AMZN
Amazon.com Inc.
stock NASDAQ

I played with puts on each stock, trying to get a cheaper entry point. Once I was happy, I began writing aggressive puts looking for assignment. I continued writing more slightly OTM puts in the chance to average down even more, and eventually got a good cost basis.
As an example, my AMD right now has a cost basis of $36, and am planning to exit around $130-135 range. Not bad for 6 months! My TSLA costs about $26 (after all my premiums). AMZN @ $84, GOOGL @ $86, META @ $125.
The strategy is (generally) working for me; still learning to tweak it it here and there.

Google, Disney, Amazon, VTI were picks I made with plans to hold until I retire (20+ yrs) - they felt safe to me.
Affirm was my employer and I received all the shared via a grant. I made the mistake of being too emotionally attached to the shares and should’ve sold them long ago.
I’m certain I’ll never gain back all the AFRM loss but I do believe it will at least make its way back to 30 in the next year or so…all depends on the macro environment. I got to know the business over the years and it’s not as bleak as the public thinks.
BABA I believed was oversold due to political fears and their covid economy - I still believe I’d at least break even eventually…but wondering if I should just rip off the bandaid now and reallocate to more GOOG/AMZN.
Redfin….I’m just an idiot. I don’t want to get into it.
Cresco, small speculative buy as I like their products

AMD, AMZN, DDOG, GOOGL, MARA, META, TSLA are my regulars.
Yes, it ties up capital, but it suits my retirement needs.

$NVDA
Let's overtake $AMZN market cap!

Those are also different plays in a market recovery.
Security stocks and C3ai might be my pick to look at along with DELL.
I tend to have a fairly short-term horizon on my picks and buys as I want returns quickly. If not, then buying the bigger names may offer better upside at lower risk. Buying AMZN, MSFT,
GooG, or even NVDA on a short leash, is virtually guaranteed money. With NVDA up another 5% today that is a fine return on invested capital.

AMZN 130 this week, I can feel it in my bones

* **Historical Move v Implied Move:** We determine the historical volatility (log variance of daily gains) of the underlying asset (HV) and compare that to the current implied volatitlity (IV) of the option price. This is used to determine the Call or Put Premium.
* **Expiration:** 2023-06-02.
* **Call/Put Pricing:** How much extra you are paying for IV relative to HV. Low numbers mean "cheaper." High numbers mean "expensive." A 1 means "fairly" priced.
* **Efficiency:** This the bid/ask spreads and the depth of the order book relative to the price and approximates the cost of a round trip trade. Lower numbers are less efficient than higher numbers.
* **E.R.:** Days unitl the next Earnings Release.
* **Direction:** This ranges from -100 (bearish) to +100 (bullish). It accounts for RSI, trend, moving averages and put/call skew over the past 4 weeks.
* **Why isn't my stock on this list?** It doesn't have "weeklies", the underlying is "too cheap", or the options markets are too illiquid (open interest) to qualify for this strategy. 480 underlyings are used in this report and only the top results end up passing the criteria for each filter.
* **How should this be improved?** Do you have any suggestions or notice any bugs with this report?

I’m kind of salty that you can’t fund a 401k these days without it being dominated by MSFT NVDA GOOG AMZN META etc.
The economy cannot actually just be 5 corporations in a trench coat, right?

AMZN

I’m assuming you made a profit?

I won’t hate on anyone for locking in gains, but what’s the plan? What if AMD doesn’t fall half that much? I know what I would do is sell at $130, wait for $115 but if AMD got that low say “might as well wait for $110”, FOMO back in at $140.

For me everything worth owning is just expensive right now even my beloved MSFT, **maybe** AMZN/GOOG but if I were to think about putting money into those I’d rather buy more MSFT. Anything not worth owning a month ago is still expensive right now IMO so I’ll just watch from a distance.

I don’t see a lot of stocks that excite me more than just riding the AMD rollercoaster.

Good luck, I hope you’re dead wrong on AMD.

AMZN showing strength

MSFT AMZN GOOG all red

* **Historical Move v Implied Move:** We determine the historical volatility (log variance of daily gains) of the underlying asset and compare that to the current implied volatitlity (IV) of the option price. This is used to determine the Call or Put Premium associated with the pricing of options (implied volatility).
* **Directional Bias:** Ranges from -100 (bearish) to +100 (bullish) and accounts for RSI, price trend, moving averages, and put/call skew over the past 6 weeks.
* **Priced Move:** given the current option prices, how much in dollar amounts will the underlying have to move to make the call/put break even. This is how much vol the option is pricing in. The expected move.
* **Expiration:** 2023-07-07.
* **Call/Put Premium:** How much extra you are paying for the implied move relative to the historic move. Low numbers mean options are "cheaper." High numbers mean options are "expensive."
* **Efficiency:** This factor represents the bid/ask spreads and the depth of the order book relative to the price of the option. It represents how much traders will pay in slippage with a round trip trade. Lower numbers are less efficient than higher numbers.
* **E.R.:** Days unitl the next Earnings Release. This feature is still in beta as we work on a more complete list of earnings dates.
* **Why isn't my stock on this list?** It doesn't have "weeklies", the underlying is "too cheap", or the options markets are too illiquid (open interest) to qualify for this strategy. 480 underlyings are used in this report and only the top results end up passing the criteria for each filter.

You're in the wrong subreddit.
For far more financially savvy responses and discussions, there's r/financialindependence, r/Bogleheads, r/personalfinance, r/investing, etc.
Regarding your main question, VOO tracks the S&P 500 which already includes US large-cap growth and US large-cap value companies blended together.
VGT tracks an index of only US tech companies so it doesn't include companies like META, GOOGL, AMZN, etc, since those companies are not classified as US tech.
On the other hand, SCHG (and equivalent VUG) track US large-cap growth companies so it tracks more companies than VGT since its reach is wider.
It's clear you need a grasp on what you're actually attempting to invest in.
I'm blown away you lost $375K with LUNA.
Best of luck.

As someone working in finance, I've come to learn over the years that if you're still in the accumulation phase of life prior to retirement, it's a good idea to get your first $100K-200K in some broad blended stock index fund that mixes growth and value, that mixes non-dividend payers and dividend payers. Good example would be VOO (S&P 500) or any total US stock index fund. This move prevents underperforming the broader Market when starting out.

all on AMZN - it's been lagging so there's going to be fomos on lagged tech AI hype stocks

So there’s FOMO going into AMZN/TSLA along with NVDA…yeah if those swing up I don’t think Nasdaq is stopping anytime soon

NVDA, MSFT, AMZN, GOOGL, AMD

It’s 7 stocks, which represent 35% of SPY
MSFT AAPL GOOG META NVDA AMZN TSLA, because AI AI AI
As long as those keep going up, SPY will keep going up. And they may keep going up for just long enough that the real market recovers and the other 65% start going back up. 🤷‍♂️

Short AMZN

AMZN, GOOG, MSFT, all the fast food restaurants and many others
