SMH is still up over 50%. dafuq are you talking about down??? dont talk about things going down, your mother is a classy lady
SEC supposed to be independent of the Executive branch too. SMH.
I’m a LT investor. Don’t do any trading so I don’t ever sell my positions and only add onto them. I have mainly ETFs, a couple of mutual funds, AMZN and META in my portfolio. I had been wanting to buy real estate for a while so I had a large sum of cash in my HYSA. Changed my mind about real estate and so last year during the tariff saga, I lump summed about half of the funds into VOO and VGT (at a price of about $480ish for both funds). But then things turned around and stocks soared to ATHs. Been holding onto the rest of that cash waiting for the right time to get in and I finally started going in today. Got some VOO today at $585 and will continue to DCA next week if the dip continues. I know that I cannot time the bottom but something feels good about buying at a discount. Looking to get more VOO, SMH and META. Maybe finally get some NVDA too. We’ll see.
I bought VGT, AMZN, BRKB, SMH and SOFI. Little nibbles. Ive been buying the past two weeks. More as it falls. I prefer that because I won't time the bottom well. Running out of dry powder, however. Ill buy more next week.
I get breaking news for tiger woods but rarely for any of the stock manipulation tweets. SMH
If we hadn't topped for 5 months I would have banked on a short 10% pullback and then reverse but aftet 5 months of mostly distribution I somehow doubt this will end soon. I keep harping on semiconductors lol but they really haven't broken down yet and they need to in order for this to flush out. SMH and SOXX are still up ytd I think. Least they were last night when I checked.
Bibi controls all. It's like none of you even listened to Kanye when he was telling you. SMH my head

Have Any Of You Even BOTHERED To Say Thank You Yet? SMH
Agree. It feels like this is the first time it looks like the market is beginning to wisen up and not just move on his tweets and actually see what is going on. Took long enough. SMH
Up 10% YTD. Because I do what should not be done : I can't stay passive when I see myself rushing in a wall and can't help but "time the market". I had lot of SMH and Gold in complement to my World. Sold my SMH mid january, sold my World mid February. I still have my gold, and a lot of cash now, waiting for an opportunity and sleeping well at night. I know... I should not try to manage actively my portfolio, more so by being so binary and timing the market... But when I saw the way Trump started the year (Venezuela, Greenland, NATO shit and all, Iran threat brewing), AI hype fading, late cycle kinda rotation, gold booming abnormaly, tarifs being judged illegals for most parts, nvidia results incoming with impossible expectations to meet... All of that + macro figures telling a slowing of the economy.... I couldn't help but to sell and stay on the sideline and it turns out well for me. But maybe I'm just lucky and shouldn't ever try that again and stay disciplined... Maybe. Also I may lose hard if I miss my comeback. :)
I was told I missed the bottom and I'd never have a chance to buy again. Meanwhile SMH and SOXX are still up ytd. We've barely pulled back. If semis break down than we can talk about a bottom.
mometum stocks will recover first. i keep 10% in SMH as well
The ETFs are better. I am just giving you names like QQQ or SMH or MAGS. If you still want stocks, I am giving some names, you need to review in details which is good for you. MSFT, NVO, V (Visa), CPB, HMY, then CTAS,SAP,GOOGL and META. BTW: I just monitor many companies, but my investment is very low 10% or below, as I focus on trading. Of all these, I own NVO and HMY only in my accounts.
Get back to us when your at least double digits. Not even down six figures. SMH
Also damn, SPY done shit the bed just like every bear with two brain cells to rub together knew it would. SMH
With the market going lower, and may go further down, the best path for you is to make a plan to invest the same $60k but on a recurring basis every week over the span of next 12 - 16 months … Just pick up some ETFs like $VOO $QQQM $VXUS $SCHD $SMH $GLD The results in around 2 years will amaze you

I have all kinds of permutations with investing,trading, gains and losses. Since Dec 2017, I made nice money, but greediness (wreckless options) killed one key account during 2021 - just in 3 months. I am recovering since then, but very slowly and carefully. Long story short: You need to understand **money lost with market is permanent loss**. Psychologically, you need to absorb it. Review what you did and stop bad practices, wreckless options and margins (this is immediate) Then, **make your own rules and follow it**. Understand you can save existing money and grow slowly, read books for both investing and trading. Use etfs and positive betting, like buying VOO or QQQ, never short, never go options. Simple buy low sell high (if trading) or buy low, dca lower and hold long (if investing like VOO, QQQ or SMH). **Never try to run 100 miles speed, 3 to 5 miles are enough to make progress**. It take many years to bring back the life to positive trend, growth and financially better life. Good Luck.
