Bullish Semiconductor and friends
Good morning friends - very long time reddit lurker (re years) first time poster. Qualifier for those looking at my reddit metrics blah blah blah. Ok that is out of the way.
I have been wanting to get much more serious into investing. I dabbled a bit in 2016ish with single stocks and did alright, not great, but still solid in the black. I think that little portfolio went 4x on like $3,000. So not bad, but not enough.
I have been cogitating on some portfolios bullish into semiconductors with some added cushion for downturn. Below is what I have come up with. Also it seems like Monday is the time to buy these days
Option a
- 35% SOXX
- 25% IVV
- 15% FTXL
- 10% XSD
- 10% IXN
- 5% XLB
- Return: 13–17%
- Expense Ratio: ~0.22%
Option B
- 30% IVV
- 20% SOXX
- 15% SCHD
- 15% FTXL
- 10% VXUS
- 10% IXN
- Return: 12–14%
- Expense Ratio: ~0.13%
Both have Monte Carlo scores over 87 for what that is worth. How does it look? If you had to pick one, which and why, or other? Thanks!
