Not sure. So I googled for the following: ❤️Popmart (9992.HK)❤️ Popmart is set to release its first-half financial report on August 19, 2025. The company has already provided a positive profit warning, and analysts are highly optimistic about the results. The key theme is the company's successful globalization strategy. Revenue Analysts expect significant year-over-year revenue growth. Bloomberg forecasts revenue of 13.76 billion yuan for the first half of 2025, which would represent a 201.9% year-on-year increase. Profit The company has already stated that it expects profit to grow by no less than 350% year-on-year. Adjusted net profit is anticipated to exceed 4.6 billion yuan, which would be more than the company's full-year profit for 2024. Key Growth Drivers 1. Overseas Expansion
🚨 Citron Shorts Palantir: Retail Darling or Overpriced Trap? Palantir is back in the spotlight — this time not for an AI contract win, but because Citron Research has just declared it “far beyond overvalued.” Andrew Left, the man who went toe-to-toe with retail traders during the GameStop short squeeze, is shorting $PLTR and says the stock would need to fall into the $40–$50 range to be “truly cheap.” That’s a call for a 70%+ drop from current levels. Bold? Definitely. Convincing? That’s up for debate. --- The Citron Argument 📉 Citron’s thesis is straightforward: Valuation: Palantir $Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$ is priced like a high-growth software star but delivers margins and growth closer to a mature tech firm.

$SMCI 20250912 50.0 CALL$ SMCI: collect $357 (2.35%) premium from these covered call with strike at $50. Contract expires in 4 weeks on 12th Sept. Stock closed at $45.73, up 1.73% for the week after falling 21.26% the week before. Price action is still weak, but still trade above its 100 and 200 days MA. Consolidating the past week without a clear direction. Will likely sell similar covered call trades at lower strike to maintain premium collection while awaiting which way SMCI will break out of. Had held SMCI all the way from its $17.25 low last Nov so think still can stomach the most recent drop for now. Will still look to reduce position at better price simple for portfolio rebalancing purpose.

Is SBET’s $3.3B ETH Stash a Steal or a Trap? Uncover the Truth Now!
I’m gonna talk about $SharpLink Gaming(SBET)$ , the second biggest Ethereum Treasury company out there. Check this out – on Friday, 15 Aug, their stock closed at $19.85, down 15.5% after their Q2 earnings call. Ouch sia, what happened?! Let’s dive into the numbers and find out lah. Started the day at $22.53, but by the end, it tanked to $19.00, below $20 sia. Five days ago, it was hovering near $20, and just one month back, it was close to $40! That’s almost a 50% drop if you invested a month ago. Rewind six months, they pivoted from an online sports betting company to an Ethereum Treasury one, and the stock shot up to $120, like BMNR. But then, some announcements about PIPE investors and offeri
Investing Requires Pro? Which Cross-Industry Investment Masters Do You Know?
There’s a common image of the investor: suited, serious, armed with spreadsheets, charts, and a fancy finance degree. But scratch the surface, and we’ll find that some of the most fascinating investment stories come from people who didn’t follow that path at all. For stock investing, the basics are almost simple: open a trading app, click “buy” or “sell,” and watch the market move. Charts? Sure, they help but some of the sharpest market moves have been made by instinct, curiosity, or a hunch that defied logic. Luck sneaks in too, often wearing a tuxedo and calling itself “timing.” What’s intriguing is how people from completely unrelated industries can rise to investment mastery. Engineers, artists, and entrepreneurs may spot patterns or opportunities others overlook, not by memorizing for
S&P Target Raised to 6600: When Will Bull Run End?
The stock market is rarely quiet for long. History shows us a series of rising waves and sudden dips—bulls charging forward, bears quietly waiting in the shadows. Understanding these cycles can give a surprising sense of perspective, even if predicting the future remains impossible. Consider the S&P 500 over the past few decades. The late 1990s tech boom created one of the most celebrated bull markets in modern history, only to end abruptly in the dot-com crash of 2000. Investors who assumed the upward trend would last forever were caught off guard, reminding everyone that even the most exuberant rallies can pause or reverse without warning. Fast forward to 2009, after the global financial crisis. The market had cratered, yet what followed was an extraordinary bull run lasting more tha

The core principle of trading after an earnings report is to react to new information, not to speculate on it beforehand. The market's reaction is driven by several factors beyond just beating or missing an EPS (Earnings Per Share) estimate. These include: Guidance: The company's future outlook is often more important than past performance. If a company beats on current earnings but provides weak guidance for the next quarter or year, the stock can sell off. This is a common reason for a "beat and crash" scenario. Revenue vs. Profit: How the company makes its money matters. A company could beat on EPS by cutting costs, but if revenue growth is stagnant or declining, it may be a bad sign for the long term. Analyst Estimates and Whisper Numbers: The market reacts to surprises. If a com
🌟🌟🌟All eyes will be on Xiaomi's CEO Leijun as he will reveal $XIAOMI-W(01810)$ $Xiaomi Corp.(XIACY)$ latest earnings on August 19. Investors will be keen to know especially how Xiaomi's EV segment is tracking and when this fast rising segment will hit profitability. If you already own Xiaomi's shares, a good Options strategy is to Sell a Put Option. You are not chasing upside, you are reinforcing your belief with income and a lower entry point. This is a strategy of an investor who sees Xiaomi not just as a stock but as a company worth accumulating long term. @Tiger_SG
