I opened $Direxion Daily Small Cap Bull 3x Shares(TNA)$  ,I'm willing to trade TNA because its current price is well below the 52-week high. With the 52-week range between $28.40 and $58, I believe the risk of bagholding is lower when the price is on the lower end of that range.

I opened $Direxion Daily Semiconductors Bull 3x Shares(SOXL)$  ,SOXL closed at $16.03 last Friday, down 9.74% from the previous trading day, and continued to drop further during the overnight market today. SOXL can be quite volatile, and given the significant recent price decline, I decided to buy it for a short-term trade, as I believe there's a potential for a rebound.

I received a small amount of Apple shares as a gift from Tiger brokers quite long ago and sold them at a much lower price. Back then, I thought the stock was overvalued so I decided to sell. Now, the price has risen even further but it doesn't matter since it was a small amount.

$Straits Times Index(STI.SI)$ As Singapore's National Day draws near, I'd like to extend a heartfelt early happy birthday to the nation. The anticipation for the celebrations is building and I am eagerly looking forward to watching the impressive fireworks display and the National Day Parade on TV. The parade is always a highlight, showcasing the unity of its people. In the spirit of celebrating Singapore's vibrant culture, I have been reflecting on my culinary skills. I have a deep love for local cuisine but I am still in the process of mastering the art of cooking. I am particularly excited about learning how to prepare some of Singapore's beloved dishes such as chicken rice, Hokkien mee, laska and roti prat

This year, my stock investment strategy has yielded a satisfactory performance overall, with a net profit across my portfolio. I have engaged in trading multiple bank stocks, specifically NYCB, FFWM, VLY, TBNK and CFFN. In addition to these financial sector investments, I have diversified by trading other stocks such as VTRS, ZIM and LSXMA. One of the key components of my portfolio is the TLT etf. Unlike many stocks that I traded on a short-term basis, I intend to hold TLT for the long term.  My confidence in the TLT etf is based on an expectation that its price will continue to increase, reflecting favourable conditions in the bond market. While most of my trades have been successful, my investment in VLY has underperformed this year. Despite its current poor performance, I am optimi

I closed $New York Community(NYCB)$  ,I bought NYCB stock because I initially believed the price was favourable. However, after my purchase, the price dropped before rising again. I decided to sell it because I no longer believed the price was as good as I originally thought.

I closed $Direxion Daily 20 Year Plus Treasury Bull 3x Shares(TMF)$  ,I decided to sell TMF in the overnight market because I believe leveraged ETFs like TMF are more suitable for short-term trading rather than long-term holding. These ETFs use derivatives to amplify returns, which can be advantageous in the short term but also lead to higher volatility. Over longer periods, the effects of daily rebalancing and compounding can cause them to stray from their intended performance, particularly if the market is flat or volatile. Additionally, I'm cautious about holding them overnight due to the lower liquidity in the overnight market compared to regular trading hours. When the price moved enough for a potential profit, I took the opportunity to s

Nasdaq 100 Adjustment: Will Palantir Be Included?

The Nasdaq 100, which comprises the 100 largest non-financial companies listed on the Nasdaq stock exchange, undergoes periodic adjustments based on market capitalization and other eligibility criteria. Palantir Technologies (PLTR), with its rising financial and stock performance, is a potential candidate for inclusion in the index. While such a move could boost optimism among investors, the question remains: does it truly matter in the long run? Why Palantir Could Be Included? Strong Financial Performance: Palantir has consistently delivered strong revenue, demonstrating the scalability of its business model.

Direxion Daily Semiconductors Bear 3x Shares (SOXS)

SOXS, the Direxion Daily Semiconductors Bear 3x Shares, is a highly leveraged exchange-traded fund (ETF) designed to provide three times the inverse performance of the semiconductor sector. While it may seem appealing to traders looking to profit from the downturn of semiconductor stocks, SOXS is definitely not for the faint of heart. Today, for example, SOXS saw a sharp decline of over 10% as semiconductor stocks experienced a rally. This volatility can be both exciting and terrifying for investors, especially those with limited experience or tolerance for risk. It serves as a reminder of how leveraged ETFs like SOXS can be both a blessing and a curse, with potential for large gains as well as steep losses. Price Volatility and Risk Looking at SOXS's 52-week range of $17.73 to $70.70, it

Alibaba Beats & Soars! Time to Revalue and Load Up Now?

