This week, the key pricing driver across major asset classes shifted from geopolitical risk premiums to a US rates shock. Oil prices retreated sharply from their mid-month peak as concerns over Middle East supply disruptions eased. Meanwhile, the 10-year US Treasury yield rose 30 basis points over the week to 5.26%, its highest level since June 2007. Falling oil prices failed to halt the rise in long-term yields, suggesting that term premiums and Treasury supply pressures had become the main drivers. As a result, equities, industrial metals and precious metals came under broad pressure.  $黃金主連 2612(GCmain)$ $微黃金2612(MGC2612)$

After selling a few Puts, you may start running into the same dilemma. At first, you may be worried about getting assigned, so you choose a strike price further away from the current share price. After doing this a few times, however, you may start thinking: “I’ve set aside so much capital, but I’m only collecting this amount of premium each month. Is it too little?” So you move the strike price closer. The premium goes up, but another concern appears: “What if the share price really drops?” This is exactly what advanced Short Put management is about: how much additional risk are you taking on for the extra premium you collect? For the same stock, where should you set the strike price? When IV is high, is it worth opening a position? If you have already earned most of the premium, should y

The much-anticipated Federal Reserve decision came and went last week, with the 25-basis-point move ultimately causing little market disruption. Following the intraday and weekly tug-of-war between bulls and bears, the short-term outlook has become broadly clear: risk assets are likely to maintain their current choppy upward trend over the next one to two months. Whether it is gold, where our order narrowly missed being filled by just a few dollars, or U.S. equity indices, which remain near their highs, pullbacks should continue to offer opportunities to buy in the near term. $Gold - main 2612(GCmain)$ $E-Micro Gold - Dec 2026(MGC2612)$

$Heico(HEI)$ reports fiscal third-quarter results after the August 25 close. The company has built one of the market’s most successful aerospace-compounding models by acquiring specialised component makers and selling lower-cost replacement parts into a growing installed aircraft base. Its next report must show that organic demand—not only acquisitions—continues supporting that premium valuation. HEICO’s fiscal second quarter, ended April 30 and reported May 27, was exceptional. Net sales increased 25%, consolidated organic sales grew more than 18%, operating income rose 41% and net income advanced 49% to a record $233.8 million, or $1.66 per diluted share. HEICO’s official press-release archive provides the reported figures. The bullish thesis res

$Zoom(ZM)$ reports fiscal second-quarter results after the August 25 close. The company is no longer valued as a pandemic-era video-conferencing disruptor. Its next phase depends on turning Zoom Phone, Contact Center, Workplace and AI Companion into an integrated communications platform that can grow faster than basic meetings. For the first fiscal quarter, ended April 30 and reported May 21, revenue increased 5.5% to $1.239 billion. Enterprise revenue grew faster than the company total, while large customers contributing more than $100,000 of trailing-12-month revenue also increased. Zoom’s official quarterly-results page contains the release, presentation and filing. The bullish thesis is that Zoom already sits inside millions of daily business in
