$(AMD)$ AMD has surged approximately 25% year-to-date. The stock price fluctuated between $90 and $120 for most of the second half of 2023. Following its earnings report in November 2023 and the announcement of its foray into the AI space, AMD skyrocketed to a high of over $225, marking a 138% increase from the report. Although the stock has retraced about 15% from its peak, it still boasts an impressive 85% gain since November's earnings. While AMD was somewhat overshadowed at the recent GTC 2024 event by Nvidia's new chip announcement, it is currently finding support at the lower end of the channel it has respected since the November 23 rally. Coincidentally, this support aligns with the 50-day Exponential M
What's Our Goal for the S&P 500 This Year? The S&P 500 is like a big scoreboard that shows how well 500 of the biggest companies in the U.S. are doing. People watch it closely to guess how the economy will do. But guessing where it will end up by the end of the year? That's a big question. Let's break it down into pieces that are easier to understand. **What's Happening Now** Think of the economy as a giant machine with lots of parts. The S&P 500 shows us how this machine is running. Some of the parts we watch are: - How much things cost (inflation) - If it's easy or hard for people and companies to borrow money (interest rates) - Big world events that can shake things up - How much money companies are making - How fast the whole economy is moving **Interest Rates and Prices**

Its indeed not bad to have a draw with a team 80 places up. But it’s too early to confirm that their results will be consistent. Definitely easier to win the sales crown than the World Cup. Sales crown is individual work which is easier to be confident of a team sport that requires everyone to be good. Support lions in spirit! But they really have a long way to proving themselves! Hard to deny that their results have been abysmal for decades…
Many fans celebrated the China draw on March 21, which halted the run of defeats! It was fun to watch the Likeable Lions win against Guam last October and helped spur some interest in future games. Singapore’s journey to the 2026 World Cup is an intimidating one with some powerhouses like South Korea and Thailand lying in wait! It will be interesting to watch the Lions and see how they pit their wits against these formidable teams at the National Stadium in Kallang over the next few months. The divide of Lion supporters is growing. In a recent survey 80% of survey respondents felt that football was important to Singapore’s cultural identity, the Baby Boomers (45%) and Gen X (43%) are still standing tall as advocates of football’s significance. However, the support is beginning to wane as
🌟🌟🌟There is optimism in the markets last week with all 3 US indexes notching healthy gains. One reason for the market optimism stems from the recent FOMC meeting with the interest rates left unchanged. Jerome Powell, The Feds Chairman is also reinforcing that interest rate cuts are coming despite the recent hot inflation readings. Last Thursday was the 4th straight winning session for all 3 indexes with the Dow finishing close to 40,000. What's My Target For S&P500 This Year? To answer that question, it is best to look into the past to get a general idea on how the S&P500 Index is tracking. For the purpose of this exercise I shall use $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$
My longest losing friend will definitely be $Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc.(FFIE)$ without any doubt! Never ever I lost so much % in a stock. I cut loss for all my position in FFIE except leaving 1 stock [Cool] [Cool] [Cool]. I purposely kept it as my lesson learnt. Everytime I see it, I will remind myself to plan my trade and trade my plan! And never FOMO to chase after a meme stock!

In my case it's Malaysia stocks. The one that couldn't be recovered is a warrant, I don't have the heart to cut loss at that time, thus I could only see the price getting lower anxiously and ultimately expired worthless [Spurting] Another stock is called Serbadk, which I bought at RM1.8 and cut loss at RM0.795 when there was a huge scandal about the top management releasing false statements about their quarterly results, the company is now on the verge of delisting. From these lessons, I'm now more cautious (traumatized) and buy companies that I'm familiar with
Buying EV stocks is like having a roller-coaster ride! Most of the EV companies remain unprofitable and yet they are still burning more cash to build up on their infrastructure and expansion. A few EV companies (Lordstown Motors, Proterra) have declared bankruptcy recently and the next potential in line is EV start-up company Fisker. Furthermore, the ongoing price war is likely to hurt their profit margin even further and they are likely to remain unprofitable in the near future. Like most new industries, eventually only a few companies would emerge victorious! . Unlike BYD, Tesla or Li Auto, most EV companies clearly have issues scaling up their production significantly. The competition in the EV market has intensified as numerous traditional car markers (Mercedes-Benz, BMW etc
$Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc.(FFIE)$ is rising over 40% in the pre-market trading hours, after rallying almost 49% last night. One thing is apparent to me: the daily fights between the bulls and the bears. The bulls appear to be the meme community speculating on short-squeeze gains despite deteriorating fundamentals of the electric vehicle maker, while the bears are obviously the fundamentalists who have been rushing for the exit as the company's prospects worsen. With a share price lower than 10 cents, Faraday Future Intelligent Electric had since 28 December 2023 received a written notice from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC stating that the company has failed to maintain a minimum bid price requirement of

On Thursday (21 March), Apple CEO Tim Cook has gone through Shanghai to open its newest store in front of large crowd and some of whom had queued overnight. It was 1993 when $Apple(AAPL)$ first established its presence in China with a Beijing office. This year, the US tech giant completed its first 30 years in the Chinese market, Apple’s most important market yet. Tim Cook’s first visit to China since the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic was on 18 March 2023. Tim Cook will be attending the CDF in Beijing next. The US and China’s antagonistic stances on security, economics, technology, and ideology have crystallized over recent years. Accumulation of those antagonisms has left little space for the adjustments that could relieve simmering tensions
