$MU$ Micron shorts covered, followed by a $50 million bullish call order. I joked earlier that Trump wanted to buy MU cheap — shorting it hard with big put positions, and that once those puts closed, it might be time to bottom-fish. Turns out that wasn't entirely a joke. On Tuesday's open, two of the most prominent short-dated bearish positions were closed: $MU 20260424 420.0 PUT$ $MU 20260424 400.0 PUT$ $MU 20260424 380.0 PUT$ Then, looking at open interest, a new position emerged: 29,000 contracts of the June 18th 400 call $MU 2026
Clean Tech Play $BE Rebounds Strongly, Bulls Eye $165+
$Bloom Energy Corp(BE)$ $Bloom Energy Corp (BE) Soared +13.37%: Clean Tech Stock Reclaims $135, Short Squeeze Suspected Latest Close Data: BE closed at $135.49 on 2026-03-31, surging +13.37% (+$15.98) on heavy volume. This marks a significant rebound from its 52-week low of $15.15, though it remains -25.1% below its 52-week high of $180.90. Core Market Drivers: The solid-state oxide fuel cell leader saw a powerful rally, potentially fueled by a short squeeze as recent short volume ratios spiked above 17%. Renewed optimism in the clean energy sector and positive institutional capital flows earlier in the week provided a supportive backdrop. Technical Analysis: Volume of 11.52M shares (VR 1.11) confirms strong buying interest. The 6-day RSI jumped to
Kenny Loh:Singapore REITs Monthly Update (23 March 2026)
Technical Analysis of FTSE ST REIT Index (FSTAS351020) FTSE ST Real Estate Investment Trusts (FTSE ST REIT Index) declined sharply from 721.34 to 664.56 (-7.87%) compared to the previous update, marking a decisive breakdown below the previous support at ~695. Over this period, the index has transitioned from consolidation into a clear downside impulse within 2 days, with price slicing through prior 695 support that had held multiple times since Sep 2025, likely due to the volatility brought about from the Iran war. On the downside, the next key support lies around 622, which previously acted as a base during earlier cycles. If selling momentum persists, these levels are likely to be tested. On the upside, any rebound is expected to face strong resistance at ~695, followed by ~725, whe
March Review & April Outlook: Is the Bottom Finally In?
Stocks down. Bonds down. Gold down. March 2026 was the month the playbook stopped working. March delivered something rarely seen: a true indiscriminate selloff. Traditional safe havens and risk assets fell together, leaving investors with almost nowhere to shelter. The numbers were stark — $NASDAQ(.IXIC)$ closed Q1 down 7.11%, $S&P 500(.SPX)$ off 4.63% — but the index figures only tell part of the story. $XAU/USD(XAUUSD.FOREX)$ briefly touched $4,100, then reversed hard. Silver cratered 27% in a single session on January 30th. The assets you'd normally rotate into when equities wobble... wobbled right along with them. So what actually happened? The M
$NEWP Pushes Above $4, Consolidation Before Next Leg?
$New Pacific Metals Corp.(NEWP)$ New Pacific Metals Corp. (NEWP) Jumps +9.52%: Breakout Above $4 Sets Stage for $4.25 Target Latest Close Data: Closed at $4.14 on 2026-03-31, up +9.52% (+$0.36). This places the stock 29.7% below its 52-week high of $5.89. Core Market Drivers: The surge appears driven by a combination of renewed investor interest in precious metals exploration and a potential technical breakout. Recent 5-day capital flow data shows a shift from net outflows to a net inflow of +71,300 units on 03-30, indicating returning buying pressure. Technical Analysis: Volume was strong at 866.5K shares, supporting the move higher. The 6-day RSI jumped to 61.94, moving from neutral towards overbought territory, signaling strong momentum. The MA
$AST SpaceMobile, Inc.(ASTS)$ $AST SpaceMobile, Inc.(ASTS) Soars +12.26%: Satellite Stock Reclaims $82, Short Squeeze in Play Latest Close Data Closed at $82.87 (ET 2026-03-31), up +12.26% (+$9.05). The stock is now ~36% below its 52-week high of $129.89. Core Market Drivers The significant price surge is likely fueled by a combination of a potential short squeeze (short volume ratio dropped to 8.15% on 03-30 from recent highs above 20%) and continued speculative interest in the satellite communications space. The company's pre-market and after-hours activity also indicated strong momentum. Technical Analysis Volume was robust at 15.14M shares (Volume Ratio: 1.08), confirming the breakout move.

This places the stock 31.2% below its 52-week high of $8.55. Core Market Drivers The surge appears driven by strong intraday buying pressure, with net capital inflow of ~$156k.

