A better outlook is a more definitive “rate cut” package for the upcoming months or year. However, with the global uncertainties in middle east and eastern Europe, the inflation may shoot up and the potential rate cuts may stop short. $NikkoAM-STC Asia REIT(CFA.SI)$  $LION-PHILLIP S-REIT(CLR.SI)$ 

$Berkshire Hathaway(BRK.B)$  While everyone is focused on hot stocks like $NVDA $TSLA $GOOGL $PLTR $DJT $BTC (I was one of that idiot to swing trade these.

Rate cuts, no cuts or recession. I have almost zero worries. Hope its the right mindset for you. Sleep well. Gain well.
