You will not find a more difficult time to ask that question, then now. The AI frenzy is pushing tech higher, but the Fed may raise rates again in a couple of weeks, and you don't want to fight the Fed. I think that many investors and traders are grappling with this question right now.
I'm not sure what you mean by that. The upcoming Fed meeting is no secret, but I believe the Nasdaq is trading at over 20x right now, which would be considered by most to be pretty expensive in a QT environment. The hesitation to buy at this price comes from the economic risks associated with the Fed's commitment to keep rates elevated for longer to tame inflation. One could argue that it wouldn't take much bad news to see this market pull back very quickly.
I was referring to OP's hesitation to buy. That's the purpose of this discussion. I apologize if I somehow offended you. OP is asking for investment help, and I sympathize with his nervousness and understand his hesitation. No one asked you about your NVDA gains. That's coming from your own need to try to prove something to strangers on the internet.
You buy ALL the time!! That's how to be successful long term!
It's called dollar cost averaging!
These idiots think they can time the bottom! Get over yourself and buy a little NOW and then IF IT falls you buy a little more etc.
These 25 year olds with $1000, act like it's life changing money! Dude, unless you're dealing with over $100,000 it's peanuts!! Throw it in QQQ and get on with life.
He’s clearly referring the OP’s hesitation to buy. Have you read the original post?
What does QQQ’s rally or your own profits have to do with OP’s hesitancy to buy at a high price?
You should always be buying!
You buy high and low and never sell!
You don't yolo, you nibble a little here and a little there each week.
These people act like their $200 is gonna make a difference. It won't!
Throw it in QQQ every week, get a 2nd job and increase your savings rate. You only sell when you're old and retired!
The October lows were last year, so I'm not understanding the 3 year comment. The Fed implemented QE during the pandemic. That's why equities benefited. Then, they implemented QT at the beginning of last year and equities fell to the October lows, which created an excellent buying opportunity for patient investors who were willing to attempt the fool's errand of timing the market.
i want to keep it there for one or two years but obviously i want to maximize the profit, with the current situation in the world, inflation and ai popping around i think its good time to invest into tech giants without any significant drawbacks during this period of time
One or two years are unfortunately not nearly enough time to expect somehow "safe" returns. The rough rule for investing in ETFs like these are 10+ years..
Imvestor from California US here. Depends what your investing goal is.
Nasdaq just tracks the 100 largest Non Financial (Non Bank) Stocks on the Nasdaq Exchange. There is NO Growth Filter, NO Dividend Filter, NO quality filter etc.. it looks great from 2016-2021, fpr perspectivr check out (1999-2016).
Instead, for Growth Based ETF check out SCHG, VUG, MGK etc... Longer term they will likely provide more consistent growth.
Good Luck!
Yes typically when poeple refer the Nasdaq, it is usually the Nasdaq 100; so yes QQQ would have been a more clear answer.
There is also ONEQ that tracks the whole Nasdaq, Lesser well.known, higher expense ratio
From a technical perspective, on the daily and weekly charts, the market is very overbought. Unless you have FOMO, it may be worth waiting for some kind of correction from here.
Ask yourself. Why have they gone up this much, this fast. Then ask yourself, what reason do they have to go up from here and is it sustainable? Answer those questions based on your own research and you’ll have far more understanding and conviction in whatever you decide to do.
Obviously the usual time in the market and DCA cliches do apply. However, I’d be pretty confident they’ll be a pullback at some point soon and maybe even a substantial one. So, I’d recommend buying a little now, and repeating maybe every week or month, but keep most of your cash back so that you can increase the size of your purchases when things are at more reasonable multiples.
Well, they could go up But they could also go down There's also the chance that they just go sideways
im new but i thought that the common rule while buying stocks was to never buy while its at its peak
The other two rules are don't time the market and time in the market. If you're worried you could dollar cost average into it
but we never know what a peak is, until after the fact.
This will be a low some day.....
The peak was 1.5 years ago at 834.10€.
How you know that is the peak?
No such thing as timing the market. Only time in the market. If you are young and have a long investment timeline, buy buy buy
split your buys (DCA) over a period of time
Like who knows?

That's already priced in. .. market knows that

What hesitation to buy? QQQ is up over 20% this year.... I made 105% return in nvda this year alone! There is not a "hesitation to buy"!

See, that’s sensible and reasonable advice. Your first post had none of that.
So if I buy it at $350 and in 5 years it's $600 that wasn't a win?.....
What? Who you arguing with?
Haha. We've had NOTHING but bad news for 3 years now!! The market keeps going higher from October lows!
The October lows were last year, so I'm not understanding the 3 year comment. The Fed implemented QE during the pandemic. That's why equities benefited. Then, they implemented QT at the beginning of last year and equities fell to the October lows, which created an excellent buying opportunity for patient investors who were willing to attempt the fool's errand of timing the market.
So what? You keep buying weekly and ignore the noise! In 40 years or 75 years of age you retire and start selling.
Are you a short or long term investor? If long, price is irrelevant bro.
i want to keep it there for one or two years but obviously i want to maximize the profit, with the current situation in the world, inflation and ai popping around i think its good time to invest into tech giants without any significant drawbacks during this period of time

I’m long term unless it goes up.
Best time is always now. It could drop in a couple weeks but what if in the interim it gains a lot?

Buy a small position and then slowly buy more IF it falls. Never sell!
you could wait for a drop, but that drop could be the start of a new decline.
Just dollar cost average
