What do you want your stock to do?
0️⃣: Pay me income, forget growth
1️⃣: Mostly income, some growth

3️⃣: Mostly growth, a small dividend is nice
4️⃣: No dividend, reinvest it all for growth

Holding Period (0-4 points)

🎯 6–10 Points → Procter & Gamble (PG) – Dividend growth and stability with a touch of market upside. Classic, reliable compounder.
🎯 11–15 Points → Apple (AAPL) – Balanced growth + dividends. Global brand power, slow & steady wealth builder.
🎯 16–18 Points → Nvidia (NVDA) – High-growth market leader. You can handle volatility for long-term upside in AI & tech.
🎯 19–20 Points → Palantir (PLTR) – You’re swinging for the fences. Risk is high, but so is potential reward if the story plays out.

🤑 Which do you think are the best performing stocks in the S&P500 over the last money?
$PLTR $MSFT $NVDA $META $UNH $VLO $LLY

😯 We could be seeing a major shift in the markets where the last three years' outperformance in tech stocks and the Magnificent 7 is broadening out to other sectors. Of the stocks above, the popular tech names (PLTR, MSFT, NVDA and META) have lost an average 6% over the past month with PLTR down double-digits 13% over the period. The market is rethinking AI spending and valuations and investors are hesitating throwing more money at the theme. I think AI will without a doubt change our lives and these companies will lead but like the dot-com bust, we could see a selloff before that is finally proven.

💰 Meanwhile the rest of the market is still looking very attractive. Shares of UNH are up 38% over the past month as medicare advantage insurers finally start to rebound after a multi-year plunge. Energy stocks like Valero Energy, up 21%, are bouncing off oversold conditions and even drugmakers like Eli Lilly (+20%) are rebounding.
