On January 6th, I posted an article that had the premise of letting ChatGPT pick stocks based on a specific criteria. I restricted ChatGPT to pick 5 shares it felt that would outperform the overall market. Initially, I felt I should do updates weekly, but have chose to update this roughly once a month (shooting for once every three weeks or so). The reason I don’t want to check this and report weekly updates is because it directly goes against my investment philosophy. I found the more I am looking at the price, the more I get anxious about it, the more a fixate on it. That’s not what investing in the market is supposed to do! You’re money is supposed to work for you, not you working for it, I found that if I monitor it too closely I cannot let it sit and grow.
This is a series I do at least monthly, this is the end of month two.
