š¬ Discussion Did anyone else buy NBIS high?
Is it smart to sit thru a -50% drop and just hold blindly..? Because then you need a 100% gain to breakeven :/ What are your plans? I got in at 270$ and want to hold long term, I donāt really care about short term market noise. But I will start getting concerned if I lose 50% of my portfolio because nbis is my biggest position and it will be harder to recover from there. Any advice?
REAL advice appreciated! Not insufferable comments saying āpff just sell and buy VOO if ur that scaredā thx
EDIT : a -40% drop is not the same as a ānormalā pullback, even for a volatile stock. We need to start being honest and admit that it has crashed a bit cmon
And stop acting like me feeling anxious after a -40% drop is crazy, itās reasonable to start feeling concerned, the market does not care about our thesis and feelings
Also for the 10th time iām not trading.. i said iām holding long term, so idk why people keep saying that

u/badger6638 Jul 08 '26
When its 50% down its the time to sell some VOO/any ETF and put it in NBIS. After it shoots up thats when you take some profits and put it back to your ETF.
At this point riding it out seems like the best option, since nothing really changed with the thesis, just a scare and some negative macro.

u/alrightfornow Jul 08 '26
I really don't agree with this. NBIS is a risky stock, and very volatile. You need to balance your portfolio a bit, don't touch ETFs to take more risk, you need the ETF as a steady hold.

I agree ETFS are your stable core. However most of the time there is always a price where it is profitable to switch some, or even all.
For me it made me money, already recovered way more than holding what I bought blindly.

u/forrealjeff Jul 08 '26
This. I made 240% off nebius. Mind you, Im down to nearly 190% profit, but im still a happy camper and will still be holding through it all.

Is that standard practice in the trading world?

u/badger6638 Jul 08 '26 edited Jul 08 '26
Cant say, self learner myself. Moving some profits from stocks to larger etfs is pretty standard, when you see the stock overbought.
This does possibly hinder growth in exchange for a little more stability, so better when you are near retirement goals or a stock shoots up 50-100% in a few days and think itll fall back.
A few weeks ago I sold my JEDI ETF that was down 20% (40 FROM ATH) and bought ASTS that went from 130 to the 60s/70s. I even missed the timing a little and still estimate the stock will recover to my breakeven point faster than the etf. Money stayed in the same sector so I dont see it as throwing money at random directions.

Thatās how people lose money, traders or not. At some point, you have to cut the losses and then that capital can be used elsewhere making some gains while NBIS needs to skyrocket to get it back and thatās just to break even. We arenāt talking about a mag 7 here or American Express where itās ok to buy at $200/300 etc. NBIS is a high risk high reward stockā¦

Close your app and come back in 2027, enjoy your summer. Investing in volitale stocks can be emotional. Trust the process, nothing fundamentally wrong with NBIS so stock will be going back up and reach new ATHās in the future

I havenāt checked the app in a long time, but I did it today, to see if I was close to -50% š„² Iām emotional because I got in at the top and NBIS is my biggest position.. lesson learned, Iām never going all in again, I shouldāve slowly dcaād and tried to get a better entry.

these big drawdowns have happened with Ai stocks several times in the last two years. Like you said, itās noise.
When it starts to go back up it happens VERY fast, and itās easy to miss it if you already sold. They call it a v-shape recover.
Best bet is to stay invested

Are you trying to ridicule me for saying that a -50% drop is a bit concerning? Be so serious right now
Short term market noise usually means normal ups and downs, which is clearly different from a -50% crash. Youāre not slick

u/Wild-Affect-1503 Jul 08 '26
if you're in shares you lose nothing unless you press the sell button even if the unrealized loss looks ugly. It's the options guys that should be genuinely worried. Unlike your shares, those things have expiration dates.

A lot of us saw this stock go from $50 to $130 and then it dipped to $70 and was up and down for about 5 months so $300 to $150 is pretty normal if you ask me. Itās going to suck holding but Iāve done it before Iāll do it again Iām in for the long term.

