So I’m kind of new to investments. Sadly starting late but have some government pension - for this year I maxed my 401k, have my RSUs and I have saved some money that I want to buy stocks with. I’m ok to hold for a bit, what should I invest in? Also I use fidelity.

I also literally just started contributing to my 401K so I’m also late in the game for that too.
