My own feeling during this period is that the volatility of momentum stocks is too high, almost catching up with the long calls of the Magnificent Seven, but you wouldn't take a large position on long calls. Because momentum stocks are common stocks, you might overlook the risks, potentially taking half or even more of your position. I'm relatively cautious, only taking a 40% position in storage ($Sandisk(SNDK.US), $Micron Tech(MU.US)) and optical modules ($Marvell Tech(MRVL.US), $Lumentum(LITE.US), $Coherent Corp.(COHR.US), $Corning(GLW.US), $Nokia Oyj(NOK.US)). Moreover, I had already accumulated some storage positions before and didn't take a large position. The main issue was that there was no profit cushion from the optical modules before. The volatility over two days in July already caught up with the monthly volatility of February and March. And this is with the cushion from Value Brother's long calls. Therefore, the bulk of the portfolio must be allocated to large-cap stocks and indices, generating cash flow through long calls. Otherwise, you really need a strong heart and hold on without moving. Based on my own past experience with momentum stocks, it's best to control the position within 10-20% of the portfolio. Just aim for excess returns; it shouldn't affect sleep. I actually had $Rocket Lab(RKLB.US) before, and the returns were quite good. But the position never exceeded 5% of the total portfolio, purely treated as an option to chase excess returns. This time, it was mainly due to envy of the recent surge in storage and optical module stocks, blinded by greed and losing rationality, feeling that my own returns weren't high enough. Some tuition fees are inevitable. People can't teach you, but experience teaches you instantly. I'm sharing my own experience to warn myself and also to offer some insight to those who come after.
