I think the long-feared (not awaited)  market correction is still some wsy off. Still the market is very like to be choppy with lot of sideways movementbut a drastic correction is still not here - it depends on how the US poll scenario develops.  A series of major and minor adjustments would be vkming before  the next move. Hedging my portfolio risk will be through diversification and stop loss. Will the stock market rebound this week - hopefully so but the choppy movement is more likely of a normal for some months.

$NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$ 's journey to be the "world's largest stock" lasted only one day.After it became the world's most valuable public company on June 18th with a market capitalization of $3.34 trillion, it retreated in flames and fell below $3 trillion. Looking at the changes in the market over the past week, it's clear that the pace of sector rotation has also given consumption, energy, and financials a chance to catch their breath and rally.I.

Recover cause we have micron and Nvidia this Wednesday to hold the market

S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 managed to eke out 0.63% and 0.21% returns respectively last week. Some notable losers last week include Nvidia (-4.03%), Broadcom (-4.4%), Apple (-2.35%), and Meta (-1.86%). Overall, there was a mini crash in the tech space last Thursday and Friday, but major US indices still managed to rise during the week. Important events this week include Nvidia's annual shareholder meeting in 2024 and Micron's earnings results on Wednesday, the US presidential debate between Trump and Biden, GDP and Unemployment Claims on Thursday, and PCE on Friday. I am cautiously optimistic this week: 1) US stocks usually do not peak in the month of June: Since 1950, the S&P 500 generally hits its yearly high in December. It has never hit a year-high in June.

where got correction? party's just getting started. after a new ATH, market must rest a bit before rising again.

First of all, avoid buying stocks during a downtrend. This will help prevent you getting sucked into a bear market trap. Reversals can be particularly severe at this time. It is also risky to hold on to a stock during a stock market correction. This is because drawdowns on major indexes pull the majority of stocks down with it. To make money over the long-term, protecting profits is crucial. Consider selling your weaker holdings, especially if you are holding a small loss or are at break-even. It is all to easy to switch off and become disengaged from the market when a correction is underway. This is a dangerous mistake because a market bottom can catch you unprepared. One should be keeping a close eye on the market and building a robust watchlist of top stocks. Look for names that are sho

$SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$  $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$   Tech stocks brought in $8B+ last week... I think this has to do with JP Morgan, BofA, Goldman Sachs, and Evercore ISI turning bullish and raising $SPY targets to $5600-$6000. Majority of the S&P gains this year came from large cap tech, and if earnings are not slowing down, it's just hard for funds to not have more exposure to them. If Q2 earnings continue to do well, these stocks may not burst out to the upside, but they will not be sold off aggressively, requiring some level of exposure. Rates coming down will be another tailwind to only help tech stocks continue to gain mom

As we navigate through the market, the U.S. stock market, particularly the S&P 500 index $S&P 500(.SPX)$  , exhibits signs of strain. A deeper dive into market dynamics reveals that the recent rallies are increasingly driven by a narrow band of large-cap technology stocks, with giants like Apple and Nvidia$NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$   at the forefront. Despite the S&P 500 hitting 31 record highs this year, a significant portion of this performance is attributable to these tech behemoths.

#Inflation #Econimic The recent market dip has sent shivers down the spines of investors, conjuring up fears of a long-awaited correction. However, a closer look at the economic landscape suggests that this may be nothing more than a temporary gust of wind rather than a full-blown storm. While the market's tumble is undeniable, it's crucial to assess the broader economic context. Amidst the backdrop of high inflation, the U.S. economy has shown remarkable resilience, defying expectations of a hard landing. Key economic indicators, including employment, consumer spending, and manufacturing activity, remain robust, painting a picture of an economy that is still very much in motion. Moreover, the Federal Reserve's interest rate hikes, often cited as a potential catalyst for a correction, have

What’s the probability of a recession within the next 12 months? According to the Fed model using the US Treasury yield curve, there is a 52% chance of a recession over the next year. This is down from the 71% peak recorded in May 2023. Over the last 40 years, each time this probability has exceeded 30% the US economy experienced an economic downturn within 2 years. Meanwhile, the yield curve has been inverted for over 700 days, the longest stretch in history. A soft landing may still be difficult to attain.

Recover cause we have micron and Nvidia this Wednesday to hold the market

Big-Tech’s PerformanceThis week, tech companies led the index to new highs, but also caused concern among some investors. The amount of money pooled in Nvidia in the short term is very large, amid important events such as index shifts, while Apple should pull back for a potential $10 billion outflow.Through the close of trading on June 21, the best performers over the past week were $NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$ +4.46%, $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ +2.41%, $Microsoft(MSFT)$ +1.05%, $Amazon.com(AMZN)$ -0.42%, $Alphabet(GOOG)$ $Alphabet(GOOGL)$ -0.84%,

On 20 June (Thursday), we saw the stock market opened with gains, which was driven by strong performance from $NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$ shares which went up as much as 3.8% earlier. S&P 500 surpass the 5,500 level for the first time, thanks to Nvidia earlier gains. The Nasdaq also got an early gains of 0.4% but only to close the day session with a 0.8% decline. Major indices hit session lows as NVDA shares turned negative for the day. Heavily-Weighted Stocks Decline Influence Index Performance There were also declines in other heavily-weighted stocks that influenced index performance significantly. Significant declines from names like Apple (AAPL), down 2.2%, Broadcom (AVGO), down 3.8%, and Microsoft (MSFT), down 0.1%. Many stocks saw a pullback du

Overview: As U.S. big tech stocks continue their blistering rally, including Nvidia Corp's $NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$  stunning 155% year-to-date surge, concerns are mounting over potential market overheating. Despite the S&P 500’s $S&P 500(.SPX)$  impressive 14.6% rise this year, the gains have been predominantly concentrated in the information technology and communications sectors. This has left other market segments trailing, prompting questions about whether the market is poised for a brief adjustment or a more significant correction, and how investors can hedge against these risks.

Overview: In recent discussions, analysts from Stifel, Nicolaus & Co have shared a bullish yet cautionary perspective on the S&P 500's $S&P 500(.SPX)$   trajectory. They project that the index could soar to new heights, potentially reaching 6000 points by the end of 2024. However, this optimism is tempered by warnings of an impending market correction, reminiscent of past bubbles. Barry Bannister, a key analyst at Stifel, forecasts a significant retreat in the S&P 500 to 4800 points by mid-2026, signaling a potential decline of about 20% from its projected peak. Technology Stocks: Highs and Lows Ahead Technology stocks have been instrumental in driving the S&P 500's upward momentum, with investors flocking to th
