Over the years I've had a pretty decent intuition about a lot of things. I'm a complete novice when it comes to stocks, only started getting into it like a few months ago at 24, so probably behind most folks when it comes to this. My investment strategy is pretty much buy big tech, buy low, sell high. Got really luck by starting at the “bottom” of the tech market so I saw huge gains, now I'm hooked on the market.
But the more I learned, the more I think that I actually made a really risky decision because nothing is really certain…but I still feel intuitively that beating the market isn't that hard if you only buy when the market overreacts, and, tech seems to me to be an industry that only has massive upward trajectory going forward because the nature of our reality is going to change with AI, genetic engineering, etc. My gamble is that the next 10-20 years will see a fundamental shift in human knowledge, technology, and understanding like the first renaissance.
Now…again I know I'm an idiot, but one thing I've picked up on is that reddit is filled with tons of really smart people. It's also filled with idiots, but when it comes to really specific niche knowledge the best honestly comes from obscure reddit posts or actual irl connections with important people. You learn jackshit from most genpop websites and social media, mostly people just trying to sell you stuff.
So, do you think r/stock beats the market?
