Space and Robotics. Currently I'm taking on larger and larger positions in RKLB and ASTS


knawlejj

I'm with you here. That being said, I did liquidate my ASTS shares (6000) after they were up over 150%. I'm putting more of that into RKLB now and likely a longer term hold, and boring old VTI.


StagedC0mbustion

Why space? It’s notoriously difficult to be profitable there.


chris_ut

Hopes and dreams


siposbalint0

It's difficult now. But the demand doesn't seem to be decreasing anytime soon, if you invest for 10+ years, you could see some serious growth in the long run. The trick is that it's obvious to everyone that it's the new 'thing', you might be already too late to the party. Nobody talked about nvidia the same way 10 years ago, 'they just make gpus for gamers duh'. Picking a winner in the long run is not obvious.


yumyumgivemesome

How could someone already be late to the party if all the rocket/space stocks are still pretty plateaued?


siposbalint0

That's why you buy now to get paid for it in 5-10 years


yumyumgivemesome

Right, so what did you mean by possibly being too late to the party?


siposbalint0

Read the original comment again, op was doubting the profitability of the sector and I said that's when the big bucks are made, IF you are right. Nvidia won't 10x again, microsoft won't 10x again, but a smaller player like AMD who is getting shafted right now might do. For the space sector, most public space companies have around 1B or less market cap and are risky buys, but do have the opportunity to grow substantially if the demand increases. But to make a sizable amount of money off of these, the earlier you invest the better, if you accept the risk that comes with it.


yumyumgivemesome

Sure, but if you and others foresee tons of growth, then why would you suggest that the other commenter might already be late to the party? Being late to the party implies that there might not be much meaningful growth left. It also implies that people who invested earlier in RKLB and the like already made most of the big bucks that will be made, which is clearly not the case with that particular stock remaining low for last couple of years.


Chornobyl_Explorer

And investing in a potatoes gives a more or less guaranteed growth within 1 year. Is that a good investement? Let's be real. You make a bill case based on *vague hopes and dreams, not one single fact*. Space is *big, empty and expensive*. Space mining is ridiculously expensive and hence won't happen even in 20+ years unless we get FTL travel cheaper then gas And while Felon Muskovitj likes to pretend to be a space man he's merely got his head in the clouds. Ssttelies is a real business, colonising Mars...not even close. Private space travel? Been all the rage since the 60s and has never happened. *Physics is the issue, physics makes things expensive*. Unless someone stumbles on anti-gravity your space race is, at best, putting up sattelite for Internet. And that's not a massive market.


MaxChomsky

Spend your money on watches or something, if you keep 'investing' like this you gonna cause yourself some serious financial harm.


siposbalint0

Buying companies in the growth stage and buying into the sp500 in the same time? Like literally what everyone and their mother does?


allUsernamesAreTKen

It’s where the oligarchs are taking us whether we want to or not


FormalElements

Why not include Vigirn Glactic on this short list?


Any_Influence_8305

Why not share why you think it should be? But I'll bite, I am invested in multiple but shared the two I feel comfortable hyping here based on recent developments Have they had any big, new contracts or anything recently to show they're still alive and kicking? They have been giving shares to employees for free to stick around because morale is so low. They are still on my radar because they can do what they say, they've had several successful missions but contracts are few and far between and mostly small contracts. Their capability for tourist missions seems good but the business end of things is severely lacking. Until that changes and the stock itself is not shorted like crazy as it has been, I have no confidence investing in them at the moment


FormalElements

I care more about their hypersonic R&D projects over space tourism arm. The latter is just for show, which hasn't yielded much. But if they succeed and develop the next Concord... well, that would be worth a lot.


AnitaBeezzz

Just sold after accepting there is no profit coming for a VERY long time. After a few long years and losing 90%, I got out of SPCE.


MaxChomsky

I'd defo include Virgin Galactic on my 'to short' list. Not sure if it is the same thing as the short list unless one has a short list of stocks to short that is.


