Which Stocks Always Surprise You?

Some stocks always manage to surprise during boring days or when their prices decline. Which stock is your delightful surprise in stock market? Will NVIDIA, which is set to release its earnings tonight, bring surprises?

Yet, the point of this post isn’t about the upcoming earnings—that’s short-term. I want to highlight a major trend where Apple is cementing its leadership while no other tech companies are making similar strides: health tech. This is not entirely new; Apple Watch has included fitness tracking and heart rate monitoring for years. Apple continued to improve by adding features like sleep monitoring, ECG, and blood oxygen measurement, expanding its capabilities in health monitoring.

The Nasdaq dropped nearly 2%, with the 'FANG' stocks seeing their largest sell-off in a year and a half, while small-cap and Chinese tech stocks surged, and U.S. bonds and gold soared. U.S. inflation eased across the board, with June CPI turning negative for the first time in four years on a month-over-month basis, and core year-over-year growth hitting a three-year low, boosting expectations of a significant interest rate cut later this year. Ahead of a crucial press conference, Biden once again made a verbal slip, with reports suggesting his advisors are discussing persuading him to withdraw from the race. A shift in market style in the U.S. saw the Nasdaq 100 tumble, while small-cap indices surged, marking the largest divergence since January 2021. Tesla's 11-day winning streak came to

$NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$  A stock that has pleasantly surprised many investors is NVIDIA (NVDA). Known primarily for its graphics processing units (GPUs), NVIDIA has seen its stock soar due to its pivotal role in AI development and data center growth. The company's strategic expansion into AI, machine learning, and autonomous vehicles has driven substantial revenue growth and market optimism, making it a standout performer in the tech sector.

Nvidia's stock split Historical data show that stock splits usually see stock prices go higher after as stock splits result in greater accessibility of the stock to retail investors. What are your thoughts? Will you be buying before the split or after?
$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ TESLA reported a big drop in quarterly profits on Tuesday amid an increasingly cutthroat electric vehicle market, but shares rallied as CEO Elon Musk pledged to accelerate plans for a more affordable EV. Tesla reported profits of US$1.1 billion, down 55 per cent from the year-ago quarter on revenues of US$21.3 billion, down nine per cent as the company described EV sales as “under pressure.” But shares rocketed up more than 11 per cent in after-hours trading after Tesla pledged to “accelerate” new more affordable autos - something Wall Street analysts have been clamouring for. Waiting Tesla 😀

[Happy] $NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$ always bring surprises. Maybe the President cum CEO Mr Jensen Hwang will change the colour if his jacket for this results release. NVDA shares have been scaling new heights and the market is expecting good news from the company. This stock’s price should go up further but it is now retreating from its record high. There is a lot of tension while we wait for the results announcement. Anything can hapoen! Thanks @Tiger_comments @icycrystal
