🌟🌟🌟On September 25 2024, the Chinese authorities announced a swathe of stimulus measures that caused a wave of renewed optimism in Chinese stocks and ETFs, resulting in a massive rally. However since then the optimism has gone down. On Saturday, the Chinese Finance Minister Lan Fo An reiterated China's broad plans to revive the economy with promises made on significant increases to government debt and support for the consumers and the property sector. While the impact of the proposed plan to lift the China economy may not be felt in the immediate future, I believe that this is great starting point for investors to jump back into the Chinese stock market. The PBOC's RMB 500 billion swap facility to channel more cash into the stock market is reassuring too. Chinese stoc

Can Nvidia Blackwell Demand Propel it To $160? Possible!
We saw $NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$ Blackwell AI portfolio is sold out for the next 12 months as Team Green witnesses massive demand for its upcoming products. It would not be wrong to say that NVIDIA is on track to see the Blackwell generation as the firm's most successful product in its history, mainly because demand is now said to have skyrocketed to an unprecedented level. With the capabilities and computing power brought in by Blackwell, the architecture has managed to attract the attention of major market players such as Microsoft, Meta, Oracle and OpenAI, and now, Morgan Stanley claims that Team Green has sold out the supply for Blackwell products moving into 2025, creating a massive supply-demand bottleneck.

I am certain by now, everyone is aware of the antitrust law suit brought upon Google by US’s Justice Department (DOJ). The Justice Department has suggested a breakup of $Alphabet(GOOG)$’s Google as a potential way to address its de facto “Search” monopoly. Alphabet is fighting back against the prospect, of course. However, should it take place, investors should not be all that upset. According to Alphabet’s VP (Regulatory affairs) - Lee-Anne Mulholland: The government seems to be pursuing a sweeping agenda that will impact numerous industries & products, with significant unintended consequences for consumers, businesses, and American competitiveness. To call it a big deal would be an understatement. A breakup of a monopoly has not happened
Microsoft Stock: Why the Bottom May Not Be In Yet Despite Long-Term Growth Potential
Has Microsoft Bottomed Out? Despite Microsoft's ( $Microsoft(MSFT)$ ) strong fundamentals, it appears that the stock has not yet fully bottomed. Year-to-date, Microsoft has underperformed the NASDAQ by 11 percentage points. This underperformance is linked to investor concerns over increased capital expenditures (CapEx) for AI developments, which are expected to pressure gross margins. Historically, similar periods of high CapEx have led to short-term stock weakness, only followed by a recovery once growth in its cloud segment, Azure, reaccelerated. Technically, Microsoft’s stock is showing signs of stabilization, but there’s little evidence that it has fully bottomed out. Concerns around AI profitability, potential losses from its OpenAI investmen

🌟🌟🌟The US markets closed higher on Friday with the S&P500 and the Dow Jones setting record highs. This is due to big boosts from financial stocks after banks reported strong quarterly results while the latest inflation data fueled expectations for a Feds rate cut in November. $Schwab US Large-Cap ETF(SCHX)$ SCHX is a great low cost way to invest in 2500 of the largest publicly traded US companies.

I expect a boost for the crypto markets, particularly because lower interest rates tend to increase liquidity and make riskier assets like cryptocurrencies more attractive to investors. A reduction in rates could serve as a catalyst for a year-end rally. The potential rate cut might set the stage for a crypto bull market, driven by increased liquidity, lower borrowing costs and a quite favorable market sentiment.
You won’t believe it that I was invited for an event at Levi’s Ion Wed night, 9 Oct, via LinkedIn. I was expecting a talk on promoting Loqate products. Instead, I was given $250 to shop. 😱🤦♀️🤕😬🙄.

Hence an extremely early Xmas from me - courtesy of Loqate. People used LinkedIn for looking jobs whereas company invited me for such event.
