My goal remains the same every year, to break even my loss. It had been a wild ride for 2024, the Red Sea getting deeper, and I hope I got a scuba tank to dive in and wait for 2025 miracle happens   

Year-End Reflection 2024 and Plans for 2025

Special thanks to @TigerTradingNotes for the invitation. I'm excited to share my experiences from the past year with all of you, and I hope we can witness my growth and hard work together. December 2024 marks two and a half years since I opened my account at Tiger Broken. As the year draws to a close, I would like to briefly look back on this year and share some of the gains I’ve made in trading: ROR (TYD): 47.01% ROR (2.4 years): 145.19% Sharpe Ratio: 1.07 Max Drawdown: -19.78% Self-Review Overall, I’m “fairly satisfied” with this result. As stated in my investment goal—“Aiming to outperform the NASDAQ”—the 47.01% return this year surpassed the Nasdaq’s 35.66% for the same period. While the market did not present the dramatic opportun

📉Pullback Starting: Time to Bottom or Sell Before the New Year?

The year-end market rally seems to have hit turbulence as U.S. stocks experienced a pullback during early trading on Monday. Investors now face a critical decision: buy the dip or lock in profits before the New Year? With S&P 500 (SPX) nearing the key psychological level of 6,000, the stakes have never been higher. Market Update: What’s Happening? 1. Pullback Signals Broad Market Decline: Major indices, including the Dow Jones and Nasdaq, saw declines of 1-2% as profit-taking emerged. Sector Weakness: Growth stocks, particularly in tech and energy, led the drop, while defensive sectors like utilities outperformed. 2. Analysts’ Take 2024 SPX Target: Analysts project SPX closing just above 6,000, driven by strong Q4 earnings and easing inflation. 2025 Pullback Forecast: Early 2025 may br

Alibaba in 2021: Is It Still a Good Stock Today? Hi Everyone, A VERY Happy 2025 to all of you! 🎉 As we step into a new year, I’d like to revisit one of the most talked-about investments in my portfolio—Alibaba. Today, I’ll share my analysis of this iconic Chinese company, often referred to as the “Amazon of China.” Over the years, I’ve been asked countless times: “Roy, why did you invest in Alibaba? Isn’t it risky to invest in a Chinese company? What about the potential for delisting?” In a previous post, I mentioned buying Alibaba stock in 2021, initially at around $220 per share, and averaging it down to $172 per share today. Am I still holding onto the stock? Yes. Am I selling it? No. While I don’t regret investing in Alibaba, one thing I do regret is buying it at a high valuation back

2024... 2024 has been a exhilarating ride if ups and downs... My best performing stock wold be Nvidia, SPY, SoFi and Tesla...they about more than 100% returns ... My main strategy is the auto investment feature in Tiger App. (Guys u should give it a try if u haven't). It is convenient, no need to monitor the markets, it just automatically buy your selected stocks (fractional shares also able to execute) with the set amount and frequency of your choice. I also subscribe to Tiger Vault auto sweep for the US dollar and Sg dollar funds which is very convenient if you trade in the US and Sg markets. It just automatically deduct/deposit the money when you trade...(Must have enough funds in the account) 2025... With 2024 behind us, now looking forward to another thri

I am not a active trader, as you may know from my total trade activity. On top of that, I probably invest less than most of you. My portfolio is only worth 21,000 ish AUD. I am gratiful that I have been investing since 2022, and so far I did ok. I hope y'all keep investing in 2025 and eventually become financially independent in the future.[Miser]  [Miser]