I mean for the most part, this month has indeed been about Iran and it has been the Main Topic, but I really don't think today has been for a change of pace outside the energy sector. Vol is fairly chill, the IGV is down 4% while the SMH is green, and most SPX sectors are in the green at least as of this post. It literally does look as if we took a break from Iran jitters and threw it back to earlier this year where anything Anthropic announced bombed the sector it affected.
Yeah if oil is removed as a factor today, this action does look similar to earlier where we were shooting everything that may be disrupted by AI, with one difference... Memory appears to be in deep trouble of potentially tipping over. (even though it appears that way, IGV is still lagging SMH) Next time tech lags for a period, everyone should listen though. It's likely going to end in tears, I mean, it even did with Biden twice (the second time was minor though).
Only had a dozen or so 1600% plays today. SMH. Trading this market is so hard.
After I sell then my position becomes profitable SMH
Idk the specifics of a Roth, but in Canada the Roth equivalent is not supposed to be for day trading. The taxman will take you to court if you get a bagger in a TFSA and will tax the gains at the full income tax rate, double the normal unregistered 50% inclusion rate. Of course, either way you don't get to deduct all your losses. Every time I see someone posting huge gains or losses inside a TFSA, I SMH. If you lose, you fuck yourself out of tax deductions and future tax-free compounding gains. If you win, depending on how much you won and what province you live in, you have to pay up to an eyewatering 60% of your bagger in taxes to various branches of government. It's worse than gambling because gambling isn't taxable. FFS stop gambling in registered accounts! It's honestly scummy they even allow 0dtes when it's so obviously in violation of the no day trading rule. They let you get away with it because they know they'll get to take their cut when the time comes.
SMH went up so much that the Italian stock exchange halted trading, pretty gay if you ask me
I just never come across SMH anywhere... it seems like people prefer to pick...
TSM is a great one. I own the stock. However, if you’re looking to diversify SMH holds TSM, it’s a bit more diversified and you can sock money and leave it there. 20% of my portfolio is in SMH for your reference.
Good. If you voted for this, you deserve this. And Latino business owners at that. You’re not one of them. SMH…you dumb mf’s.
So how does mods expect us not to talk about the politcal news that directly affect the market without being banned! SMH
Great analysis. Although, literally the world’s future depends on a decision on this deadline. He’s so erratic now my confidence is lower - definitely possible he goes ahead with his threat - he knows the whole world is watching for his decision. Worldwide catastrophe if Iran responds as they’ve said they’ll do. They’ve been grossly underestimated already. Insane we got to this point, where the world’s future hangs in the balance of one man’s decision. SMH.
Use XHB instead of NAIL 3X or -3X to go long or short NAIL. Perform technical analysis on XHB and take the trade only if the trend or direction is clear. 3X can multiply or kill and need lot of patience and will not recover to original amounts as they decay a bit. For SOXL, use SOXX or SMH as base For NAIL, use XHB Similarly for other 3X, god speed!
It wasn't the raping of children, collusion with Russia, or ICE separating families and murdering civilians, it's gas prices for these people... SMH...
Tbh, I don’t focus too much on individual stocks, my main priority for now is broad indexes. At the moment, only these three individual: MSFT, GOOG, and DOCU. The latter is the most interesting in my opinion, as I don’t see how AI is an enemy of DocuSign. If anything, it’s a booster for their product. As for the indexes, I’m selling puts now on the classic ones: VOO, VTI, VXUS, and I just started with SMH and XSD. As gold seems to be coming back to a more reasonable price, I’ll probably add IAU into the game.
