MPW ...is that a health care REIT ?
Not something I usually look at .
I mainly look for new disruptive business's / technologies
AMZN ...my biggest holding . Yes Bezos started selling books ...but you could see the wider applications . The only store I go into now ( besides Apple ) is the grocery store . Everything else ( clothes , shoes , toilet paper , tools etc etc ) is usually one day delivery on Amazon for me .
NFLX ...Last time I was in a movie theater was pre Covid ...Now everything is streamed via NFLX , Apple and Amazon
NVDA . I think I argued their case to you in early 2023 . Yes AI was making a lot of mistakes then but the amount of $ and talent going into that area you know it would eventually work . Any debate I have now is all sourced from Perplexity or ChatGPT
PLTR ...from early 2023 ..you could see their " boot camps " gaining traction .
More speculative .. APP ...my eldest son works for a media buying Co in LA ....driving sales thru Meta etc . APP appears to be disrupting part of that market

Then biotech where I may have some first hand experience ...or is in an area my wife deals with ( Kidney disease )

Those are the areas I generally stick to .
Happy to share ideas

N7. an example of disruptive tech ...SOUN.
I had reduced my position in the recent frenzy but will add back in tomorrow . I use voice activation whenever possible in my Tesla . When my son has his Spotify app running ....if you want to listen to Bob Marley music for instance ...you just press a button on the steering wheel and say ...play Bob Marley .
SOUN is mainly in fast food drive thru's and Lucid ...but once you start using it you can appreciate how it saves labor costs at drive thru's ...and ease of use in autos.
