Orange Santa is giving us a beautiful rally to end the year. Cheers.
As we sit here on Christmas Eve, I am going to take a moment to wish everyone and their families a great holiday. I am also going to take a moment to apologize to anyone in this thread I have been a dick to this year. Not the rest of the board, just this thread. I realize that as I post across various threads I have on lots of occasions posted something here in a style that did not fit the spirit of what we are about in this thread. This thread should only be about helping each other make the Benjamins. I am also hyper competitive and I let it bleed out into my posts on occasion. So to all I have offended here this year...
That being said a new investing year is upon us. I am willing to help anyone who asks. We all have different strategies and I have a very specific one. I am generally risk averse, and focus on minimizing any losses by keeping my dollars in ultra high quality stocks. I rarely gamble. I go old school and spend lots of times dissecting financial statements. Its all about consistency for me. I had one red month all year and 11 green months. I used options to add alpha throughout the year.
This is my 3rd year out of 4 beating the S&P and that is my only goal. If I can't beat the S&P then I should just put all my money into SPY and walk away. My return this year is insane and a couple of stocks really pushed it (TSLA, PLTR, etc). I don't invest for homeruns, so I tend to ignore meme stocks and the flavor of the month. I want EPS and EPS growth, low debt and lots of cashflow. I especially like market dominance bordering on monopolistic positions.
