I opened $Grab Holdings(GRAB)$  ,I bought Grab as I believe that it is significantly undervalued with lots of exponential growth ahead. Wall Street Analysts are bullish on Grab with a Buy rating, Target price of USD 4.78, an upside potential of 30%. Grab enables millions of people in South East Asia to access its driver and merchant partners to order food or groceries or hail a ride. Grab is a market leader in this fast growing region. Grab is due to report its Q3 24 Earnings on November 14 24. I expect that its share price will jump on strong growth and better earnings.

🌟🌟🌟As we wait with great anticipation the arrival of Spring Festival, it is a time to celebrate fresh beginnings and set new goals. It is also a busy time to do a thorough spring cleaning of my home as well as buying Chinese New Year goodies. My Top favourite snack is Pineapple Tarts - the kind that melt in my mouth - sweet pineapple filling with contrasting saltishness from the short crust pastry.  Simply heavenly!🥰🥰🥰 Pineapple Tarts or "Ong Lai" in Hokkien dialect means "Fortune is Coming".   My wish this Lunar New Year is that God of Good Fortune will smile on all my Dear Tiger Friends. 😍😍😍🌈🌈🌈💰💰💰 @TigerEvents

🌟🌟🌟Dividend Income  is a great way to achieve passive income while waiting for capital growth.  $NASDAQ 100 Covered Call ETF(QYLD)$  does that rather well with 12% Distribution Yield paid monthly. How does QYLD do this you may ask? QYLD seeks to generate income through covered call writing, which historically produces higher yields in periods of volatility.  In fact QYLD has made monthly distributions 9 years in a row.  QYLD does the heavy lifting by writing call options on the Nasdaq 100 Index, saving investors the time and potential expense of doing so individually.    The Top 10 holdings include $Apple(AAPL)$

🌟🌟🌟Meme stocks are off to a rough start in 2024.  Are they bargains or value traps? $Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$  is facing an investigation by the UK's National Health Service (NHS) whether it has breached contract terms just a week after securing the contract worth £330 million or USD 419 million to build the Federated Data Platform for NHS.

My goal has always been FIRE - Financial Independence Retire Early.  In order to achieve that goal, I seek passive income which I receive in dividend stocks as well as ETFs.

🌟🌟🌟There are so many ETFs to choose from that finding the right ETF to invest in, can be like trying to navigate a maze. However with the following considerations, choosing the right ETF to invest in, can be made easier and more simplified.  1) Alignment with goals, investment objectives and portfolio asset allocation plans. Choosing the right ETF should depend on our goals, investment objectives, portfolio asset allocation plans.  If for example you are just starting to invest and do not know where to start, you may want to consider an index ETF such as the S&P500 ETF like $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$  or $Vanguard S&P 500 ETF(VOO)$ 

🌟🌟🌟 $Cboe Volatility Index(VIX)$ VIX is the Volatility Index also known as the Fear Index.  VIX measures the implied volatility rate of the S&P500 Index.

That sent VIX sky high!
