From my perspective, this rally is more than just earnings — it confirms AI demand is still strong and supply-constrained. $Alphabet(GOOGL)$ Cloud surge and solid results from $Amazon.com(AMZN)$ and $Apple(AAPL)$ show hyperscalers aren’t slowing, just reallocating capital more efficiently. On capex, I don’t see a bubble — I see barriers forming. Despite concerns around $Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$ and $Microsoft(MSFT)$ , the key takeaway is unchanged: demand exceeds supply, and constraints are real, not cyclical excess. To me, this looks like early-stage infrastructure
My long weekend type: Family Type. My first stop: A nearby garden. One-line check-in: Slow walks, fresh air, and little moments that matter. This May Day long weekend, I kept things simple and meaningful by heading out for a stroll in a nearby garden with my wife and baby. No packed itinerary, no rushing — just enjoying the greenery, the quiet paths, and watching my little one take in the world. Sometimes the best plans are the ones where you don’t really plan much at all. It’s a nice reminder that not every weekend needs to be “maximized.” Slowing down, being present, and spending time with family hits differently — especially when life usually moves so fast. @TigerEvents
This quarter confirms to me that AI CapEx is real and accelerating. When Alphabet, Amazon, Microsoft, and Meta Platforms guide ~$725B in 2026 spending, I see strong upstream demand visibility — which reinforces my bullish view on $Seagate Technology PLC(STX)$ & $SanDisk Corp.(SNDK)$ as key AI data beneficiaries. For $Alphabet(GOOGL)$ , I see this as a durable, high-quality beat. Cloud growth at 63% shows real AI monetization, and strong cash flow despite higher CapEx removes margin concerns. I’m comfortable assigning a premium multiple here. On $Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$ , I’m not exiting — the drop looks like
My stock in focus today is $Alphabet(GOOGL)$ , after a standout earnings report that clearly beat expectations. Revenue grew 22% year-on-year, and the stock jumped 6.5% after hours—showing the market is starting to recognize its strength as a major AI beneficiary. The biggest highlight was Google Cloud, which surged 63% with operating income tripling. This signals a key shift: AI is not just driving growth, but also profitability. Management emphasized that enterprise AI is now the main growth engine, further supported by moves like selling its TPU chips directly. Overall, this reinforces Alphabet’s full-stack AI strategy—from infrastructure to applications. With strong demand, rising adoption of Gemini, and sustained investment capacity, the c
$Seagate Technology PLC(STX)$ results confirm we’re in a supply-constrained, AI-driven upcycle. What stands out to me is the discipline — no capacity expansion despite strong demand, which reinforces pricing power. The sharp EPS re-rating shows the market is still underestimating how tight this cycle can get. That’s why the read-through to $SanDisk Corp.(SNDK)$ matters. Different tech, same demand driver — hyperscaler AI capex. With $1,100 largely priced in, my year-end target is $1,200–$1,300, depending on whether the $48 cycle EPS gets revised higher. The key catalyst is LTA prepayments. If SanDisk locks in multi-year contracts, valuation can shift toward $1,500. Silence from SK Hynix and
From my perspective, the rate decision itself doesn’t matter — the pause is priced. What matters is whether Jerome Powell signals continuity or an exit. If he stays on as Governor, markets get stability; if he leaves entirely, that introduces uncertainty, which is far more disruptive than rates staying higher. That leadership clarity could matter more than any single data point in the near term. On Kevin Warsh, I think the market is too optimistic. He’s not meaningfully more dovish than Powell, so if cuts don’t materialize, equities could face a sharp repricing — especially with positioning already stretched. My bigger concern is the macro shift. With OpenAI missing expectations and yields rising, the market is moving from FOMO to FAFO. If growth and liquidity both weaken, the AI trade co
$Micron Technology(MU)$ My stock in focus for DCA right now is Micron Technology, and the main reason is the clear cyclical recovery in the memory market. After a deep downturn in DRAM and NAND pricing over the past couple of years, supply discipline has improved and demand is starting to rebound, especially from data centers and AI-related workloads. This creates a classic setup where entering gradually makes more sense than trying to time the exact bottom. Another key driver behind my DCA approach is Micron's strong positioning in the AI supply chain. High-bandwidth memory (HBM), which is critical for AI accelerators, is becoming a major growth engine, and Micron is one of the few players globally that can compete in this space. As AI infrast
My stock in focus today is $NIO Inc.(NIO)$ $NIO Inc.(NIO.SI)$ $NIO-SW(09866)$ , after its Onvo L80 SUV pre-sales drove shares up about 8% in Hong Kong. Priced at 245,800 yuan — lower than the L90 and even cheaper under the BaaS model — the L80 highlights a more aggressive push into the mass market, signaling NIO’s intent to boost demand amid rising competition. Strategically, the L80 supports NIO’s shift toward volume growth through flexible offerings, including LiDAR and pure-vision variants. Combined with practical positioning around space and family use, this suggests NIO is prioritizing scalability over purely premium branding. The key test now is execu
I think $DBS(D05.SI)$ will deliver a decent set of Q1 results, even if it’s not a blowout quarter. The bar has clearly been reset lower after the FY25 miss & with NIM compression already well flagged, lot of downside feels priced in. What matters is whether wealth management & trading income can provide some upside surprise, especially with safe-haven flows coming into Singapore. From a positioning standpoint, I don’t expect the stock to break out aggressively. Rate cuts & softer SORA will likely keep a lid on sentiment & I don’t think this is the kind of quarter that drives a sharp re-rating. That said, as long as guidance remains stable and management doesn’t sound overly cautious on macro risks, the market should react positi
$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ breaking $5T is impressive, but I’m not chasing it. What concerns me more is market structure: leadership is highly concentrated, VIX is rising off lows, and breadth is weakening. That makes the rally feel less stable even with NVDA driving new highs. I still respect its execution and CUDA ecosystem, but expectations are already very stretched at this level. On valuation, I understand the argument that it looks “cheap” versus other Mag-7 names on forward earnings, especially with strong CY27 projections. But the key risk for me is not the multiple — it’s the certainty embedded in long-term growth assumptions like $400B+ FCF and sustained 70% AI
