๐๐๐I believe that $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ will have an increase not exceeding 5% tomorrow. AMD's 4.03% gain to close at USD 246.27 on February 2, shows that the market is positioning it for a strong earnings report. The current price action reflects strong institutional confidence in AMD's Data Centre and AI accelerator segments. Investors are effectively "buying the rumour" of a data centre surge but the 5% threshold remains a psychological and technical ceiling until the official Q4 results provide the catalyst required to justify a more aggressive rally. I would be keen to find out what CEO Lisa Su has to say on AMD's road map for 2026 and its lofty target of capturing double digit AI market share.
๐๐๐ Congratulations @Aaron_Hy for achieving the million dollar landmark which much of us can only dream of. Thank you for sharing your investing journey and your strategies to make winning trades. Congratulations on winning big on $SanDisk Corp.(SNDK)$ and $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ this year.๐๐๐๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฐ The lesson I learnt is to be disciplined and continuous learning and research. May 2026 be another phenomenal year for @Aaron_Hy ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฐ
๐๐๐January Barometer : Bullish Finish or Q1 Deja Vu? The January Barometer says: As goes January , so goes the year. But markets don't care about folklore. They care about earnings, liquidity and macro headlines. Last year's Q1 pullback was a reminder that early year optimism can evaporate faster than a New Year 's resolution. Could 2026 repeat that pattern? Absolutely. Could it also rebound into a bullish finish? Also absolutely. January didn't give us a prophecy. It gave us a warning - the kind that says "Handle with emotional discipline". But here is the truth: One month in a time capsule means nothing. Not when investing is about compounding, patience and refusing to let short term drama interrupt our long term destiny.
๐๐๐Gold & Silver: A Deep Dive or a Golden Pit? When precious metals fall, they don't fall politely. They swan dive. But here is the thing : Gold and Silver rarely crash because their fundamentals break. They crash because humans panic , algorithms overreact and liquidity dries up at the worst possible moment. That is why deep dives in Gold and Silver often feel like a Golden Pit - terrifying on the way down but historically rewarding for anyone brave enough to climb in with a shovel and a long term view. If you believe in Gold and Silver as insurance against human overreaction , then January's drop looks less like danger and more like a big sale. I am ready to climb in with my shovel and start digging in to find my Golden Pit. My future self will thank me
๐๐๐Every time tensions flare in the Middle East, especially when Iran steps into the spotlight, the markets react like a living organism. Oil spikes. Tankers reroute. Traders grip their screens a little tighter. Right in the centre of that global heartbeat sits $Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund(XLE)$ . XLE doesn't tiptoe. It moves with the weight of $Exxon Mobil(XOM)$ $Chevron(CVX)$ $ConocoPhillips(COP)$ $Occidental(OXY)$ and many of the
๐๐๐Trump wants Kevin Warsh as the next Fed Chair and the markets are already sweating. Warsh is the unpredictable wild card and markets do not like uncertainty. Whether Kevin Warsh is a hawk or a dove, nobody knows for sure. But I know that Gold and Silver don't care about nomination or noise. Gold and Silver care about trust and when trust wobbles, they shine. Gold is the safe haven while Silver has real world uses and demand has far exceeded supply. My strategy stays the same : calm hands, steady accumulation by dollar cost averaging $Gold Trust Ishares(IAU)$ and $iShares Silver Trust(SLV)$ Gold and Silver are my insurance against inflation and a diversification in my portfolio. Whil
Bitcoin Below USD 80,000: Fear, Flight or The Start of A Legendary Re Entry?
๐๐๐Bitcoin has slipped below USD 80,000, a brutal 30% drawdown from its October peak - the kind of fall that shakes even the strongest hand. This time, the fear isn't retail panic. It is institutional hesitation. 3 straight months of USD 4.8 billion in net outflows from US listed Bitcoin ETFs - the longest streak since launch. This has drained confidence and liquidity. While Bitcoin bleeds, Gold is surging, pulling capital toward the oldest safe haven away from the newest. This is not a quiet correction. This is a sentiment reset. Is This A Deeper Shift In Institutional Appetite? Maybe. Institutions do not panic, they reposition. ETFs outflows tell a story : Risk appetite is cooling. Macro uncertainty is rising. Gold is recl
๐๐๐I believe $Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$ will close at USD 140 to USD 160 range. Palantir has beaten earnings expectations for 12 consecutive quarters. If they deliver a significant "beat & raise" on February 2, Palantir is historically prone to post earnings rallies. Current technical support is around the USD 147 level. Maintaining this floor through Friday would keep it firmly in the USD 140 to 160 range. Major firms like Citi have recently upgraded Palantir to a Buy with a USD 235 target, citing a defense super cycle & accelerating AI adoption that could drive 70 to 80% revenue growth in 2026. Palantir is standing at the edge of something big. This maybe its "Google moment". Is USD 200 easy in 2026? No.
