I met a former investment banker once. He told me that the greatest asset is time, and it is important to hold long positions to make money. This is by far the best way to invest, and in unstable markets, you should just ride everything out, but sometimes, I will be buying stocks/ETF's etc. that I will only be holding for short term, so I can still make money when the market is rough. 

 

 

​​Here's what's going on (portfolio and updates):​​

​

Right now, I am trying to diversify (spread out) my investments. I will be using a formula I created to analyze stocks, and I will be selecting the strongest stock or stocks from each financial sector (section of the economy) to invest in. My investments sector by sector are below. 

​

Energy: 

So far in energy, I am invested in First Solar (FSLR). According to a bunch of my research, solar power is one of the best energy sources for the future, so I decided to buy a solar power stock. Out of 10 of the largest solar power companies I analyzed, First Solar was the best stock to buy according to my formula. I bought it on 8/26/25 at $196.71 a share. 

​

​

Materials:

So far in materials, I am invested in Vale (VALE). Vale is a company based in South America, and it mines metals. Vale has super high earnings per share (the company's profits divided across each of the shares) considering how low its share price is. This is shown through the really low P/E (price to earnings) ratio, which is used to show how overvalued or undervalued a stock is, and Vale is undervalued. I bought it on 8/26/25 at $10.18 a share.

​

 

Industrials:
So far in industrials, I am invested in UPS (UPS). UPS delivers packages, and just like Vale, it has really high earnings per share for its stock price. I bought UPS on 8/26/25 at $87.40

Consumer discretionary: 

I'm not invested in any consumer discretionary stocks right now because a lot of them are very overvalued.
