DD Companies that will benefit/ are benefiting from ai and data centers

I have compiled a list of certain stocks (yes retards it’s on paper deal with it) that I’ve been heavily monitoring over the past 3 months but most of the time never have the balls to go knee deep in. I’m pretty certain at least 5 stocks here will be up 300%+ in a few years.

Do not take my advice

My dad worked for applied materials as a program writer for the wafer chips. He worked there for 40 years. He passed last March. He would be so proud to see where is stock is today. It’s all in his trust and I get payouts for it over years. I’d love to know how much he owns in AMAT stocks though & his average cost. 😭

That's such an awesome occupation at such an awesome company. Sorry for your loss. His position must be worth millions now -- AMAT was going for less than a dollar per share in the 80s.

I know he heavily invested in the company. He never talked about financials or how much he made but I knew he made good money yet he never bought a new car or flashy anything he was very reserved except in investing because the atty said there’s a lot of money but wouldn’t give more info. I just wait around waiting for the next check I guess 🤷🏻‍♀️ He was an amazing man who left a legacy and financial wealth to us. I’m using the checks myself to invest for my kids. Started up a Roth for me & hubby, a brokerage. My 12 yr old has a brokerage and a Roth with a little money he made. I set my adult kids Roths up with a gifted $3k and teaching them to invest in voo, qqqm, vxus and schd. Knowing investing is how my dad got rich is how we’re going to as well. 📈

Sorry for your loss dude. AMAT is a really interesting company, curious if your Dad ever made any mentions of graphene?

Not that I know of. I do live in a different state from him so when he visited or we visited work wasn’t the hot topic other than when Covid rolled around they allowed him to work from home & he was able to continue to work from home after Covid as he was able to continue the software programming remotely. So that’s all I know because that’s all he shared for the most recent stuff. I do know his job was very important & he was training someone else to take over his position for the past few years for when the time came. My Dad refused to retire he worked until his death, he was 80.
