How to trade after rate cut expectations are dashed?
Affected by the lower-than-expected guidance in $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ financial report and the market's dampened expectations for a rate cut in March, tech stocks continued to fall.
Among them, $Apple(AAPL)$ has fallen for six consecutive days, $Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$ dropped by 2.48%, $Alphabet(GOOG)$ financial report fell short of expectations, leading to a 7% decline, and even Microsoft, which exceeded expectations in its financial report, also dropped by 2.69%.
What triggered tech fall?
Is rate cut still possible in March?
The Fed will only cut rates when "it has gained greater confidence" that inflation will get to the 2% target. Powell says that "it is likely we don't have enough confidence to cut in March"
In other words, rate cuts aren't coming as quickly, as more inflation data is needed before a decision can be made.
How to trade tech stocks?
Stellar earnings from Apple might be the only solution as other positive factors have already been priced in.
What’s your choice?
Take profits to hold cash in your account
Sell covered calls to hedge
Buy puts to bet on significant declines in tech stocks
Sell puts to collect premiums during downturns
Hold onto good stocks and have faith in Apple and Meta earnings reports.

🌟🌟🌟Even though $Apple(AAPL)$
Apple's fundamentals have not changed. It is still a profitable company with a rock solid balance sheet and an excellent management team under Tim Cook.
Apple is also Warren Buffett's top holding on Berkshire Hathaway with 50% weightage. I will continue to dollar cost average into Apple and let the magic of compounding happen over time.
When there's fear in the markets it is time to be greedy!

$Apple(AAPL)$ Bearish not surprising it's on a downward trend. Most stocks are... $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ Bearish too been having a tough time...
Although they are trending down, there's still potential that they will bounce back. They have their loyal fans to hold on to their stock or perhaps buying more and when trending up sell at a good profits [USD] [USD] [USD]

最近多数股票表现不佳，苹果也不例外，虽然全球来看苹果依然是老大，但令投资者担忧的是，去年第四季度苹果在中国市场的智能手机出货量同比下降2.1%，一样不达预期。
苹果公司连续四个季度下滑，我预计这一季有望扭转下滑趋势。因为2023年苹果成为智能手机全球销量第一，这也是苹果首次超过三星登顶智能手机年度销量冠军，iPhone的强劲销售表现将为苹果巨额利润。
苹果公司每年大约减少3%的流通股。这一财务策略已经有效地提升了每股收益。通过股票回购，苹果向市场传递出积极的信号，表明其具有稳健的财务状况和强大的盈利能力。
最近重量级大股一再暴雷和一些不利消息影响股市，在这不明朗时刻，我暂时会保持观望不买入。不过长期看好$苹果(AAPL)$ $英伟达(NVDA)$$特斯拉(TSLA)$，我会留在$老虎证券(TIGR)$投资，我继续等待好时机，买入这些有价值的优质股票并长期持有。

Buying puts is trying to time the market with time decay working against us, it isnt advisable.
After significant decline, selling puts will then make sense to start accumulating great stocks at a discount
Great ariticle, would you like to share it?