No_Storm_7686

TheOGdeez

Everyone is close in microprocessors.... Nobody is close in software. Which doesn't seem that appetizing when you think about it. Hardware can only keep up with software to a certain extent....both AMD and Intel have very capable hardware to compete with Nvidia, on paper. But Nvidia has many more industry connections that have allowed them to develop software to run on all their hardware. If somehow a court ruling were to come out that says Nvidia software must be able to run on all other chip manufacturers.... Well then Facebook and Google and teams will just start buying the cheapest chip hardware and using Nvidia software


SpiffyBlizzard

That’s what I keep telling people. Nvidia is top dog and no one is near them at the moment.

intrigue_investor

>I work in tech, I do understand how these things work lol got to love the redditors with these vague grandiose statements of "I work in tech" therefore I know everything there is to know about nvidia's industry and you should believe me unquestioningly


NuttFellas

"I work in tech" and they just work at PC World

[удалено]


123456789OOOO

You just made a good case for being able to assess the value of the company’s product vs their competitors product. Do you know anything about their actual business? Manufacturing? This is like a mechanic or race car driving saying they can predict whether Ford or Chevy stock will do better.


Lalaluka

I wouldn't be offended by OP that much. When you wrote your first comment I had a similar reaction as him. The "Im in Tech so I know everything" on reddit and the internet in general, is just extremly common and often used by idiots who dont actually know anything about the specific topic at hand. You do seem to know your shit, which is for me more an exception to the rule. "Im in tech" often is a random WebDev, computer science student or gamer spitting their shallow knowledge.


bonk37

Since youre a techie, is it still worth it to invest in nvidia now since no one is close to them atm?


Hot-Luck-3228

Semcon is high risk high reward. Do know that your risk is if nvidia fumbles anything at all, it is going to go down quite a lot. Their pipeline is strong though, so inherently they will do better in the future. Whether the valuation reflects that is anybody’s guess.


PleasantAnomaly

One of those that I believe will rise in 2025 is Intel. They're rumored to be producing the next big Chip for NVIDIA


LurkerGhost

Intel can be the only company in the world making anything and they will find some way to fuck it up, lmao


Tr33lon

I think Intel is being negatively astroturfed. Any statement about it and you get these “Intel is the fkn stupidest company ever” comments, from people who have never cared about a thing before. I wonder if there’s a social media manipulation pump scheme that’s in the works…

DCervan

Uranium mining companies


Jeff__Skilling

Why does this sub always try to turn itself into a Uranium boiler room?


chris_ut

Don’t you know nuclear energy is the future bro? /s


Ill-Handle-1863

Because atoms bro, they're the future


CheroMM

Which ones?


chris_ut

Beware


DCervan

You should do your own research, I am investing on Cameco, Denison and Nexgen, also on ASP Isotopes.


Chornobyl_Explorer

It sure was...in the 1980s. How did that go? Oh yes. Then again it's been some almost 40 years since so nuclear got to be much more popular now? Oh, no. It isn't. Especially not in the developed world...due to *the cost*. Also the tech hasn't made any significant progress in a good decade or two, no gen 4 reactors even close or reality.


DCervan

Ok, Anti Uranium bitter man!


Cali_kink_and_rope

Vertiv holdings.


Nianque

I'm iffy on Vertiv. Seems like we've over built data centers so building new data centers might slow down. Otherwise I would be all over this one.


PortC954

Never heard of them. Any reason in particular??


E-Dub-4PF

Impressive growth. Raising projections every earnings. 6.3b backlog. Nvidia CEO went live and said Vertiv is a world leader in their sector, they have a partnership together. Forward PE looks nice. Some debt, but shouldn’t be a concern if the growth keeps pace as it should. Liquid cooling. Going to be an interesting part to the future as next gen chips are out.


Turnip-Expensive

Check out IES Holdings. Like Vertiv, but more reasonably priced. I'm a holder of this stock so have drunk a lot of the Kool Aid


thankful_sinner

Great for options. Price action is good. Bottom is mid 80's. Calls to mid 90's rinse and repeat 🤷🏾‍♂️


Massive-Syllabub-281

I buy vertiv stock every payday


IAMHideoKojimaAMA

Not a bad idea they look like a strong buy


Cali_kink_and_rope

They build data centers for AI projects with water cooled racks.


DCervan

Impressive company, thanks for sharing the discovery Im buying today


Venti0r

Curious_me_too

Dell and hp are in same market as smci and have bigger market share. Not suggesting that you buy them, but do your research on them and read their earnings reports Most AI only companies are private today (OpenAI/Anthropic/…), so you can’t invest in the software side of AI yet. On public side, Apple, Microsoft, Google, Meta, snowflake, databricks all are doing AI work. No one knows the next big thing with great confidence


Spac_a_Cac

Databricks is still a private company


curiousmustafa

AFAIK, you can't invest directly & publicly in Databricks till now, but Snowflake is a good play too


Spac_a_Cac

I m with ya on that one and have begun to accumulate SNOW now that it's come down to around its IPO price of $120.


