My 2025 Market Journey: Gains Earned, Lessons Learned

Looking back, I would describe 2025 as a very fruitful year for me as an investor. Despite the sharp sell-off in April, U.S. equities rebounded strongly and went on to set new record highs. Volatility was high, but overall I am satisfied with my investment returns, especially considering how quickly market narratives shifted throughout the year. A large part of my performance came from AI-related names. Stocks like Palantir $Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$  , Nebius, and CoreWeave were major contributors, and they reinforced my belief that being positioned early in structural themes still matters. Even though sentiment toward AI cooled toward year-end, the gains achieved earlier in the cycle made a meaningful difference to my overall p

My stock to watch today is $SoFi Technologies Inc.(SOFI)$ , as markets remain steady and attention shifts to company-specific catalysts. SoFi stands out following its announcement of a U.S. dollar stablecoin issued by a federally chartered bank. The launch of SoFiUSD goes beyond a typical crypto headline. Fully backed by cash held at the Federal Reserve, it positions SoFi as a bridge between traditional banking and blockchain infrastructure, with potential use across payments, remittances, and its Galileo platform. From an investment perspective, this adds strategic optionality. As stablecoins move closer to mainstream adoption, SoFi’s early, regulated entry could become a competitive edge. While execution remains key, the move underscores SoFi’

I'm just doing what I do, buying stocks every week when I get paid. Learning everything I possibly can every day, and adding intel to spreadsheets. Today I was diving into $IREN Ltd(IREN)$, $PayPal(PYPL)$.  Not much uncovered on either but a little more color on both. With Iren it was their capped call capital raise that has them reporting at GAAP profit for Q4 of over $600 million, in paper profits. Capped call capital raises are totally mis reported. Commentators always throw up their hands crying wolf, screaming shareholder dilution. But they are so wrong.  I'll simplify, but Iren raised just over 1 billion issuing new shares, but used part of the money raised to basically buy calls. These ca

Micron Technology (MU) is capitalizing on record Artificial Intelligence (AI) demand and sustaining its rally with a sold-out 2026 order book, but future growth faces risks from competition and geopolitical tensions。。。 Like NVIDIA Corp (NVDA), MU is riding the AI surge, but it lacks a monopoly and must battle memory giants Samsung and SK Hynix for market share The supply-demand imbalance remains tight as AI memory uses triple the typical wafer capacity, but prices may stabilize as new supply enters the market in the coming years It is not too late to get on board memory stocks for those bullish on the long-term AI supercycle; investment in MU remains viable, though long-term prospects depend on navigating volatility, geopolitical risks, and intense competition, which could dampen growth pr

$S&P 500(.SPX)$ opened higher on Micron’s explosive earnings report, but quickly gave back some gains, as investors remain cautious ahead of the Bank of Japan’s rate decision on Friday. $Micron Technology(MU)$ itself jumped as much as 16% at the open before settling around +13%.

I'm leaning cautiously bullish as the Santa Rally window begins. Historically, the last five trading days of the year and the first two of the new year tend to favor the upside, and Friday's rebound felt like an early confirmation of that seasonal tailwind. With liquidity thinning and positioning lighter, even modestly positive sentiment can move prices faster than usual. That said, I'm not treating this as a "buy and forget" period. Year-end markets can be deceptive—moves can be sharp, but reversals can be just as quick. I'm staying disciplined, focusing on price action and momentum rather than big macro predictions. If the tape confirms strength, I'm happy to ride it; if not, I'll step aside quickly. Given the holiday mood and improving sentiment, my plan is to lean more into short-term,

