Favorite stocks?

Looking to start my own portfolio (amateur investor)

What's your favorite platform to trade stocks on?

What are some interesting names you've been looking at recently?

What's your investing style?

Thought it would be fun to discuss - please don't hijack this thread with meme stocks!

Names I’m looking at: RBLX, AMAT, AMSL, ADSK,INTU

Style: GARP (Growth at a reasonable price)

Holding time period of 6 months - 2 years although would ideally like to hold forever if I can.

Target IRR: 15%

My advice would be to focus on a concentrated portfolio of industries/sectors you know really well then diversify if your focusing on wealth appreciation.
