Those opportunities still exist today but you have to think long term, 10 years.
*I owned AMD in 2004 sold at around the peak when Opteron was a thing. That's what being short sighted gets you.

You are aware that statiscally this isn’t a repeatable phenomenon. No one has shown them selves to consistently beat the market more than random chance would allow. Survivorship bias is what you are mistaking for expertise.
And higher returns based on accepting higher downside risk.
Its great you hit once but make sure you are still well diversified as now you have significantly more to lose.
