Dead Cat Bounce Or True Bottom?
🌟🌟🌟Is the US market experiencing a Dead Cat Bounce or has it hit a true bottom? For new investors, a dead cat bounce refers to a short lived recovery in a declining market. It is a temporary spike before further declines resume. In contrast, a true bottom represents the point at which a market has found sufficient support to begin a sustained recovery. In the current environment, distinguishing between these 2 scenarios is rather challenging given mixed market signals and the Trump factor. Dead Cat Bounce: Technical indicators suggest that the recent rally in the US markets could be a Dead Cat Bounce. While the markets have rebounded from recent lows, uncertainties which include geopolitical tensions, tariff related disruptions, continue to weigh on the

Is the Market Rebound a Trap? Decoding the Dead Cat Bounce Debate
The financial markets in 2025 are grappling with a critical question: is the recent rebound a fleeting dead cat bounce or a true bottom signalling a sustainable recovery?

With the US-China trade war escalating, economic indicators pointing to a slowdown, and investor sentiment divided, this analysis explores the current market cycle and proposes three high-probability options trading strategies to navigate the volatility. Market Context and Economic Indicators The US-China trade war, ongoing since 2018, has intensified in 2025, with the US imposing a 145% tariff on Chinese goo

As of now, total investment is still small since only started few months. Will take time to accumulate over a long term then the investment will be substantial. As it stands, VOO holdings are about 8% under water, which reflects the market down from its peak. Happy to continue accumulation as each unit is being bought at lower price now than before so it's averaging down when market is weaker.

$PLTR 20250502 80.0 PUT$ Generating Income Through Cash-Secured Puts: My PLTR Trade On April 23, 2025, I sold one cash-secured put option for Palantir Technologies Inc. (PLTR) with a strike price of $80, expiring on May 2, 2025. The premium I collected was $0.30 per share, totaling $30 for the contract. This trade represents a common options strategy known as the cash-secured put, where I commit to potentially buying 100 shares of PLTR at $80 per share if the stock price falls below that level by the expiration date. In return for taking on this obligation, I receive an upfront premium. The key benefit of selling a cash-secured put is the ability to generate income on stocks I want to own at a discount.
