Key insights
- A retail investor expresses losses in tech stocks (Micron, Tesla, Western Digital) and seeks investment ideas, mentioning defense stocks (Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics). The post reflects negative sentiment and highlights potential sector rotation from tech to defense. However, the overall market impact is limited due to the anecdotal nature of the post.

Hi. Lost my shirt on micron, Sandisk (!!!), Tesla, western digital etc. Totally down the drain - albeit very tech concentrated and my fault. I’m at a loss as to where to look now. Read about Lockheed, general dynamic - the defense play. Would love to hear where everyone else is putting their money these days. Any and all thoughts appreciated.
After this post being up for a few hours - thanks to everyone who responded. Very few had anything nice to say, most validated their own investing prowess. All but one person related to me by saying they were in the same boat. Get a grip people - I’m sure that with more than 100+ responses we were not the only two that have made mistakes. But, apparently, we were the only two to admit it. One last comment - be kind. That’s what the world needs more of today. We would all be better off. Wishing everyone a great weekend.
