Comments:
Overall this month I wasn't very active in investments generally, most capital isn't invested in the market right now, simply I find it too hard to find good investments now, even the S&P 500 is a hard sell.
I expect to be putting capital back into the markets slowly over the next few months, as things start to calm down. All companies which I would invest in right now are heavily overvalued, Tesla doubling in market cap since November, Nvidia not lowering much yet, Apple, Google, Microsoft, and others all have boosted PE ratio's and actually these are companies where future earnings growth is already very hard.
For now I have some money in Chinese and Japanese stocks which are definitely more reasonably priced, and the companies have a more or less easy to predict next 2-3 years. 7-eleven I suspect will do well, and I bought it at around 17 times earnings. JD.com and Alibaba are not new.
Probably most interesting right now is Intel. This is more of a gambling type of investment for me, but I do see some similarities between Intel right now and Meta 2-3 years ago. Both are 65-70 % down from their previous highs. Meta fell since investors were worried about the new Metaverse possibly destroying the company.
Now intel is criticized for not pursuing AI? and investors believe this might kill the company? I think this is simply untrue. There are definitely some management problems, big investments yet to pay off, but there are also huge positives. Intel is still in 50% of all pc's and you will need a simple laptop anyway to interface with cloud AI. Secondly Intel is the only company right now with chip manufacturing capabilities outside of Taiwan, and is investing more and more into this. Thirdly the processors are great, I built 6-7 or so computers, and 60% of the time I turned to intel, some years AMD was better others Intel. Fourthly the price to earnings ratio is by far the lowest of all "chip" companies, I mean around 7-8 years compared to AMD's, Nvidia's 100 +?
Anyway, for now I will slowly be adding more of my capital into these companies ( you should be able to track it by simply looking at number of positions ). If you would like to easily track the performance of my investments, you can click on the Performance Page on the top.
