Pedro Maldini - Health&Wealth Invester

34, Dad. UK. This month I’ve decided to start over. For a long time I’ve struggled with my mental health and felt like I’ve been drifting through life instead of living it. I’m tired of watching the years pass without becoming the person I know I can be. I grew up in a working-class area where nobody talked about investing or building wealth. We were never taught about money and I spent years thinking it just wasn’t for people like me. Right now I’m clearing the last of my debt. Once that’s done I’m going all in on investing, improving my health and building a better future for me and my family. The portfolio below is where I started at the beginning of June. First month is down but it seems pretty normal as June looks like it was hard for everyone. Is that the same for you? I’m also trying to build real connections on here. I’ll follow back and reply to every comment because I don’t really have people around me who are into this and I’d genuinely like to learn from others and connect with people on a similar path.

Interesting to see how concentrated the market has become. The biggest companies today are incredible businesses, but when a handful of stocks drive the majority of returns, does diversification actually mean what it used to? Makes me think about ETFs too. Are broad index funds still the best long-term approach, or could this concentration become a bigger risk in the future?

BREAKING: The top 10 US stocks now account for 43% of the S&P 500’s market cap, near the highest on record. This percentage has been at or above 40% for the last 12 months. Over the last 10 years, the top 10's weighting in the S&P 500 has more than DOUBLED. At the same time, the proportion of the 250 smallest companies has halved, to ~7%, the lowest since at least 2014. To put this differently, the top 10 now account for more than 6 times the market cap of the smallest 250 firms in the S&P 500 index. A handful of stocks continue to effectively drive the entire market.

@unusual_whales Somewhere Mark Zuckerberg is adding “don’t accidentally contaminate the water” to the next company meeting agenda 😂 All joking aside.. all I see is bad news about $META might need to rethink my investment strategy. Get the finger out Zuckerberg.

BREAKING: Deadly bacteria found in major US city's water system traced to Mark Zuckerberg's $800 million, $META, data center, per TechRadar

Everyone talks about AI chips… But what about the memory needed to actually store all that AI data? $SNDK is one I’m watching today. The chip sector has had a rough ride recently, but AI demand isn’t disappearing. Are memory stocks the next part of the AI story? Or could both boom 👀

@NoLimitGains The stock market has a way of making you feel like a genius or an idiot depending on what you compare yourself against 😂 Definitely learning that being “down less” doesn’t always mean you’re winning.

If your stock is down 20% in the last 12 months while the S&P is up 20%, you are not down 20%. You are down 40%. Only a handful of people understand this.

If everyone agrees the system isn’t fit for purpose… who exactly designed it? 🤔 At the same time, there’s no denying some people do manipulate systems when they can. The challenge is creating a system that supports the people who genuinely need help while stopping abuse without making everyone feel like a criminal.

🚨 NEW: PIP is set to undergo major reform after a Government review found it's not fit for purpose It found assessments can be so "dehumanising" that they drive some claimants out of work and having a social life

@QC_Capitals I’m going with $NBIS today. Feels like it has more momentum at the minute, but knowing my luck I’ve just guaranteed $SNDK a 10% day 😂

Which stock performs better TODAY? $SNDK or $NBIS

@depak_7 @DanielSmidstrup You’ve got another in me bud. Love AI content. Keep it going 😀

@DanielSmidstrup 8k follower is insane , me with 81 hard earned followers😂

Day 100! 🤯 100 days. 34,000+ posts & replies. 5+ hours most days. We won't hit 10k today, and that's okay. What a journey it's been. One last push!

@STOR_Institute Early days for me lol it’s not really relevant. Just trying to keep up with the market.

@PedroInvests92 Everybody loves greens 🥬

Morning folks.. Nice and green to start today! 📈📈📈 May it continue. Hope everyone is doing well ! ☕️💻