The consensus in this sub is about as regarded as the current admin but somehow yall can’t predict boots on the ground, SMH.
It's hilarious that soxx and SMH has barely been touched throughout all this but both have massive topping patterns
Stay well away from this NXXT trash, I can see the bots are out in force today SMH
So much winning right brah? SMH. 
SMH at people who don't know the difference between monetary and fiscal policy. Too bad Congress is about as effective as a screen door on a submarine.
If you wanna be in semi then don't just full port NVDA SMH (semi ETF) is much better
That's what i've been thinking. I like the stock but I am going trough a phase in my life where i would enjoy a bit more stability and less of a "thrill" every time I open Degiro. I'm going to do 30 this year and eventough I only started trading a couple years ago i feel like the strategy that people usually call here the "VWCE and chill" appelas to me more and more has the days go by. I'll give SMH a go. Thank you my friend
You already won, I would de-risk a bit and perhaps move to the SMH (still risky though, but less than one single stock)
That pump at 3pm killed you. And I had sold my calls by then already for a loss. SMH
SMH is the most well-known. I own it too, holding long term.
If SMH breaks down below 375 things are going to get real ugly.
own the SMH, and forget about it for 5 years.
LMAO people not reading the satcasm in here. SMH
Damn. You made him private it. SMH. What did he have on there?
why didn't I grab NBIS Puts Yesterday SMH.
Drone stock IPO. Was waiting for it and didn't trust putting in a limit order of 1k at $14 SMH. That would've played out nicely.
SMH people still call their banks in the big 2026? I just hit up the bank manager on Discord /s
I'm going to buy SMH now, I know I'm late but it looks good
Looks like you're doing great to me. I'd add a little VXUS and a little SMH and call it a day. Everyone has their own little tilt.
Soxx is fine but SMH has more AUM, volume, and historically has outperformed most semi etfs, for the uninformed.
Mooning would be $8-10 bills. Is up $6ish what it is. SMH
SMH 671 you were the chosen one you were supposed to bring balance (resistance) to the force, not ruin it

Thanks for sharing. The wrestling guy makes this legendary. But IMO, you have a lot of cash and you need to survive on it. If you have to trade it why not trade on something you know will still leave you with something tomorrow? Like, wheel VXX or USO if you **must** gamble. But if you want to survive, wheel BRK-B, UNH, or SMH. Or IGV. These will keep you afloat.
🅱️resi now begging other countries to send some warships after shitting on them. SMH
Buy in Euros if the option is there, otherwise you end paying FX from currency exchange. As for ETFs, I keep buying UCITS because it's the only option available in Europe, you can't buy certain US etfs because in EU there are regulations, for instance SMH (semiconductors) is different in US and EU, the EU is capped at max 10% allocation to one company, while US is around 18% into NVIDIA for instance (more risk and more return).
Is he literally asking for help now after a religious war he started for Israel? SMH 🤦♀️
Simple solution John works Monday-Friday. Josh works Wednesday-Sunday. Tom works Friday-Tuesday. Literally just put people on different shifts. All workers get off 2 days and 40 hours worth of work just assigned different days. Heck I'd love Wednesday-Sunday. I can still use Monday and Tuesday to visit the bank during business hours. SMH the only day I can go to the bank in person currently is on Saturday for a very tiny 4 hour window.
Check out SMH or SOXX, semiconductor etfs.
If you’re looking for etfs look at SMH. But maybe wait until the Iran stuff has a resolution, everything is tanking right now
Very much doubt that timeline. QQQ and SMH just turned to downtrend while mags and other main indices have already been for a while now. Semis are last leg to go.
hey, welcome to the market! those ETFs you picked are solid for the future, especially with tech trends on the rise. SMH is a good play with the whole AI chips thing blowing up. AIQ’s got that broad exposure, which is key since AI’s gonna touch a lot of sectors. BOTZ is interesting too, robotics is just getting started. as for ROI, it’s tough to predict exactly, but if you’re looking at a 25-year horizon, aiming for 8-12% annually isn’t unrealistic for tech-heavy funds. just remember, markets can be super volatile in the short term, so hang tight during the dips, and keep investing through them! keep an eye on news like the recent developments in Iran oil too; it can affect the broader market. but overall, it sounds like you’re on the right track!
