Bumping this. 2022 is here. Thoughts heading into the new year?

I agree that 2022 looks to be very volatile, will probably be a trader’s Paradise. Im focusing on companies that are profitable with very reasonable multiples. Many high multiple stocks have been cut down to much fairer levels but there’s still a lot of risk in this market for companies with flimsy fundamentals.On the Crypto front I asked Balaji what to read and he suggested this. So I did. https://messari.io/pdf/messari-report-crypto-theses-for-2022.pdf
on the stock front, I honestly think 2022 is shaping up to be potentially pretty wild. Lots of volatility. So my only thought is to avoid individual stocks unless you feel really good about the long term.
Dividend companies and ETF's are what im looking at. As well as carbon credits and UraniumDoing what I've done for the last 20 years. Boring Vanguard mutual funds through dollar cost averaging each month. Worked so far!

Alternatively, lower-fee ETFs via Vanguard or similar competitors. Here, 90/10 ETFs (few lingering mutual funds)/self-managed securities, cuz' boring's not bad!Doing what I've done for the last 20 years. Boring Vanguard mutual funds through dollar cost averaging each month. Worked so far!
All roads always lead back to Chainlink.Agree that blockchain platforms like you mentioned above are the best investments in crypto right now. Eventually projects that allow for interoperability across blockchains as well as oracles will have their day in the sun too.
I see LINK as a really safe bet with huge potential down the road. They completely dominate their space as oracles that allow blockchains to use real world data and aren’t going anywhere. Some of the platforms will eventually fall off and Chainlink is involved in virtually every one so you’re safe almost no matter what.
LINK price at make-or-break point as Chainlink aims to secure $2.27 trillion crypto economy
This as well. Couldn't agree more. I made my New Year's investing plans early this year and put them into motion around Thanksgiving.Dividend companies and ETF's are what im looking at.
What’s a great ETF for semiconductors? I want more broad exposure to this industry.

I'm just hanging on INTC LT; flat now, & continue hoping Gelsinger pulls it off. In general, western world must manufacture more outside at-risk Taiwan and its' west TW mainlandI will admit here I’m long Intel. I like Pat Gelsinger, who was good at EMC and then great at VMW. Have listened too him often enough to consider him very forward looking. He is ex Intel and came back to fix it. It’s not an easy fix, and he is making big long term changes. Market of course, focuses on near term and punishes the stock. But I expect Intel to bring a lot of capacity online, including US and European manufacturing. They will also catch up on performance. I think the stock is a bargain.
Ha, I don’t even want to look at the markets anymore, much less talk about them. For people with dry powder and balls though. I think there are some great buys down here, especially on tech.What happened to all the stock chatter?? LOL

Yeah, I'm just sitting for now. But I honestly stand by what I said. Omicron is getting everyone, and for the moment, and maybe the next 2-3 weeks, that is causing a mess. So many people out, things just not functioning. Supply chain, staffing, everything. But the upside of that is that by February, cases are going to drop like a rock.
Market is looking scared right now, but this (unlike inflation) is truly transitory, and what's on the other side looks better than anything has since same time 2020.
I don’t think Omicron is really that big of a factor, it’s the Fed tightening that has the markets so spooked. Hopefully we get an inflation report this week that is lower than expected and a nice relief rally afterwards.Yeah, I'm just sitting for now. But I honestly stand by what I said.

That was me. They've got a game changing photonic process that will allow for faster data transmission using less electricity. Anyone in a data center will tell you the "less electricity" part is huge. Those of us that have it are hoping to hear about sales. This is currently a no revenue business that is between R&D and commercialization.Someone here mentioned LWLG a few months back. Today's was it's highest close ever. Everyone should at least take a look at this one. Low share count, no debt, game changing technology.
