Aloha Investors,
It’s been a very interesting market since I last posted about what stocks I bought. The Dow is up 0.08%, S&P 500 up 0.25%, and Nasdaq up 0.95% for today. This week I started to read up on new technology that might be a good investment. I’m a big fan of technology and how it can improve the way we live and work. I was looking into ChatGPT which is part of OpenAI. Unfortunately OpenAI isn’t a publicly traded company, so I decided to do research and found that Microsoft is in a partnership with OpenAI. There are many possibilities with this new technology which is why I will be buying more Microsoft this year.
If you haven’t noticed, I’m also a big fan of Apple. I have a total of 783 shares of apple counting today. I believe that Apple will be a company that lasts over 30+ years and that no matter what Apple’s loyal customers will always buy their products. My goal is to get at least 1,000 shares of Apple before they release the Apple Car which is projected to launch in 2026.