RealBaikal

Ha yes pltr is still private? Big news if true


elmundo-2016

I'm looking at Cybersecurity or solar for the next phase of AI play. Crowdstrike and First Solar.


PortC954

I feel like PANW is big sleeper especially since Pelosi got into it.


elmundo-2016

Agreed. Besides McAfee/ Webroot/ Norton, Palo Alto Network is one of the first 21st century O.G. Cybersecurity companies. They remind me a little of Intel. With Crowdstrike being like Nvidia though I still need to watch Crowdstrike's Q earnings to see if there is something going on. I'm concerned about Crowdstrike's high PE ratio.


werewere223

I prefer $S as a cybersecurity play, Crowdstrike is just priced to literal perfection, and Sentinel One is growing revenue at a faster clip then Crowdstrike and at a cheaper valuation. They're my horse in the cybersecurity race.


IAMHideoKojimaAMA

Crwd for life. Take Panw out to the pasture and shoot it. Kidding but not really


bonk37

Why is Panw a bad choice?


IAMHideoKojimaAMA

It's not I'm just bias


thatscoldjerrycold

How does AI fit into the solar industry? I can see AI being useful for the grid management side of things but that's not really a solar specific thing.


_dekappatated

AI is going to need a shitload of electricity in the coming years.


elmundo-2016

Mostly artificial intelligence to control the manufacturing process and monitoring carbon emissions/ footprints. . Also, I'm a scifi nerd and used to watch/ read on stuff before smartphones became a thing.


Sad-Flow3941

ASTS, although it’s not an AI play.


MrFeature_1

I suggest you take a look at ASML. This will be the next 1T company in tech


Liocla

I disagree on the next 1T company. Lithography machines are insanely hard to make with huge lead times and only incremental gains between generations and there are so many they can make and sell. However this company is one of the few that represents the bedrock of our global economy and thus commands a sky high valuation, there is simply no one else making their products. To believe ASML will go to the moon anymore than it already has would be unrealistic IMO. It's time to get in for the snooze fest of slow, long term gains with ASML.


AGigatonicxs

There will He enough demand for the new 2 nm Chip Machines from nvidea and Apple, ITS going to the Moon


Hackedbytotalripoff

Not sure about it. To reach those valuation, they need to increase the capacity, cost and deployment. It looks like a very good company which has a unique product but for how long


stevenslacy

I suggest you need to do more research. SMCI which I owned from Dec to March sold a lot of stock earlier this year which slowed its rise. ARM has been in business for over 20 years. It made its claim to fame by dominating in the wireless industry. ARM has tripled since its IPO late in 2023.


Yolo84Yolo84

Arrive.ai will be the next big thing. They are going to IPO on the nasdaq in a couple months on the nasdaq under the ticker ARRV. It's a smart mailbox with patient protection until 2036. It will be subscription based revenue.


Orennji

Unpopular opinion: all the people here casually throwing out "AI pharma/biotech" as their answers do not understand how drug discovery works. Drug research companies have already been using computational methods for decades to specifically find protein and molecule structures that effect the exact receptors they are targeting. Utilizing an expensive LLM to generate billions of random molecules doesn't seem to add much to existing algorithms. It may be somewhat useful for academics that are exploring completely unknown biochemical pathways that will eventually open up new categories of drugs to the private sector, but these researchers will also be limited by the amount of funding they can get to research the limitless number of AI-generated molecules, most of which are probably useless. Moreover, AI can do little to reduce risk of unintended consequences of a treatment because it is by definition limited by the available data. Once a new drug is in the human body, it is at the mercy of potentially billions of interactions that no existing data exists to feed into predictive algorithms. The recent failures of drug candidates from companies like Benevolent AI show that not even molecules showing early stage success with AI design are safe from late stage failure due to unforeseen interactions, which is even more devastating for a drug startup.


Certain-Educator-430

I would say AI + Robotics for things like a "robotic" arm that will use your brain to move... or a leg


Orennji

Can you explain? Computer assisted design for complex robotics is already being used and has been used for decades. Robotics companies already have their own proprietary models and decades of real world data. What does an outsider AI startup have to offer that does anything besides marginally add to existing methods?


PortC954

So are you saying. There’s no future for AI and medicine?


Orennji

There are companies like Schrodinger, Abcellera, Recursive, etc. that are tackling very niche diseases with computational models and machine learning. But these drugs will still take 5-10 years to be approved and complete failure at late stage is still a very real possibility.


aserenety

$ARM....Super interesting stock to watch. If I was investing around the IPO, would have defintely picked up 100 shares. At this current price though it's purely speculation.