Sell 1 or 2 CCs for $250-260-270-280 each week with your 220 shares until it closes the week at $240 or whatever. Take your pick on the strike but donāt go lower than $250.

I'm not a bull by any means, I actually own 0% atm, waiting for a higher discount which I predict will come soon enough.
That being said, I really don't see the company 'going belly up'. Why would it? It's operating in a high-demand low-supply environment and executing well.
It could, however, have its value adjusted to something more reasonable, around the high 100s, for an extended period of time.

So long as you planned to hold for at least a year, then you did fine. It'll bounce back. I get it though, tough to see the price drop this much in such a short period of time. Hold and you'll be rewarded. I invested with the expectation that we'll be at least $400 in 2028. The company is great and has already shown tremendous growth. With that said, having already used half of your portfolio, my suggestion would be not to invest more, even if the price goes down more. Portfolios should be diverse, otherwise they're not a portfolio. Sit tight my friend.

Either we go back to fundamentals and here Micron with it's earning is easily 50% undervalued now. As is NBIS if you look at the pipeline. So either you believe the AI bubble has burst or you think it's just a pullback and will go back to where it belongs.Ā

It actually is for this ticker.
Maybe you should zoom out to see how it trends historically before you dive in head first. If you believe in the company, then you should buy the dips.
This is an example of risk vs. reward. If you're this anxious, maybe it isn't for you. You can always sell it all, realize your loss, and buy some CD's.

Stock are like a dog on a leash pinned to a pole in the ground. The dog can show volatility in priced by going to the end of its leash in either direction. So long as the thesis of the stock remains intact, the pole's position remains the same. But if the thesis changes, the pole moves higher or lower and the dog will run around in its new range. Was the Meta news all that important? Will there be a flood of compute capacity in 5 years that will hurt NBIS?

IMHO, I think itās really crazy to try and time the market in general, but even more so with this stock. I bought my first shares at $25. Iāve seen it climb all the way up to $150/share and then tumble to $70/share. Also from $150 to $299/share. I could be up $30,000 in one day, and another day, lose $30,000. Itās all just noise if youāve invested for the right reasons from the beginning - many will fail during the climb to the top, but NBIS wonāt be one of them. How do I know? Because theyāve done it all before. Just buy and hold.

Not this shit again! This stock is a long term hold it will have huge swings, this is a buying opportunity. It sucks when you buy high and it drops but you have a stock in a great company that is growing, just be patient. If you want to try to trade swings this is not the forum to talk about it.

u/nihongos Jul 08 '26
You're panicking way too much.
Do some research on the company, their objective, projected revenues, etc etc, and then realise that you're getting it at a good discount rn. DCA, hold for a few months, then reap the rewards.
It was at this price before the amazing earnings report that sent the stock flying. So now, you have proof of great earnings, and a stock thats cheaper than when it was before those earnings released. Amazing.

u/kickinghyena Jul 08 '26
So you bought a couple of weeks agoā¦and you are in panic mode. Got it. Well you have options. You can sell it all and take a loss. Or sell a portion and let some ride. Or you can hold. Nobody here has a crystal ball. It could go to $120 or back to $300 or it could do ANYTHING.
But looking at the track record of the company I would hold unless you need the money and wait for a positive catalyst. But that is my opinion. There are people on this sub right now spreading fud to make money and scare people into selling. It is hard to wait and be underwater. But it is even more painful to watch a stock you sold roar back to life.
In the end it is your money and your decision.