๐๐๐I invest in $SPDR Portfolio S&P 500 ETF(SPYM)$ because it is the simplest, low cost way to own America's economic engine. In just 1 trade I gain exposure to 500 of America's biggest and strongest companies. SPYM rewards patience. It compounds quietly while I stay focused on consistency. I don't need to predict the next headline or react to every market swing. I simply dollar cost average and let time do the heavy lifting. SPYM recently hit all time highs but that is not the reason I invest. It is just a reminder that boring, steady compounding works and that emotional discipline is a real edge. Simple, steady and built to last. That is why SPYM stays in my portfolio.
Palantir: The Comeback Kid Or Just Catching Its Breath?
๐๐๐Palantir $Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$ is down nearly 18% in 2026 and honestly it feels like deja vu. We have watched this movie before. Early 2024 looked just as gloomy.... right before the stock jumped like a rocket to the moon by 340% for the full year. If Palantir has a personality trait, it is this: it looks terrible before it looks brilliant. Now we are heading into Q4 2025 earnings on February 2 and expectations are sky high: Revenue: >USD 1.34 billion, Adjusted EPS : >0.23 and 2026 growth : >43%. This isn't a "Hope for the Best" quarter. This is a "Prove the AI Flywheel Is Real" quarter. Why The Selloff Wasn't About Palantir Bulls argue that the post Q3 drop wasn
Alphabet at USD 4 Trillion & I Am Still Here For The Next Trillion
๐๐๐Alphabet $Alphabet(GOOGL)$ $Alphabet(GOOG)$ is sitting at a breathtaking USD 4 Trillion in market cap, brushing against its all time highs. Yet for me this moment isn't just about the company. It is about the journey. I have watched this stock fall under USD 100 in late 2022 when the market panicked but I held on. When sentiment cracked and headlines screamed, I held on. Today I am up 191% and that patience feels less like luck and more like conviction finally being recognised. But now comes the real test: February 4 2026 earnings. Wall Street expects an EPS of USD 2.64, an increase of 23% YoY
๐๐๐With President Trump officially nominating Kevin Warsh as the next Federal Reserve Chair to replace Jerome Powell in May, markets are entering a new phase of policy reassessment. Warsh has long been viewed as a hawk - attentive to inflation risks and cautious about excess liquidity. However his record shows a more situational and pragmatic approach. During the 2008 financial crisis, he was one of the earliest voices inside the Fed calling for swift meaningful rate cuts to stabilise the system. That flexibility is why his nomination is generating mixed reactions. Warsh's experience and credibility may help steady markets. His historical hawkishness raises questions about the future rate path. However Warsh was nominated by President Trump who prefers l
๐๐๐The Golden Gamble: Bull vs Bear in the Warsh era. Gold is plummeting faster like a rock to the bottom of the ocean, currently around USD 4860/Oz. Bull: Buy the dip. Central banks are buying Gold to diversify away from the dollar. Global tensions especially in Iran means Gold is a safe haven asset to buy and hold in tumultuous times. Bear: Gold is a bubble. A Warsh led Fed will fight inflation with a stronger dollar & possibly lower interest rates. When the US dollar strengthens , Gold as an unyielding asset looks less attractive. The Verdict: The current emotive market reaction is certainly bearish. Whether you should hold Gold or sell is a multi million dollar question. The smart money is waiting for the dust to settle, watchin
In A World On Fire, Gold & Silver Are The Last Honest Assets
๐๐๐Every market cycle has its illusions. Every central bank has its narrative. Every empire has its moments when confidence begins to fracture. But 2 assets never lie: Gold and Silver. They do not bend to political spin, monetary experiments or geopolitical chaos. Gold and Silver are the last honest assets in a world that feels increasingly combustible. The World Is Burning at the Edges You can feel it - in the headlines, in the markets, in the tone of policymakers who insist that everything is under control while the ground shifts beneath them. The US Dollar is being stretched past its limits. Years of deficits. Relentless money printing. It is a fiscal path that no one in Washington is willing to confront. This is what currency d