I’m mostly VT with some SCHD and SMH. Down 3-4% from recent highs.
So we bombed a water desalinization plant where civilians get their drinking water from. But we don’t bomb oil infrastructure because that would be mean? Oh the priorities! SMH
Loaded up on SMH and NVDA POOTS
I have AVGO SMH DKNG and QQQM CSPs that all expire next week. They are all very close to the money rfn. am i fuk next week?
Algos logged into my account and bought a bunch of 0dte SPY puts. SMH
Those have pretty high expense. If you want AI exposure your probably better off buying QQQ and maybe SMH
Always kills me, could have made 4x $$ and it's not enough. SMH.
Yeah parading USN ships in a defile 10 miles from downward-looking Iranian missile and drone launchers is exactly what we need to do. SMH!
I’m doing SMH in brokerage and VTI everywhere else. I’m 30, I’m in this for the long run.
I dig it. Needs some SMH and NUKZ thought. Maybe some SHLD.
#TLDR --- Ticker: SMH / XME / IDRV (Semiconductors, Steel, EVs) Direction: Volatile Prognosis: Buy straddles on Semis, Steel, and EVs ahead of the May 2026 trade hearings Time Travel Status: Confirmed (OP is posting DD from the future: March 2026) Collateral Damage: Global supply chains, foreign factories, and your cheap Temu orders

I want SMH to crash to 675 so I can buy more. Sorry bulls
The International Energy Agency'splan to release 400 million barrels of oil from strategic reserves to mitigate supply disruptions could take weeks or months to reach buyers. But the market was inmutable today. SMH
To my knowledge, P/E ratios and forward P/E of AI-related stocks (specifically semiconductors, like the stocks in the SMH etf) are way lower than tech stocks were in the 2000 bubble. Maybe there will be a pop if you are buying AI startups that fail, but it’s hard to imagine a bubble pop at the scale of the tech bubble for at least part of the industry.
Ha I own all of those, except CELH, ELF, and MU and kicking myself for selling MU early last year and swapping it for index fund SMH. I sold ELF swapping for ULTA. Parts of the portfolio act as a ballast that pay dividends like KO, TGT and MCD and are not expected to take off like MU.
Sold my USO 3/27 $115 calls this AM during the oil release announcement thinking they’d drive price down. SMH……
If only our oil tankers were getting bombed at during market hours, I’d be playing a put trade. SMH , all the moves are happening overnight - here’s hoping some fund blows up tomorrow over some leveraged private market shit or something
>focus on ETFs that are not heavily invested in the AI and technological sector Tech generates by far the most profits in today's world. Profits are what drives invidual stock prices up in value, and thus the indices holding them. Leaving them off the table means less return. Your SP500 and NAS100 top weights are NVDA AAPL GOOGL GOOG MSFT AMZN META AVGO and all of them are consistently setting new top and bottom line numbers over time. NVDA and AAPL each broke $40b in profit last quarter. Also past few years, growth has been dominated by semiconductor (SMH) and other AI adjacencies such as energy and datacenter infrastructure. You might find an ETF that has done well in past 1Y or even 5Y period. But it likely won't hold up to ETF's holding the above in the long run. Something like VDPG doesn't even beat SP500 on 5Y lookback. With SP500, it rotates winners in and losers out. That's why it histroically goes up over time. So by holding it, you don't need to be concerned with which sectors or companies are prospering and which ones are not.
These BOLS don’t see this. SMH
Tmrw it better not slice through resistance with ease otherwise it’s obvious that market is rigged. SMH
Cut your losses, put the money that's left into a growth stock like SMH.
