$Trump Media & Technology(DJT)$ When thinking about adding Donald Trump-related stocks to my portfolio, I’ve taken a good look at the potential ups and downs. First off, stocks linked to Donald Trump, like his media ventures or businesses, can be pretty volatile. This means while there’s a chance for big gains, there’s also a lot of risk involved. I need to be ready for the quick ups and downs that can happen based on political events, what Trump says publicly, or changes in how people see him. There are also the regulatory and legal risks to think about. Companies connected to Trump often face extra scrutiny from regulators and could get tangled up in legal issues, which can affect their financial health and stock prices. It’s important to sta
Earnings | ASML -6% After Guidance Miss! "Buy the Dip" Chance or Not?
Just now, the lithography giant $ASML Holding NV(ASML)$ released its Q2 earnings, a mixed bag indeed!ASML Q3 Guidance MissesLet's dive in: Q2 revenue hit €6.24 billion, down 9.5% YoY but still surpassed management's guidance of €6.2 billion and analysts' forecast of €6 billion.Gross margin was 51.5% in the second quarter, topping both management's 51% guidance and analysts' estimate of 50.6%.And new orders? A whopping €5.57 billion, far exceeding analysts' prediction of €4.41 billion.However, ASML's Q3 guidance fell flat. Expected revenue ranges from €6.7 billion to €7.3 billion, missing analysts' mark of €7.46 billion.As results, ASML's share price plunged 3.48% in the evening trading of Tiger Securities:The takeaway from ASML's Q2 Firstly, the Q
Markets now have a BASE CASE of 6 interest rate cuts over the next year. The base case shows rate cuts at every meeting remaining in 2024 starting in September. Discussions of a 50 basis point interest rate cut have even begun to emerge. This feels a lot like January 2024 when the market went from pricing-in 3 rate cuts in 2024 to 7 in a matter of weeks. The only way rate expectations can get more dovish this year is if the Fed starts cutting rates by 50 basis points. What happens if CPI inflation begins to rise again?
Support Vance as the vice president candidate now as there is no better person. He is an inspiring young writer, venture capitalist and politician: Vance is the perfect choice!

$Apple(AAPL)$ How big the Magnificent 7 has become? The Magnificent 7's market cap is higher than any non-US stock market in the world. The group is worth now ~$15.7 trillion, almost double China’s stock market value of $8.7 trillion. It is also worth nearly as much as the German, Canadian, UK, French, and Indian stock markets COMBINED. Apple, Nvidia, and Microsoft each are worth more than the German and Canadian markets. To put this into another perspective, the total US stock market is worth $50 trillion, just 3 times more than the Magnificent 7. Big tech is MASSIVE. Over the last few days, we have seen large cap tech stocks underperform small caps. For the first time in years, small caps are leading the ma

I am a very long term investment. I had bought this share $ResMed(RMD)$ since 2008 till now. However, I have sold and bought along the years. If I have hold on all the shares that I had bought since 2008. I could easily earn more than 1million now. Therefore, my thought is like Warren Buffet, hold on to the shares if you like the company business model. You think the company have a great potential of growthing in the market, you should hold on for long term. It will be able to give you the return x2/×3/×4/×5.....×10.

I opened $PLTR 20240823 22.0 PUT$ ,The decision to sell additional put options at a lower strike price of USD 22, amidst a temporary dip in share price, was driven by sustained confidence in Palantir’s resilience and growth potential. This move further diversified the strategy by adding another layer of income while managing risk through a lower strike price. The cumulative premiums collected (USD 156 in total) provided a buffer against any potential short-term volatility, reinforcing the belief in the company’s upward trajectory. Please see my post on 'Investment Reflection on PLTR Put Option Strategies' published on 17 July 2024.
How will Trump's assassination affect the election and markets?
There's no doubt that the weekend news surrounding Trump's assassination has outpaced U.S. economic data such as non-farm payroll inflation. Although the market as a whole opened calmly at the beginning of this week, this variable is likely to have affected the progress of the general election, which will trigger a series of chain reactions.In previous poll data, Trump was ahead of Biden, but after the weekend attack, this data further widened the gap. There is even a saying that there is no suspense about Trump's election. It must be admitted that in the competition between the two "old people", Biden has almost no advantage. However, the general election in the United States is not a complete leader's charisma, nor is it simply about the amount of people's support. Therefore, our judgmen
