Of course i will add on dips, and i have been consistently as the pic below illustrates. I have already added at $120. I love it when the stock market overreacts. Know the company you invest in, understand the misinformation being presented and take advantage of it. 2025 will be the year of unprecedented fake stock news, so turn on your brain people please. To be fair retail investors did engage their brains with the latest $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ dip and brought up big time... Congrats everyone! Never trust comentary on stock quarterly reports, go to the source and decide for yourself. For example today $NextEra Energy Partners LP(NEP)$ reported a nasty loss, but most of that was attributable to a one time right o

DeepSeek's Disruption: A Shock to the AI Sector, Not the Broader Market
DeepSeek, two observations:The shock caused by DeepSeek has predominantly affected the sector rather than the broader market, which typically serves as a reliable indicator of the economic and stock market cycle's health. 1) The communications services sector, which has been one of the winners in this bullish market alongside the tech sector, not only avoided losses but also appreciated by 0.52% during Monday’s session, trading near historic highs. It seems well-positioned to benefit from lower prices in artificial intelligence.2) The financial sector is one of the first to feel the impact when economic issues arise. Yet, on this Monday, it marked a new historic high.Technically speaking, the $.SPX(.SPX)$ and
28 Jan Market Rebound Led By Tech Sector Big Gains
We saw the stocks closed solidly higher on 28 Jan (Tuesday), the performance was led by big gains in the technology sector. The market rebounded from the sharp selloff that kicked off the week. The tech-heavy NASDAQ rose 2%, while the S&P 500 and DJIA added 0.9% and 0.3%, respectively. On Monday, S&P 500 and Nasdaq fell sharply when tech stocks posted their worst one-day performance since 2020 as the early success of Chinese startup DeekSeek's AI models sparked concerns about U.S. leadership in AI and the amount of money large companies are spending to develop the technology. Several of the stocks that were hit hardest on Monday recovered on Tuesday. AI chipmaker Nvidia (NVDA), which shed nearly $600 billion in market value yesterday, gained 8.9%, while rival Broadcom (AVGO) rose 2

The Allure of Options: Why They're Both Irresistible and Infuriating
Let me confess something right up front: options trading is like stepping onto a financial roller coaster that you can't quite decide if you love or hate. There’s adrenaline, excitement, and the occasional stomach-lurching regret. It's easy to see why options are so addictive. But don’t worry—I’ll explain it all, and perhaps with a bit of cheeky humour to soften the blow of reality. The Seductive Power of Leverage The thrill and terror of leveraged trading Ah, leverage—the financial world's equivalent of a magic trick. With a relatively modest sum, you can control a significantly larger position. Sounds like an absolute win, doesn’t it? But here's the catch: leverage doesn’t just amplify your gains—it also magnifies your losses. It’s like riding a rocket that could either land you on the m

Based on Monday's options opening details, the estimated near-term fluctuation range is 110-130.

$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ 🚀📈🅱️ U͎ L͎ L͎ I͎ S͎ H͎ 🚀🚀 Following a nearly 17% retracement in NVIDIA’s valuation, triggered by speculative concerns surrounding DeepSeek’s AI aspirations, I’ve strategically opened further positions. This isn’t an act of blind faith, it’s a calculated response to market misjudgment. While DeepSeek may ‘seek,’ NVIDIA defines, the silicon, the architecture, and the AI ecosystem itself. Such a pullback isn’t a disruption, it’s a distortion, and for those with foresight, it represents an unparalleled opportunity to capitalise on dominance that remains unmatched in scope and scale!
