2026 started with market rally and possibly could look forward to positive full year returns with so called January effect.

The 2026 Kickstart: Did the January Effect Just Hit Us?

🌟🌟🌟Happy First Trading Day of 2026! The market didn't just wake up this morning. It exploded out of bed, slammed a triple espresso and went for a sprint! We are seeing a classic high octane "January Effect" in full swing and Santa Rally continues. The tech rally everyone feared might fade in Q4 of 2025, is back with a vengeance. Nasdaq jumped a massive 1.3%. S&P500 climbed a solid 0.6%. Semiconductor stocks were on an absolute tear! $ASML Holding NV(ASML)$ and $Micron Technology(MU)$ both surged, the latter to an all time high! NVIDIA and Broadcom kept pace, climbing over 3% each.

2026 Explosive Open: Why ASML & Micron Are the New "Generals" (And Is It Too Late to Chase?) Happy New Year, Tigers! 🧧 If you blinked, you might have missed the entry. The first trading session of 2026 didn't just open; it erupted. While the headline shows the S&P 500 ($SPX) up a respectable 0.6% to 6,858, the real violence was in the Nasdaq ($IXIC), ripping 1.3% higher. But look closer: this wasn't a broad "everything rally." This was a precision strike into Semiconductor Infrastructure. With ASML and Micron ($MU) surging nearly 8% to All-Time Highs (ATHs) and Nvidia ($NVDA) tacking on another 3%, the market is sending a very loud signal about the theme for 2026. The question for this weekend is simple: Is this a genuine breakout, or a classic "January Effect" bull trap before ear

A strong opening to the year, and a very telling one. Market context Nasdaq Composite +1.3% and S&P 500 +0.6% signalled immediate risk-on sentiment. Semiconductors led decisively. ASML and Micron Technology pushed to all-time highs, while NVIDIA and Broadcom extended their leadership. Which stock hit a new high If I frame this from a portfolio construction perspective rather than personal holdings, ASML is the clearest example of a name that rewarded patience. Its new high reflects not momentum chasing, but structural scarcity in advanced chip manufacturing. That distinction matters. New highs driven by earnings visibility tend to persist longer than those driven purely by sentiment. Do I believe in the January effect I believe in flows, not folklore.

$S&P 500(.SPX)$ $NASDAQ(.IXIC)$ The new year blasts in with a bang as chip giants flex their muscles on Wall Street's opening act! 🌟 While broader markets tiptoe forward, semiconductors are stealing the spotlight, powering through with impressive gains that have investors buzzing. ASML skyrocketed nearly 9% to shatter its all-time high, while Micron blasted up over 10% to claim its own record peak. 😎 Nvidia chipped in with a solid 1.3% lift, and Broadcom added a modest 0.4% – proving the AI hunger isn't fading anytime soon.

S&P 500 Ushers in 2026 with a Cautious Rally, Powered by Semiconductor Surge

The dawn of 2026 brought a flicker of optimism to Wall Street as U.S. stock markets kicked off the new year with modest gains, defying the sluggish first-day trends of recent years. On January 2, the first trading day of the year, the S&P 500 managed to eke out a small advance, closing up 0.19% at 6,858.47 points after touching intraday highs that suggested a more robust 0.7% rise earlier in the session. The Nasdaq Composite, meanwhile, flirted with stronger momentum, surging as much as 1.5% intraday—but ultimately dipped 0.03% to end at 23,235.63. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fared better, climbing 0.66% to 48,382.39, providing a steady anchor amid the volatility. This performance marks a subtle reversal from the pattern of the past three years, where the S&P 500 started

Last year, I learnt a new skill. I attended the recent Tiger Webinar on stock/option investment. One of the speakers (Terence, if my memory serves me right), shared about 0DTE option strategy. This new year, I put this skill into real practice. My first trade of 2026 was a SPY 0DTE Call. I used 1-minute candle stick chart to decide on the entry and exit. It's closed shortly after its open and yielded positive results. Not a big win but feeling happy nevertheless [Miser] ! Thanks to Tiger platform for organising the webinar. Happy New Year to all Tigers and may all have profitable investment for 2026.

2026: What’s Your First Trade?

It’s still early in 2026—barely a few days in—and my portfolio has been quiet. No new stocks, no new ETFs, no sudden bursts of conviction. Just me watching the market move without me. Then today, I submitted a buy order for SOXS. Nothing dramatic happened after that. The order is still sitting there, waiting, like a question mark I’ve placed into the market. I set a limit price of $2.68 per share. Whether the price ever gets there is out of my control now. If it fills, it fills. If it doesn’t, so be it. SOXS, of course, is an inverse ETF. It says a lot about my current mindset. I’m bearish on 2026—or at least, I feel bearish. That feeling has been with me for a while now. The ironic part is that I’m often wrong when I feel most certain. History hasn’t exactly been kind to my market pessimi

Buying opportunity for Broadening Rally, Not Start of Collapse.

The $S&P 500(.SPX)$ experienced a modest pullback and soft finish to 2025, with a roughly 0.7% drop on the final trading day (December 31, 2025) amidst light volume, we need to look at the dip as a healthy reset rather than a bursting bubble, with some expectations for continued growth and broadening market leadership into 2026 despite some year-end volatility in mega-cap tech. The late-December pullback is better interpreted as a positional reset than a structural warning—however, it does carry information about how 2026 is likely to unfold rather than whether it will be positive. In this article, I would like to share the structured way to think about the two competing interpretations. Why the Late-2025 Dip Looks Like a Healthy Reset Several

1. Strategists remain broadly constructive on equities for 2026 A current Bloomberg survey of 21 strategists shows no bearish forecasts for the S&P 500. They foresee roughly a 9 per cent average gain in 2026, constituting a rare fourth consecutive year of gains if realised. Previously cautious institutions, including JPMorgan, have moved fully to a bullish stance with a year-end 2026 target near 7 500 on the S&P 500. None of the surveyed strategists expect a material downward trend next year, though they do acknowledge various risks at the margin. 2. Recent pullbacks tend to be shallow and typical of strong uptrends Analysts note that pullbacks in 2025 have generally been modest, offering only shallow “buy the dip” opportunities rather than deep corrections.

Iy really means nothing if the S&P fell on Monday. Days are irrelevant, so are weeks, even months. And let's face it, most are on holiday atm so everything that happens will be based on low volumes. So don't worry bout a thing. I invest in companies with a 1 to 3 year outlook Minimum. to make meaningful predictions beyond that timeframe is pure conjecture. Example, 10 years from now will $McDonald's(MCD)$ still be the world's biggest burger maker? Well actually McDonalds doesn't make burgers. It owns property and collects franchise fees from franchises that make burgers. So will they be doing that in ten years from now, or will they bulldoze all their restaurants and build high rise apartments and hotels. I know I'm being
