      $RKLB 20260116 2.0 CALL$ Ok so this was the very first options trade I wrote, over a month ago. As you can see I went long, jan 2026, and paid $2.50 for a $2 Right to buy. I have a huge amount of confidence in rocket lab going forward and my intention for this call is to hold it and excise it. Well that was my original intention. But woot, it's now officially in the money today. I'm clearly a bunny when it comes to options. And loving the comments I get from you guys that help me to expand my knowledge. I'm thinking and have actually since this first option trade... looked to cheaper and shorter term trades, but I'm pleased to see the first one, and actually all of my calls so far being in positive territory now. But this trade

      Yes I'll be looking to buy more, but not the stock more likely calls. The other item that has come to my attention is that nvidias new AI chips are apparently very very greedy on power, so maybe another long term play is power stocks. Look at where data centres are concentrated and buy into power companies that support those areas. This is going to take some research but I think it's worth it. @Tiger_chat @TigerPM @Daily_Discussion @TigerPicks

      So, i believe the biggest issue fundamental investors have is the information they rely on. Often, more often than you think, it's actually wrong, or sometimes it's just calculated in a way you didn't realise. I will use two cases to illustrate, from one investor class... the dividend investor. I look at data every day, and dividend investors are looking for consistent and growing company dividend over time. Personally I want a dividend stock to be doing both. At least once a week, information about the stock I invest in is actually wrong. #arcc last week for eg on one site told me it paid a dividend of only 3 cents per share during 2 quarters of last year, totally wrong. Checking other sources quickly confirmed it to be totally wrong. Moral of the story... don't trust one source of data,

      Great questions. I believe stock market "rebels" are rebels because the look outside the square. I wouldn't consider myself a rebel. Instead I'd like to suggest I notice stuff that most don't.  On that note I've shared 3 screenshots below. These screenshots are of my youngest son and my two grandchildren's Portfolios, that I set up. I started them all out with $100, and put $5 In every week, plus a bit more on birthdays and Christmas. Started the sons one later, that's why his portfolio is smaller. But as you look at the pics below you will quickly note that some investments in the same stocks have significantly different returns. You will probably also get brain freeze over the diversity of stocks I have them in. But that's another story.  So getting to the point. I manage my po

      I would sum up my 2025 investment journey as the year of Chuck Norris. The wide monthly swings ment I had to have balls of steel. I'm ok with this, a number of my investments  are growth stocks with crazy betas.  So I'm 55, if I had an investment advisor they would call me crazy. That's why I don't have an investment advisor.  2 years ago I had approximately $30k in retirement savings and $10k available to invest via tiger trade. My thinking back then was do I do what I should do and just invest in "safe" low yield stuff. Problem with that strategy was that at retirement age I'd be lucky to have $100k. No way was that going to be enough. So I needed to go against the norm. But also needed to mitigate the risk somehow. So I've done just that. My total portfolio is now approac

      $AST SpaceMobile, Inc.(ASTS)$ so this stock hit a new high for me. My DCA is around $25, so it's basically tripled since I started investing in it. So what to do now? It's quite a volatile stock, so I could swing trade. Sell now on highs, hope it drops and buy it back. No, it's a long term investment for me. Even though it's way overpriced in my opinion, in the long term it's cheap comparatively. I do hope it drops, I'll just buy more

      $Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ So to sum up my investments in 2025, well as the memes below illustrate, I'm not bothered. So I call myself the emotional investor. I don't often explain my principles behind emotional investment. Usually it's very subtle. so today in this post I'll explain one rule of emotional investment that has more than 10x my portfolio. And I will be on point regarding the topic... which is about volatility and uncertainty. For an emotional investor, uncertainty creates opportunity. The street hates uncertainty, basically a stock with high levels of uncertainty gets taken out back and gets shot in the head. On the other side is certainly. Stocks like $Realty Income(O)$ that have paid and

      Iy really means nothing if the S&P fell on Monday. Days are irrelevant, so are weeks, even months. And let's face it, most are on holiday atm so everything that happens will be based on low volumes. So don't worry bout a thing.  I invest in companies with a 1 to 3 year outlook Minimum. to make meaningful predictions beyond that timeframe is pure conjecture. Example, 10 years from now will $McDonald's(MCD)$  still be the world's biggest burger maker? Well actually McDonalds doesn't make burgers. It owns property and collects franchise fees from franchises that make burgers. So will they be doing that in ten years from now, or will they bulldoze all their restaurants and build high rise apartments and hotels. I know I'm being

Needham analyst Ryan Koontz just reiterated a Buy rating and aggressively raised the price target from $63 to $90. With the stock currently trading at $76.68, we are standing at a critical juncture.

      So I got into gold in January this year. Brought into $Santana Minerals Ltd(SMI.AU)$. I actually didn't buy it because I thought gold was going To sky rocket. I brought it because I saw the long term potential for it to provide excellent returns. To be fair Santana (an Australian company) is not profitable yet, it has proven reserves of gold and the license to mine in the otago gold fields of New Zealand. While it's yet to start production, there is plenty of cash on hand to build the necessary infrastructure to start mining next year. And their business case when I purchased stock was based on a gold price of $3,500 to $3,800 an ounce. add to that serious management experience and the company is a no brainer for me. If you look at the graphs be

      10 AI Stocks for 2026!

      @AfraSimon：
      My thesis is that, as 2024 and 2025 were largely dominated by AI infrastructure, 2026 will be the year in which companies that apply AI to generate real value will get appreciation from Mr. Market.For this reason, I have decided to release a list of 10 AI stocks for 2026.However, I also see 3 AI infrastructure stocks doing quite well.Let’s take a look.1. $IREN Ltd(IREN)$ Market Cap: $10BP/S: 14IREN is an Australian technology company that develops and operates bitcoin mining and AI data centers, primarily focused on serving Hyperscalers.IREN's Strategic Pivot: A High-Stakes Bet on AI InfrastructureThe stock has fallen 56% from its all-time high on November 5.