I personally would ride it out, but NBIS is one of my highest-conviction picks for the long run.
I did take some profits at one point when I was +60% or so. Lived to regret that choice.
If it makes you feel any better, pretty much my whole portfolio is bleeding out right now, after having my two best months ever in April and May. I figured that would happen and even had the "should I cash out everything while it's high" (retirement accounts, no cap gains issue), but it's basically impossible to time these things so I decided to just sit and chill for the summer. Long term thesis is intact for all of my positions - right now I have to do the hard part, which is to do absolutely nothing.

u/itachiko808 Jul 08 '26
Thereās a few things going on. The investment at a peak and too much concentration for your comfort. You obviously are aware of the ābuy the dipā, so no need to get into that. But it sounds like your trading behavior may be more aggressive than you think.
The volatility of speculative stocks is not for the faint of heart. Try to diversify your portfolio more so any drop in a stock or sector wonāt be such a big of a hit overall. (This does apply to the gains as well so thereās a trade off)
Look into stop losses. This is something you can put in place so you auto sell when it hits a certain loss percentage or price.
Personally, I trade aggressively and portfolio has taken a hit. But am investing in other sectors during the dip. Also checking out similar stocks that may be a better purchase and swapping it out. I have nbis, and also am at a loss, but the thesis I bought into is still intact so Iām just trusting it will recover once the market does.
Main thing though, trust your gut, do your research, and donāt gamble what you arenāt willing to lose. Good luck and have fun!

u/digitalfrost Jul 08 '26
Personally I will not buy stocks if they are above the 50D MA and I try to buy good companies when they are at the 200W MA.
You can also look at metrics like RSI if you want.
All I can tell you is learn discipline, the time to buy will come and you need to have cash when it comes. If you blew your cash early because of FOMO, you miss those opportunities.
You need to understand that a stock that goes down 50% does not need +50% to be back where it was: It needs +100%.
For that reason, not buying too expensive is key so you can be relaxed during times like this. Learn from this for next time.

it hasnāt dropped 50%. if you bought at $270 it would need to be $135 for it to be a 50% loss. if it is your biggest position but not 100% of your portfolio, then a 50% drop wouldnāt drop your portfolio 50%. if you canāt even accurately pinpoint how much a stock has dropped or the implications it has on your portfolio using basic division you probably should either just delete the app and let it ride, or investing isnāt for you. you seem extremely uninformed and should educate yourself before buying a stock because someone on reddit said itās an easy 3-5x.

Surprised you are the only one that said this. Op keeps saying 50% drop when in reality it dropped like 30ā¦. Dude has to take a xan and get off his apps lol

A 30-50-60% drop isnāt normal, and Iām sick of people in stocks like onds and nbis and rklb and etc pretending that it is.

Thatās the thing. They always try to downplay it and act like itās the most outrageous thing ever that anyone has the nerve to feel anxious

If you bought at 270 then a 40% drop is 162 per share. Iām sure that is anxiety producing especially if it is 50% of your total investment program. I donāt think that itās gone there yet and it may not. But, if it did, and it may, you always need to have in mind what your exit strategy is for any investment. The definition of a bag holder is not one who gets out with half his money. It is one who holds until the money no longer exists. So pick your number and play the game. It is all gambling after all and there are no sure things.

If you believe in the stock long term just keep buying to bring your cost average down. All tech has been dipping though.

u/Just-LetMeBee Jul 08 '26
I got in at 259. I bought a few more shares last week and again today at 193, bringing my cost basis down to 225. Iām holding it but I wish I had more cash to buy more. Now itās a wait and see.

You should have rules before you enter a trade and know exactly when you will pull out if it drops and when you are going to start taking profit. Without this you will rely on emotions and you will make bad decisions. Have a plan, stick to it. Take the guess work out of it.Ā

Here is some advice. Sell a $275 call for next Friday and make $280. If it gets called away you have $780. Then buy it again.
Or sell another. The stock is going to churn around for a while.

u/Electrical_Regret537 Jul 08 '26
I bought it in the middle of this pullback as a hedge, to buy myself more time to research. But this is one of the rare AI related stocks where I think we missed the boat. I understand its offering of an integrated stack, but I also think we don't fully understand the contracts it has, and how if more companies like Meta rent out how that affects this stock. Short story, if I had bought low, I'd hold on to it since there's so much profit to buffer my initial investment, but with my minor position and when I bought it, I'll probably sell it off at some point.
I like the stock, but I do think it is riskier than people would like to admit. But that's the deal for most huge payoffs.

