In 2023, my investment performance was a rollercoaster ride, but I managed to recover my losses and turn a profit. Here's a brief overview: - Rate of return: After a 30% loss in 2022, I successfully recovered and earned enough profits in 2023 to offset my losses. My rate of return for the year stands at around 34%. - Top gains: Investments in NVDA, TSLA, MSFT, and REITs performed exceptionally well.

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$  $TQQQ 20251107 100.0 PUT$  When I first heard about options trading, I remember thinking it was something reserved for Wall Street professionals — the kind who stared at six screens and spoke in numbers faster than words. Every forum post or YouTube video seemed to make it sound “too risky,” “too complicated,” or “only for experts.” So for a while, I stayed away. But curiosity got the better of me.

It wasn’t overnight; it took me a good two months of studying, watching tutorials, and paper-trading before things

NVIDIA’s stock (NVDA) has recently experienced significant volatility, primarily due to developments in the artificial intelligence (AI) sector. A notable factor was the emergence of DeepSeek, a Chinese AI startup, which announced a major breakthrough that could potentially disrupt the AI landscape. This announcement led to a 17% decline in NVIDIA’s stock, erasing nearly $600 billion in market value. As of January 29, 2025, NVDA is trading at approximately $128.99. Technical analysis indicates that the stock is currently situated between a support level at $134 and a resistance level at $149. A decisive move beyond either of these levels could signal the stock’s future direction. Given the recent price movements, it’s essential to monitor key support and resistance levels. The stock has su

$Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$   YES YES YES BOIZ... keep this PLTR as long as we can.  Why one might invest (bull case) Here are several arguments in favour of considering PLTR: (A) Large & growing addressable market • The enterprises/governments are increasingly working with big data, AI, analytics, cyber/defence.
