US Comps Slow: Is Costco Hitting The Stagflation?

$Costco(COST)$ performance in fiscal Q4 2025 (ended August 31) came in as neutral overall, showing resilience with positive undertones despite some pressures. The company achieved double-digit growth in both revenue and net income, with EPS beating expectations and membership fees remaining a core profit driver. However, underlying concerns include slightly underwhelming U.S. comparable sales growth, a sequential slowdown in comp sales, and emerging signs of pressure on membership renewal rates.In the short term, valuations are under strain as the market holds high growth expectations, leading to a cautious after-hours stock reaction. If Costco can deliver on membership upgrades, site expansions, and e-commerce transformations, its

CN Assets Pick|14 Risk Management Toolkit for Investing in Emerging Markets

Over the past year, Chinese assets have been gaining momentum. The Shanghai Composite Index surged past 3,800 points, while Hong Kong equities rebounded on the back of favorable policies and the return of U.S.-listed Chinese companies. But markets often rise fast and fall just as quickly. For example, in early September, sharp declines followed earlier gains, leaving investors on an emotional rollercoaster—thrilled one moment, anxious the next. Many focus only on individual stocks, only to realize that quick gains often come with equally fast losses.Investing in China and emerging markets can be both exciting and nerve-wracking. Volatility is part of the game—opportunities are plenty, but without proper risk management, it’s like sailing without a life jacket. Today, let’s walk through a s

Intel’s Revenge Comeback! Which Other Giants Could Take Stakes Next?

In the PC era, $Intel(INTC)$ was the undisputed chip king. But as the world entered the mobile internet and AI era, it kept missing key opportunities: it handed the mobile chip market to Qualcomm and ARM, and in AI chips, Nvidia left everyone far behind.To make matters worse, Intel’s foundry business turned into a “profit black hole,” with quarterly losses hitting $1.2 billion and gross margins sinking to -35%. In the eyes of capital markets, this old giant had completely fallen into the status of a “washed-up relic.”1. A Turning Point: $8.9 Billion from the US GovernmentIn August 2025, the U.S. government converted its promised CHIPS Act subsidy into an $8.9 billion equity investment in Intel, directly taking about a 10% stake, plus warrants to b
Intel’s Revenge Comeback! Which Other Giants Could Take Stakes Next?
TOPShyon: Intel’s recent government and corporate backing is striking. The $8.9B U.S. stake and Nvidia’s $5B investment show rivals becoming backers, hinting at AI and foundry collaborations, and the market has reacted strongly. The sudden surge in stock price reflects both optimism and renewed investor confidence in Intel’s potential. I remain cautious. Intel has missed key opportunities for 20 years, and turning around its loss-making foundry won’t be easy. Talks with Apple or cloud giants are promising, but execution is the real test. The company needs to prove it can deliver competitive products and regain credibility in cutting-edge markets. There’s also a political angle. Meta’s investment may signal alignment with U.S. strategy more than pure returns. Intel’s comeback depends as much on politics as technology, so I’m cautiously optimistic. If it succeeds, we could see a reshaping of the semiconductor landscape, with Intel reclaiming a central role. @Tiger_comments @TigerStars

$Costco(COST)$ COST: take loss on this trade. Small loss after keeping the shorts for a very long time.  Always had thought that COST valuation is premium to market performance but then it never really go down the my intended price.  In alignment to my recent change of strategy to cut off unprofitable trades and stay long bias, this trade is among the final few older unprofitable trades.  Price had dropped in recent weeks and its close enough for me to be able to take a loss without feeling too much pain.  Today is as good as any day in doing so and so I did it.

Took the opportunity to sell these covered calls to capture some premium on the way down to offset the paper loss holding the long positions.  Strike selected at $60 which is the holding cost, so will be happy to nett off the pair trades should price reverse back above $60.  Else will just trade and collect premium to offset the holding cost.