OCBC Bank Shines Bright bought

🌟 OCBC Bank Shines Bright: Why It’s Up 3% and Why I’m Shifting from dollar averaging UOB to DBS and OCBC The Singapore banking landscape has been buzzing this week, and one clear winner emerged  — OCBC Bank. The share price rose by about 1%, catching the attention of investors who value both yield and growth. I’ll share why OCBC performed so well today, what’s driving its latest earnings momentum, and why I’ve made the strategic decision to move out of UOB and rotate into DBS and OCBC. ⸻ 💹 Market Rotation: Why OCBC Shares Are Gaining Momentum When I looked at today’s market, it became clear that funds are flowing toward quality. OCBC’s rise of around 1% isn’t just random market noise — it reflects a rotation of smart money. Investors are shifting from UOB, which recently reported disa

Blink fans 22 December Covered Call Strategy on NVDA

Why I Use Covered Calls Instead of Chasing Price On 22 December, my focus is not on predicting whether NVDA will explode higher or suddenly crash lower. My focus is on consistent, repeatable income while still participating in upside. That is why I use a covered call strategy, which requires me to already own the underlying stock. This is important to state upfront: A covered call can only be done if I own the stock. I am not speculating with naked options. I am not over-leveraging. I am simply monetising time and volatility on shares I already hold. My cost basis for NVDA is around $99.30. This gives me a strong foundation. From this position, I sell short-dated call options to generate income, reduce my effective cost, and let the market pay me for waiting. ⸻ What Is a Covered Call (In S

Hedging strategy for PLTR returning to high

Last Friday, the U.S. stock AI sector rebounded as a whole, and the sentiment picked up significantly. As one of the core targets of the highly elastic AI narrative,$Palantir Technologies Inc. (PLTR) $With a gain of more than 4% on the day, the share price is back above 190. This rebound is more reflected in the restoration of risk appetite and the return of funds at the sector level, rather than the new fundamental changes at the company level. In the context of highly crowded AI concepts and generally high valuations, such rebounds are often more likely to become a rise in sentiment in a volatile structure than the starting point of a new round of trend market.From the perspective of trend structure, PLTR has formed an obvious high and wide fluctua

Santa Claus, MSTR and the USD 85K Question: Can Bitcoin Avert a Festive Flop?

🌟🌟🌟Bitcoin is currently sliding down a slippery slope, trading around USD 86,522.  It is down significantly from its peak in October.  The Christmas lights are blinking red.  The market is jittery.  Can Bitcoin hold key support levels this week?  Or is a painful drop to USD 70k on the cards? In the midst of this volatility, the boldest player in the field, $Strategy(MSTR)$  CEO Michael Saylor is doubling down.  MSTR bought nearly USD 1 billion into Bitcoin for a 2nd consecutive week.  MSTR is continuing to accumulate as prices pulled back.  MSTR is betting the farm that this dip is just a speed bump on the road to glory.

REIT Watch - 10 S-REITs which garnered over S$1 billion in total retail net inflows in 2025

With seven trading days remaining in 2025, the Straits Times Index (STI) has delivered a year-to-date price return of 20.7% as at Dec 18, while Singapore REITs (S-REITs) have gained 9.0%. Including dividends, total returns for the STI and S-REITs reached 26.7% and 14.4% respectively – placing S-REITs on track for their strongest annual performance since 2019 as previously highlighted in this column.Half of this performance was achieved in Q3, driven by improved operating fundamentals across S-REIT sub-segments and a more conducive environment due to lower interest rates. The US Federal Reserve implemented three 25 basis-point rate cuts this year, with market analysts expecting two more reductions in 2026.In comparison, S-REITs have outperformed the FTSE EPRA Nareit Asia ex Japan Index’s 13

$Sun Silver Ltd(SS1.AU)$ A new all time high for Sun Silver. Just managed to break its previous high with a 14+% increase today. The obvious reason is silver price breaking its all time high yet again this morning in Australian trading hours... finally, not a correction in Australian timezone after setting its new high at last Friday US closing. It's a worthwhile celebration. 🎉 I had shared Sun Silver a while back when it was making its early move. I had bought it some time ago when the price of silver was correcting. As a firm believer of silver strength in this cycle, I have explored more junior miners that I could diversify into. Sun Silver happens to be one of them.
