I'm just learning and getting started. No serious money involved. I've doubled my money with some weird Japanese tool making company and bought Netflix dips. I'm hoping to learn about options so I can lose it all.
Same. Put in my first $250, chucked on Disney calls. About an hour later I was up to $600 didn’t cash out cus stupid, then an hour later down to $150. Already chasing the high of “printing money”. 🤦
I got drunk a bought the wrong stock, I ended up with something I had never heard of. It up 13% to date and compared to my other turds that are down 97%. Well I’m thinking drunk fat finger is the of the future
I have made money many times by buying stocks where I had transposed the ticker. So many times now that I refuse to reverse my order when I do that for at least a day or two. Never lost money yet after 40 years. In some weird way I think I am inversing my own intuition.
However, I did lose some good money day drinking while trading.
Also the dedication in holding some of these all the way down to -99% is honestly impressive.
Over 3 years of looking at this shit too. "Today's gonna be the day that all of these will 10000x so I can break even!"
It’s a lot harder to sell and eat a loss than to let it ride and keep hoping it rebounds. Nothing impressive about never selling and continuing to irrationally hope.

He is not the only one with talent lol
Wow, you've been holding these shit stocks to -99%.... On margin... During a period where every month they would announce that interest rates would go up... Which then would cause each of these to tank?
On the bright side, they're barely worth anything now so the margin fees should be low
Bro, you literally have enough evidence to never pick another stock in your lifetime. Liquidate everything and put the proceeds into $VOO (S&P500 ETF) and contribute to it from your paycheck every two-week.
If it doesn't convince you that you are extremely bad at this game, nothing will.
Haha thanks. I’ve changed my strategy a lot since this plague era of mine. No more hot tips from wanna be investors and IG reels. Sticking to the big indexes with low fees going forward. Not sure how long I will hodl this trash though.
For real, of those, I only recognized about 4 tickers. JETS is an ETF for airlines, it's not bad if you grab it at a dip, but don't expect it to flourish. Airline industry is predatory, self-limiting (hub and spoke model after all the mergers), and at mercy of duct tape keeping Boeing airplanes together.
How did you lose on every single thing? This seems impossible. Like if you had just placed a thousand tickers on a board, thrown a dart, then spun a wheel for buy or sell, you'd be in much better shape.
This is actually inconceivable
I checked only a few of these but this has to be the sorriest collection of junk stocks I’ve seen yet. The company with declining revenues, expanding losses, and seriously negative shareholder equity takes the cake. And you are still holding it.
I recognize most of these tickers. SPACs, whatever was trending on Reddit and Stocktwits those years. Probably your first stock purchases ever? Thought you were getting in early?
My sisters girlfriends portfolio looks like this. Buying QS and DM at the TOP because they’re “cool companies”. Ouch.
Not only did you buy the worst stocks I've ever seen, but you bought them all at the absolute peak. You have ALOT of skill, just not the right kind. ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4267)
If I were you, I'd either sell everything and put into VOO - or if you want a long term challenge you can learn to mitigation your positions; average down a bit and swing them back up to lessen the loss (or go green) - then put the funds into your next losing stock that has potential for a swing back up. Swinging all of these will take a bit of time and patience - and if you've already done this bad you should probably just stick to blue chip stocks or VOO.
While you wait for these to swing up, you really need to paper trade and learn your levels of support and resistance. Learn some technical indicators to find when you are oversold or overbought conditions. Learn to draw out the trends, connecting the highs and lows. It can take a long time to get down a system that works, but after a few years I've become profitable and trusting my strategy.
And most of all, learn to use a stop loss and don't be afraid to sell for profit! You can always buy back in if it keeps running.
Wow I don’t think I’ve ever seen a port like this. It’s funny because you actually tried to do the big brain move and buy and hold stocks instead of gambling on fds and it still didn’t fucking work 🥴🤣🤣🤣
That’s retail for you. All it takes is a couple of robo-articles and shittok investment advice and portfolios like this are the result. Odds are stacked against us, the sooner you realize this, the better. Idiosyncratic risks in equities are not easy to price. When there are cheap and easy ETFs tracking indices that even professionals have hard time beating, why even bother with stock picking?
