Linus stock tips, here to help with investing money.

 

There are probably better places to get stock market advice, really. 

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

For a newcomer to stock purchasing, purely buying companies that you are "interested" in isn't really the smartest move. If you are questioning a tech forum on stock options, you should seriously reconsider purchasing them right now. Schedule an appointment with an investment advisor somewhere who can talk you through all your options. Something like an index/mutual fund might be a much smarter investment to start off with if you have no experience.

I understand the different ways to invest. Just continuously failing to pull the trigger on anything. I'm not looking to put all my eggs in basket. Just wanted a feel on these companies from our tech community.

 

Maybe I should rephrase. 

What tech companies do you have investments in and why?

A Reram developer

Hydrogen graphite conversion tech developer

Quantum dot manufacturer

LED developer printing diodes at 30% cost of current smd tech. 

 

Why, because they've consistently trended up and commercialising their technology in the last 2 years. probably cut and run soon though.

If I had money to blow in the stock market and it'd have to be a tech company, I'd go after the actual manufacturers, like Samsung, Micron, etc. on the principle that companies like NVIDIA, AMD, Qualcomm, and Apple depend on them to do business. None of those companies make any hardware, they only design them.

 

It's a similar tactic a friend of mine did. Rather than invest in Nike or some other sporting footwear company, he invested in Foot Locker.

I watched AMD stock back in August for a week or two. I analyzed its price over time charts looking at highs and lows etc...  I almost pulled the trigger then and it was at 9.18 a share or something like that.  I ended up not buying and chickened out. Today its at 17.49. Facepalm!

nice profit!

Somebody laughed at me on this forum when I said that I bought AMD for 13 Euro (last year). I sold for 25 Euro

By buying tech stocks, you are certianly putting eggs in "one basket"; instead, you should identify a goal: what do you plan to spend the money on, what dollar amount are you seeking for that money to achieve, and what time horizon do you have. Coupling that with the starting value of your cash outlay (say, $500), will allow you to more easily choose an investment. 

 

 

Keep in mind that fees, both for an advisor or broker and trading fees, exist for individual stocks when bought and sold. In addition, nearly all funds have AUM fees, which are compounded daily and also eat into your return. As such, it's highly recommend Ed that for those seeking initial investment advice to research index funds, and to purchase simple, broadly diversified indices; total us market, total international, and if young then perhaps a small cap valur and emerging market sliver each to slightly overweight those two asset classes. Though they are more volitile than the overall market, with a 25+ year investing horizon, small, value, and up and coming companies have historically done well.

 

Finally look into low/no fee funds at Vanguard, Fidelity, Schwab, iShares, or SPDR. Don't take my comment as wholesale advice; merely use it as a springboard to learn about these concepts and. Make a decision yourself. The reddits on Financial Independence, investing, and the bogleheads website are all wonderful sources on how to invest successfully.

 

Best of luck!

 

EDIT: to answer your rephrased question: what tech stocks I buy:

 

All. I buy every stock publicly traded in some form or another. Because I don't just put eggs from some baskets into my own; I buy the whole basket.

None, because I don't believe in investing in the never ending game of short-term gain for long-term pain, even at the company I work for even though they provide a tiny percentage of stocks after 1 year tenure to employees. (Going to sell 'em once they are high enough, and never look back.) If you want to invest, that's totally up to you, but I've seen stock markets almost kill companies because of short sighted investors & people pleasing boards of directors who are out of touch with the industry & consumers they serve. Starbucks, Amazon, and Dell are a few companies managing to turn things around for themselves over the last 10 years, but otherwise stocks can do more harm to employees and consumers than private investment can.
