$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ Framing the final weeks of 2025
At this stage of the calendar, the debate is not about who is “right” — it is about risk-adjusted asymmetry.
Bull side — still supportive
Fed’s path is now well-telegraphed; cuts anchor cost of capital lower into 1H25.
Q3/Q4 earnings have, on balance, leaned to upside revisions.
Cloud + AI infra spending shows resilience (capex guidance still rising).
This means the floor is stronger than pessimists admit.
Bear side — tactical fragility
Valuations are extended; forward multiples are not cheap.
Positioning is no longer light — many already chased beta in Q3.
Year-end VaR adjustments and tax-loss harvesting can inject disorderly flows.
My characterisation: The upside is still possible — but it is now incremental, not explosive.
So the “more intelligent” question shifts from:
> Will indices make new highs?
to:
> Is the next +3% worth the risk of a -5% shock?
Practical navigation (professional tone-down, not hype)
Investor posture Appropriate stance
Already in profit scale-out partials, keep exposure but trim tail-risk
Underweight risk use pullbacks rather than chase strength
Hedging short-dated index put spreads become more attractive than outright shorts
A balanced Q4-close approach:
keep core exposure intact;
hedge the tail, not the base case.
There is still some room to climb — but this is the season to run with a seatbelt on.
