Investors, which company in your portfolio do you understand its business best?

Each of us probably has a stock that we're really interested in, enjoy, and have gone deep into. For me, it's probably $GOOG, $ASML and $NVO - companies I've studied a lot and have a larger position in.

There will be a lot of interesting companies reporting results next week, plus high volatility. I will definitely be interested in the results of $BAC, $ASML, $TSM and $NFLX.

Which companies will you be interested in?

The S&P 500 ($^GSPC) is up -10% year-to-date, while $BRK-B stock is already up more than 14%. The current negative sentiment hasn't touched this company much, which is amazing. I'm still invested in the S&P 500, but I'm thinking of buying $BRK-B quietly at a lower price .

What's your take on $BRK-B?

Recently, Chinese stocks have also plunged because of Trump. Yesterday they were up, but even so, over the last month, for example, $BABAhas lost over 20%, $NIO about 25% and $JD about 13%. I'm not currently buying much Chinese stocks, but I still have $BY6.F on my watchlist , which I would like to buy at a lower price.

Are you buying Chinese stocks now or do you have some on...

There may be too much going on lately and crazy Trump is moving stocks back and forth. In the beginning, stocks were rising and it looked like Trump would help US companies and the markets would rise, but now it is exactly the opposite. Personally I think Trump doesn't want to be seen as the president that made stocks fall and hopefully next year will be better.

Will anyone be buying $NVDAstock again ?

The stock has skyrocketed in the past year and a lot of investors have made good money on this stock. But so far this year, it's lost over 29%, and I think the valuation is getting interesting again. I've bought $AMDso far , but $NVDA is already looking tempting too.

Bitcoin fell below $80,000 yesterday and has already lost 17% since the beginning of this year. I think this creates quite an interesting opportunity at the moment, so I'll definitely be overbought today.

Mistakes in investing are not a very popular topic, but they belong to it and one can learn a lot from them. My main mistakes were, for example, that I started investing according to analysts or youtubers and chose stocks mainly according to their past growth.

What mistakes did you make in the beginning or during the investing process?

We all know it was mostly tech stocks that fell yesterday, but I was very surprised by the drop in $BAC and $JPM. Bank of America stock was down more than 11% yesterday. I have $BAC in my portfolio and I'm happy, but I may overbuy now after the drop.

Will anyone be overbuying bank stocks after the drop too?

Shares of $TSLA were down 10% in aftermarket trading yesterday. This was likely due to a drop in Tesla vehicle deliveries and the introduction of new tariffs. I'll be overbought other stocks today, but if the price drops again to $220, I'd still buy.

Will anyone be overbought on $TSLAstock today , or will you focus on other titles?

Are you inspired by Warren Buffett and his investing?

He's one of the best investors and it's definitely good to keep track of what he's doing and what stocks he's bought or sold on a regular basis. For example, I was inspired by investing in $AAPL, so I bought the stock a few years ago and am currently making a nice profit on it (it was also the first stock I bought).

Shares of $JNJ fell 4% today after a US judge rejected Johnson & Johnson's proposal to settle tens of thousands of lawsuits for $10 billion. I don't have $JNJ stock in my portfolio and I certainly won't be buying it, because its growth is lousy and the business isn't doing very well either.

Does it make sense for anyone else to invest in $JNJ?

That Google is sinking pretty good. On Friday, the stock was down 4% and the price was down to $156. That's an 18% drop this year alone, but fortunately the fundamentals haven't changed, which I see as a great opportunity, so I'll be overbought.

What do you think of the current valuation of $GOOG? Are you overbought?

Do you address moral considerations and ethics when investing in stocks?

Personally, I more or less don't address that when investing because every company does something wrong, and I couldn't invest anywhere with that attitude. On the one hand, I understand that it's not ideal and that it's not pretty, but on the other hand, I don't mind investing in companies like $MO or $LMT...

What do you think about $VOW3.DEstock ?

Volkswagen has been underperforming for some time now - results have been poor and the stock was down significantly last year, by about 20%. This year, however, the stock is already up 11%. I have $P911.DEin my portfolio, but I don't and won't invest in $VOW3.DE.
