When my X account was growing, I would answer EVERY comment I received without fail
I loved being reliable in that way. But as my account has scaled, it's become *impossible* to keep up with the volume.
Forgive me if this sounds egotistical but there is simply not enough Rould to go around 😂
So I apologize to anyone who used to get consistent responses from me. I will always try to answer as many as possible! But priority for thoughtful responses will of course go to subscribers.
I also have a lot of people with notifications on for my replies who don't need to bothered with me saying "thank you" or "yes" to simple questions. I aim to keep my signal high.
And I spend hours per day answering people now. I almost never scroll the For You feed because I spend almost all my X time responding to requests! But it's all good. I don't just love it, I am highly addicted to it 🤣
Thank you everyone again for the support 🤝 I am excited for the week ahead after a nice long weekend😎

@aleabitoreddit Could you image if anyone but Trump was in the White House now, how further behind we would be?

Who could have thought China was holding all the cards over humanoid mass production?
Really if America sees a future in $TSLA or Figure robotics programs.
Maybe it’s time to start pouring more funding sovereign rare earths supply chains.
Whatever we’re doing now isnt enough.

🚨 Time to come clean with my new long term position: Added $ONDS near the lows on Friday and already up 15% 🤣 Was only fair to alert my subs first 😆 Sold off my old $CRM position to fund the move. Was flat after 5 years 🤮

This will probably go down as one of my best posts
$RKLB today: $105
$IONQ today: $49
I had entered both in single digits with small allocation. Then decided when I made this post that it was time to average up to large size
Now, they are my 2 largest holdings 😁
Dr J Rould@jrouldz
Picked up more $RKLB at $16.96 Picked up more $IONQ at $23.22

A reflection on swing trading vs long term investing ✍️
Most of my investment career has been built around long term hold. After years of watching every stock I ever sold skyrocket in value over time, I eventually learned to just stop selling
But over the past few years I got a lot more into swing trading as I became a more active investor. I've had some losses of course, but the winners have far exceeded the losers
Upon closer examination of a lot of these hits though, I am still left wondering if long term hold would have been the better move (and without the added stress of trying to time it!)
Examples:
In 2024 I bought $RKLB shares and calls. I sold the calls a few months later for >500% returns. Awesome, but the shares I bought at that time (which I am still holding) are up 20x already... Had I have gone 100% shares for long term hold, that would have paid better.
$ASTS I bought calls around $20, and sold around $40 for a 230% gain. Had I have gone all in common shares and held through now, those shares would be up 270%
$HOOD I bought calls and shares at just ~15 per share, and sold the calls for 300% gains a few months later. But my small bag of shares are up more like 400% by now
$AMD I managed to miraculously time the bottom in April 2025 and picked up calls around $80 per shares. I sold for 300% gains a few months later at $130 per share, thinking I was so smart. And of course now, common shares purchased at $80 would be up even more than 300%
Sometimes, I do get the timing really well. $EOSE for example I had a 300%+ swing trade last year, and sold before the crash back down to Earth. Similar story on $NIO and others.
My point is, if you can get the timing right, you can have awesome gains in a short time with options and swing trades.
But long term buy+hold, especially if you choose winning companies, is way less stressful, and often better returns as well for those who are patient 😅
I should mention though, that I also genuinely love swing trading. So expect plenty more swing trades to come. I plan to keep getting better at it too 😆

@Gubloinvestor $1m sales last year though. It’ll really 33x this year?