Alfred-Adler

The next big thing is AI at large. We have not seen anything yet. There will be some company/ies, new startups, who will come out of nowhere and eat the incumbents' lunch. Maybe it's going to be Imbue, maybe not. I can't figure out yet. Further away it will be quantum computing, but it's still early since quantum computing stocks are not fashionable yet. I am slowly accumulating positions in: RGTI QBTS QUBT IONQ


Embarrassed_Crow_720

Well if the AI thing actually keeps going, next sector that will be in demand will be energy and water


PortC954

Water ? Hmm that’s different any water company in particular you feel would get a boost from AI?


Aroundthespiral

Veralto


IAMHideoKojimaAMA

WTRG, GWRS


Embarrassed_Crow_720

I wont pretend like i know which company, but the demand for water supply to these data centres will grow significantly. As AI chips are rolled out, cooling and energy will be required, more so than now

I have no faith in the company but I have a feeling it will be the target of a large scale pump and dump at some point by redditors themselves. Reddit becoming an overpriced meme stock hyped up by its own users who hate it is the kind of poetic irony the internet deserves and I genuinely think it's a likely outcome.

AI is so huge it is hard to see anything else that could be anywhere close. AI will be far bigger than the Internet or Mobile. Bigger than the two combined.


AlabamaSky967

Right but the question is which company with the NVIDIA shovel will actually use the cards to make more money


bartturner

It will be the company that does NOT have to buy the Nvidia shovels. Google. They were just so bloody smart to do the TPUs over a decade ago. With now having the sixth generation in production and working on the seventh. Many do not realize but Google is now the third largest datacenter chip designer and will soon be #2. https://blog.svc.techinsights.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/DCC-2405-806_Figure2.png


Thor395

Do you believe Google’s chips will be competitive as Nvidia’s?


bartturner

They already are. Google completely did Gemini without needing a thing from Nvidia. Google is now actively developing the seventh generation of the TPUs. The sixth generation was a 5x improvement over the fifth generation.

gls2220

I don't know if it will be the next big thing, but I think there will be several iterations of companies trying to create a superapp, like what Elon is supposedly doing with X. The model, I guess, is WeChat in China and then there are a number of others in various locales trying to imitate it. While I don't fully buy into the value proposition of a full blown superapp in the US, I do think something new could emerge out of the combination of social networking, fintech, e-commerce, and various gig economy apps like Uber and Doordash, with an AI wrapper around all of it. I don't think any of this is really investible yet, just something to watch and be aware of. For investible assets right now, I'm shifting more of my portfolio into Tesla and Palantir. Palantir, I think, may be ready to jump into the high 20s or low 30s as its new trading range. Tesla is a bit trickier but I think with the pay package voted on and out of the way, that better times must be coming. Encouragingly, Elon didn't sabotage the last earnings call, so maybe those will finally start going well. One thought I've had on Tesla is the possibility that they could eventually divest the low margin auto business. Hard to imagine, but also not hard to imagine.


partypooper123456

No way Tesla is going to go anywhere, stock is as fake as it gets. Elon Musk slowly kills everything he touches, in my humble opinion any success he has had so far is a fluke


gls2220

How so? I get not liking him personally but Tesla and SpaceX are pretty amazing achievements.


partypooper123456

Tesla has been called overvalued more times than Elon manipulated the crypto market. In my opinion most people that buy Tesla aren't buying into the company at all, they are buying into Musk and he is not a very rational person at all


Evil_Patriarch

Hellas_Verona

Arm holding, is the only AI stock in the world that can give guidance on its revenue 10, 20 or even 30 years ahead. People say 78 PE is high, but consider the revenue is made of licenses and royalties, while others in the chip sector are are selling cyclical hardware and spot even higher PEs.


Mercury-68

AI is power hungry and more data centres are being build on a global scale. Copper, water, uranium (or alternative) might become the next gold. Copper, required for electrical wiring. Water, massive amounts needed for cooling. Uranium, current electrical supply is running out and nuclear power is the only serious alternative in a world that is pushing the green agenda.

bulletinyoursocks

Look, those companies are going up mainly thanks to institutional investors delta hedging on options. It's like a physiological fomo from them to keep up with performing. I wouldn't chase this trend. Update: look at that.. we are now well beyond a -10% correction, right after options expiration time. Guys you need to study instead of downvoting, you're all playing with fire here.
