$Apple(AAPL)$ I recently increased my position in Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL), aligning with long-term conviction rather than short-term trading. Influential voices like Jim Cramer continue to advocate a “own it, don’t trade it” approach, highlighting Apple’s resilience and consistent growth. Adding to the bullish outlook, Morgan Stanley raised its price target to $315 and maintained an Overweight rating, citing stronger fiscal year 2027 earnings projections. While rising memory chip prices could impact margins, Apple’s robust ecosystem and strategic positioning support continued value creation, making it a core holding in my portfolio.
$Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ I added to my AMD position following recent analyst guidance from Bank of America. Despite lowering the price target from $300 to $260, BofA maintained a Buy rating, highlighting the long-term growth potential in AI-driven infrastructure. They view 2026 as the midpoint of a decade-long transition toward AI-optimized IT systems, supported by hyperscaler investments and the development of large language models. While near-term volatility may arise from market scrutiny of AI returns, the firm expects AMD to benefit from expanding AI factories and increasing demand for high-performance computing. This reinforces my confidence in AMD’s strategic positioning.
$Amazon.com(AMZN)$ I made an additional investment in Amazon (AMZN) as confidence in its long-term growth trajectory strengthens. Amazon (AMZN) remains a dominant force in e-commerce and cloud computing, supported by strong fundamentals and analyst optimism, though recent insider selling and market volatility warrant caution. Amazon’s diversified moat and AI investments justify long-term confidence, but near-term price action may reflect broader tech sector trends.
$Broadcom(AVGO)$ I made an additional investment in Broadcom (AVGO) as the stock continues to demonstrate remarkable consistency in outperforming the broader market. Broadcom (AVGO) is currently trading at $354.81 (as of January 2, 2026), with strong analyst sentiment and solid financial metrics, though its high valuation multiples warrant caution. AVGO remains a high-quality tech play with robust fundamentals and analyst backing, but its premium valuation demands careful entry timing.
$Alphabet(GOOG)$ I added to my GOOG position after BMO Capital raised its price target to $343 on December 16 while reiterating an “Outperform” rating. Alphabet (GOOG) demonstrates strong fundamentals and bullish analyst sentiment, supported by its AI-driven growth and market leadership, though elevated valuation metrics warrant caution. Alphabet’s AI momentum and robust profitability justify its premium, but investors should monitor execution risks and valuation stretchedness.
$Microsoft(MSFT)$ I added to my Microsoft position as I believe the market is underestimating the power of Azure’s next phase of growth and the structural AI shift ahead. Microsoft remains a dominant force in cloud computing and AI, but recent stock performance reflects mixed sentiment amid valuation concerns and competitive pressures in the AI space. Heading toward 2026, I view Microsoft as one of the strongest large-cap tech names to own.
$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ I made an additional investment in Nvidia (NVDA) due to its strong momentum in the AI chip market. Reuters reported that Nvidia plans to start shipping H200 AI chips to Chinese clients before the Lunar New Year, fulfilling initial orders of 40,000–80,000 chips from existing stock. This demonstrates robust demand and efficient supply management. Looking ahead, Nvidia is expanding production capacity, with new orders opening in Q2 2026, positioning the company to capture further growth in the AI sector. This strategic execution reinforces my confidence in Nvidia’s long-term prospects.
$Oracle(ORCL)$ I added to my position in Oracle today, driven by strong long-term fundamentals. Citizens recently maintained a “Market Outperform” rating with a $342 price target, emphasizing confidence in Oracle’s cloud business, contract economics, and financing ability. While rising debt insurance costs and media focus on debt concerns have created some market confusion, Citizens points out that Oracle’s long-term contracts remain highly valuable, and the company continues to fund projects efficiently. I see this as an opportunity to invest in a resilient cloud leader with solid financial discipline and long-term growth potential.
$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ I’ve made an additional investment in Tesla stock, motivated by the company’s ongoing progress in autonomous technology. Recent reports highlight Tesla’s testing of robotaxi rides in Austin without safety monitors, signaling a significant milestone in their self-driving ambitions. While Goldman Sachs maintains a Neutral rating with a $400 target, I see this development as a strategic long-term growth driver. The execution risks are real, but the potential for market leadership in autonomous mobility makes Tesla a compelling addition to my portfolio at this stage.
$Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing(TSM)$ I added to my TSM position following strong analyst support. Morgan Stanley highlights TSM as one of the top picks in the chip sector, noting AI semiconductor demand remains a key growth driver. Bank of America also reaffirmed a Buy rating with a $390 price target, reflecting confidence in TSM’s leadership in advanced semiconductor manufacturing and its role in powering the expanding AI and compute markets. This combination of robust industry positioning and positive analyst sentiment underpins my investment decision.
