It is a trick multiple choice... @Tiger_Earnings The choice of a sharp drop is below -5%, which is lower than red!? Anyway, I decide that I will be wrong with my target end price anyway even if I get the earnings expectation right... I have always proven wrong so far for all prediction quiz conducted by ๐Ÿฏ [Facepalm] [Spurting] I have picked RED, so if you pick anything else, you stand a chance [Tongue] TSMC did well with its results. I would expect Netflix to do well too, however market closing price is a different matter altogether. Just look at Tesla, bad result but a rumour that Elon Musk is leaving DOGE sent its closing price up by a lot!? These days, price fluctuations are the norm. Results are not the only determinant.

Tariff war? What now? Rare earth maybe the key

Hate him, love him... Donald Trump is by far the most entertaining President in my living memory.Did the tariff war really start? Or did it end before it can takeoff in full flight?Now, I'm confused... True, stock markets all around the ๐ŸŒŽ crashed. It appears that US and China are the only countries in this world then (apart from Canada and Mexico of course since they have a headstart). Remember, Donald Trump mentioned there's no exemption? Those words simply spiralled out of control... Exemption here... Wait a minute, exemption for that too. Perhaps...Tariff war has really started... Before Donald Trump and US are ready for it! Strange if you ask me. China has prepared for years for Donald Trump's homecoming, given the prior experience in his first term. Why would Donald Trump be conf

A Few Good Men (Women) ๐Ÿ˜œ

Gold, silver and their respective mining bigwigs, shorts in Nasdaq and tech index or big tech like Nvidia or Tesla, VIX, rare earth miners. What do we get? Yup, as the title suggested, a few good men (or women)! They are the winners in the latest tariff war, between Donald Trump and the rest of the world. People might be tempted to lump Trump with US, since he's the current American President. US is made up of hundreds of millions of people. Too bad those who had voted did what they chose to do, the rest just suffered along... Is this the so-called famous liberation (yup, punt intended). Freedom of speech, freedom to choose or not choose, freedom to ruin US and freedom to send USD down the drain... That's freedom... Social, economical, mental. Out of the list above, gold is on the tear...

$Direxion Daily Semiconductors Bear 3x Shares(SOXS)$  Trust Donald Trump? Nah... not me... if you think a temporary pause will do and an exemption of tech goods will do Nasdaq and semiconductors good, think again. You might not want to trust him enough to take the risk. Do you know how Donald Trump behaves? We have all seen it all, those egoistic small time bullies. Using their parents' influence to throw their weights around. Yes, those with lots of cheerleading lackeys, running off at the first sign of trouble. Do I trust them? Make a guess... why should I? And why should anyone of you? You might not like the China Chinese way. I admit they have their own way with dealing with issues, but come on, in the face

There's still a lot of uncertainty going forward... I will be observing 2 more sessions before casting my votes, given things are still very much fluid, more twists and turns are expected any day. Given that Nasdaq is still very much in its downtrend, I am not expecting much of a grand recovery performance from it. Although Donald Trump seemingly looms large in terms of market performance, ignoring him and focusing on the big picture is the way to go. He might be able to influence short term movement with his occasional 'messaging', he is as vulnerable as any of us in 'calling' the shots. Although the temporary suspension of tariffs here and there would do the market good, fundamentals still don't change. In fact, US is now weaker than when Donald Trump started his 'war cry'... or should I

Be careful what you wish for!

Have you ever wished to buy a super growing company like Nvidia before the price runs up? Maybe Palantir?  Have you ever wished for a pro-biz US President? Have you ever wished that when you run out of money ๐Ÿ’ฐ, you can simply take from others without being punished? They are here, all here! Yes, all at once... In our face! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ญ Don't you feel it? Now that they are all here, are you overjoyed? You are supposed to feel that, or so Donald Trump thought so... When the stock market crash occurs, have you then thought of a saviour (some sorts, any sorts in fact) to push them back up?  Ahhhhhh... Nice! It's also here! What have you been doing all these times? From crash to rebound?  Did you scoop in when the crash arrived? ๐Ÿค” Or were you so badly wounded with your blood all around the

