To The Moon

Bearish Volume Divergence is a warning sign for traders. For example, during June 2023 to August 2023, $Apple(AAPL)$ price continued climbing to new highs, but the buying volume steadily declined, forming lower highs. This signal weakening momentum. Within a month, there was a gap-down and a sharp sell-off—confirming that the earlier volume warnings were valid. Another bearish signal is Selling Climax (Capitulation). Using $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ as example, it experienced a violent decline accompanied by big volume spikes during the onset of COVID market crash in March 2020.

The gift I’m giving this Christmas is $Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$ . I bought it about four years ago, when market sentiment was mixed and many still saw it as just a government-focused data company. What convinced me was its strong moat in data analytics, long-term contracts, and the critical role its software plays for clients. I held through volatility as Palantir improved profitability, expanded commercial clients, and benefited from the AI adoption trend. As fundamentals strengthened, market recognition followed, and the position is now up roughly 300% over four years, making it one of my best long-term investments. I’m sharing PLTR as a gift because it reinforced the importance of patience and conviction. Understanding the business a

Nvidia and Groq: A Shortcut to SRAM Powered Inference The Christmas Eve Pivot On Dec. 24, the market was primed for a blockbuster: CNBC reported $NVIDIA(NVDA)$   was closing in on a $20B all-cash buyout of AI chip unicorn Groq. Hours later, the narrative flipped. The acquisition vanished, replaced by a surgical "licensing + hiring" deal. The Reality: Nvidia isn't buying Groq. Instead, they are absorbing Groq's founder Jonathan Ross, President Sunny Madra, and key technical staff. Groq remains an independent entity under new CEO Simon Edwards. The Strategy: The "Car Engine" ManeuverMake no mistake—the shape of this deal is the point.Licensing IP and poaching leadership is the corporate equivalent of taking t

If I have to choose the most likely 2026 outcome, I lean toward “nothing dramatic happens.” Markets have adapted to repeated shocks, and while AI should lift productivity, it’s unlikely to trigger either a 1999-style boom or a sudden collapse. Growth is more likely to stay decent but uneven, leading to gradual expectation resets. For equities, I expect modest new highs rather than a melt-up or crash. Valuations are high, but earnings, liquidity, and buybacks still provide support. A 50% drop in Nvidia $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ seems unlikely without a clear earnings shock; volatility and rotation feel like the more realistic path. On policy, the main risk is Fed hesitation, not extreme easing or hikes. Inflation may cool but remain sticky enough to cause

Current Market Context Recent trading saw the S&P 500 at yet another record high (~6927) as the traditional “Santa Claus rally” window began in the last trading days of December. Analysts link this to seasonal demand, lighter volumes, and cautious optimism around earnings and monetary policy expectations such as rate cuts.  What the Seasonal Patterns Suggest Santa Claus rally refers to the tendency for the S&P 500 to rise during the last five trading days of the year and the first two of January. Historically this pattern: Has seen positive returns in ~75 per cent of years since 1950. Generates average gains around 1.2–1.4 per cent over the seven-day window.  This is not a structural market driver but a seasonal statistical pattern, not a fundamental guarantee. The Januar

Gold at ~US$4,500 reflects an unusually powerful convergence of macro forces. Whether US$5,000 is reached in 2026 depends less on speculation and more on whether these drivers persist. Will gold hit US$5,000 in 2026? Plausible, but not guaranteed. A move to US$5,000 would require several conditions to remain aligned: Monetary policy: If the Fed delivers two cuts and real yields stay compressed, gold remains structurally supported. Geopolitics and fragmentation: Ongoing geopolitical risk and reserve diversification by central banks are long-duration tailwinds. Currency confidence: Persistent fiscal deficits and debt monetisation narratives favour gold as a store of value. However, upside is unlikely to be linear. A stronger US dollar, delayed cuts, or risk-on equity sentiment could trigger

