Individual stock or ETF's? is it wise to sell off my individual and invest in etfs? why or why not?

So currently my individual brokerage portfolio consists of a lot of individual big name tech stocks and a couple index funds because I had no clue what I was doing and I'm sure isn't a bad idea for the long term, but lately I've been reading a lot about high growth index funds that cover a lot more diverse options and I'm not sure if I should sell off my individuals and purchase the etfs instead or if I should now start investing only in etfs..?

Trying to find an etf comprised of only top 10 market caps

So far have only discovered XLG and PTNQ, but even they don’t fully fit the criteria.

XLG makes up the top 50 companies by market cap, while PTNQ makes up the top 100 companies by market cap.

Also, would appreciate if all advise includes only index ETFs.

Why FIAT printing is good ELI5 (the three stages of money)

Ok so let’s talk cash money. The fed controls it… it isn’t finite…. Yada yada. There are concerns with the cost of money (the fed rate) and the total amount (printer go brrrrr) but you MUST look at it macroscopically. Let’s make a super simple example to explain why money printing is GOOD, but let’s first explain why it would be BAD to stop printing all together. (Stage 1) Let’s say the 1%’ers decided it was time to pause spending and effectively took their “buc

Review my AAPL stock prediction from 2022

Was I right in 2022? AAPL just touched a record $184.95. I argued that AAPL's changes that came during the pandemic would prevent it from collapsing back to pre-pandemic price points like most other stocks.

Researching loans an etf tracks. Question.

Hi there,

Was hoping that someone could point me in the right direction. I am currently researching an etf that tracks the value of loans. I have the issuer name, cusip and isin of the loans that the etf tracks. I also know the class of asset the etf tracks.

I can see the market value, yield , issue date and maturity dat

Questions about exercising options

Hey all. Have some questions about company stocks and options.

I've vested the majority of my restricted stock awards over the years with my company but now have a lot of options to exercise. Does it make any sense to sell some stock at a win just to have the money to exercise and hold?

I did this a few years back and ended up getting hit pretty hard on taxes between capital gains and AMT. My goal is solely to build this for retirement. Any ad

Should I be reinvesting in QQQ or TQQQ?

I have been reinvesting all dividends into QQQ (DCA style) and generally have < $300/mo that just sits (due to cost of a share of QQQ) I know a little about TQQQ but not much; the share price is about 1/10 the cost but it also seems to not follow the index fully (at least not yesterday) so I guess my TLDR is should I be using QQQ or TQQQ for reinvestment ?

How US stocks rose 20% from their lows, and where they might be going

U.S. stocks have defied fears of a recession, a banking crisis and soaring Treasury yields to rise 20% from their October lows - one definition of a bull market.

The benchmark S&P 500 index closed at a low of 3,577.03 on Oct. 12, 2022, down 25% from its all-time high after the Federal Reserve unleashed a series of bruising interest rate increases to fight decades-high inflation.

On Thursday, it closed up 0.6% at 4,293.93, amid growing optimism
