Journey Traveled As the final trading day before New Year's heralded the close of 2023, reflecting on the year's stock market journey, I maintained a relatively low trading frequency in both Hong Kong and U.S. markets. Despite the overall downturn in the Hong Kong stock market, my investments yielded some returns, particularly due to the strong performance of several core positions. Within the Hong Kong stock market, I actively engaged in trades involving stocks such as Xiaomi and NIO, both of which ranked among the top performers in the Chinese concept stocks for the year. Notably, Ideal Auto, a long-term focus, initiated a strong counteroffensive with its L series, achieving significant year-on-year and sequential growth in sales. It has outpaced many peers in gross profit and sales, lea

As we approach the D-day due next month for decision by the Securities and Exchange Commission on approval of several applications for the inaugural spot price-based exchange-traded funds by the likes of Blackrock, and as the highly anticipated bitcoin halving in next April, I expect greater volatility in the cryptocurrency prices. The launches of bitcoin ETFs trading based on spot prices by multiple asset managers among the world's largest are bound to create the next frenzy in the cryptocurrency market. Likewise, the bitcoin halving once every 4 years when the reward for mining new blocks is halved will limit the supply of new bitcoins that may lift their prices if their demand remains strong. With cryptocurrencies emerging from their year-long winter and garnering strong enthusiasm from

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ 2024 is a year of uncertainty. Sure, we might be ending 2023 with strong performances, and a strong indication of where inflation and interest rates is heading, but how will the market react to it? Some basic economics to explore here, which i have broken down into parts for easy explanation later. 1. Interest rates are part of monetary policies aimed at influencing the amount of money flowing into the economy, so as to influence inflation rates. 2. It does this by increasing or decreasing the cost of borrowing/rewards for saving, thereby resulting in the borrowing price/savings reward going up or down. 3a. As interest rates go up, 3b. more people are incentivized to save as the rewards of saving is higher, while more pe

Goals goals and more goals! I am an avid football fan. So when it comes to goals, usually the first thing that comes to mind is the net bulging when the ball hits it! And it is a nice feeling when the team you are supporting scores the goal.  When it comes to setting goals in term of investments, I guess the rules are similar. You set the goalposts up and try to get the ball in between the posts and score. The wider the posts, the easier to score!  For me, I try to strike a balance. Set the goalposts too wide by being too safe will probably bring average returns but at least the capital is safe! Narrow them too much and run the risk of not being able to score and compromise your capital.  I am expecting 2024 to be tricky for the markets. 2023 was surprisingly great and

Chinese technology stocks are once again caught up in regulatory curbs, as in the latest proposed tightening of the online gaming industry, resulting in significant sell-off of the technology stocks at large, including $Alibaba(BABA)$ , $JD.com(JD)$ , $Pinduoduo Inc.(PDD)$ and $MEITUAN-W(03690)$ , and especially the gaming giant $TENCENT(00700)$ .
