🌟🌟🌟Bitcoin is gaining prominence and it may rise even higher than USD 110,000.  I believe that a Bitcoin Reserve will help Bitcoin gain further prominence especially with a Pro Crypto President like Donald Trump. There is also scarcity in Bitcoin as there will be a Bitcoin Halving every 4 years.   That is why I believe that Bitcoin will continue to rise.  @Tiger_comments  @TigerStars  @CaptainTiger  

🌟🌟🌟What an amazing comeback for $CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc.(CRWD)$  from the aftermath of the Blue Screen outage! I did not invest directly in CrowdStrike but in$iShares Cybersecurity and Tech ETF(IHAK)$ which is an ETF that holds CrowdStrike.  That way it is more diversified as it holds 46 of the best Cyber Security companies globally.  The 10 holdings include $Palo Alto Networks(PANW)$  $SentinelOne, Inc(S)$  $Fortinet(FTNT)$  a

🌟🌟🌟A photo tells a thousand words and this photo which I took on my cruise on Royal Caribbean's Quantum of the Sea earlier this year reflects ingenuity and creativity. We were on a cruise to the lovely Pacific Islands and on this particular day we needed to take a tender boat to reach Mystery Island.  Mystery Island is named because when it is high tide, the island disappears covered by the ocean.  So in order not to stand in a long queue as there were 4000 passengers, we use our slippers or shoes as markers for our position in the queue.   You can see some of the passengers barefooted in the photo sitting at the tables.  Isn't that a brilliant idea?  On looking back, this shows that the human mind is really capable of thinking creatively and outside the box.&

🌟🌟🌟I have invested in $iShares Gold Trust(IAU)$  which tracks the spot gold price, using gold bars held in vaults.  IAU is the 2nd largest Gold ETF after $SPDR Gold Shares(GLD)$  which is the world 's largest Gold ETF. IAU' s share price is up 29% year todate.  It also has a low expense ratio of 0.25%.  I use IAU ETF as a tactical hedge against high inflation and potential rise in geopolitical conflicts as Gold is often regarded as a safe haven asset.  With IAU, there is no need to worry about safe custody issues or theft.  It is also easier to buy and sell the ETF, just like any other ETFs. 

🌟🌟🌟The Hong Kong Legislative Council's Stamp Duty Legislation Bill 2024 which waives the stamp duty payable on the transfer of shares or units of REITs would have a positive impact on its stock market. This will make Hong Kong's REITs market more competitive and align it with other international markets.  It will also reduce transaction costs of the options markets too.  Ultimately this bill would boost the Hong Kong economy too.  @Tiger_comments  @TigerStars  

🌟🌟🌟Tesla $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$  share price is sizzling hot as it is on a tear since Donald Trump was elected as President.  Tesla has risen by 10.8% in the past 5 days and since November it is up 26%. There are good news all round for Tesla.  First up Tesla's year todate China EV registration has turned positive in Q3 24 and are now up 8% compared to previous year quarter.  Tesla sold 78, 856 EVs in November compared to 65,504 EVs in the same month last year.  Tesla is also releasing its low cost model with a price tag of USD 30,000 in Q1 25.  Then there is  the Optimus humanoid robot project plus the launch of Robotaxi in 2025. However at the last closing price of USD 418

🌟🌟🌟Quantum computing is the next frontier in technological advancement.  Quantum computing is  derived from quantum physics with quantum computers' ability to solve complex problems with extraordinary speed. Take for example Google's chip Willow. It only took 5 minutes to solve a complex problem whereas the classic super computers will take 25 Septillion years - that's 1 plus 24 zero years.   I am excited that Google is taking a quantum leap with Willow especially since I have invested in Google.  The next level is to build big quantum computers that will help advanced AI machine learning.  It is not surprising that Google has been rising 4 consecutive days.  Wall Street Analysts are bullish on Google with a Buy rating.  The next level for Googl

🌟🌟🌟I am fortunate that I did not miss the boat on $NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$ .  However in the short term Nvidia may face some volatility due to the US Chinese geopolitical relationship but I believe Nvidia will continue its exponential growth in the future. Nvidia has a wide moat in terms of its dominant position in AI chips which is in such high demand that it has a time lag in supplying them.     @Tiger_Academy  @TigerStars  @Tiger_comments  

🌟🌟🌟What an exciting time in December as the Santa Rally continues with great gusto.  Nasdaq at all time high with the Magnificent 7.  Bitcoin going past USD 100,000! The Bull is very much alive and well, galloping towards the end of the year. What a great feeling it is to be invested in the markets.  My favourite Tech Stock $Alphabet(GOOGL)$  is up too with the news on the release of its new chip Willow to fast track quantum computing.  This is going to be a game changer as it is able to solve complex problems in just 5 minutes compared to the fastest super computers that will take Septillion years to solve.  Septillion years means 1 followed by 24 zeros years  slower than Wil

🌟🌟🌟@TigerEvents It is such an honour and privilege to be on the Nominee List for 2024 Most Popular Tigers.    There are so many talented Tiger Friends who have generously shared their knowledge and expertise in investing throughout 2024.  I know first hand that it takes lots of time and effort to write good quality articles.    I am also very grateful to be part of this wonderful community of like minded Tiger Friends whom I have shared my triumphs and boopers.   Because of all of you, I am a much better investor than when I first started 4 years ago.  I have thoroughly enjoyed writing my posts as it helps me to crystallise my ideas especially after a thorough research on the various stocks

🌟🌟🌟Keith Gill, more famously known as Roaring Kitty is back in action and $GameStop(GME)$  soars with his endorsement!  Can the momentum be sustained?  Gamestop Bulls and loyal fans of Roaring Kitty may think so but the reality is that Game Stop's Brick and Mortar stores may be on the decline with US shopping centres facing hard times. Online games are the current trend and on the rise with big players such as $TENCENT(00700)$  and $Microsoft(MSFT)$  XBox and Sony PlayStation.  Perhaps it is a case of FOMO by Gamestop investors.  However

🌟🌟🌟Bitcoin and Crypto stocks are subject to high volatility.  But with the advent of quantum computing, quantum computers could dominate the mining process, leading to centralisation and security vulnerabilities.  This is because quantum computing can handle multiple possibilities simultaneously, creating increased processing power to solve more complex problems.  It threatens to crack cryptographic algorithms that secure cryptocurrencies, thus exposing private keys used to access crypto funds held in wallets.  That is why Bitcoin and Crypto stocks are down on news of Google's release of its new chip Willow.  @Tiger_comments  @TigerStars  

🌟🌟$Destiny Tech100 Inc(DXYZ)$  is an ETF that is a closed fund that is set up to offer investors privately held Tech  companies that is not available to the public.  The Top 10 holdings include Elon Musk's Space X.  DXYZ share price has been most volatile, from a low of USD 10 to a high of USD 60. It is important to be cautious when investing in a volatile stock like DXYZ.  However the capital gains can be substantial.  @Tiger_comments  @TigerStars