Jim Reid’s provocation is useful precisely because markets have become conditioned to expect drama. When shock becomes the baseline, stability itself turns counterintuitive. My assessment for 2026, in order of likelihood: 1. U.S. equities hitting new highs This is the most probable. Earnings growth from productivity gains, AI-driven capex, and resilient balance sheets can still carry indices higher, even if returns are narrower and more uneven. New highs do not require euphoria, only persistence. 2. Gold breaking above US$5,000 Plausible, but conditional. It likely requires sustained real-rate compression, ongoing central bank buying, and geopolitical tension. A spike above US$5,000 may occur, but holding that level is a higher bar. 3. Repeated Fed policy reversals Less dramatic than it so

My pick for 2026: U.S. equities hitting new highs. Earnings resilience, AI-driven productivity gains, and strong balance sheets still favour a grind higher, even if leadership narrows and volatility rises. New highs do not require exuberance, only sustained cash flow growth. Gold above US$5,000 is plausible but conditional on sustained real-rate compression and geopolitical stress. It is more likely as a spike than a stable regime. Fed policy reversals may occur, but more as incremental recalibration than dramatic U-turns. An outright AI bubble burst looks least likely. A valuation reset or rotation is more realistic than a collapse. Ironically, the true surprise could be “nothing happens”. A year of modest growth and range-bound markets would wrongfoot both extremes. That said, my v

Historical data suggests that the market tends to continue its upward momentum in Jan' after a positive Dec'. Also a positive Jan also historically leads to above-average returns for the full year. Given the historical calendar effects, one might be tempted to consider going long. However, past performance is never a guarantee of future results. And now let us come to the golden dictum: DON'T TRY TO TIME THE MARKET. Timing the market is inherently risky, and a long-term, disciplined approach is always more effective than focusing solely on seasonal patterns. 

🌟🌟🌟Tim Cook recently bought more shares in $Nike(NKE)$ primarily to signal his strong confidence in Nike's current management and its ability to execute a turnaround plan for Nike.  This purchase served as a public endorsement during a challenging time for Nike's stock. The timing of this significant insider purchase was critical.  It came at a time after Nike's share price plunged 10% following disappointing earnings report that highlighted ongoing challenges with sales in China and margin pressures from tariffs. @Tiger_comments @TigerStars @Tiger_SG

Good to know : MSTR Jan2026! MSCI has not yet made a final decision on the exclusion of MicroStrategy (MSTR) from its indexes. The final decision is expected to be announced on January 15, 2026, and if the exclusion is confirmed, it would take effect in February 2026. The potential removal is due to a proposed rule change by MSCI, which is consulting on excluding companies whose digital asset holdings (like MicroStrategy's significant Bitcoin treasury) represent 50% or more of their total assets, arguing that such firms resemble investment funds rather than traditional operating companies. Key Insights Decision Timeline: The consultation period ends on December 31, 2025, with the final announcement on January 15, 2026. Impact: If excluded, passive funds tracking MSCI indexes would be force

🌟🌟🌟Will Gold hit USD5000 in 2026?  I believe it will.  Major financial institutions like JPMorgan, Bank of America have officially forecasted Gold prices to reach the USD 5000 mark by the end of 2026.  This is due to persistent central bank demand and expectations of US interest rate cuts. The best method for trading Gold depends on your time horizon and risk tolerance. As a small investor , my preferred method is physical gold backed ETFs as my time horizon is long term.  My favourite Gold ETF is $iShares Gold Trust(IAU)$ as it has the lowest expense ratio of 0.25 % compared to $SPDR Gold Shares(GLD)$ expense ratio of 0.50%. I am not into Gold Futures nor Leverage ETFs as the risks a

Peter Schiff, the gold guru and crypto critic, just dropped a bombshell warning on December 26, 2025, urging everyone to "prepare for a historic economic collapse" as the US dollar's dominance crumbles. In his latest post, Schiff paints a grim picture: "King dollar’s reign is coming to an end. Gold will take the throne as the primary central bank reserve asset. That means the U.S. dollar will crash against other fiat currencies, and America’s free ride on the global gravy train will end." This isn't new territory for Schiff – he's been sounding alarms on dollar debasement and Fed policies for years, predicting collapses tied to reckless spending and inflation spikes. Back in 2023, he called the unfolding financial crisis "inevitable" after COVID-era stimulus, and in 2024, he warned of a do
