$NextEra Energy Partners LP(NEP)$ Ok so why am I investing in NEP. Simple really, it's a fantastic dividend stock that recently declared it may not be able to keep increasing dividends in the near term due to higher interest rate costs. It tumbled on that news and is yet to recover. But wait a minute, they just said they mite not be able to maintain increasing Their dividend, but they didn't say were reducing it. They just said short term interest rate headwinds mean they won't be increasing the dividend. But it's a bloody good dividend currently 14.39% paid quarterly and it's been paying and increasing dividends consistently for around 10 years. Once again as an emotional investor I see a bargain that investors have oversold because they overreact

Been slowly DCA-ing into $KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF(KWEB)$ for awhile now because I truly believe that it's just a matter of time before it bounces back with the Chinese being the world's 2nd strongest economic powerhouse. Too bad I don't have enough "bullet" [Cry] else would have loved to invest more . Anyway, this spike is probably due to market sentiment after the easing strategies by the Chinese government so rushing in now due to FOMO might be a bit unwise, just my 2 cents....Will continue to stay invested in this ETF by the way, in it for the long run [Miser]

Do Your Trade Focus on the Big Picture or Accumulate Small Gains?
Is Stock Trading About Focusing on the Big Picture or Accumulating Small Gains?Some say that in the ups and downs of the stock market, catching a few upswings can result in significant profits. Yesterday in the Tiger community, one Tiger @原榭hara shared a single trade that made a profit of HKD 1 million, a substantial gain.“Focusing on big pictures“ requires investors to identify undervalued assets and have the courage to buy at the bottom or short-sell when everyone is in a FOMO frenzy, placing large bets. Both approaches require courage and judgment.While some tigers opt to seize arbitrage opportunities during market fluctuations, making small profits each time and accumulating them over time. For example, it's common to see
