I think Cutting rates would lower short-term interest rates and could potentially un-invert the yield curve. While some have argued that the inverted yield curve might not be a reliable recession predictor this time, I believe it's too early to conclude. Historically, recessions have often followed the un-inversion of the yield curve, which could happen if three rate cuts totaling a 0.75% reduction in short-term rates boost the yield curve back into positive territory. This could then lead to an official recession declaration. If that happens, it typically signals that the stock market has bottomed and is poised for a subsequent rally.Not only in September, but the futures market is also predicting more than a 50% chance for rate cuts in November and December. After the recent FOMC meeting

Office workers have increasingly recognized the importance of video conferencing software, a lesson reinforced by the Covid pandemic. Globally, platforms like Cisco's WebEx, Microsoft Teams, and Zoom have dominated the market. In China, however, Alibaba (NYSE:BABA/SEHK:9988) with DingTalk, and Tencent (SEHK:700) with Tencent Meeting—and its international version, VooV—have established their own robust platforms and are protected from foreign competition. However, some providers of these alternatives, like Huawei’s HarmonyOS and the state-led Unity OS, are not publicly listed, limiting investment opportunities. Nevertheless, there are other companies investors can consider as a starting point for potential investments. For example, Kingsoft (SEHK:3888) offers an alternative to Microsoft's O

The fund was incepted not too long ago in 2020. From the Asia Genesis website, we can derive the following information: The fund’s goal is to seek capital preservation and positive annual compounding. That message is meant to appeal to many of us because this is the goal we all seek: Don’t lose money Don’t lose out to inflation. #1 and #2 are hard to achieve together because most strategies that do very well in each will do badly in the opposite. here most strategic buy-and-hold portfolios have been negative. Since inception, the fund’s 31% cumulative net returns is half of the 62% return of IWDA (which tracks the MSCI World), but similar to the performance of EIMI, the MSCI Emerging Markets IMI ETF. The fund is keeping up with the index that they measure against as well. Unlike many (incl

Surviving big market drops involves being smart about "stop-loss" plans. These are like safety nets for your investments. But here's the catch – you might get "stopped out" too early before the market surges back. To handle this, set your stop-loss levels carefully. If it's too close to what your investment is worth now, you might exit too soon. If it's too far, you risk bigger losses. Some folks use a tiered approach, with different stop levels at different percentages below the current value. This way, small dips don't kick you out too soon. Also, keep an eye on the market. If things change, adjust your stop-loss levels. One size doesn't fit all in investing. Surviving the ups and downs means finding the right balance between playing it safe and staying in the game. Use stop-loss orders

** Take on Market Pullbacks 📉🤣** **Point 1: The tolerance 🫶✌️😼 Let me tell you, folks, the higher your tolerance for market pullbacks, the more likely you are to ride the wave of higher returns. It's like dealing with political opponents – you gotta endure a little turbulence to get to the winning side. **Point 2: Single 50% Pullback vs. Ten 10% Pullbacks** 🤔📈 Now, here's the deal – you endure a single 50% pullback, and boom! You're looking at a 100% return. But, and this is a big but, if you weather ten 10% pullbacks, you end up with a final gain of 159%.

Both are equally painful. Assuming this is index pullback. 50% or 10 10% means a way larger drop in terms of counter pricing. I prefer a gradual drop as it would allow me to DCA in. A single drop would mean I need to be sharp on the entry. 

Thanks to Tiger for awarding the weekly top predictions for QQQ. Come join me to ride the bull market with daily profits 😉 The Nasdaq 100, as monitored through the Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:QQQ), has notched its eleventh week of gains in the last 12, also setting new all-time records and eclipsing the 17,000-point mark. Just three weeks into the new year, tech is showing its staying power, with the market continuing to favor the sector. Chip optimism and AI headlines are helping support the sentiment despite some concerns that Fed rate cuts may take place a little later this year. The surge can be largely attributed to the remarkable performance of U.S. tech giants often referred to as the “Magnificent Seven.” Additionally, semiconductor stocks and other players in the field of artificia

Different pullback i can tolerate for different stocks in different markets. It all depends. Enduring a single 50% pullback yields a 100% return; enduring ten 10% pullbacks results in a final gain of 159%.

It boils down to fundamentals. If the stock is trading 50-60% below valuation, it doesnt matter, as in the long run, there will be reversion to the mean. I am already used to holding stocks that trade 50-60% from purchase price. Will usually average down to bring down the cost. Overtime, they usually recover. However, there is a mark difference between 50% drop and 5x drop of 10%. 50% drop has a high probability of structural issues within the stock, as usually stocks with strong fundamentals even if they drop is in series of bad news. Structural issues will be very difficult to recover, as it implies damage to the fundamentals of the company. A review of the position will be urgently required.

high risk high returns for 10 yr investment time line. 50% drawback it's fine.

i believe it is debatable. Unless u are investing in broad market index where the general trend is upwards over the past 30 years, else there is a likelihood the pullback will not recover...