Technical Analysis Volume was elevated at 302.2k shares, providing conviction for the breakout. The RSI(6) jumped sharply to 59.16, indicating strong short-term momentum and moving out of overs

The stock is now ~20.7% below its 52-week high of $300.20. Core Market Drivers The powerful rally follows a period of net capital outflow over the past five trading days, suggesting today's move may be driven by a significant sentiment shift or a short squeeze, as evidenced by recent high short volume ratios. As a key player in photonics and compound semiconductors, its performance remains tied to industrial and tech sector demand. Technical Analysis Volume was solid at 6.15M shares (Volume Ratio: 0.89).

3 SGX Stocks Rising Despite Crash: Time to Buy or Too Late to Chase?
March has been rough for the Singapore market. Banks, gaming, and consumer stocks have all taken turns getting hit. But what’s interesting is this: while many stocks are falling, a few are quietly climbing. Among SGX blue chips and mainboard names, these three not only avoided the selloff but posted eye-catching gains: $AEM SGD(AWX.SI)$: +151% YTD $ST Engineering(S63.SI)$: hit a record high in mid-March (+31% YTD) $Keppel(BN4.SI)$ +15% YTD What’s behind their resilience?

How I Survive the Brutal Q1 Shakedown & My April 2026 Strategy 🌟🌟🌟As of April 1 2026, the market is catching its breath after a tough first quarter. The S&P500 has tumbled to 6,300, erasing its early year euphoria and marking a significant retreat from February highs. While March felt like a non stop horror movie for me, holding a diversified "bunker" of ETFs has been the difference between a total wipeout and a portfolio that is still remarkably in the green. The Hormuz Game: Did Trump Really Blink? I notice a shifting rhetoric from Trump. While he has set an April 6 deadline to "obliterate" Iran's energy infrastructure if the Strait of Hormuz isn't reopened, he has simultaneously pivoted to an "America First" stance on security. Trump has publicly told NAT

The stock's recent performance suggests a potential reversal from oversold conditions earlier in the week. Technical Analysis: The breakout was confirmed by strong volume (Volume Ratio: 1.69).

April 6 Deadline: What Should Investors Do? 🌟🌟🌟As of March 31 2026, the world is on a "tripwire". With the April 6 deadline nearing and no agreement in sight, the market is bracing for the possibility of Brent Crude Oil hitting USD 120 per barrel or higher if Iran's infrastructure is targeted. The Iranian Response to Trump's Threat: Total Asymmetric Retaliation Tehran has moved beyond rhetoric, preparing a response that could "irreversibly destroy" the global energy supply chain. Targeting Allies: Iran has threatened to "hammer" the oil and desalination infrastructure of US allies (Saudi Arabia, UAE and Kuwait) if its own power plants are hit. The Minefield Strategy: Reports indicate Iran has already begun planting naval mines in the Straits of Hormuz, effectively making

Calm Before the Storm? Markets Eye US Troop Movements
This past weekend was actually the calmest in recent weeks. Markets had expected the U.S. to deploy ground forces to seize Iran’s Kharg Island, but aside from strikes on Iranian steel plants, there was little major action. Overall, it was relatively quiet compared to prior weeks. However, actions of this scale alone by the U.S. and Israel are not enough to resolve the current blockade of the strait. The real turning point will come when the strait is reopened—that’s when a fundamental shift occurs. At present, the Pentagon appears to be aiming to replicate the rapid success seen during the 1990 Gulf War, hoping to quickly resolve the blockade within one to three months. Whether that is realistic remains to be seen, and only actual deployment will provide answers. But if even U.S. ground fo

📊 SGX Outperforms U.S. Stocks: Q1 2026 Key Themes, Events & Q2 Outlook
👋 Hi, Tigers~ Q1 2026 has officially come to an end. If you’ve been watching the Singapore market recently, you might have noticed something: 👉 It feels more active than last year 👉 But there’s still no clear bull market So the question is: What exactly happened in Q1?

SGX Outperformed U.S. Markets in Q1: Not a Bull Run, but a Recovery 🧾 Index Performance (YTD) $Straits Times Index(STI.SI)$ Q1 closing level: 4,885.45, up +5.15% Outperformed $S&P 500(.SPX)$ (+2.35%) As of April 1 close, 2026 YTD return: +7.09% vs S&P 500: -4.63% 👉 This highlights the defensive str
The war has cut off access to about 20% of the world’s crude oil and another 20% of the liquefied natural gas, or LNG, that normally traverses the Strait of Hormuz that connects the Persian Gulf with the rest of the world. Oil prices are up about 50% since the war began.The market is starting to price in oil staying higher for longer. Three-month Brent crude futures rose 2% to US$100.79 a barrel. That would be the highest close since the war began—and only the second close above US $100 during the conflict. Though the market had anticipated rates being kept steady, the major indexes fell as Fed Chair Jerome Powell discussed uncertainty surrounding the central bank’s median forecast of one interest rate cut for 2026. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell on Monday this week said the central b