Alibaba (BABA) has just delivered an impressive Q3 FY2025 earnings report, posting revenue of 280.15 billion yuan, marking a solid increase from 260.35 billion yuan in the same period last year. This strong double-digit growth signals resilience in Alibaba’s business amid ongoing macroeconomic uncertainties. Despite the stellar performance, I personally won’t be loading up right now—and here’s why. The stock just hit a 52-week high today, and the price has already surged over 8% in a single session. To me, this feels like a prime opportunity to lock in profits rather than buy at elevated levels. In fact, I just sold my position on Moomoo at $141.

S&P At Key Level: Is March the Toughest Month to Trade?

After a brief two-day rebound, the market pulled back again yesterday, largely driven by the impact of Trump's tariffs. This volatility has caused many investors to reassess their strategies, especially as we move further into March, a month that often presents challenges for traders. The combination of uncertainty, geopolitical factors, and seasonal trends makes March a tricky time for many investors. From a personal perspective, I've been reflecting on my portfolio and wondering if it might perform better if I shifted a larger portion of my funds into US money market funds rather than stocks and ETFs. The unpredictable nature of the current market, coupled with high interest rates, makes money market funds an appealing option for stability and liquidity. These funds provide a relatively

Why I Am Not Selling Occidental (OXY)

$Occidental(OXY)$ As an investor in Occidental Petroleum (OXY), I have chosen to maintain my position in the company despite the recent volatility in its stock price. Below, I outline the reasons why I am not selling my shares and believe that holding on to OXY is the right decision in the current market environment: 1. OXY Appears Oversold One of the primary reasons I am not selling my Occidental shares is that I believe the stock is oversold. An oversold condition typically suggests that the market has overreacted to short-term news or sentiment, pushing the stock price below its intrinsic value. This creates an opportunity for long-term investors to purchase at a discount. While market fluctuations are a normal part of investing, the fundamental

Impact of Los Angeles Blazes on Insurance and Electric Utility Stocks

The devastating Los Angeles blazes may have had a significant impact on both insurance and electric utility stocks on Friday, reflecting investor concerns about the long-term ramifications of these wildfires. For example, PG&E Corp (PCG) closed at $17.17 on Friday, marking a 10.81% decline from the previous trading day. This dramatic drop raised eyebrows, especially given its 52-week range of $15.94 to $21.72. PG&E Corp (PCG) Similarly, Allstate (ALL), one of the leading U.S. insurance companies, saw its stock price fall by 5.64%, closing at $180.99 on Friday.

Strong Jobs Report! Will Treasury Yield Drag Market Lower?

The U.S. labor market continues to demonstrate impressive resilience, as December's seasonally adjusted non-farm payroll employment rose by 256,000, exceeding expectations. This strong labor market performance reflects the underlying strength of the economy but also introduces complexities for financial markets. The intersection of robust employment data and rising Treasury yields has created a challenging yet navigable environment for investors, where opportunities and risks coexist. On Friday, the U.S. stock market opened lower, as the 10-year Treasury yield climbed to approximately 4.8%. This development, though concerning for some, presents potential opportunities for those willing to look beyond the short-term volatility. Below, we explore the dynamics of this scenario, its implicatio

Do You Think Information Asymmetry Matters in Stock Trading?

In the past year, Democratic lawmakers experienced a 31% increase in their stock holdings, while their Republican counterparts saw a 26% increase. Meanwhile, the broader S&P 500 index grew by 24.9%. These figures have fueled speculation about whether privileged access to information plays a role in lawmakers’ financial success. Yet, Duan Yongping, often referred to as the "Warren Buffett of China," has suggested that information asymmetry has limited influence on overall market performance. According to Duan, investing is not a zero-sum game, whereas leveraging informational advantages often is. This brings us to the heart of the debate: does information asymmetry genuinely matter in stock trading? The Case for Information Asymmetry in Stock Trading Information asymmetry occurs when on

The Importance of Timing US Economic Data Releases in Trading Decisions

On January 7, 2025, at 11:00:56 PM Singapore time, I placed an order for TMF (Direxion Daily 20+ Year Treasury Bull 3X Shares), a leveraged ETF that seeks to amplify daily returns on long-term US Treasury bonds. My order was filled shortly after placing it. However, I made a critical oversight by not considering the timing of important US economic data releases scheduled for that day. This mistake had a significant impact on the value of my investment shortly after the trade. Impact of Economic Data Releases Unbeknownst to me at the time, two key economic reports were released shortly after my order was executed: ISM Services Index: The ISM Services Index came in at 54.1%, higher than the market's expectations. This reading indicated that the US services sector, a major component of the ec
