I'm still trying to wrap my head around the whole tariff war thing, but if I had to take away one thing from this wild ride, it's the importance of diversification. I took a closer look at my portfolio and realized it's super heavy on US tech stocks. I have a small position in KWEB (Chinese tech, I think?) and YINN to balance it out, but I knew I needed to spread my bets even more. So, on Liberation Day (whatever that means), I decided to take a chance and buy the dip by opening a position in $Vanguard Total International Stock ETF(VXUS)$ . From what I understand, VXUS is a basket of great global companies, but specifically excludes US, which I think is a smart way to diversify.

$ProShares Bitcoin ETF(BITO)$ After Powell-induced sell-off, the ProShares Bitcoin ETF ($BITO) is regaining its footing, and I'm loving the rebound. With a modest position of just 1 share, the juicy dividend has already covered my costs.

$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ and $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ have reportedly agreed to pay the US government a 15% revenue share on sales of certain AI chips to China. This arrangement allows them to obtain export licenses for their chips, specifically Nvidia's H20 and AMD's MI308, which were developed to comply with US export restrictions. *Key Points:* - *Revenue Share:* Nvidia and AMD will pay 15% of their revenue from sales of these chips to the US government. - *Export Licenses:* The US government has started issuing licenses to Nvidia and AMD, enabling them to sell their chips to China. - *Chip Specifications:* The H20 and MI308 chips are designed to meet US export restrictions while still providing si

not gonna lie, this is an accidental win! I'm still learning the ropes, and my strategy is pretty simple. On a red day, I like to sell puts on a counter I'm bullish on to earn some premium income from the volatility. I was expecting gold to keep rallying after "Liberation Day," but I needed a red counter to sell puts on. That's why I chose an inverse gold ETF$Direxion Daily Gold Miners Index Bear 2X Shares(DUST)$ , which I thought would keep dropping. So, I sold puts on $DUST 20250516 31.0 PUT$ with a super low strike price that I didn't think would get hit. But, guess what? $Direxion Daily Gold Miners Index Bull 2X Shares(NUGT)$ </

My portfolio took a big hit on Monday, March 10th, when the Nasdaq plunged. I've known that my portfolio lacks diversity, too tech-centric. It took a big dip for me to take action. I opened a position in $Direxion Daily FTSE China Bull 3X Shares(YINN)$ on the same week. YINN provides 3x daily leveraged exposure to the FTSE China 50 Index, tracking Chinese equities. China has been surging since the Lunar New Year. Now I hope my portfolio has some sort of geographic diversity to cushion tech red days.

$NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$  is investing $5 billion for a ~4% stake in $Intel(INTC)$ at $23.28/share, signaling a strategic partnership rather than just financial support. The deal includes collaboration on AI infrastructure, custom Intel CPUs for Nvidia, and tighter CPU-GPU integration for future AI PCs. It boosts Intel's credibility and capital at a critical time while giving Nvidia more control over upstream silicon strategy — a notable shift amid growing competition with $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ and reliance on $Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing(TSM)$ .
