as they are more affected by high interest rates than the big caps. Moreover, the Magnificent 7 have seen great returns so far this year, and some investors may have taken profits and rotated to other stocks that have yet to run. The bigger question is whether the small-cap rally will sustain. I believe this time it should sustain for the next two months until September when the rate cut is expected. This is because we have never been so close and so certain—though not 100% certain,

Stock Picking Prowess: Why Owning Shares Can Outmuscle ETFs

The market's been on a tear this year, with Nvidia leading the charge and tech giants like Google, Amazon, and Microsoft reaching new heights. But while the article highlights the impressive returns of the Magnificent 7 ETF (MAGS) and the Mega Cap ETF (MGK), let's challenge the notion that ETFs are always the best call. Here's why I'd lean towards picking individual stocks over ETFs in this scenario. Unearthing Hidden Gems: ETFs offer diversification, which is great for reducing risk. But they also spread your investment across a basket of companies, some of which might be duds. By picking individual stocks, you have the potential to discover hidden gems – companies with high growth potential that haven't quite hit the mainstream yet. Imagine if you'd snagged Nvidia early on – you'd be sit

But after gaining 38% over the past eight trading sessions, shares have now risen 1.2% this year. The stock is down 1.1% in premarket trading Monday. It has been a good time for all the Magnificent Seven stocks. The other six have gained an average of 7% during Tesla’s recent run. On July 2, Tesla reported better-than-expected second-quarter vehicle deliveries. The company sold about 444,000 units, down 4.8% year over year.

US equities are on a tear, with $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ surging 10% on strong Q2 delivery numbers and $NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$ leading the charge after its shareholder meeting. The Magnificent Seven - APPLE, GOOGLE, AAMAZON, NVIDIA, Tesla, and META - are driving market gains, with year-to-date returns ranging from 25% to 150%. Investors can tap into this growth through the $Roundhill Magnificent Seven ETF(MAGS)$ or the $Vanguard Mega Cap Growth ETF(MGK)$, which offer diversified exposure to these high-performing stocks. However, individual stock investing carries risks, and chasing highs

Definitely! Saves the trouble of picking stocks and diversifies the risk. Between the 2, I definitely prefer MGK because it has the lower expense ratio. Also, I don’t like that Tesla is the heaviest portfolio in MAGS which is too erratic due to Elon’s behaviour and decisions. In addition, MGK is more diversified and has more industries such as pharmaceutical company which is less risky and potentially less volatile.
I will not add $The Magnificent Seven ETF(MAGS)$ and $Vanguard Mega Cap Growth ETF(MGK)$ in my portfolio as I have already invested in $Global X Nasdaq 100 Covered Call ETF(QYLD)$ which will distribute monthly dividends and their stock constituents also contain Magnificent 7.
