How true it is about the fickleness or over-expectations from retail traders. Palantir reported exactly, or higher, than professional analyst's projections, but the retailers were hoping for the moon. So how do we then reconcile this with Tesla where they are continuing to report dismay sales and falling margins, but yet retailers are believeing Elon Musk and hoping for, not just the moon, but the stars even. I think Palantie will recover, but Tesla is up for a big reckoning pretty soon.

Tesla demand is priority

$TSLA investors need to remember that EV fundamentals still drive TSLA’s stock price (-2.4% today vs NDX -0.7%). April Europe sales have so far been terrible and the Model Y changeover can no longer be used as an excuse. With nearly all European countries now reporting April sales, @troyteslike is predicting that April 2025 Europe sales will be -47% YoY vs April 2024. We predict that FY’25 TSLA delivs will be -6% YoY vs FY’24, vs FY’25 WS est decline of -3% YoY. The clear message is that FY’25-FY’26 consensus non-GAAP EPS ests are likely to come down further (FY’25 $2.09 today, -21% vs pre-1Q earnings release; FY’26 $3.03 today, -17% vs pre-1Q earnings release), which could further pressure TSLA’s stock. Two consecutive years of declining deliveries aren’t consistent with a stock trading a

Quality is a very high cost expense. Firefly sales target number is very low for such high quality. Just afraid the profit margins might be low and cannot sustain production cost. Delaying sales numbers is considered as a loss of income. Management must really sell more cars if they really want to stay above water. Stay safe. Stay focus and don't buy without your eyes open. 🍉 🍉 🍉

MicroStrategy’s strategy of increasing its Bitcoin holdings, now at 553,555 BTC as of April 28, 2025, valued at approximately $33.14 billion, has been both polarizing and transformative. Under Michael Saylor’s leadership, the company has pivoted from a traditional business intelligence firm to a Bitcoin-centric treasury operation, leveraging debt and equity to amass over 2.5% of Bitcoin’s total supply. This move has propelled its stock price, with a 500% surge in 2024 and a 92% increase over the past year, outperforming even Bitcoin itself. But is this strategy a masterstroke or a high-stakes gamble? And should MicroStrategy diversify into other cryptocurrencies like Ether? Let’s break it down.

Warren Buffett explains why Berkshire Hathaway price can go up if he passes away

Berkshire Hathaway(BRK.B) Berkshire Hathaway(BRK.A) I expect the succession question to be asked again in the Berkshire Hathaway 2025 annual meeting. Buffett himself already explained (see the video below) why BRK stocks price can go up tomorrow if he passes away today. https://youtu.be/YP8VyvLfwYg Some of my additional thoughts are below: Removal of "Key Person Risk" Discount: Currently, a portion of BRK's stock valuation might be discounted due to the "key person risk" associated with Warren Buffett. His exceptional track record and influence are undeniable. Upon his passing, this specific risk factor would be removed. Some investors who were hesitant due to this concentration of influence might then

Apple’s $900 Million Tariff Hit Could Be Just the Start

$Apple(AAPL)$   Dow Jones 08:30 Apple stock dropped on Friday after the company put a number on its financial hit from President Donald Trump’s tariffs. While a plan to build more iPhones in India should help it escape the worst of the levies, Wall Street is still nervous about what comes next.  CEO Tim Cook told analysts that shipping devices sold in the U.S. from India and Vietnam, rather than China, would add about $900 million to the company’s costs for the June quarter in the company’s earnings call on Thursday.  Apple shares closed lower 3.7% at $205.35. That might seem like something of an overreaction for the added costs. But there is no guarantee yet that India and Vietnam won’t also face tari

Warren Buffett's announcement to step down as CEO of Berkshire Hathaway by the end of 2025 indeed signifies the conclusion of a remarkable era in global finance. Having led the conglomerate since 1970, Buffett transformed it from a struggling textile company into a diversified powerhouse with significant holdings across various industries, including insurance, energy, transportation, and technology . Confidence in Greg Abel's Leadership Greg Abel, currently Vice Chairman overseeing non-insurance operations, has been designated as Buffett's successor. Abel has managed key Berkshire businesses such as BNSF Railway, See’s Candies, and Dairy Queen over the past seven years, demonstrating strategic acumen and a commitment to Berkshire's decentralized management philosophy .

The earnings reports for Singapore’s three major banks—DBS, OCBC, and UOB—are set to reveal the impact of moderating net interest margins (NIMs) and other macroeconomic factors. Based on analysts' expectations: 1. Projected Earnings Trends DBS: Anticipated 4.4% y-o-y decline in net income to $2.95 billion for 1QFY2025. This reflects challenges in maintaining NIMs amidst rate cuts and a potential slowdown in loan growth. OCBC: Expected to post a 5.7% y-o-y decrease in net income to $1.98 billion. A similar narrative of narrowing NIMs and weaker growth drivers applies here. UOB: Forecast to achieve a 1.1% y-o-y growth in net income, marking the slowest pace since 2QFY2024. This modest growth suggests some resilience but highlights the industry-wide pressure on profitability. 2. Impact of Dec

What They Won't Tell You About This Rally

The S&P 500 and Nasdaq continue their impressive climb, with SPX eyeing the psychologically important 5,740 level. But here’s what you need to know: this rally is getting tired. Key Market Observations 1. The Exhaustion Signals Are Flashing - SPY and QQQ are showing their first meaningful upside exhaustion signals since this rally began - The VIX, which we correctly shared on our updates, had another 7-10% downside, has now reached our target in the low 20s and looks to consolidate and bounce - These converging signals suggest we’re due for at least a short-term consolidation 2. Why This Isn’t Bearish – Just Normal - After such a powerful rally, markets rarely collapse – they typically digest gains through time - The overall trend remains positive, but the easy money has been made for

5th May- Earnings Fuel Rally? Read Now.

This week, the S&P 500 surged 2.92% to 5,686, completely erasing its post-"Liberation Day" slump, while the Nasdaq jumped 3.42% to 17,977– another decisive move higher. What’s Driving the Rally? 1. Earnings Are Beating – By a Lot - 77% of S&P 500 companies have topped estimates so far, with an average beat of 9%– better than the 5-year (8.8%) and 10-year (7%) averages which means corporate America is delivering, justifying the market’s run-up. 2. Small Caps Are Waking Up - After lagging for months, small-caps have broken out vs. the Equal-Weighted S&P 500 to their highest levels since March. - This suggests broader market participation, not just mega-cap tech carrying the load. The Big Question: How Much Higher? The S&P 500 is now eyeing 5,740– a key psychological level. Bu
