Strong BUY. Still early innings. NVIDIA is the dominant leader in AI and the preferred technology partner globally. Even w new competition on the horizon, NVIDIA is far ahead of the competition. 85% market share. 76% margin. Unrivaled demand for new Blackwell chip. Demand far exceeds production for Blackwell through to 2025 and beyond. No competitor has anything close to Blackwell. And forward P/E is about 33 (cheap for a high growth stock). Buy this stock and wait. You will be rewarded.

[@jcurdrayeric243]

Problem is that NVDA is addicted to the datacenter, their mobile offerings are terrible. Inference needs to happen at the edge (mobile) and training will not have the same amount of demand as time goes on. NVDA is a major bet on aggregation of resources (compute) but this is cyclical as we have seen dozens of major shifts in this industry. Remember when Citrix aggregated desktops with VDI and then it imploded because VDI has a problem with latency? AI Inference in the datacenter has the same problem with latency. AAPL and Samsung are the best buys for AI now that we are transitioning from training to inference.

[@rogerwheelers4322]

This is Interesting because i bought NVIDIA around September last year. The company is selling shovels in a gold rush. It accounted for almost 80% of my market return last year, and I'm sure this year will present other interesting stocks.

[@joshbarney114]

I'm sure the idea of an investment-Adviser might sound controversial to a few, but a new study by Motley-fool found out that demand for Financial-Advisers sky-rocketed by over 42% since the pandemic and based on firsthand encounter I can say for certain their skillsets are topnotch. I've accrued north of the $880k within 16-months from an initially stagnant Portfolio.

[@FabioOdelega876]

I appreciate the implementation of ideas and strategies that result to unmeasurable progress. Being heavily liquid, I'd rather not reinvent the wheel, thus the search for a reputable advisor, mind sharing info of this person guiding you please?

[@wotiluv]

Curious as to which of his picks you disagree and why 😊

[@jing-xt2tg]

You may have answered it before, but why do you measure the Story Fund against the S&P and not the QQQ, VGT, or SCHG? You aren't compensating for the additional risk of that portfolio when measuring it's success against a lower risk, more diversified index.

[@XGuard04]

Because the SP is a standard comparison with beta of 1? If you picked one of the other indexes it would be off in beta or diversification.

[@jing-xt2tg]

@@XGuard04 The Story Fund obviously has a beta higher than 1 though, that's the point. Buying higher risk assets and then measuring against a lower risk index isn't real outperformance. We need an apples to apples comparison to see if there is truly any real alpha in his picks, or if he would just be better off buying SCHG or something similar. I thought that was the entire point.

And that’s just from what you choose to share publicly. Nice job, Joe.

Thanks for posting this video. It sort of forced me to look into it. We have two accounts from two 401K IRA conversions we did in retirement. My accounts include cash, brokerage, IRAs, and Roths. In my shorter term, the one I took distributions and withdrawals when needed, we had a 23.5% YTD, and my longer term, the one for legacy investing, we had a 30% YTD Honestly, I am shocked and surprised and need to double-check. I simply took the starting YTD and today's balance, and those are the numbers.

@ don’t study bitcoin then. Study the fiat system and find its flaws. A protocol that allows for billions to be stored on a single address. That’s marvelous. Remember how people were skeptic at first about the iPhone? It’s the same thing happening. The volatility is a feature it is not a bug. If it doesn’t go to zero it goes to a million. It’s that simple. We are still early. In the community people say bitcoin is on a need to know basis. Maybe you can use normal banking infrastructure. Reality is that most of the world have no access to a functioning banking infrastructure. Why? Because of corrupt government. Bitcoin represent property rights.
