$NASA is an alternative to buying individual stocks in the space sector.

$FTC: ~5.0%
$VSAT: ~5.0%

Wins and losses are equally a part of investing. The net result is ALL that matters.
"If you haven't found that place in yourself, then it's very hard to accept losses. And if you cannot accept the negative consequences, you'll never succeed as a trader" - Tharp
"Most successful speculators have a success rate below 50%" - Tharp
The biggest indicator of a phony investor on X is that fact that they have to be right vs admitting their losses.
"Nvidia's Jensen Huang allegedly caught on camera being affectionate with Nvidia’s vice president of health care, according to The New York Times."
2 alleged affairs, one with a possible Chinese spy and one with a company VP.
I had my doubts...
$NVDA
I have doubts Jensen Huang survives this affair scandal as $NVDA CEO.
His judgment and trust will come under scrutiny and the board/company may be forced to act.
Uncertainty will likely pressure the stock in the short term.
I don't see long-term damage to the company/stock but the short term is anyone's guess.
What do you all think will happen?
Holding shares.

The point of investing is to end the year (or series of investments) with a net gain rather than trying to win every single trade.
Long-term profitability comes from managing risk, letting winners run and letting go of the ego-driven need to be "right" on individual positions.
Investors need to consider whether they could accept making profits by the end of the year even if the majority of their investments were losses. Most people reject this because the emotional need to be "right" overrides profitability.
Stop following the folks who want to be "right" on X and focus on the folks who are actually profitable, regardless of how many trades didn't work out.
Profitability is ALL that matters in the market.
Hint: very few are actually profitable on X

$GOOGL & $SPCX
Alphabet increased its holding by approximately 3.85 million shares during the third quarter, bringing its total to 555.0 million shares (up from 551.2 million shares at the end of the second quarter).
• The stake represents roughly 4.1% to 4.2% of SpaceX and accounts for approximately 95% of Alphabet's non-core investment portfolio.
• At a recent share price closing around $134.27, the market value of Alphabet's position is worth over $74 billion to $83.7 billion (fluctuating with SpaceX's post-IPO market volatility).
YouTube is now the most-watched TV distributor in America, and it’s pulling away, per WSJ.
YouTube’s share of all US TV viewing time has climbed to about 14%, up from roughly 9% at the end of 2023, per Nielsen data charted by The Wall Street Journal.
That puts it ahead of every traditional media giant, including Disney, NBCUniversal and Fox, and well ahead of Netflix at about 8%.
Sub sellers often get rocked in these market environments and severely underperform.
They often outperform the market during tech up-trends.
Know who you are following and the risks of their portfolio before you get caught naked with them!
What a ride for $ELF the past 6 months...
+141% from the low.
Holding shares
$CRWV is down another 30% since my sell. $43 😲
I went against my fundamentals with $CRWV and held after making some nice initial gains due to believing in a local firm with a masive backlog.
The stock may still work out but as I noted earlier, I sold the position - to protect against uncertainty.
I will place the funds elsewhere, at some point, focused on positive and growing fundamentals.
$SPCX is probably a good long term buy here on the recent sell off, $130s.
I am more impressed with Starlink every time I use it.
A $10T market cap means a 5x investment.
