Individual tech stocks vs. NASDAQ-100

Sold the individual position directly before the Microsoft $MSFT (-0,04%) sold the individual position, as I don't see any above-average profit from Microsoft in the long term. I am now also considering Apple $AAPL (+0,87%) and $NVDA (-1,87%) as soon as they get close to their 52W highs again (which may take a while for the latter) and put the whole thing into a distributing NASDAQ 100 ETF. $EXXT (+0,06%) in a distributing NASDAQ 100 ETF. Only $GOOGL (+1,9%) is the only one I would like to keep, because I really do expect a lot of further development there and the product portfolio is the most broadly diversified.

What is your long-term experience with individual tech stocks compared to the NASDAQ? Do the Big 7 beat the broadly diversified index in the long term? Does it always depend on the current situation (in which, in my opinion, the really big ones in particular are overvalued)?

If you see no prospects for $MSFT, $AAPL, $NVDA etc. and no longer want them in your portfolio, your idea makes little sense to me. The Nasdaq is dominated by the Mag7 and these 3 positions alone make up 25% of the Nasdaq ... you are bringing these companies back into your portfolio through the back door, so to speak.

@GHF I continue to see growth in the three companies, but I doubt that they will grow *above average*. So, let's say hypothetically that the NASDAQ-100 rises by 30%, but Microsoft, Apple and NVIDIA only have a combined weighting of 25%. In that case, I will make a significant gain with the individual stocks, but less than would be possible as an alternative.

depending on how old you are, but if you invest for another 50 years, you can say goodbye to strong returns with this plan. I have beaten the ETF you mentioned by more than three times every year since 2021. However, nobody knows what it will look like in 5-10 years' time

@VincP3 But you also have to say that your portfolio consists of 60% NVIDIA. This means that NVIDIA has beaten the ETF mentioned above by 3x (without having done the math). Whether a portfolio should consist of such a big lump would be a different discussion. But his approach is probably more in the direction of more diversification and still an excess return

I can recommend the new video by Timo Baudzus.
Lisa also talks a bit about the topic (towards the end of the interview)

why $EXXT and not $EQQQ?

Jonas@jonas189

@DoppelSchlechtMinus I started with that one back then without giving it much thought, because ING had suggested it to me as a savings plan. Are there any major advantages to the other one you suggest?

Hebel-Horst@DoppelSchlechtMinus

@jonas189 Nothing serious, but it has performed slightly better than iShares almost every year so far. But if you already have it, there's no reason to switch. I was rather wondering whether I was overlooking an advantage with the other one.
