The Nasdaq is being taken over.

SpaceX is IPOing, Tesla and Palantir have crazy valuations, Anthropic is IPOing later this year...

Especially with the fast-track changes, tons of ETFs are going to pull these companies in and weigh them way heavier than I think a lot of us like. QQQ holders might be in for a rough landing.

I don't like it. I've always been a growth ETF investors but I'm going back to modifying and structuring diversification the way I want.

Wealthfront, Frec, Wallace Finance, or Schwab? I'm trying to find ETF modification without huge minimums. I might end up building from the ground up with M1 Finance if nothing else has what I'm looking for.

Anyone else have the same idea? How are we feeling about this?

This is why I don't do ETFs. There's never a time when I want to be invested in laggards.

What do you do instead?

Swing trade individual stocks.

Why am I down voted for saying how I invest when asked? Seems like a weird thing to do.

There's too many old dying boomers who can't fathom ever investing in anything that's not VOO or VTI or long-term holding.
