Nasdaq & Russell 2000 is all set to make new all time highs....
Nasdaq only 181.52 points or .97% away from making new all time high which currently stands @ 18,671.07...
Russell 2000 is 23.91 points away or 1.04%....2300.00 is the number to cross.....
Both indices can do this in 1 day of trading or could do the same in same session...
There is lot of skepticism about Russell 2000 which IS a good thing......
Nasdaq new series of all time highs are considered given.....
IF I was placing my bets, I will use ETF on both & stick with it.....
In US stock market, It Is always a good idea to diversify thus IWM & QQQ sound like a safe strategy going forward....
It IS earnings season with TSLA on Wednesday, another laggard which looks good....
Earnings could be meet expectations BUT guidance can be much better, generally speaking....
This IS a very good market with BULLS in control, its slow & steady northbound.....
Always a good strategy to be overexposed in strong bull market which comes quite infrequently....
YES....there will be pullbacks along the way BUT It may present buying opportunity in many many stocks....so have your buy list ready.....
Good luck with your own strategy & comfort level...

US stock market has come a long way in discounting " inflation / recession / high interest rates "
Discounting any issue is tough enough BUT to discount 3 issues was challenging...
Runaway inflation is being tamed now
Fear of recession is gone with job growth
FED finally has cut 50 basis and 2 more 25 to come in 2024....
SO...all 3 issues are on the mend....
That leaves US stock market & worldwide stock market in a " sweet spot "
This kind of investing environment comes after long digestive / discounting phase which erodes comfort level in stocks.....
BUT here we are finally on the road to " higher highs " in many sectors.....
This calls for " conviction & patience "
Have a diversified portfolio and let it breathe....for a long time....you may have a pleasant surprise of growth in equity value over time.....
US markets changes its profile frequently....this one is much more predictable and " north bound "
IF we look @ new 52 week high list...It will lead you to some serious growth stocks......
Do not be stuck in old ideas.....time for new names in every portfolio....
Q4 has started, this IS the strongest Q for technology and many related Industries....which carries over in Q1 of 2025....
A1 has changed the game completely...It IS in very early stages....pick your stocks and stick with it.
Have a higher exposure of a strong bull market and keep adding as we are headed much much higher in many many sectors.....from Uranium to Silver to Crypto....
Good luck with your own research & comfort level....
