$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$  The problem with averaging into losing trades is twofold: 1. You can have a high win rate, which tends to give you false confidence. 2. It only takes one bad trade to wipe out everything. Walk away from losing trades. Get back in if the setup becomes favorable again. Instead of hoping for the price to recover, you should fear that it could move further against you. I'm bringing this up now because I am watching "finfluencers" do this in real time. If they get bailed out of a position, they will say, "See, look at me, I knew it." The reality is, it's not a winning strategy and never will be, simply because it takes one bad trade to wreck it all.

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ The S&P 500 has resumed its march higher as strong first quarter earnings numbers have helped ease investor fears about inflation and a potentially delayed Federal Reserve pivot to interest rate cuts. In May, the S&P 500 gained 4.2% despite concerns over slowing economic growth, weakening U.S. consumer sentiment and the possibility of stagflation ahead. The S&P 500 is up 10% year-to-date as investors have shrugged off mixed economic data and now anticipate lower inflation, earnings growth acceleration and interest rate cuts in the second half of 2024. Investors are hoping the market can continue its bullish momentum in June as the S&P 500 enters a three-month stretch that has historically been one of the be

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ The first half of 2024 has indeed been remarkable with the soaring U.S. and Hong Kong stock markets, offering a great opportunity to reflect on the progress of our annual goals.

Last week, disappointing domestic data fueled speculation of a potential Fed rate cut this year to curb further economic slowdown. Conference Board’s headline consumer confidence index fell to 100.4 in June (vs downwardly revised 101.3 prior), mainly driven by weakening expectations of future income and business conditions. While initial jobless claims fell slightly to 233k for week ending 22nd June (vs upwardly revised 239k prior), continuing jobless claims rose to 1.84m for week ending 15th June, possibly exacerbating unemployment, thereby indicating a looser labor market. Furthermore, US core capital goods order, an indicator for investment in equipment excluding aircraft and military hardware, experienced the largest drop YTD in May. Core capital goods shipments, an indicator for equ

Overview: Oil prices are experiencing an upward trajectory as we enter the second half of 2024, bolstered by forecasts of a supply deficit due to peak summer fuel consumption and extended OPEC+ production cuts. Despite global economic headwinds and increased non-OPEC+ output capping some gains, both Brent and WTI crude have shown notable resilience, positioning themselves for further potential increases.
