Normally, I try to do monthly updates on one of my investments that I do, the ChatGPT vs S&P 500 specifically. I missed it by a couple days, I was supposed to do it on the 26th of March, but here it is on the 4th!

I find it an interesting time to do this reporting, especially going forward in the future, with tariffs and the market response. It will also be interesting to see what the recovery will look like. The tariffs will effect the picks from ChatGPT more drastically because they are weighted tech heavy picks.

With that being said, let’s see where we’re at:
