Hello, savvy investors!

Halfway through 2024, letā€™s see which stocks are shining šŸŒŸ and which are dimming šŸ”».

Retail Investors Are Winning: Retail investors are beating the S&P 500 and close behind the Nasdaq.

With the S&P 500 up 15.53% and the Nasdaq up 18.48% year-to-date, it's a strong year.

The Magnificent Seven: Tech giantsā€”Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, Alphabet, Meta, Tesla, and Amazonā€”are leading the charge.

If these stars dim in the second half, retail investors might feel it more than the market.

Tesla: Love It or Hate It: Despite a 26.5% drop this year, Tesla remains the top holding. Itā€™s like that friend whoā€™s always late but you canā€™t help but love. Without Teslaā€™s drag, portfolios would be higher. Retail investors remain hopeful.

Winners and Losers: Nvidiaā€™s up 160%, Metaā€™s up 40%, and GameStopā€™s up 41%, balancing Teslaā€™s fall. Robinhood users have a knack for picking winners.

Looking Ahead: Investors are betting on electric vehicles, AI, and Big Tech. Theyā€™re in it for the long haul, practicing buy-and-hold like pros.
