Hello, Happy New Year Everyone!As we step into 2025, a major event in Q1 could shape the future trajectory of the crypto market: Trump’s inauguration as President.In just 11 days (on January 20th, Eastern Time), U.S. President-elect and Republican Donald Trump will officially take office.The incoming Trump administration has drawn significant attention from the cryptocurrency market.

Hello, Tigers!To welcome 2025, I used AI to compile insights from Bloomberg's 30 leading global institutions regarding their outlook for the year. Based on over 700 conference calls, Wall Street's consensus on 2025 market trends can be summarized as follows:Key Insights for 2025Strong Growth in the U.S. Economy and AssetsThe U.S. economy is expected to perform exceptionally well in 2025, driven by renewed momentum from Trump-era policies and its relative attractiveness compared to other major markets. Many key markets may face challenges from Trump’s tariff policies.

Hello, everyone!Recently, Tesla’s stock performance can truly be described as soaring to the skies. From $280 before Trump’s election, it has skyrocketed all the way to $470, a whopping 67% increase. I once made a short-term trade on Tesla when it was at $350, but unfortunately, I lacked the vision to hold on. I sold it at $370, and then the stock took off even further.Reflecting on the pain, while Tesla's current trend looks impressive, is it still a good idea to jump in at these high levels?Tiger academy believes that even though Tesla has a promising future, the mindset of someone who got in at the $300 range is entirely different from someone getting in now. So, even though it was sold too early, i still don’t dare to chase it at these highs. Instead, a more balanced offensive and defe

2024 Review:US Stock Market: Technology stocks, particularly in the AI sector, drove the market higher. The S&P 500 has realised returns in excess of 25% for two consecutive years.

Hong Kong and China-A (onshore) shares: Financial sectors and High-yielding dividend stocks performed well.

Recently， the US stock market has crashed…Cryptocurrency-related stocks were hit particularly hard, facing the dual headwinds of an underwhelming rate cut and Powell’s remarks. Bitcoin has fallen below the critical $100,000 mark, with a cumulative drop of over 10% from its peak to its current price. Related stocks, such as MSTR and Coinbase, have also plummeted by more than 20%.Although many investors remain optimistic about the future prospects of cryptocurrencies, this situation has shaken confidence.

According to Zhishi Tiger, in an uncertain market, the key is to focus on finding certainty. But what exactly is “certainty,” a

Hello everyoneIn this session, let's talk about a particularly volatile stock recently: $MicroStrategy(MSTR)$ . This stock, deeply tied to Bitcoin, has seen a remarkable surge in its price, driven by Bitcoin's skyrocketing rally. Over the course of just one month, its stock price shot up by 58%. However, since entering December, the price has been oscillating widely between $350 and $420.Looking at related options products, implied volatility is moderate, but premiums remain high. Meanwhile, FCN products are offering an annualized coupon rate of about 55%, indirectly signaling expectations of high price volatility ahead. This suggests that short-term stock holdings come with significant risks.So, how should we trade this symbol?1.
