TSM

LOL bought TSM Monday, close to a 5% return last two days thought I was a genius.
Then today - I'm cursed

TSM

wtf no? why would you sell NVDA for a loss?
Take your gains in TSM, if anything.

Haven't seen any bad news. Just usual "it's going to pop". We've heard that before. Meanwhile, TSM keeps building factories and so does intel.

NOEV, IREN, MDA, TSM

TSM is getting fucking crushed. Glad I bought 5k shortly after open when I thought the profit taking was done. Fuck.

The 'Mag 7' is somewhat irrelevant without companies like AVGO MU TSM and LLY.
It's time to start referring to 'The Trillionaires' for the 12ish companies larger than 1T.

Not sure why anyone would use an all stock portfolio, much less a US large cap only stock portfolio, as their baseline when there is so much else to invest in. At least use TSM or an appropriate target retirement fund. That's still mostly large cap US stocks, but at least it's not ALL large cap stocks. But if you're trying to figure out if there's an illiquidity premium, you have to compare like to like. Compare big public businesses to big private businesses. Compare liquid real estate to illiquid real estate.

I got 30% of my total investments on TSM, which is pretty high but it’s done well; calm & steady. As far as China risk is concerned, I consider TSM risk similar to strait of hormones. If there is a hiccup with TSM due to geopolitical tension, it will drive down a lot of companies, including our automobile, technology medial equipment aerospace and defense industries. It’s unlikely for this administration to make the same reckless mistake twice as they are announcing peace with Iran and giving into their demands

Avgo, TSM and Amazon easiest gains

Jesus, why would you sell all your ASML? ASML is a better stock than TSM IMO and is my biggest holding. TSM is great ofc, but the market always nervous about China risks - I think it therefore actually trades lower than it should.

Sure bets: MSFT AVGO ASML NVDA TSM

Personally, I don’t think so. US companies nowadays get a large portion of their revenue from overseas. I have SMH which gives me exposure to TSM and ASML…DRAM can give you exposure to Samsung and SK. That would let you still get US exposure and 4 of the best overseas chip companies

What valuations? Do you understand forward P/E and PEG ratios? FCF yields?
Of the mag 7, only TSLA is expensive. META, MSFT, AMZN very cheap.
Memory names trade on single digit fwd PE and like 0.2 PEG. Throwing out insane margins and profits.
Software is in the dump. Bottom of barrel valuations.
Other tech like NFLX, UBER are now cash flow machines trading at lower multiples than SPY.
Most semis are priced reasonably for theor growth rates. TSM, AVGO, AMD, etc.
Financials are flat on the year.
Healthcare just started to rally.
Energy and Industrials are fair value or cheap.
BTC is in a winter.
All of this while earnings growth keeps getting revised higher and higher each of the last several quarters.

TSM almost to $500! come on!

TSM, unless China blows it up.

Fair point, I get where you’re coming from.
Just to clarify the timeline a bit because the screenshot only shows a snapshot in time.
Until around November last year my portfolio was roughly in the 1M range. Starting in December I gradually de-risked and took profits from a few positions and moved more into cash. Then in January I started building MU in tranches rather than all at once.
The allocation you see in the screenshot is just the result of how it evolved after that point, not a single “initial position” size.
And yeah, I agree with you that calling it “small” in percentage terms is not really accurate at that stage of the portfolio. That was just me being loose with wording in the post.
Overall the past few months have been very strong for me, around 400%+ returns, which honestly is not something I take as normal or repeatable. I’m very aware this is a cycle-driven outcome and I’m not assuming it continues in a straight line.
For context, my longer term holdings are things like AAPL, MSFT, GOOG, INTC, LITE, TSM.
Not trying to flex anything here, just sharing how the position developed over time.