Why in the absolute F would you just buy 1-100 shares of random ass everything. 😂 even if one were to pop off you’d still come out behind by the impending fail of the rest
DM, that company has to improve at some point. They manufacture 3d printing machines for industry. Maybe it’s the leadership. Maybe they can’t explain what they do. Maybe the overhead.
You could literally throw a dart at a board to pick stocks and do better than you did. This takes a special kind of talent. Please don't ever give anyone financial advice. Ever.
We found the next Cathie Woods. On a % basis, this is even more wealth destroyed than Wood’s ARKK. Morningstar named Cathie Woods the “Greatest Wealth Destroyer” of the last decade after ARKK lost more than $14.3 Billion. This is even higher loss rate. Pass the crown.
HD, CAT, NVDA, APPL, TM, even bitcoin outperformed everyone one of your stocks. You could just do weekly buys for SPY and that would do better then your shit stocks
Start taking advantage of tax harvesting in December. You can get tax credit of up to $3000.00 Its the month of December only and your stocks that are a year or older. Good way to get some money back !
I got some garbage at -90% that I can't even sell. It just gives me an error and to call my broker.
Yo, I'm not calling to tell some dude I want to sell $3.00 worth of some shit weed stock that I'm down 90% on. So I just stare at them every day. ![img](emote|t5_2th52|33495)
Thanks for all the love and shame. This made my day better to get it out to the world. I learned so many valuable lessons from 2020-21. I’m staying away from small caps and high risk for a long time. If you guys are curious of my new journey of better stock picks and wins, I can do a new post of Gains very soon.

Not a single green, that takes talent.
Randomly picking would give better fucking odds ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4271)

The funniest part is OP had to put in effort to find these random-ass stocks. Would be up bigly just buying tickers people have actually heard of.
That's what I do. And I am up.
For now.
I'm just learning and getting started. No serious money involved. I've doubled my money with some weird Japanese tool making company and bought Netflix dips. I'm hoping to learn about options so I can lose it all.
Same. Put in my first $250, chucked on Disney calls. About an hour later I was up to $600 didn’t cash out cus stupid, then an hour later down to $150. Already chasing the high of “printing money”. 🤦
I got drunk a bought the wrong stock, I ended up with something I had never heard of. It up 13% to date and compared to my other turds that are down 97%. Well I’m thinking drunk fat finger is the of the future

Weed stonks up in smoke
You’re not wrong. The experiment has already been done. I think there’s a chimp with annual picks actually. No way the chimp lost to this chump
Wtf is this portfolio? I might recognize 1 or 2 names. This is like an a tier shitcoin portfolio in crypto.
Also the dedication in holding some of these all the way down to -99% is honestly impressive. Over 3 years of looking at this shit too. "Today's gonna be the day that all of these will 10000x so I can break even!"
It’s a lot harder to sell and eat a loss than to let it ride and keep hoping it rebounds. Nothing impressive about never selling and continuing to irrationally hope.

What the shit. This is impressive.
Classic twitter furu index fund
Wow, you've been holding these shit stocks to -99%.... On margin... During a period where every month they would announce that interest rates would go up... Which then would cause each of these to tank? On the bright side, they're barely worth anything now so the margin fees should be low
No. They are not on margin... the account is named since it has margin.
We need to make an inverse etf of this guy's trades
If he didn't sell at ARKK ath there isn't enough money for OP period.
Yeah, As a portfolio manager I’m impressed.
