To The Moon

$Microsoft(MSFT)$——ChatGPT, Copilot, Blizzard The emergence of ChatGPT has changed the landscape of the internet and also altered the way people live and work. One of the biggest winners is Microsoft, one of the major shareholders of OpenAI. In addition to increasing the usage of its own browser and enhancing the competitiveness of its cloud services, embedding ChatGPT directly into its Office and other products has directly boosted the company's revenue. Furthermore, the $69 billion acquisition of Activision Blizzard this year has further strengthened Microsoft's position in the gaming industry. $NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$——+238%, H200, China-Ban The rise of AI has led to a sudden surge in research and development demand, causing a resurgence in chip demand from the previous shortage for "mining rigs" a year ago. Its high-end H200 chip has been in short supply, and NVIDIA's data center revenue has surged for multiple quarters in a row. This explosive demand growth is expected to continue at least until mid-2025. However, the U.S. government's ban on high-end chips to China has caused NVIDIA to suffer some market losses, but the company is preparing alternative solutions. $Coinbase Global, Inc.(COIN)$ Due to high inflation, the Federal Reserve had to significantly raise interest rates, leading to the withdrawal of funds from many risky assets. However, with the end of the interest rate hike cycle, risky assets have become popular again, and Crypto's industry has benefited as a result. $iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF(TLT)$——High inflation, 5%+YTM Although TLT's annual performance is only 2%, it experienced a sharp decline after the significant interest rate hike at the beginning of the year, followed by a sharp rise towards the end of the year, all due to the surge and fall of long-term U.S. bond yields. The almost 5% yield on the 30-year U.S. bond was a nightmare for almost all other assets. However, with the Federal Reserve's change in stance, expectations of interest rate cuts in 2024 are likely to make U.S. bonds one of the most attractive assets. $Apple(AAPL)$——3 Trillion, iPhone 15, M3 Although Apple has not fully enjoyed the benefits of the AI market, its unique hardware presence makes it difficult for competitors to reach. Despite the market's low expectations for the new iPhone, early sales have remained strong. The new M3 self-developed chip will further enhance functionality. Additionally, the rapidly growing high-profit service revenue has increased Apple's profit margin, allowing for higher cash flow to repurchase its own stock. The upcoming 2024 release of the VR product Vision Pro will also become a new growth point. $Pinduoduo Inc.(PDD)$——Temu on Top, Top of China-Tech Pinduoduo's market value has become the top among Chinese concept stocks, which may have been unexpected for many investors. However, with domestic e-commerce platforms repeatedly exceeding expectations and reaching new highs, the overseas Temu platform has expanded rapidly, even putting pressure on established e-commerce platforms like Amazon. Pinduoduo has achieved new highs amid doubts and has become one of the few shining stars among Chinese concept stocks this year. $Li Auto(LI)$——L9, Yearly over 300000 Among Chinese EV companies, Li Auto is a stand-out winner in 2023. With the release and strong sales of several new car models, it easily surpassed its target of 300,000 units in November. Li Auto is one of the few Chinese concept stocks with a return of over 60% in recent years. $SVB Financial Group(SIVBQ)$ ——Marurity mismatch, Banks Crisis Silicon Valley Bank collapsed, which was also driven by inflation. Due to the rapid rate hikes by the Federal Reserve, the bank's asset side quickly declined, making it unable to match corresponding liabilities. The liquidity problem at Silicon Valley Bank was just the first spark of instability in the industry. This problem was more pronounced in smaller banks, while larger banks were spared due to higher coverage and ample liquidity. After its assets were emptied, the stock price of Silicon Valley Bank also vanished. $Sea Ltd(SE)$——Growth Trap The once highly regarded Singaporean Sea Ltd encountered consecutive declines in growth and business contraction, leading to significant stock price declines for two consecutive years, becoming a typical growth stock trap. The gaming business faced a downturn, and the e-commerce business struggled to prove its successful business model due to long-term losses. After scaling back its operations in South America, the Southeast Asian market also faced more intense competition. The situation facing Sea Ltd remains severe. $Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$——The Wars Big data is a technology that can benefit humanity or be used in humanity's self-destruction. Palantir, as an important alternative technology stock in data security, has experienced significant stock growth this year." Have you traded any of these stocks before?
