My 1st US stock where I made 1Cr (close to 100K) in profits. (I own $NOW across 3 accounts). Over the last 1 year: I was able to pick at least 4 stocks, which gave me 150%+ returns (including Google). But, I was slow in building positions. What I've realized about US Stocks is that the cycles are fast and furious. You gotta act fast. (1) If you find a good stock: put decent capital. And, learn to protect it You can use a Put option to protect gains (2) Or horizontally diversify. Eg. if Software gets eaten by AI (let's assume) then the benefits should flow to (NVIDIA, Meta, Msft). So allocate capital accordingly. Most critical lesson: If you find a wide MOAT business at decent value (lean in). And, ride the momentum as long as possible. This story is also likely to play out