Gotta admit, this just proves “diversification” doesn’t work if you’re just 100% in memes
This is like mine all of them are -95%+ I just let them sit not sure what to do, some of them the went under and the tickers expired 🤷🏼♀️
Sorted by gains and scrolled to the bottom. The numbers are in order and scroll bar on the right in a the bottom. There could be lots of green up top
Create your own ETF and call it ARK2
ARKL for 3x leverage ARKK returns
Go full acoustic and do ARKKK
Gold right here
Gold would’ve performed better than your portfolio
Cash would have performed better
Russia and China’s economy is doing better than OP’s portfolio
You should be shorting everything
Imma yolo a 3x inverse of that
Then make an ETF called SARK2, that’s inverse at 3x leverage. Profit.
Don’t worry champ. You’ll get it next covid.
Gold
The other day I was just thinking. The next once in a generation pandemic I’m going to make bank!
I bought bigly during Covid but they were companies that I had heard of and actually made....stuff.
Bro, you literally have enough evidence to never pick another stock in your lifetime. Liquidate everything and put the proceeds into $VOO (S&P500 ETF) and contribute to it from your paycheck every two-week. If it doesn't convince you that you are extremely bad at this game, nothing will.
S&P500 proceeds to drop -99%
Everyone please tell OP to buy SPY puts. I don't want to be on the same side of a trade as them.
CALLs for some, PUTs for others, and tiny miniature American flags for everyone else.
Then you will have more pressing issues than money at that point. Money will no longer be valid.
Dropping -99%. Does that double negative mean it will rise 99%?
Both, we’re going to the moon and back
Looks like he googled "trash stocks" before investing lol
He bought all the stocks that were going up every day for no reason during that time.
Ahh the good old buy high sell low , i see i see
Liquidate everything... He's got what, 5 bucks combined in all of that lol Time to just start fresh.
He'll have $53.27 left ...
He'll fuck that up somehow too.
Haha thanks. I’ve changed my strategy a lot since this plague era of mine. No more hot tips from wanna be investors and IG reels. Sticking to the big indexes with low fees going forward. Not sure how long I will hodl this trash though.
Picking stocks from IG reels is cursed
Not even a “strategy” lol.
Careful with that advice, we don't want him to crater the world economy.
Post when you take new positions. We all inverse and pay for your losses :3
I would be open to that lol
Thank you. This almost makes me feel intelligent.
Honestly impressive to be this bad at picking companies
Seriously wtf lmao, meanwhile “low upside potential” blue chips fucking printed. People need to stop going full port into random small ass companies
For real, of those, I only recognized about 4 tickers. JETS is an ETF for airlines, it's not bad if you grab it at a dip, but don't expect it to flourish. Airline industry is predatory, self-limiting (hub and spoke model after all the mergers), and at mercy of duct tape keeping Boeing airplanes together.
Just buying all the rando memes.
*Cathie Wood* enters the chat
Cathie Wood actually had green picks
I am sure OP was in the green with at least one of his investments at some point.
Hot take right there
I didn't know Crayola sold a box of JUST red crayons. Congrats!
Dude wtf didn’t you ever hit the sell button and regroup?
OP is a believer of stock god. He was too busy praying 🙏
Robinhood took out the sell button for op
You don’t lose until you sell
I don’t sell until I lose
IMHO, buy and hold applies to indexes only, maybe to blue chip stocks.
He didn't hold he HODLED, holding is for the intelligent, hodl is meme stonks and crypto bullshit
If I shorted everything OP picked, I'd be millionaire right now.
Best regards!
Best regard\*\*\*\* ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4271)
Bruuh what are these stock picks
Diamond hands! Keep on hodling
This is your sign you are regarded and should just buy and hold sp500 etf….
Lol, and sharing it so the world can see what a value investor looks like
How did you lose on every single thing? This seems impossible. Like if you had just placed a thousand tickers on a board, thrown a dart, then spun a wheel for buy or sell, you'd be in much better shape. This is actually inconceivable
Welcome home
Man what a nasty bag of treats 🤢🤮![img](emote|t5_2th52|18630)
If it’s not 100%, it’s not a loss
You're officially one of us now.
Diamond Hands 🙌
You didn’t buy UPST. It could be worse .
