What tech stock pics have been your biggest winners?

Long term has been Oracle (bought in 2009), Adobe (2007), Google (2013), Facebook (2018), Sony (2010), Nvidia (2007), and Netflix (2018) for me. Short term has been Reddit and Cloudflare.

My biggest loser to date is Nextdoor. Runners up include Docusign and Chewy. Wa-wahhhh.

Biggest winners over the years were RHAT (Red Hat) on opening day. Then Boots and Coots during Gulf War I. This company puts out oil well fires. Cisco was a big winner, sold it when it was clear they would not continue to dominate the networking market.

Biggest loser was a few bank stocks in 2008. Nicely offset by big gain in APPL same year.

Diversity (is that a bad word in today's politics) helped a lot here.

Because of the current regime I and others have moved to lower positions and because the regime has bought close to a billion dollars I and others have picked up positions in bonds.

It's a tough market as it's heavily distorted by the current US regime, tariffs and threats from the white house. THIS IS NOT POLITICAL. It is reality.

Ah, yes, I invested in Red Hat back in the day as well, but sold it quite a long while ago.

I also forgot to mention Apple. They were a big winner for me for quite a long time, but since marrying an AAPL lifer, their stock takes on a different meaning in my portfolio, if that makes sense.
