Looking back, I'm so glad I sold NVDA at a profit at $65. If I had held on I'd probably think I was a genius or something and people around me would be annoyed.

So I plugged into my watchlist portfolio back in 1/1 2018 the FAANG stocks.
These consist of 5 stocks and here's what they've done since that date. NFLX ....137% AMZN.....136% AAPL.......115% GOOGL....34% FB...........28% That's 2 yrs and 6 months . You do the math. When does it stop? |

I mentioned it a thousand posts or so ago, but one thing that I noticed in 2020 was that the Nasdaq stocks seem to be outperforming the rest of the market during bull markets, and they also went down a lot less in the March crash. I've been buying Nasdaq stocks almost exclusively over the past couple of months and my life has been better as a result. I've always held off on NFLX because I don't think they've got an unassailable market position, but the world apparently disagrees with me, so I finally gave up and started buying a little of it.

I'm Nasdaq heavy and those stocks have kicked butt. My DOCU is up 133.56 since 3-11. I bought in at three different points but overall but that's what it's done for me.

Legit question??? Why don't companies like that do a stock split to get the shares back to a reasonable price? I know percentage is percentage but most people won't buy a 5000 dollar share because that's all they have to invest.

We AMZN owners don’t want to rub elbows with riff raff at shareholder meetings.

I recall reading once that Warren Buffet would never do a stock split on Berkshire Hathaway because it apparently costs some money to do it and he viewed it as an unnecessary expense. I would agree that it does price some people out when the stock gets to a high dollar amount like $100,000+ a share for Berkshire. (Buffet eventually started a different class of stock at a lower price, but I don't know if that was a cheaper option or if there was some other reason.)