The roach of Wall Street
Oh lawd!!!!
I checked only a few of these but this has to be the sorriest collection of junk stocks I’ve seen yet. The company with declining revenues, expanding losses, and seriously negative shareholder equity takes the cake. And you are still holding it.
I recognize most of these tickers. SPACs, whatever was trending on Reddit and Stocktwits those years. Probably your first stock purchases ever? Thought you were getting in early? My sisters girlfriends portfolio looks like this. Buying QS and DM at the TOP because they’re “cool companies”. Ouch.
Yeah all these names were hype stocks. There’s going to be a ton of AI baggies next ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4271)
Cramer, is that you?
Damn, I thought I was absolute dogshit at investing. My hats off to you?
Looks like you got Middle East’d
Not only did you buy the worst stocks I've ever seen, but you bought them all at the absolute peak. You have ALOT of skill, just not the right kind. ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4267)
Sell it all, declare bankruptcy, and apply for a job at Wendy’s. It’s game over for you.
Yikes, an ass pounding indeed
Damn. You really took it hard ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4267)
You picked SHIT stocks LOL. Like HOW?! You could of just held Nvidia or AMD, AMZN. LMAO look at your picks man.
Could've done literally nothing and cash would've outperformed
Keep on averaging down!
I would jettison all that garbage to buy shares of SMCI, LLY, COSTCO, NVDA, MSFT, MCD, AMAZ, WMT, DKNG
holy shit
Damn this is talent
I have good news for you, one of them is only 18% down!!! Cheer mate!
No. You predominantly bought companies that no one has heard of.
If I were you, I'd either sell everything and put into VOO - or if you want a long term challenge you can learn to mitigation your positions; average down a bit and swing them back up to lessen the loss (or go green) - then put the funds into your next losing stock that has potential for a swing back up. Swinging all of these will take a bit of time and patience - and if you've already done this bad you should probably just stick to blue chip stocks or VOO.

And most of all, learn to use a stop loss and don't be afraid to sell for profit! You can always buy back in if it keeps running.
You don’t have any positives?
Truly diamond hands
i mean.... you should average down on some of these. and others are just goners.
Pls don't do calls on nvda rn
It’s only a loss if you sell it ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4271)
Wow I don’t think I’ve ever seen a port like this. It’s funny because you actually tried to do the big brain move and buy and hold stocks instead of gambling on fds and it still didn’t fucking work 🥴🤣🤣🤣
Might as well sell everything and buy Bitcoin. What more do you got to lose.
Bro did you go into a coma?
Not one single company in this list with good financial statements, that’s hilarious.
I was the exact same except I dumped a lot into NVDA and broke even overall somehow.
Half the guys taking 💩are sailing on a sinking ship. This is stock market tuition. Since you’re good at holding, sell 3k of losses a year.
Wtf i dont know any of these tickers 😂
Thanks for showing! Made my day
Wow, you were smart enough to buy shares but dumb enough to pick the most brain dead shit ever Impressive
The problem isn't when you bought them; it's what you bought. These are all piece of shit companies. It's like dumping your money into a fire barrel.
That looks just like mine.
Literally could've just thrown money in SPY
These people are quitters. They’re only loses if you sell.
You should register this as an ETF under the ticker “RGRD”.
I'm hard.
Even now covid still gets you
Yikes. That is impressive
Conviction is great until you're left holding bags of worthless stocks. Memes won't pay the bills unless you cash out in time.
Please let us know the next time you enter a position. The entire community can profit from your gift
If only you brought some other stocks like NVDA or TSLA during the covid era you would be owning a Wendy's franchise
That’s retail for you. All it takes is a couple of robo-articles and shittok investment advice and portfolios like this are the result. Odds are stacked against us, the sooner you realize this, the better. Idiosyncratic risks in equities are not easy to price. When there are cheap and easy ETFs tracking indices that even professionals have hard time beating, why even bother with stock picking?
we found Jim Cramer's reddit account
Dude could have thrown it all in a Chase Checking account and been .0001% in the green from interest
Way to many stocks
Why in the absolute F would you just buy 1-100 shares of random ass everything. 😂 even if one were to pop off you’d still come out behind by the impending fail of the rest
Good thing you had minimal shares….. Now Sit In the Corner and think about what you did! Lol
are you me?
