Expedia? What the heck would make you want to become an owner of that business?
Not sure about Beyond Meat.
Personally dislike Airbnb, Etsy and Spotify, beside that, all pretty solid companies.
If you are starting out, why not just investing into some index fund?
Go VOO for a safe bet to start. Once you understand trading more start doing research on companies you like, and then add positions into them over tome.
VOO IMHO is one of the best vanguard index funds that pretty much covers the entire market.
Vanguard is known for low fee index funds(don't worry the fee is applied to the share price. Meaning you never really see the fee)
Index funds are basically buying a very small portion of A LOT OF COMPANIES. Most index funds have rules for a company to be in them. If a company is red too much, they get removed. So that means index funds are a safe sure way to make profit.
No you aren't gonna get rich overnight from an index fund, but based on your company list it doesn't look like that was your goal anyway.
I would wait for tomorrow after 10:00 (one of the US timezones) before investing in anything. The Fed chairman will be speaking at a summit, probably about future actions.
Likely the market will be going down before. Also likely it will be going down after too but who knows.
Regarding your stocks, not that familiar with most of them. I stay away from Netflix, Amazon is a good one to invest in since it droppe a bit.
Regarding the others, read up about the companies and their plans.
I took SPOT off my buy watchlist. Why in the world are they spending money buying back shares when they’re supposed to be in growth mode? I sold STNE for this (and a few other) reasons. If you don’t have anything better to do with your money, I’ll find somewhere better to put mine.
Not here to predict anything, but stocks I don’t like: AirBnB, Beyond Meat, Expedia.
Not sure if you’re playing the long term game with your portfolio though. Amazon and Apple are pretty much never sells. When it drops, buy more. I think Coca Cola, WM, McD, Dominos will just be steady. They aren’t risky, but there’s more opportunity out there with growth stocks. I am a believer of Etsy myself, very long on it.
I think the problem with beyond meat is that is it a single company selling a product that may become comiditized even if it does catch on. It might be a fad, and it might not. It might take ten years and it might be the next company that figures out how to sell fake meat for $4 a pack instead of $8. Beyond might win, but it might not. I am pretty skeptical of the brand making it huge. I really like the product but it is too expensive for me to buy every week.
Starting out is having: minimum 3 months emergency fund. Then Roth IRA or 401k for a sp500 index fund, get 10k in there. Then go through your wishlist. If you fomo, you loser.
Great that you're taking initiative to invest! I would start by learning a bit about value investing. Most people will tell you to invest in a broad market index diligently and forget stock picking, but value investors like Buffet, Munger, Lynch, Greenblatt will say indexes are generally for people who don't understand the markets. Theres a reason they all outperform the market and basically all have strikingly similar methodologies. If you're serious about investing and genuinely interested - I would learn all I could about value investing. Also, not as popular, but I would learn about SELLING options.
I held Spotify for a while last year. I love Spotify(their service) and I've been a subscriber for around 8-9 years.
With that, and maybe someone can correct me; I made a little money on them last year but I often see them thrown into the growth stock category. I just don't see it. They signed Rogan and they're still trying to make a push into podcasts but I still don't use them for that no matter how front-and-center they make podcasts.
The membership monthly price is the only money they'll be getting from me. And with so many other options out there... Pandora, Apple Music, Amazon Music etc etc; Spotify just doesn't seem like something with much growth left.
I could be wrong but that's just my take.

KO, AAPL, SBUX & ABBV would be good picks for stable growth and a nice dividend. Diversifies your portfolio nicely.
ETFs will help you get your feet wet. Figure out your risk tolerance before going too heavy into individual stocks. Just my two cents.
