To The Moon

Bond markets showed increasing skepticism about the Fed delivering two more rate cuts this year. Currently, traders see only about a 20% chance that the Fed will keep rates unchanged in November or December. Even after last Friday’s strong U.S. jobs report, the swaps market still suggests that by the end of the year, the Fed will cut rates by over 50 basis points, potentially through two consecutive cuts.This week, U.S. Treasury bonds fell. Bloomberg's U.S. Bond Index is set for a fourth straight week of declines, marking the worst performance since April. The 10-year Treasury yield is back above 4%, while the 30-year yield hit 4.41%, the highest since July 30.This shift reflects a string of mixed economic reports from the U.S., which have failed to give the Fed a strong reason to ease mon

$NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$ is once again leading tech stocks and taking the broader market to new highs.There are two main factors that have affected NVIDIA sentiment recently:Jen-Hsun Huang's reduction in his holdings.But according to a Barron's blurb, he has already completed his share of the previously announced reduction;Blackwell expectations.According to $Morgan Stanley(MS)$ projections, in Q4 alone, NVIDIA could earn about $10 billion in revenue from Blackwell chips alone.This can be partly understood as incremental revenue with higher margins.In fact, we can see that since the stock split, NVIDIA stock has gone back and forth for two cycles with gradually decreasing volatility.From a technical point of vie

BREAKING FROM BLOOMBERG: OPENAI PITCHED THE WHITEHOUSE ON BUILDING 5-GIGAWATT DATA CENTERS AND CEO SAM ALTMAN MET WITH WHITE HOUSE OFFICIALS EALIER THIS MONTH. Two things are becoming obvious: First, Sam Altman seems to be in all the important conversations around AI. Whether it's getting ChatGPT to be the default for the new iPhone or convincing the White House to care more about building data centers... Second, we need more energy. We needed it yesterday. If we are going to build AGI, we just need more data centers. Now the $MSFT Blackrock new $30B fund continues to make more sense. The Microsoft $CEG Energy deal makes more sense. $AAPL & $NVDA deciding to invest in the new OpenAI $150B funding round makes more sense. Also, $TSLA Tesla energy continues to be underrated as a segment

arren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway, $BRK.B, has sold an additional $863 million of Bank of America,$Bank of America(BAC)$  , stock.Buffet is laughing all the way out of his bank. Does he knows something we don’t ? Why is he liquidating so much and holding the cash ?  

Fed officials Bostic and Neel Kashkari both indicated that the Fed may implement two more 25bps rate cuts this year. However, the interest rate futures market appears more aggressive, with bets on a 50 bps cut in November nearly equal to those for a 25 bps cut.Despite Powell stating last Wednesday that a 50 bps cut should not be considered normal, traders seem to interpret the Fed's stance differently. They generally believe the Fed is more dovish than it appears, leading to increasing expectations for a 50 bps cut in November. Several Wall Street banks have raised their year-end target for the S&P 500 to 6000 based on this dovish outlook.

On September 20, it was clear that there was a move that Rebalancing of $Technology Select Sector SPDR Fund(XLK)$ brought $Apple(AAPL)$ $10 billion in inflows, but the end of the day for AAPL was extremely bizarre.Half an hour before the close, AAPL saw a massive amount of money slamming the market in the face of other negative sentiment in the broader market;Trading volume in the last 10 minutes exceeded 2 million shares, more than the entire day's trading volume, and the day's trading volume was four times that of weekdays;The only thing that can offset the buying by passive index funds is the strength of institutional investors.The number of Apple shareholders who have the ability to reduce their holdin

Whether the FED cut the rates or not doe not matter to me. Markets move up and down daily regardless of the FED moves. In this respect, trade momentum stocks especially those magnificient  AI stocks namely AAPL, META,MSFT, NVDA, GOOGL, AMD, TSLA, AMZN. The prices of these stocks gyrate alot at each tradimg session and after doing your due dilogence wait for the lows and pick them up and sell off when they move upwards again on the same ttading day. Even small profits made by doing these swing trades all add up to a good profit for the day. For myself, scalping for profits is better than to buy and hold to wait for a bigger profit which may take a long time to mature. Yes, someone did stae that the big money is in the waiting but I would rather take in smaller profits daily a

I currently hold TLT and plan to buy more if its price drops. My strategy is focused on the long term as I believe TLT will perform well over time. In addition to that, I am actively looking to diversify my portfolio and ARKK is on my radar as a potential investment.

Yesterday, after Fed announced a 50bps rate cut, US stocks experienced a roller-coaster ride. Powell’s speech suggests that the 25bps intended for July could be included in the September cut. However, Powell also expressed a hawkish stance, indicating that the Fed won’t continue cutting rates at this pace.50 bps rate cut is a significant catalyst for the market.The most likely beneficiaries of the rate cut are U.S. Treasury bonds and small-cap growth stocks.

With the Federal Reserve poised to release its “rate-cut magic,” small-cap sectors are gearing up to seize the opportunities presented by the latest round of interest rate reductions. The Fed’s decision to cut the federal funds rate by 50 basis points to a range of 4.75% to 5.00% marks the first rate cut since 2020, following a series of rate hikes that had elevated rates to their highest level in 23 years.While the Russell 2000 index has surged by 5% in anticipation of the rate cut, not all small-cap stocks will benefit equally from the lower borrowing costs.

The 50 basis point rate cut to start the cycle surprised at least half of investors.There are 25 basis points is the compensation for July.Many investors in the market point of view is that July can open the rate cut, and Powell in order to "stabilize" hard to see two more months of data off to September.The 50 basis points, in fact, is 25 basis points in September, plus 25 basis points in July compensation!Even 50 basis points, still behind the curve.According to the Fed's own point of view, this time is "calibrated policy stance" - do not want to fall behind the curve, but also do not want to signal the risk of recession, so the action to see at first glance seems to be very large, in fact, just behind the market too much to add.For the first time did not give the market "clear signal".P

In the early hours of September 19, the Fed announced a 50 basis point rate cut, marking its first reduction since March 2020.Since 1984, the U.S. has experienced six rate cut cycles:1984-1986: 26 cuts over 23 months, totaling 562.5 bps.1989-1992: 24 cuts over 38 months, totaling 681.25 bps.1995-1998: 7 cuts over 40 months, totaling 125 bps.2001-2003: 13 cuts over 29 months, totaling 550 bps.2007-2008: 10 cuts over 14 months, totaling 500 bps.2019-2020: 5 cuts over 7 months, totaling 225 bps.In all six cycles, the 10-year Treasury yield declined. After the rate cut cycle ended, the yield typically rebounded.