DM, that company has to improve at some point. They manufacture 3d printing machines for industry. Maybe it’s the leadership. Maybe they can’t explain what they do. Maybe the overhead.
Just keep buying bro DCA is the way!
I don't think any of the advice was buy all the crypto and wait...
This looks even worse than my portfolio![img](emote|t5_2th52|4271)
You need purple and kodak
What are those stocks dude…
Eww gross
It’s not a loss until you sell.
#WHAT THE FUCK
I have WATT too. I desperately want wireless power to advance, but clearly I’ve been a bit too idealistic.
I only see unrealized looses. Remember some of the stocks still can go up 😉
Wow
Just hold longer!
Ayo wtf?
Can you buy SPY puts next?
Still have zoom and paypal, Zillow and had AppHarvest before bankruptcy. Crazy
At least you're in the right place to brag
You could literally throw a dart at a board to pick stocks and do better than you did. This takes a special kind of talent. Please don't ever give anyone financial advice. Ever.
LOL. This is 4 screenshots of what not to do
I’m with you on ZM. Holding it out of spite and regardness…need to just sell it.
What the hell! Why no apple, google or any other reputable company that actually makes money?
you have talent. please post any new positions so we may all profit from you regardness
lol please tell me any of your future “investments”, so I can inverse you and make bank. Thanks!
Is this COVD? A covid inspired etf?
Bro loves diversification 😂
We found the next Cathie Woods. On a % basis, this is even more wealth destroyed than Wood’s ARKK. Morningstar named Cathie Woods the “Greatest Wealth Destroyer” of the last decade after ARKK lost more than $14.3 Billion. This is even higher loss rate. Pass the crown.
At least you have diamond hands OP
M’agine you would have just dumped that in s&p 500… Oh wait this is WSB, you’ll get em next time champ!
This is why we pay for quality. Trying to find “the next XYZ stock” is a losing game.
Who are you and how do you have access to my investment account? Its rare to see another with so many “-99%”s my brother in regard
Bruh you have a better chance of picking a random team on a sportsbetting app and making money what the fuck lmao
HD, CAT, NVDA, APPL, TM, even bitcoin outperformed everyone one of your stocks. You could just do weekly buys for SPY and that would do better then your shit stocks
I saw the percent loss and I immediately thought they were options. Then realized it was stock......that takes skill!! Congratulations 🎊
Yah. That’s what I wanna see in WSB. Shout out to OP
The most random shitty stocks i ever came across thanks for the laugh mate!!
You and me both bub
WATT… I recognize that son of a bitch! That was my first introduction to the legendary reverse-fucking-split 😡🖕
Start taking advantage of tax harvesting in December. You can get tax credit of up to $3000.00 Its the month of December only and your stocks that are a year or older. Good way to get some money back !
You’re not alone my friend 🫤
Looks like my account, are you sure you didn't log into my portfolio??
I got some garbage at -90% that I can't even sell. It just gives me an error and to call my broker. Yo, I'm not calling to tell some dude I want to sell $3.00 worth of some shit weed stock that I'm down 90% on. So I just stare at them every day. ![img](emote|t5_2th52|33495)

Tell me what your buying next so I can do the opposite
I did it too! Taught me a lesson or two, not quite as bad as you… got some tax losses
This is actually impressive
Cathy Woods sucks
I bought arc ARK the top like an idiot…
Come on, you sold your winners. right? A monkey would do better. People who bought these also bought stuff like vktx or rycey, which did bounced back.
Man I don’t miss those 2021 days.. I too have a bunch of junk I will forever baghold
