- Investing in American defense stocks is investing in peace through strength. Also, having some defense stocks, such as $AVAV and $KTOS, is a great insurance for times of international tension. $NU is also performing well as a LATAM bank.
- This is the BEST way possible to start 2026: Making the world freer, safer, and fairer! Thanks, President Trump! 🫡
- Perfection
- Any 20-year lump sum investment into a 2x leveraged S&P 500 over the last 85 years would be positive and greatly outperforming the benchmark.
- Only 1% of the population will be rich at the age of 65. Only 4% will be financially independent. 95% will be unable to self-sustain. It's your duty to learn how to be smart with your money!
- I'm one of the few people in the market saying that leveraged ETFs like $UPRO and $TQQQ should be used for long-term investing. The reality is that a 3x leveraged index ETF can return you over 600x the returns of the S&P 500. Compound magic. - Henrique Centieiro
- Here are 6 papers if you wanna get really nerdy about leveraged ETFs.
- If your opinions are not backed by math, I don't even want to hear them.
- Why are people okay with using leverage to buy a house but totally against using leverage to buy stocks? It really boggles my mind! 🤷🏽♂️
- I'm probably the only person teaching how to use leverage to reduce risk!
- Believe me or not, but I have an automated strategy that can transform a little over $1,000 into $1 million in 20 years.
- I start buying aggressively when the S&P 500 goes under the 200 moving average. Why? Since 1928, the S&P 500 has spent 18% below the 200 MA. "Below 200 MA" is the best time to enter the markets. If you have the fundamentals in order of course.
- Risk is psychological! If you have invested $500 into $TQQQ every month for 2 years, you'd have more than triple your invested capital from $11,500 to $35,100. The question is: Do you have the stomach to stick to the strategy even when the market dropped by -59% in 2018 and -69% in 2020?
- An extremely simple DCA - Dollar Cost Averaging - strategy into $UPRO (3x leverage the S&P 500), would very easily transform $42.5k into $183k in 10 years.
- Would you take this bet? $TQQQ, $UPRO, $SPY
- The best definition of risk tolerance is: The ability to do nothing when your investments go down.
- Which investment would you choose? A. Bonds B. Blue chip stocks C. Tech stocks D. Leveraged ETFs like $UPTO, $TQQQ, $QLD, and co E. Crypto
- An investment in QLD right before the financial crisis would have had an 83% drawdown. However, at the end of 10 years, it would have returned 511%. More than double the Nasdaq return, which was 220% for the same period.
- This is how I make my best investments: Optimal L = R/σ² Simple and beautiful
- The average intra-year S&P 500 drawdown is -13%. Such great buy opportunities! Probably similar for Bitcoin!
- Show me the math against investing in Leveraged ETFs for the long run, and I will show you your IQ. 🤷🏽♂️
- Tell me one investment that performed better than Leveraged ETFs with the same risk profile as leveraged ETFs
- Nasdaq $NDX is dropping 4%. I love it when this happens. It creates opportunities and a new certainty: that today, stocks are cheaper than they were yesterday. 😍
- Other than Bitcoin, leveraged ETFs such as the $TQQQ and $UPRO are the best investments of the last decade. I wonder what people who say "leverage ETFs are bad for a long-term portfolio" think! Hello???
- Using *some* leverage can be amazing to compound returns over the long term. Any investment has volatility decay. The secret is to find the optimal leverage in order to maximize returns while limiting decay. This has been an object of my study for years.
- People use 10x leverage to buy a house, but everyone freaks out about using a 2x leverage to invest in stocks 🤦🏽♂️🤣
- NONE of the top richest people in the world made their money in the bond market or day trading.
- The top 1% richest have 61% of their portfolio in stocks. The bottom 50% have only 4% in stocks. LET THAT SINK IN
- There's a good reason why 100% of the top 10 largest companies in the world are American. Every investor should read this book: Why Nations Fail. Then, you will understand why the US stock market is the best.
- According to my proprietary risk indicators, NASDAQ starts entering a "risk area". My indicators measure VIX covariance and Entropic Value at Risk based on the Tsallis entropy model.
- AI is soon bringing 10x improvements to healthcare. The longer you live, the longer you will live. You need to get older slower than the AI development.
- Cloud companies will, most likely, continue to grow at least +37% CAGR. Leading the way: $AMZN, $MSFT, $GOOG, $ORCL, $SNOW
- Who knew muscle aches (+8%) and consistent wake times (+8%) could be good sleep MVPs? Shoutout to mouth tape (+7%) for the assist! 👌 @WHOOP
- On average, bull markets last 6 years. On average, bear markets last 1 year. Bear markets are great opportunities for smart investors to ride a bull market.
- 13% of the casino gamblers leave the casino a winner. 1% of day traders consistently beat the market. Why do people continue doing it??
- Every time I have See's Candies, I think about you, Charlie Munger 😇
- Are you a trader or a long-term investor? One study shows that 95% of day traders LOSE money. Another study shows that only 3% are profitable. Success rate is so low that it's hard to distinguish skill from luck. 80% of professional fund managers underperform the S&P 500
- Older people use ChatGPT as like a Google replacement. People in their 20s and 30s use it like a life advisor.
- Some of my favourite quotes by John Boggle, one of the best investors of all time and the father of index funds: “Time is your friend; impulse is your enemy.” “Simplicity is the master key to financial success.”
