I have no expertise or profound knowledge about the stock market.

But in case you do want to take advice from a random comedian on the internet, here are my thoughts on what you should be doing with your stock portfolio.

BUY

• Almost anything, though be sure to check my “do not buy” section below. It seems most things are down and according to my dad the stock market as a whole always trends up. So as long as you’re not trying to sell tomorrow, almost anything will work.
• SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY): This has like everything in it and since basically everything is down, everything will have to go back up eventually.
• Grocery Outlet (GO): Everyone has to eat and grocery outlet has cheap food.

DO NOT BUY(OR SELL IF YOU UNFORTUNATELY ALREADY HAVE SOME)

• Kia (KRX): Have you heard about the TikTok trend where people steal Kias because a lot of them don’t have an anti-theft system? If not, now you have.
• Target (TGT): It’s up when pretty much everything else is down. Seems pretty sus.
• Anything that’s impacted by the writer/actor strike. Things like Netflix, Disney, etc. They’ll probably go back up eventually but I predict they will go down more first.

Follow these tips at your own risk. If you do follow my advice and you happen to make money, please share!