Safe haven from Tariffs war - Gold vs Silver

It's perhaps not the hottest topic right now, however I had wanted to write โœ๏ธ this topic for some time. I just couldn't find an appropriate time to illustrate my point, until now... Precious metals group: gold, silver comes immediately to mind. Of course, there are also platinum and palladium, rhodium, iridium, etc. Among these, gold, silver, platinum and palladium are readily tradable, with gold and silver being the most popular. Many people lump gold and silver together. However in reality, they can't be more different. Let me explain. Firstly, I will not visit them based on their chemical or physical properties. Both gold and silver are used as an inflation hedge and a store of value. They are the old time favourite of retailers and institutional buyers alike since they

On a separate note, Singapore does have a role to play against the big bully, Donald Trump. While it may be true that Singapore is too small to stand alone and free trade is the lifeblood of Singapore's economy, giving in to bully, they will come back for more! It's not easy, but if Singapore can do what it does best to provide a platform for negotiation and cooperation between East and West (excludes US), Singapore will only grow stronger (together) with like-minded economies. There's also an opportunity to create alternate combined trading currencies backed by gold to gradually replace USD. How about this for a food for thought? [Happy] @Daily_Discussion @
@Ah_Meng:Retaliatory tariffs...  The question is not if Singapore is smart not to impose a retaliatory tariff. It's about if Singapore is able to retaliate economically against US.  We have to understand the context here. Singapore is a small island nation with no natural resources. What it lacks it made up for through sheer hard work from its people to arrive at today's prosperity. Singapore economy strives in an open economy environment. Therefore, Singapore had benefited greatly from a free trading world ๐ŸŒ. With the second coming of Donald Trump brings chaos and a new dawn to the world of economic. The words, "protectionism" and "closed economy" seems to loom large in this new term. Much worse than his first. It appears he has already warmed up and ready to show his true colours.

Post tariff relief rally? Numbers don't lie

Be careful what you wish for. How many times have we watched the market or maybe Nvidia flying ๐Ÿชฝ and wished we could go back in time to hitch a ride? When the market comes crashing down, with Magnificent 7 leading the way down, how many of us actually buy it? If you did, have you actually scooped up some bargains, or are you catching the falling ๐Ÿ”ช? No doubt many of us would ask the same question as we navigate the markets in these volatile times. Early false dawn appeared in last night's US session. Did you buy or sell anything? Today, the whole world's major markets staged a concerted rebound! So is this real? Or a falling ๐Ÿ”ช? A bounce in the US market is definitely here! Numbers don't lie. We can see that in the charts below. RSIs are all in extremely oversold positions, which is expected

Tariffs War has started, what's your move?

In a tariffs war, nobody wins. Consumers are obviously the biggest losers. Americans, whose President started it, have more to lose. Here's the winners for day 1. Potential winners for day 2 and more... There are obviously many along the same line of thought. Shorts the big techs that have lots of imports and exports out of US as part of their supply chain. It's no wonder Warren Buffett had been cutting Apple ๐ŸŽ๐Ÿ! He is as sharp as ever if you ask me. What is your move? Would you go into shorting big techs too? With leverage and all? Or will you be just twiddling your fingers and hoping that the whole saga will just die down and markets would just shoot all the way back up? Or go on a holiday and pretend nothing has been? Or maybe sell everything and wait it out? There are so many different

What have you been doing?

I wrote โœ๏ธ last week on "What are you watching today?" Today, I am asking the "doing" part. I read sometime ago a famous teaching that struck me, it's something like,"Knowing what's coming isn't enough; it's what you do with that knowledge". We all know what happened during US last trading session. It's hindsight, no guessing is needed. We also know what comes after closing... Many traders have waited with abated breath for this announce by Donald Trump anyway. That's the two images I could imagine. Which do you like more? [Facepalm]  [Duh]  [Tongue]   I did my usual jog... 5th day into the jog... Going into weekends, so might mix again with swim. Did anything change today?
