I made the following bad investments in US stocks. The total amount invested is $647,000 USD and the total loss is $130,369 (20.1%).
Some of the holdings are for long term strategic reasons, i.e. Gold ETF and Barrick Gold.
Some are growth stocks that I expect will recover within the next two months - CSPR, EDIT, NIO.
One is disappointing and will be sold at a loss - GILD.
I realized profits of $500,000 on many hot stocks that I invested and sold over the past 15 months. So, they more than cover the above losses that I am holding.
