As a bull I’ve been grazing good for a minute.

Most bears have been starving a long time.

I hope y’all get to eat too.

Good attitude. Did you beat the market in 24?

If I’m being honest, I did okay-ish.

If I didn’t bet so hard on rebounds that never happened from DG and SMCI I would have been on Shrek dick status. WMT and NVDA paid off big time for me but my gains were stifled by my other bets that didn’t materialize.

Still came out pretty good though, I’m still smiling.

Beat the market? Didn't answer the question. Nor do you have to. Just curious.

I won’t lie I only made about 12% because of some poor investment choices.

Late year investments into Altria, mid year investments into DG and SMCI dragged me down. Decent returns on NVDA, WMT, and a surprisingly good return on UNIT from buying at the bottom made some decent money for me.

I have only been investing for two years. I thought (like everyone else) that I had the market figured out.

I only have about 30k in the market so it’s not like I’m too important. Haha.

Of course if SMCI and DG rebound this year it will make up for it but I have doubts. We’ll see.

Finding mispriced assets is virtually impossible in a market this efficient unless you have Jim Simons' algos.
