  • HONDA N-ONE : “Citigroup strategists point out that now is the time to determine profits for the biggest stocks”
    “According to BofA, the semiconductor bull market is not over yet, and there is a possibility that it will continue until mid-2026 due to AI momentum.”
    Which one is it
    these guys are really sly aren't they
    I'm changing my opinion from time to time

  • よろぴこ : Since the long-term trend line for semiconductors is upward, the way opinions are viewed changes depending on whether they are investors who mainly trade short-term or whether they are investors who mainly trade medium- to long-term in monthly increments. I was swayed and impatient, and trading wasn't the best.

  • 184084675 : I really don't know which way
    I'll do it at my own risk

  • 破滅 : At the end of the day, everyone only believes what they want to believe, so writing both arguments together is the best risk hedge. In a sense, it tells me the essence of investing (laughs)