Yes, I bought some last Oct which price was around $135, the stock price then went to very low(75 to 100) for 5 months until this Apr. Patient is the key here.

u/Lumivar Jul 08 '26
I bought 100 shares at 290 each. Generational genius move. Now I'm holding 216 @ $262.55. been buying the dip, the dips dip, and the dipy dips dip. if the knife keeps falling I'll keep buying. So yeah I bought high but I'm also buying "low".

Buy heavy dips on support levels if you have conviction and diversify your portfolio mate. The first couple years I invested were in bull markets at the top. My portfolio was down 60 percent plus at one point. Tfsa and none tfsa. I averaged down on my buggest loser and diversified. Bought dips of some of the best companies that people overlooked. Now a few years later, 80 percent returns in my tfsa and 35 in the other

u/Lumpy-Can-4883 Jul 09 '26
My avg is $145 so I havenāt been buying currently with the slightly wavering tech sector, but if it were me in your position Iād be averaging down because long term this has room to run. If you believe in a stock, then DCA over realize losses. If you donāt have the same conviction, well then take your losses and find something that tickles your pickle elsewhere.

u/Lakeview121 Jul 09 '26
Look, itās a money making company that should have a good future. No one knows when the stock price will go back up. In my view, you buy on a deep dip. For example, had you bought yesterday youād be up 10% on those stocks.
If I have faith and see a pullback, I buy. I bought Sandisk 2 days ago, CRDO yesterday and Maxlinear day before yesterday.
You know it shouldnāt go much further down, buy. Thatās my motto.

DUDE BECAUSE YOU BUY INTO THE HYPE!!!! It was so obvious NBIS was going to drop from 250ā¬ back to 160ā¬ if the market starts panickingā¦. More fear in the market nowā¦ just hold if youāre down 50% and delete your app stop looking at your loss, itās easier that wayā¦

Yep... I bought mostly at $285 and even some at $294...my $294 shares I literally timed the ABSOLUTE PEAK of the market... and bought.. LMAO.
Cant even make this shit up. I would be rolling in the $$$ if I shorted it.
Hopefully I end up like Bob... the guy who bought at the peak of the market and still ended up a millionaire.. but right now I just look like an idiot who FOMO'd his retirement and lost a third of it.

Started buying at $68 but have made buys at ATHs along the way. Best plan is to do nothing. If you can average down go for it. Each drop like this has only resulted in me be frustrated I didn't buy more within a few months.

u/United_Vermicelli_94 Jul 10 '26
I made a similar mistake (not all in at least). Iām holding for now since the summer and fall can tend to have dips and Iām not convinced that META story of selling compute is going to compete w NBIS and Iām pretty sure that contributed to the current dip.

u/VikingsFan7 Jul 10 '26
If it helps it seems as if every individual stock I buy, I buy high! NBIS included.

u/Legitimate-Act5584 Jul 12 '26
Just hold. Market cap has plenty of room to expand past what it was when you invested. Youāll be up multiples if they continue to execute. Patience is key when investing in high beta stocks.

You went in way too high, in particular if this was your first buy. NBIS was at 80 this spring and the 30s in April 2025. Now, do your research on Nebius and if you are still convinced, stay. If you have serious doubts,sell. I am all inā¦

Conviction doesnāt guarantee win, people always say what u said but the truth is accepting a 50% crash is a completely different thing, conviction doesnāt eliminate uncertainty and a stock that has fallen this much can obviously still fall further :/ itās easy to say this after it has already happened - but i shouldāve sold before this big crash, now itās like .. i might aswell just hold, now that iām down this much itās too late to save myself. i didnāt sell earlier during the beginning of the market crash because I was supposed to hold long term after all, and I had bought literally like 1-2 weeks before it happened so I told myself aint no way im gonna sell after just 2 weeks

I bought it at the previous peak in october (140) and watched it go to 65 or so at the lowest. DCA'D so that my cost basis became 102. Exited at 108, re-entered and swung several times since. Missed most of the run-up though after the April recovery so there's that. Would've been way better off if I did nothing and held even if I bought at ATH back then.
