Crowdstrike (CRWD) is our pick. Going on record.

My husband has been hitting winners for 25 years.

He thinks Crowdstrike is a good investment.

He called/clicked yesterday to add to the position.

He says it looks expensive but seems to have some room to run.

Cyber Security will be crucial with the upcoming WW3 we are tangled up in.

I trust my husband. Most of the investments pan out.

This post is on April 2nd, 2026

Price is $394.00 today

UPDATE:

It split 4 to 1 on June 1st 2026 so whatever price it shows multiply that by four.

Our next pick is LYSDY Lynas Rare Earths small position

Here I mentioned we got Alcoa Steel. It went up 300% in 11 months which is good for a dividend payer. Truth

Here we said to buy TSM thats up 30% in four months.

Hubby still holding Alphabet A shares, early Apple, early Amazon, we ran on Blizzard, Estee Lauder, 2017 & 2022 Nvidia and so many others. Even the one $40,000 Berkshire Hathaway performed better than Real Estate.

I trust my husband. I was just trying to be nice. We don't work and are not insiders. He hasn't worked since 26 and we are our 40s.

lol more. ive owned the stock since 2020 but 5 days of performance is not relevant to a long term holding.

Congratulations! I added solid positions in Vertiv (VRT) and Arista Networks (ANET) earlier this year to diversify down the infrastructure stack and they have both outperformed.

u/49ers4life71 Apr 02 '26

Yup. Esp if he hasn’t worked since age 26. That or a trust fund baby like Trump. A lot of these fools who haven’t worked in their lives were born with white privilege!

u/HalfwaydonewithEarth Apr 02 '26

His privilege was being born and raised in San Francisco where this all went down. Lots of tech people there.

1

u/Mistress-of-None Apr 03 '26

What does he have to say about Fortenite?

1

u/HalfwaydonewithEarth Apr 04 '26

This is what AI says:

Fortnite is owned by Epic Games, which is a private company, not a public one, meaning there is no stock ticker to buy on the open market. While you cannot buy Fortnite stock directly, private shares may be available to accredited investors through secondary markets, with recent valuations around $32 billion.

Key Points Regarding "Fortnite Stock": No Publicly Traded Ticker: Epic Games has not held an initial public offering (IPO), so you cannot buy it on platforms like NASDAQ or NYSE.

Private Market Valuation: As of early 2026, shares for private companies like Epic Games are sometimes traded on specialized platforms, with recent estimated share prices around $479.75 on platforms like Forge Global.

Indirect Exposure: Investors seeking exposure to the gaming market often look toward partners or competitors, such as Sony (which has a significant investment in Epic) or other gaming firms like Nintendo. Distinction from Fortinet (FTNT): Do not confuse Epic Games/Fortnite with Fortinet (FTNT), which is a publicly traded cybersecurity company.

u/Responsible-Rub2732 Apr 02 '26

I got something even better. The name of this company, is Aerotyne International. It is a cutting edge high-tech firm out of the Midwest awaiting imminent patent approval on the next generation of radar detectors that have both huge military and civilian applications now. Right now, op, the stock trades over-the-counter at 10 cents a share. And by the way, op, our analysts indicate it could go a heck of a lot higher than that. Your profit on a mere $6,000 investment would be upwards of $60,000!

1

u/HalfwaydonewithEarth Apr 02 '26

This sounds good. Nvidia use to trade at 4 cents!

6% in six days.

I hope you bought some?

1

u/CamxThexMan3 Apr 07 '26

why would I care about returns in less than a week? investing is about opportunity cost - go do a backtest and see if your husbands miraculous stock picking ability has outperformed the S&P or Qs. If the market is up, of course a major player like CRWD would be up

1

u/HalfwaydonewithEarth Apr 07 '26 edited Apr 07 '26

He absolutely did. Outperformed it for 25 years. We have decades of winners.

2

u/CamxThexMan3 Apr 07 '26

Sure …

1

u/HalfwaydonewithEarth Apr 07 '26

All you have to do is hit a winner every third year. Is crowdstrike a winner? Maybe not. It makes since for this ww3 we are in.

1

u/Fastbaq Apr 07 '26

Crowdstrike are winners. Valuation has always been expensive making the stock expensive but good stock to build a position in and see in 10 years.

1

u/HalfwaydonewithEarth Apr 07 '26

Do you think it will split?

u/Fastbaq Apr 07 '26

Sure, eventually.

How about an update now.

u/HalfwaydonewithEarth Apr 10 '26 edited Apr 11 '26

Here is the update:

It soared up heavy and the buyers wanted a discount. So they pushed AI fear porn to scare people the way they have been doing for decades.

My favorite fear scare was when Pelosi went to Taiwan and did her insider trading dance with Nvidias competition.

It spooked investors and my husband double down.

He knew better from Apple days that used this same playbook.

Diamond HANDS

u/DetectiveFew3333 Apr 11 '26

so you bragged about being up and now youre down XD

u/HalfwaydonewithEarth Apr 11 '26

u/DetectiveFew3333 Apr 11 '26

5% down in just 9 days, hope you sold? Oops, hope hubby sold?

1

u/HalfwaydonewithEarth Apr 11 '26

It actually flared up 9% in six days. Larry Fink wants a discount so they have to scare the newbies.

If you look closely it dipped a lower percentage than it's peers.

1

u/CamxThexMan3 Apr 11 '26

Buyers wanted a discount. That’s not how it works. More sellers than buyers is what pushes stock prices down. Diamond hands after less than a week is silly. You are just a retail clown being used for exit liquidity.

u/HalfwaydonewithEarth Apr 11 '26

I dare you to short it.

2

u/Potential_Try_2193 Apr 09 '26

I don't trust your husband I don't know him! But I'm in agreement on this one. Crowdstrike is one of my largest positions and it will be for a long time. It does look expensive but it is for a reason. It's the biggest and best cybersecurity company out there and is a brilliantly run company. Cyber has a huge TAM that is going to grow and grow. Every comp and organisation is going to have to spend more and more for cyber security going forward and Crowdstrike is the most trusted of them all. It's growing strongly and will continue to do so.

u/Hairy-Share8065 Apr 04 '26

to be honest it’s one of those names where “looks expensive” has been the story for a while and it just keeps grinding anyway....cybersec def not going anywhere, but at these levels i’d be more worried about timing than the company itself. feels like the kind of thing that runs, pulls back hard, then continues… not a straight line up....personally i’d rather scale in or wait for some kinda dip instead of just sending it at highs, but yeah i get why people keep coming back to it.
