I feel comfortable investing $1,000 in something. Where should I start?

the gall of y'all recommending this man to buy meme stocks and spec stocks...if this is your first investment into stocks, I'd suggest something safe like $SPY, $VOO, or another ETF that tracks the overall market. $QQQ if you want to be in the tech space (tech getting smashed rn). These ETF's won't see the rapid gains that you see in say $NIO, $TSLA, etc. BUT they also won't have the massive down days either. Again, this is ONLY if you have zero experience in the stock market and want a 'set it and forget it' investment. If you already have similar ETF's and you want to get into some single position equities then you can delve into some of these riskier individual plays.

If you want some safe plays with dividends check out $VZ and $HD (although Home Depot is at an all time high right now). Stay away from the temptation to chase meme stocks and flash in the pan stocks especially if you aren't someone who will be actively monitoring and trading in these positions.

Look into ethereum for your growth portfolio. Expect volatility if crypto goes thru a correction.

I’ve seen a $10,500 price target and a $16k price target from solid financial institutions (sorry y’all I forgot who).
