$Luckin Coffee Inc.(LKNCY)$ I don't think the U.S. will put tariffs on Chinese coffee, or it would maybe but unlikely unless Americans don't drink coffee! LoL They can put tariff on chinese EV but not coffee bean LOL! So this will continue its uptrend in 2025!
I disagree with the author. Hope is not a strategy but buying a competitive business at a lower price is. Despite all the hoohah and the pullback, nothing has fundamentally change looking at PLTR business. The moat is there and if you notice there is not a competitor operating in the same sphere to be able to compete with them. Yes, sentiment is driving the stock market and the stock prices may not justified in any way from a fundamental point of view at times - this is how money is made in Wall Street. People start to fear if they do not understand PLTR business. For those who understand and continue to have conviction to DCA will eventually make a lot of money. We have seen this in TSLA and now PLTR. If DoD is to cut defense budget, the only logical way of d

$Vici Properties(VICI)$ Earnings Breakdown: More Than Meets the Eye Vici Properties, a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT), has just released its latest quarterly earnings. However, if you only focus on the key highlights, you may overlook some critical details—there’s more to the story than meets the eye. For Q4, Funds from Operations (FFO) came in at $0.58 per share, missing expectations by about $0.09—a fairly significant shortfall. On the other hand, revenue was reported at approximately $976 million, marking a 4.7% year-over-year increase and exceeding estimates by $6.76 million. This resulted in mixed performance on both the top and bottom lines. Despite this, the stock is currently up 1.33%, and over the past month, it has gained about 4.64

Option Witch | Will Tesla Stock Dip Below $300 or Just Signal a Prime Buying Opportunity?
Tesla stock has fallen 18.3% this month, with its stock price closing at $330.53 as of Feb 24. On the one hand, investors may worry that the selling pressure would accelerate. On the other hand, they don’t want to miss the opportunity to buy the dip. Let’s dive into the potential sscenarios and related options strategies with Tesla stock.1. Moderately BearishWhile Tesla’s technicals and sentiment skew bearish on weak sales, a sharp drop below $300 within a month (requiring 9% decline) would need a catalyst. The options market just assigns a 21% probability to this scenario. A bear put spread strategy may be less risky if you are not optimistic about Tesla’s future performance.Tesla Sales Fall 45% in Europe as Rivals’ EV Registrations SoarTesla Inc.’s sales plunged 45% last month across Eur
$BigBear.ai Holdings(BBAI)$ Bullish fake news everywhere lol. It has some potential, yes, but to return to 10, it's going to need more promising news or strong or at least good earnings like PLTR (not to mention that the DOD has decided to cut defense budget). Right now, it's only speculation driving the stock up.

Part 1 My view on this report - It can be misleading with certain important points omitted. Further more the report is quite pessimistic. The reports from bloombergs previously stated that the White House will not support a foreign entity controlling Intel factories , however it also did mention that a Joint Venture between a foreign entity and local US semiconductor entities can be possible. With the 2 companies TSMC and Broadcom in the picture, it fits the above stated which makes the deal possible. There are many variables on how the structure will be like, but I am certain that it will be positive to the value of the shareholders.

Part 2 Yes, this deal is at its early stage, but it is a very real deal and both TSMC and Broadcom have trusted sources acknowledged that they both separately are exploring into the possibilities of a M&A with Intel although it is in the initial stages. This shows that it is not rumours and the deal is in its making. Furthermore the United States Vice President did stated on the need for US based chip foundries. It does make logical sense that Intel a homegrown US company with US foundries will be positively targeted and protected. In addition reports from Singapore Business Times cited that the Executive Chairman of Intel is heading discussions on M&A for the boosting of shareholder’s value.

Part 3 With regard to the Anti Trust laws, if TSMC invest under 20% into Intel, it can circumvent such a law. My point is there are many variable on the M&A structure, but more importantly, it is the Direction of the USA to save Intel and when the nation is behind the company, there is alot of hope. Lastly I would also like to point out that if the direction is for Intel to go through a M&A procedure, it will not make a lot of sense for any good CEO to join the company. It is like joining a company and preparing to be on the chopping board. The current interim CEO whom is also the CFO for Intel can do the job very well as that is more of the CFO’s job to oversee M&As. After the M&A is completed or finalised, the newly formed entity can hire a good CEO.

$PC PARTNER(01263)$ I've closed my long position in PC Partner (01263). While I understand the market's focus on potential AI inference growth in 2025, driven by home PCs utilizing GPUs for personal AI like Deepseek, I'm concerned about their 2024 profit guidance. My initial bullish thesis was based on the expectation that 1263 would significantly outperform previous cycles, particularly with the Nvidia RTX 40 series. I anticipated a strong GPU upgrade trend. However, I suspect they have substantial, undisclosed non-profit operations, which introduces unacceptable risk. Although the stock could potentially double or triple, I'm uncomfortable with the uncertainty. Furthermore, I view gaming GPUs as a commodity, making me hesitant to hold the stoc

I have been investing in VT for my children education fund and my time horizons is 20 years from now. Here's a short analysis of VT First off, VT’s biggest draw is its diversification. With one investment, you’re getting a slice of nearly every investable stock market worldwide—large caps, mid-caps, and small caps included. For a Singaporean investor, this means exposure beyond the local Straits Times Index (STI), which is relatively narrow and heavy on financials and real estate. VT gives you U.S. tech giants, European industrials, and emerging market growth stories, all in one go. If your goal is long-term growth and you want to spread your risk across the globe, this is a compelling feature. Plus, its expense ratio is a razor-thin 0.07%, which is hard to beat for such broad coverage. Ov
