My view is, there is no right or wrong, or which is better. Each has its own pros and cons.At the end of the day, it depends on individual’s preference, investment plan, risk tolerance and other factors. But a quick thought would be, why not invest in both?I mean, as consumers, we are already buying products and services from both local and overseas brands. We love Grab, we love DBS, and we love Shopee, but at the same time we also shop on Amazon, we buy Apple products, and Tesla is gaining traction here in Singapore. We also subscribe to Netflix and Spotify.If you have time, feel free to check out my video below for more details:Singapore vs US Stocks - Pros And Cons:https://youtu.be/QzN3u3O0v9YHope you find the video useful [Smile] $A
Inflation has been showing signs of easing over the last 1 year. Rate hikes campaign could be over soon, though rate cut may not happen in the near term. Megacap stocks are rallying like nobody’s business. Next up, investors would want the smaller cap stocks to join this rally to make this bull run “complete”. And I think this period is quite timely as companies report their earnings. We shall see if the smaller companies can give us some good results.

What a whipsaw day! The Fed raised interest rate by 25 basis points, as most have expected. Just 1 more interest rate hike this year. That said, Powell also shared that the fight against inflation isn’t over yet. Market was a lil choppy at that point but was still doing alright. But when Yellen spoke, the market ranked. She basically said that shareholders of the failed banks are not being protected by the government. She also added that US is not considering a “blanket insurance” for bank deposits. Her comments rattled the market. Check out my YouTube video if you have time: FOMC Meeting - More Rate Hikes?? https://youtu.be/8T-Nz5uPOGk $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ $Invesco QQQ Trust(QQQ)$

$Sea Ltd(SE)$Quick thoughtsI usually try to avoid investing in young and unprofitable businessesPeople tend to quote successful examples like Amazon, Tesla, which almost went bankrupt at one point in time. But hey, how many Amazon and Tesla are there in this world?To clarify, I am not saying that Sea is a bad investment or they cannot succeed. I just feel that it is difficult to put my money into a company when it is crystal clear that 2022 will not be a smooth year for them.Buy, Hold or Sell?For those who are already invested in Sea, I think you can hold your stocks right now. The stock needs to break above $100 to be bullish. Otherwise, the next strong support level is at around $53 to $55, and that could be a super good buying opportunity.In shor
Are you still bullish towards Palantir?I have been bearish since Jan 2022, and since then, it has fallen close to 40%. Am no genius. But if you have a minute or two to spare, do hear me out: Palantir is a great company, but I don’t think we should rush to buy this unprofitable company in this weak macro environment.I mean, why not visit it again when it turns profitable? Yes, the price might have gone higher by then, but I think it is still not too late. Look at Tesla, it takes time to fly to the moon.The gist is, you just need to be early on board a good train, but you need not be the earliest, considering the risk-reward ratio.What if, I mean, what if, the train doesn’t fly? You will become a bag holder who is going to hold the stock for years, from 2021 till 2025? 2028? or 2030?Nothing
Stock market was generally down for almost the entire Q1 2022. With the recent rally, is it the start of a real bull run or is it a dead cat bounce? Here are my views on the current stock market outlook as I tried to present both bull and bear cases objectively, and hopefully they can value add to your own research. However,please note they are not financial advices. Bull case:- Growth stocks have been hammered down, and are much cheaper in valuation- Covid situation is better around the world- Fed's latest interest rate hike is per expectatio- When sellers dry up, the market will rebound- Various mega cap stocks are showing bullish trend e.g. Nvidia, Microsoft, Apple and Tesla (can check out the video for simple TA) Bear case- Outcome of ongoing war is uncert
Technology stocks rallied like nothing has happened in the past 1 week. But in actual fact, we had 3 US banks collapsing and Credit Suisse in deep trouble. To make things more complicated, CPI at 6% is still 3 times more than what the Federal Reserve wants to achieve. So what exactly is driving this tech rally? Let’s discuss more in this video. Also, I will be sharing the option trades that I have made last week, so do watch my YouTube video if you are interested.

Quick thoughts on Tesla - 22 Dec Another day, another 52-week low. Where is the floor?[Happy] When most stocks are going down, Tesla is going down. Now that most stocks are going up, Tesla is still going down. That pretty sums up Tesla in the last few weeks. By the way, in case you do not know, Tesla is in this consolidation zone between 120s to 155. Meaning to say, do not be surprised if we reach 120s. Let’s see how Tesla move in the next 2 trading days before Christmas comes Smile ==== Santa Rally No More? (Stock Market Dec 2022) https://youtu.be/99y_gIviGwQ $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$

Stock market turned red as Apple unveiled their new iPhones and other products. But more importantly, the market is waiting for the next CPI data that is set to be released tonight at 830pm (SG time) If the CPI comes in unexpectedly hot, like real hot, then I would think it’s 🩸in the market That being said, there’s no need to try to half guess what the market will do.

Recent economic reports have showed that the US economy and labour market are slowing down. With this, the market sentiment is a little mixed now. On one end, investors are cheering for signs of cooling economy and job market, which may probe the Federal Reserve to pivot, while on the other end, the talk about US entering a recession starts all over again. This coming week, the quarterly earnings season gets underway again. And more importantly, CPI number will be released on 12 Apr, Wed.

If you’re short short term trader, be it buy low sell high, or options / futures trading, always remember to be objective. If market is flying in this weak environment, acknowledge it. I mean, you can still be bearish in the longer term, but it would be dangerous to go against a relief rally or dead cat bounce. Likewise, when the market is falling, do not think that it will not go lower. Massive decline and capitulation can happen anytime. Remember, stay objective.

Will be curious to see if the AI driven rally can continue till the end of the year. If it does, 2023 could be a year for the history book, a so called “AI year”. As we speak, FOMO is getting more and more real. The funny thing is, it not just retail investors. It involves the institutions too. I mean, just imagine, you’re a fund manager, and you are underweight on tech and AI stocks. How are you gonna answer to your clients? And when both institutions and retail investors step in to buy, it creates a SQUEEZE.
