It's called patience Grasshopper.  All four of those will run. We are sending some goons over to your house if you sell them down lol.
When you have time to, invest some on learning the 11 S&P sectors. Look back at their performance from one year to the next. It's why we diversify. It's a pretty special year when even 8 of them are up. UTEs and Health have been treading water for a year. It will be OK.
Take energy sector as an example. Best sector by far in 2021. You are a genius if you put half your port there. Of course you were a moron if you did it last year. All kidding aside it's a concept you need to grasp. Your investing will be less stressful. If it were possible to always be green, their would be a lot of fund managers being the SPY. There are practically zero over a ten year period.

I haven't researched it. Hadn't heard of it until you and Otter were discussing it last week. I am trying to not add too many more new names. We'll see how long that lasts. 
What I need is for tech to get hammered for real again, but this market is resilient.
Very small trades this morning. Added a few shares to DG-ARKF Sold a few SLV puts.

Oh gosh I wouldn't think of getting rid of my chips; darlings of my collection. NVIDIA is over in the ROTH. I was just noticing that I'm overweighted on them.
Good idea about learning the sectors. I've been intuitively diversifying; it's why I felt adding Starbucks was important because I didn't have any restaurant stocks, and why I will probably add Hasbro because I don't have anything like it.

Regarding TSM, and other stocks that get taxed in a tax deferred retirement account, not only getting taxed on say something like TSM dividend at 21% but then whether that divi is put back into TSM or something else but to know that reinvestment will be taxed as ordinary income when withdrawals begin really gets me....I go CRAZY
What happens if I'm in a higher tax bracket? I'll be spinning in circles..

I also took a new position in PXD thanks to the secondary at $153
I needed to add another name in the sector to go along with CVX and EOG
now the only other sector I'm underweight in is leisure
Dude I am a charter member of ENPH. I made a few hundred a month the past year selling short puts while it ran. I have a few short puts that are WAY in the money after this bloodbath. I can only roll forward so much before I own $140 shares. I said here many times I was good with adding a real position starting at $125. If I am honest I need ENPH to head back to $120ish to be back to even. I wasn;t aggressive enough when it was truly cheap. I'll add shares to my growthy port in the meantime.
Yeah yeah. What ever floats your boat lol
I am very good with owning ENPH long-term. How happy I am in the end very much depends on the entry. We'll see where the bottom is soon enough.
Well me too. Got in at $108.90
This will be a big winner for years to come. You have to add at some point, so why not today. I don't worry about making a few $ here and there . I'm in to win it lol
Are we having fun today

About the time you wish half your port was in chips, start trimming very slowly and lock in some profit. I didn't say sellout all at once. That's how this cyclical stuff works.

Sector returns by year is always interesting to look at.
Here is the LINK to the chart.
Info Tech, Consumer Discretionary, Health Care, and Consumer Staples have all outperformed the index over the last 13 years.
Energy has been the worst performer 5 of the last 6 years, and was the second worst performer in 2012 and 2017...

Thank you for sharing where did u get the chart Eric? Health and pharma has a bunch of names which are trading cheap and have lagged the market, cah, BMY, mrk, abbv, Teva are some that comes to mind. Not sure if cvs and wba will also fall under this.

It's a very useful chart. You'll see a lot of discussion here about energy and materials. They are prone to euphoric peaks and protracted recovery periods. If you get FOMO and lean too much of you port into them near the top you are doomed to underperformance. You had one or two sectors in the 9-11 spots almost every year for the past ten years. Folks tend to sell out and realize big losses. Info tech and Cons Discretionary spend a lot of time in the top three. If you are going to use leverage they just make more sense. Leverage up on materials and miss the timing and half your money will be gone in a month or less. Same with yield trap ETFs that have already run. At some point they get beat up bad. We don't avoid them because we hate huge dividends.
