$Micron Technology(MU)$ Micron’s earnings may indeed beat consensus, but whether the stock makes new highs is a separate question. Post-earnings reaction With the stock up more than 190% year to date, expectations are already elevated. A beat on revenue and EPS alone may not be sufficient. The market will focus on forward guidance, particularly HBM pricing, customer concentration, and capacity discipline. Any hint of margin peaking or aggressive capex could trigger a “sell-the-news” response, even on strong results. Near-term setup To push decisively higher, Micron likely needs upside guidance for FY2026 or clear evidence that HBM demand from AI accelerators remains structurally undersupplied. Without that, upside may be more gradual rather th
So, I have plenty of "tricks" some orthodox, some that seriously go against conventional wisdom. Today I'll go thru a very unorthodox one. So two years ago, I was 53 with retirement savings of only $30k. Conventional wisdom was very clear for me. I'm told to play it safe, bank deposits, some bonds, a conservative retirement fund. Best case scenario, if I kept putting money into conservative retirement funds, well at best at retirement age I mite have $100k. But I'd need at least $1 million. So I needed to be unconventional. I'm now 55, and unconventional is paying off significantly. So let me share my journey so far. So my grown up children love to tell me I'm hopeless with technology, because I'm not on twitter or X or whatever. And I go out without taking my cell phone with me, to be fai
Why I Avoid ESR (Despite Cash): SGX Daily Stock Update 15 Dec 🦖 EP1317
🟩 You wake up, check your phone, and the screen is red. The STI cools off after Friday’s big rally, and suddenly the questions hit: is this just profit-taking, or the start of something uglier for dividend investors who rely on CPF, SRS, and SGX income stocks? In this episode, Iggy breaks down what really matters behind the headlines: ESR-REIT’s asset sales (and what “capital recycling” signals for future DPU), ST Engineering’s US lawsuit risk (and why legal headlines can trigger overreactions), and OUE REIT’s new unsecured loan (and what higher funding costs can do to distributions). The goal is simple: separate fear from fundamentals, and spot where risk is rising before it shows up in the dividend. Watch the full analysis to get the exact Buy/Sell verdict for each name, plus what to wat
🚨🚨🚨📝 Market Analysis Summary (Rephrased) Here is a concise overview of the current financial markets, focusing on key drivers and the cryptocurrency sector: Global Markets: * Risk Aversion: Equity markets closed out last week on a cautious note, notably in the US, where major indices like the S&P 500 and Nasdaq experienced selling pressure, largely driven by investors rotating out of major tech stocks following underwhelming earnings results. * Focus on Data and Central Banks: This week is critical, as markets are eagerly awaiting key delayed US economic reports (including the November jobs report and CPI). Simultaneously, central bank decisions are paramount, with the Bank of Japan (BoJ) expected to hike rates and the European Central Bank (ECB) set to issue updated policy
🚀 Is SpaceX the Next Tesla? Space Stocks, Speculation, and What the Rally Is Really Pricing In 🧠📈 Reports that SpaceX is accelerating plans for a 2026 IPO, potentially targeting a valuation north of $1.5 trillion, reignited one of the most powerful narratives of 2025: space as the next frontier trade. The market reaction was immediate: • DXYZ +10% • EchoStar +6% • Listed space names up 100%+ YTD But before calling SpaceX the “next Tesla of 2019,” it’s worth separating technological dominance, capital intensity, and public-market reality. ⸻ 🔍 Why SpaceX Is Fundamentally Different SpaceX isn’t just another aerospace company — it’s a vertical monopoly in the making. What makes SpaceX unique • 🚀 Launch dominance: Reusable rockets with unmatched cadence • 🛰️ Starlink: Recurring revenue + global
$POP MART(09992)$ For: Pop Mart Flash Crash: Shorts Go Crazy! See HK$180? Title: Pop Mart: When the "Collectible" Narrative Loses Its Magic Pop Mart's ~40% crash from August highs is more than a Morgan Stanley downgrade—it's a fundamental challenge to its growth story. The core issue is whether IP-driven collectibles have a durable, expanding addressable market, or if it's a saturated fashion trend. Morgan Stanley's Downgrade (30% → 18% growth) is significant because it questions: · Repeat Purchase Rate: Can adult collectors maintain spending through economic cycles? · IP Longevity: Are characters like Molly having lasting power, or are they fading? · International Expansion: Can it truly replicate its China success abroad against dif

$ASML 20260320 1020.0 CALL$ ASML seems to have hit a temporary plateau, settling back slightly after briefly touching a new all-time high of $1411 just days ago. The stock now appears to be drifting somewhat with the general market momentum, suggesting that a new, distinct catalyst will be needed to push it to the next major move higher. I hold a call option that extends until March next year before expiration, giving me ample time to ride out this current consolidation phase. I am banking on the potential Santa Rally to provide the necessary boost, and I'll be looking to actively close the position sometime in January, or potentially hold it until we get closer to the next earnings reports for a larger movement.
