๐ฅ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฒ? Welcome to the โprice vs. valueโ part of investing.
This week hasnโt been pretty, and itโs not just the US. China is down too (which matters for us because we have exposure there as well).
Whatโs driving much of this move is ๐ณ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฟ ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ฝ๐๐ : Big Tech is signaling major spending plans (data centers, chips, infrastructure). Markets love growthโฆ until they worry that it comes at the expense of ๐น๐ผ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐บ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ด๐ถ๐ป๐ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐น๐ฒ๐๐ ๐ณ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฒ ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐๐ต ๐ณ๐น๐ผ๐ in the short term.
Add a broad โrisk-offโ mood (stocks down, crypto down, metals correcting), and you get the classic cocktail: ๐๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ฎ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ + ๐ฑ๐ฒ-๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ธ๐ถ๐ป๐ด + ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐๐ฒ๐น๐น๐ถ๐ป๐ด.
My approach stays the same:
- ๐ ๐ฑ๐ผ๐ปโ๐ ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ฒ๐๐ ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐ฑ ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐๐. ๐ ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ฒ๐๐ ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐ฑโ๐ญ๐ฌ+ ๐๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐.
- Volatility is normal โ itโs the entry fee.
When prices drop fast, I focus on whether the business is breaking or just the price.
Thatโs why I used this dip to add to high-quality names at levels I like for the long run:
- bought $MSFT (Microsoft) around ~$400
- bought $AMZN (Amazon.com Inc) below ~$200
Could they go lower? Of course.
But long-term investing isnโt about buying the exact bottom. Itโs about building positions in great businesses when the market is nervous.
And this is also why ๐ด๐น๐ผ๐ฏ๐ฎ๐น ๐ฑ๐ถ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ถ๐ณ๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป matters: not just different asset classes, but different geographies. When fear hits one region, having exposure across regions can reduce portfolio-level stress over time.
Zoom out: thatโs where compounding actually shows up.

I can coincide in this sense that price is going down while fundamentals are strong and economy is going well. This year is having extreme volatility. I would wait to the end of the earnings season (which could be marked by Nvidia's earnings) to analyze things carefully... Show More
hi @FranciscoOrtiz13 , I apologize for the off-topic question: Iโd like to know if itโs possible to open an eToro account for tax residents in Georgia (the Caucasian nation, not the US state), or to maintain access to oneโs own account once relocated to Georgia? Iโve read conflicting information about... Show More
