US stock market keep making new highs.....

 US stock market is on a " selective tear "

Many stocks keep making " new all time highs on high volume "

It IS important to read the " message of the market "

It IS AI

It IS Quantum Computing

Many stocks are well positioned to exploit both AI & Quantum phenomenon

BUT many many traders keep playing " wrong stocks "

There was a movie "Death Wish ".....

SO open your eyes and see which stocks are making new all time highs....OWN @ least 1 stock in that profitable list.....

Here is how my last week ended :

Last week UP 4.59%

YTD          UP 37.87%

Here is my weighting on 71% exposure :

UBER      27.62%

AAPL       24.20%

GOOG      24.15%

CRCL       13.10%

AMD          5.56%

Hi Saleem,

Last week: -6.77% (YTD: -18.83%)
Portfolio Leaders: CVCO BITU ASPI
Portfolio Laggards: LFMD DAVE SNAP AEVA UPST

It was a brutal week of earnings for the portfolio and the performance suffered despite the market making new highs. Many previously hot small cap stocks continued to rest while the larger counterparts keep chugging along. At this point, with earnings mostly out of the way, the market looks toward the end of year setups and Fed easing, which bodes well for growth stocks and crypto. I adjusted my portfolio towards these ideas and hope I am correctly positioned for the next wave. Surprisingly perhaps, individual investor sentiment turned decidedly bearish in last week's survey, https://www.aaii.com/sentimentsurvey, and that could provide more fuel for the next push as recent sideline money looks to return.

Holdings: BITU ASPI RZLV AEVA CVCO PONY BKSY LFMD SSYS FATN, cash 0%

SSYS reports Wednesday before the bell and this will signal whether that position is worthy of an end-of-year hold. Otherwise, I like individually all the other holdings (except still watching LFMD for actual long term prospects in a competitive industry).

Hi Simon,

I will probably do the same - I'm just researching new ideas currently.

Hi Saleem,

Sold SSYS @ 9.74
Sold LFMD @ 6.72

There is no room for laggards in this market - the high will go higher.

Bought WGS @ 120.86

I am "late" on this investment by a few days, but I think there's still more upside given the impressive momentum in the latest quarter and recent guidance from the AAP to use their exome/genome as first-tier tests for children.

Added to BITU and small FATN AEVA (and also will probably small amounts of others just to be fully invested)
