Gold, Silver, Platinum, and Palladium Surge: Go Long or Short? Which ETFs to Choose?
$XAU/USD(XAUUSD.FOREX)$ rises to a fresh all-time high near $4,500, marking roughly the 50th record break this year and positioning both gold and silver for their strongest annual performance in more than four decades. $Silver - main 2603(SImain)$ passes $70!The latest surge has been driven by renewed bets that the Federal Reserve will deliver two rate cuts in 2026, alongside heightened geopolitical risk, with major banks including Goldman Sachs arguing that structural support for gold remains intact into next year.While the U.S. dollar has remained superficially stable during the surge in metals prices, this does not necessarily contradict the broader “currency debasement” narrative taking sh
Hi, tigers! Here is Part 3 of MA: MA & Candlesticks. Let’s start this week’s lessons!1. Dragon Rising from the Sea: Single Bullish Candle Piercing Multiple MAsThe Pattern: This rare and powerful formation occurs when a single, robust bullish candle (typically a large green Marubozu) rises from a low position and decisively cuts through multiple aligned Moving Averages (e.g., short, medium, and long-term lines) simultaneously.Market Implication: This serves as an explosive reversal signal. It indicates that a dormant or consolidating market has suddenly awakened with overwhelming demand, clearing multiple layers of technical resistance in a single session.Mechanism: By conquering the "average costs" of short-term, medium-term, and long-term traders all at once, this move unifies market
The Biggest “Quadruple Witching” Coming! Can S&P 500 Hold 6,800?
This Friday, Wall Street faces a record-breaking options expiry—a total of $7.1 trillion! About $5 trillion tied to $S&P 500(.SPX)$; About $880 billion tied to individual stocksAccording to Goldman Sachs, roughly $5 trillion of this exposure is tied to S&P 500, while another $880 billion is linked to individual stocks. The extraordinary concentration of these expiring contracts could amplify market volatility heading into year-end, with traders closely monitoring whether S&P 500 can hold the 6,800 level, a key battleground for bulls and bears. This December’s event surpasses all prior records, with zero-day-to-expiration (0DTE) options on the S&P 500 alone accounting for more than 62% of total option activity, highlighting the comp
Can MU Sustain the Rally? Too Late To Bet on Memory Stocks?
$S&P 500(.SPX)$ opened higher on Micron’s explosive earnings report, but quickly gave back some gains, as investors remain cautious ahead of the Bank of Japan’s rate decision on Friday. $Micron Technology(MU)$ itself jumped as much as 16% at the open before settling around +13%. Regardless, Micron was clearly the standout performer of the session.Micron delivered a clean beat: revenue, profits, cash flow, and profitability all exceeded expectations.EPS: $4.78; Revenue: $13.64B, up 57% year-over-year.

TA Education 7|NVDA Breaks Below 5-Day MA: Will Selloff Accelerate?
Hi, tigers! Here is Part 2 of MA: another 4 trading principles. Let’s start this week’s lessons!1. Minor Breakdown: Fleeting Pullback OpportunityThe Pattern: This occurs when the price momentarily dips below a rising Moving Average but quickly recovers and closes back above it. Crucially, the Moving Average line itself maintains its upward slope throughout the event.Market Implication: This signals a classic "shakeout" or "bear trap" rather than a genuine reversal. It suggests that the dip was an emotional overreaction that cleared out weak hands, leaving the primary uptrend intact and poised to resume.Mechanism: The brief drop triggers stop-loss orders situated just below the MA, creating a pool of liquidity. Institutional traders use this opportunity to accumulate positions at a "discoun
Is Tesla’s Dec 17 Record High A Replay Of History?
$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ climbed to a record high of $489 on Tuesday, lifting its market capitalization to roughly $1.58 trillion. The rally has been driven by renewed optimism around Robotaxi development, prompting some on Wall Street to reassess Tesla beyond its traditional automaker label.How do analysts view Robotaxi development?Wedbush’s Dan Ives argues that 2026 could mark a true inflection point, as Robotaxi and autonomous driving begin broader commercialization. He projects Tesla’s valuation could exceed $2 trillion, with an upside case toward $3 trillion. Longtime Tesla bull Baron has echoed this view, calling 2026 a potential breakout year as investors increasingly frame Tesla as a leader in real-world AI rather than just a car company.Morga

Santa Rally in Doubt? Will BOJ Rate Hike Deepen Market Downturn?
U.S. November employment data released on Tuesday showed the unemployment rate unexpectedly rising to 4.6%. While still relatively low by historical standards, it marks the highest level since early 2021. Data from the University of Michigan indicate that as of November, most consumers expect unemployment to continue rising over the next year.According to Morgan Stanley, if this week’s U.S. labor data show moderate softness, it could increase the probability of further Federal Reserve rate cuts, which would be supportive for equities. “We are firmly back in the ‘good news is bad news, bad news is good news’ regime,” Wilson wrote in a note. He explained that while a strong labor market is positive for the economy, it reduces the likelihood of rate cuts in 2026.Against the backdrop of softer
