XLF buy order at $31.9 and Berkshire disclosure

Summary This is a repost of an article provided to our investment community at Seeking Alpha. This is an order alert for the Financial Select Sector SPDR® Fund ETF (XLF). We have set a limit buy order for its shares at $31.9. The financial sector is only SLIGHTLY discounted. Although under the current market condition, it is the better option comparatively. To me, Berkshire’s recent disclosure also shows that Buffett could not find too many good ideas besides the financial sector. Front matters and welcome new members! This is a very brief order alert for the Financial Select Sector SPDR® Fund ETF (XLF). We have set a limit buy order for it at $31.9. It is about 2.5% below its current market price, about the magnitude of its weekly price volatility. You will be the first one to know when/i

High dividend yield: QYLD is on our radar

SummaryA ticker has come to our attention recently: The Global X NASDAQ 100 Covered (QYLD). QYLD showed up on our radar because its yields spread against the risk-free rates has surged to a peak level in a decade.  Also, the recent volatility spike reached a level to the top 95% percentile of its historical spectrum, and this can be good news for income generation by option selling.Front mattersIn this article, I wanted to share a ticker that came to our attention recently: The Global X NASDAQ 100 Covered (QYLD). The analysis and our opinion here also apply to many other ETFs or CEFs that follow a similar covered-called strategy. We have not taken any action yet (due to a lack of new capital...lol). As patient investors, we usually set a limit price buy order when/if we want to buy. A

2H 2022 market outlook: energy sector most attractive, utility least

Summary: Now is a good time to form an outlook for the 2nd half of 2022. The Fed’s recent announcement has provided the needed rates clarify for the remainder of the year, and many bellwether stocks issued their earnings. And we see the energy sectors represented by the Energy Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLE) to be the most attractive sector currently. In contrast, I see too much valuation risk in traditional “safe-haven” sectors such as REITs and utilities. We use the following market sector dashboard to put our finger on the pulse of the market and its major sectors.

[Market Outlook] Rates and Bonds

[Market Outlook] Rates and Bonds Summary This is a repost of an article provided to our investment community at Seeking Alpha. The main purpose is to provide our outlook and action plan given the odds of further rate hikes after Powell’s recent comments. You have good reasons to be concerned about a recession. The yield curve remains inverted – at the deepest unseen level since the 1980s. Here I want to remind you about the limitations of this popular signal before taking action. After all, what gets us into trouble is not what we don't know. It's what we know for sure that just ain't so. Toward the end, I will also describe a few other alternative signals and our investment actions (especially in bonds).

Tesla Q3 watch out for $175 and Microsoft fair valued at $220

Tesla Q3 watch out for $175 Based on the price movements caused by its 2022 Q3 delivery and AI day, I foresee Tesla stock a $175-$250 trading window in the near future (till the Q4 delivery). I see more downside than upside in the near term. Although a $175 price, if reached, would represent an excellent entry point for both swing trading and long-term holding. As detailed in this full-length article on Seeking Alpha (link below), a $175 price offers good etnry point for both short-term swing trading and long-term holding. For short term swing trading, the $175 price, if reached due to jitter caused by its Q3 earnings report, would represent a 57% decline off its recent peak, closest to the largest retraction of 60% only during the COVID fire sale. https://seekingalpha.com/article/4545981
