After failing to reach 22,000 today, the Hang Seng Index pulled back to 21,814, forming an ugly upper shadow line. At this critical moment, while there's consensus about the pullback in China concept stocks, is this pullback a good entry point? Should those who are already invested consider taking profits?Examining large options orders for China concept ETFs over the past two days, I conclude that the pullback trend may continue until month-end. For KWEB, the pullback will likely stay above 31.5, with a small chance of going below. FXI may see a larger pullback than KWEB.Let me briefly explain the differences between these ETFs. KWEB is a Hong Kong tech stock ETF, FXI covers various sectors with tech stocks as the main component, and YINN is a 3x leveraged ETF based on FXI. In terms of liq

On Wed, 12 Feb 2025, US stocks fell after the first inflation readout for 2025, stoking investors’ concerns about stubborn price pressures and reignited worries that interest rates might not come down as expected. Wall Street attempted to explain that: It is likely (partly) due to businesses raising prices at the start of the year. As evident in a record surge in (a) cost of prescription medication and (b) increase in motor vehicle insurance. Historically, January CPI report follows a pattern of CPI numbers overshooting expectations every January. This is because, the “seasonal adjustment” factors used in the data modelling by US’s Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) to derive inflation, failed to fully account for the one-off turn-of-year price hikes. Nonetheless, they said the so-called res

$Uber(UBER)$ Bill Ackman just announced on X that he has purchased 30.3 million shares of Uber, currently valued at over $2.3 billion. This acquisition potentially makes Uber his largest position, surpassing Brookfield and Google. Uber’s stock has been a hot topic recently. Bears argue that autonomous vehicles from companies like Waymo and Tesla could disrupt its business, while bulls believe Uber’s extensive network is a key asset that AV companies will want access to. I'll break down his investment thesis, review Uber’s latest earnings, and discuss a key recent development that strengthens the bullish case. I previously had a more cautious stance on Uber, but this shift is making me reconsider. In the second half of the article, I'll explain why

$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ Tesla shares have dropped 27% from their highs over the past three months, leaving many investors wondering why the stock is declining. Some may have believed that simply buying Tesla stock would lead to a $10 trillion company, as Elon Musk has suggested—but what's really happening? Tesla CEO Elon Musk appears to be on a financial downward spiral, driven by what some call "bottomless insecurity." Today's headlines paint a dire picture: Tesla stock plunged 6.34% today alone, at one point dropping as much as 7%. Year to date, it’s down 18.66%, and from its peak on December 17, 2024, to today (February 11, 2025), it's taken a staggering 31.54% nosedive. Put simply, Musk is in serious trouble. In fact, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman recent

I’ve watched Tesla’s stock tumble this week amid news of BYD’s aggressive push into autonomous driving—a move that’s rattled investors. But before writing off Elon Musk’s EV giant, let’s dissect why this dip might be less about Tesla’s weaknesses and more about the hypercompetitive industry. BYD’s decision to roll out its autonomous driving feature, God’s Eye, across all models—including its $10,000 Seagull hatchback—is undeniably disruptive. By bundling advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) into affordable cars, BYD is commoditizing technology that Tesla currently monetizes as a premium add-on (Full Self-Driving, or FSD, costs $12,000 upfront or $199/month). This could pressure Tesla’s pricing power in markets like China, where BYD already outsells Tesla. However, the immediate impact