๐4 Titans are at a crossroad. Conviction is being tested. Investors are forced to choose whether they trust the story or the noise. Microsoft: Would I buy at $400? Yes. Its dip isn't about weakness. It is about investors flinching at its AI Capex & slowing cloud growth. Yet long term AI enterprise engine remains intact. $400 is the level where weak hands panic & strong hands accumulate. Meta: Can it be chased after a 10% jump? Yes. I believe Meta's growth runway is long. I see accelerating revenue, AI driven ad strength & its willingness to spend boldly because the growth is real. Apple: It trades on expectations, not explanations. So even when it says memory cost inflation is manageable, the market hears margins may drop, supply chain is tight. G
๐๐๐Storage is the new compute and the market has finally woken up! $SanDisk Corp.(SNDK)$ and $Western Digital(WDC)$ are absolutely on fire right now because they have transformed from cyclical commodity players into the indispensable backbone of the AI revolution. Their latest earnings didn't just beat expectations. They shattered them! The NAND supply squeeze: AI models need massive ultra fast storage and SanDisk is capitalising on this with its Enterprise SSDs, seeing its margins explode as NAND prices are projected to jump 50% in early 2026 alone. Western Digital is reaping an AI infrastructure harvest as hyperscalers flock to their high capacity HAMR and UltraSMR hard drives for co
๐๐๐Tether is a privately owned company yet it runs the largest stablecoin business in the world by a huge margin. Across every major metric - supply , trading volume , liquidity and global usage - USDT is number 1. Tether's dominance gives it enormous influence over crypto liquidity. It has massive cash flow from interest in reserves. Now Tether has built up a massive Gold reserve and hints at future Gold trading business. Exciting times are ahead for Tether.๐๐๐๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฐ @Tiger_comments @TigerStars @Tiger_SG @TigerClub
๐๐๐ $Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$ and $Microsoft(MSFT)$ reported their earnings. Meta rose but Microsoft fell. Meta jumped because investors finally saw what CEO Mark Zuckerberg has been building toward - an AI powered advertising engine that is accelerating, not slowing . A 24% revenue surge in Q4 is an amazing turnaround. Reels is scaling. WhatsApp is monetisation. AI driven ad optimisation is printing money. For the first time Meta is finally showing that it is able to monetise its AI investments. Microsoft, meanwhile delivered a strong 17% revenue in FY26 Q2 and yet its stock fell. Higher capital expenditure with no quick return on investment. Who will win in
๐๐๐When geopolitical tensions heat up, especially between US and Iran, Gold doesn't wait for confirmation. It climbs with Spot Gold prices hitting over USD 5,500/Oz , an all time high. That is why I have invested in $Gold Trust Ishares(IAU)$because IAU directly tracks the physical price of Gold. It is the 2nd largest Gold ETF after $SPDR Gold ETF(GLD)$ with a low expense ratio of 0.25% compared to GLD's 0.40%. This makes IAU a more cost effective option for long term investors while GLD offers higher liquidity, often beneficial for active traders. The steady rise in Spot Gold isn't speculation.&n
๐๐๐ $UnitedHealth(UNH)$ is the largest healthcare insurer in the US, a company with scale, data and reach that no competitor can replicate. It dropped like a rock to the bottom of the ocean this week mainly because of news that the proposed rate of increase for Medicare Advantage by the government is only 0.09% instead of the expected 4%. I believe that this is a bargain hunting opportunity as UNH is oversold and undervalued. UNH also has Optum, the quiet powerhouse that touches the entire spectrum of healthcare : from pharmacy benefits, to clinics to data analytics. Optum is the part that turns UNH from a defensive insurer to a diversified healthcare ecosystem. UNH is still a healthcare giant with deep cash flow, scale and an unmatche
