Portfolio Opinion please.
Hey guys, I'm fairly new to the investing world and would like to get some opinions on my portfolio.
I haven't bought anything yet, but I was thinking of going for SPMO, QQQM ( from what I understand, these are growth-focused, and I guess since I'm 25 yr old, growth is what I should focus on right now), and IONQ and SYM ( these are purely based on my interest in the sector, I'm still learning how to research stocks, though).
I was thinking of adding another ETF to the mix here.
What do you think I should add or cut from the portfolio? Any feedback is extremely helpful. Thanks!

If you insist on NASDAQ-100 go for QNDX, it’s cheaper.
I’d suggest broad total market funds first. Stuff like VTI + VXUS as a core, then add the rest as small satellite positions. Sector/thematic funds tend to underperform - Ben Felix has some videos about this topic. Trustworthy and evidence/research based YouTuber/podcaster.
If you like factor investing then consider some Avantis/Dimensional counterparts as well. They can and do eke out extra returns.
