FWIW my company ditched Datadog in favor of New Relic. NEWR is only down 4% so far this year. That said, we use MongoDB...

Software is just getting smashed. Market went too long without handing out a lesson in valuation for large caps. I think we would have been better off if the market had dipped 10% last summer and stayed there for a quarter. Instead you were punished for not being reckless. But then again small cap no profits did correct and young investors averaged down on the same garbage until they were broke.

I saw an article today that was running the historical correlation between the first five days of the trading year vs annual performance. Dammit we are doomed already lol. I do find that stuff entertaining. If only it were that simple we could go long or short and win every year.

An article trending on SA shows the top 50 growth stocks. 33 of 50 were down 8% or more for 2022 and not sure if that included yesterday. That's a rough start considering many of them didn't have a happy ending to 2021 either.

My stodgy old large cap investments are doing just fine comparative to other areas of the market.
My thesis this year - QUALITY
Increase share count in my Mid/large cap investments that have clean balance sheets, Quality ratings, positive revenue, positive cash flow, moderate dividend payout ratios. Overweight / Underweight those companies appropriately dependent upon what the phase of the full business cycle the markets are experiencing. ----- But then again, that's been my thesis for decades. Wash, Rinse, Repeat. Works for me, I'm still Standing!! I'll let the young bucks play the speculative game in 2022,

“It’s different this time.” Lenders and investors invariably depart from time-honored disciplines when cycles move to extremes, out of a belief that current conditions are different from those that prevailed in the past, when those disciplines were appropriate. And just as invariably, they’re shown that cycles repeat and nothing really changes.- Howard Marks

I always do a flight to safety any year the market makes me nervous. Heck I have too much cash most all the time. It's likely I am early and miss some of the fun, but I live to fight another day.
As I oft mention I watch a lot of youtube financial channels. It's been so painful watching content providers make literally $500K (or even a million) to lead the kids off a cliff with speculative plays. You couldn't lose in 2020 and they gave it all back starting about 9 months ago. Averaging down on trash with their last investment dollars, or worse yet they even borrowed some money. If they were lucky they bought some F, but mostly just a port of junk that won';t sniff a profit for years if ever, and diluting the followers into oblivion. And I act like this scam is new. It isn't.

I Look at these YOLO, FOMO, (Had to ask my youngest nephew what the acronyms meant) Diamond Hands comments I occasionally come across , and mostly just shake my head. Thank the Lord with the help of our collective family we have both my nephews started on the right path with savings, investing, use of a credit card, balancing of a check book etc...
As a family we started early teaching them. Even their Mimi (Grandmother) got involved and helped guide them to set a solid footing. I feel sometimes for some of these young kids that just don't have that level of support. Sometimes it does indeed take a village!!.

Most of the content providers faded a way last year but many remain hyping crap that will mostly be BK in 24 months or less.(01-08-2022, 10:03 AM)fenders53 Wrote: As I oft mention I watch a lot of youtube financial channels.
