As an investor, Iโm watching Trumpโs inauguration and his policy commitments closely, noting that the stock market tends to show mixed reactions after Republican inaugurations. During his first term, the market performed well, particularly in financial, industrial, and technology sectors, supported by tax cuts and deregulation. His policies on energy could benefit companies like Exxon Mobil and Chevron, but electric vehicle manufacturers may face challenges. Traditional automakers could gain, while tech and semiconductor companies might experience uncertainty due to trade policies. Trump's trade tariffs could increase costs for U.S. companies reliant on international supply chains. Overall, I plan to focus on sectors like energy and infrastructure, while staying diversified to manage poten

As an investor following Trump's inauguration and the policy commitments he outlined, I have some insights on how this might affect my investment decisions. Stock Market Trends After Republican Inaugurations: From the historical data, the stock market tends to show mixed reactions on the first trading day after a Republican president's inauguration. The average decline of 0.27% since World War II suggests that the market can go either way, though it may be influenced by other factors in the broader economic landscape. Stock Market Performance During Trump's First Term (2017-2021): During Trump's first term, the U.S. stock market had strong growth, with the S&P 500 rising by about 70%. This was supported by tax cuts, deregulation, and policies favoring traditional energy sec

I think $TRUMP coin is an interesting phenomenon, but it's more about hype and speculation than real long-term value. While it saw impressive short-term gains, itโs highly risky and driven by FOMO. Meme coins can be fun, but they often drop sharply, so Iโd advise caution and not get caught up in the excitement. Regarding the potential acquisition of TikTok, itโs possible, given Trumpโs business mindset, but the timeline and real impact are uncertain. If he makes such a move, it could grab headlines, but weโll need to see how it plays out. As for Coinbase, the meme coin trend might bring short-term interest and benefit their business, but I wouldnโt expect it to last without more stable projects. Overall, while $TRUMP could rise in the short term, itโs a speculative market. I wouldnโt bet o

I don't think Musk will actually acquire TikTok. He already owns so many companies and is incredibly busy with ventures like $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ , SpaceX, X, etc... While it would be surprising if he found a way to merge X with TikTok, the scale of TikTok is much larger than X, making the acquisition a complex move. However, Musk is known for pulling off the unexpected, so who knows what could happen. But I prefer him to focus on Tesla now ๐.

Iโm cautious about the January Effect continuing, as market breadth is narrowing and momentum is weakening. Despite strong bank earnings, investor sentiment is low, and concerns about overvaluation suggest the rally may lack sustainability. A correction could be imminent, and Iโm wary of significant market volatility ahead. For 2025, Iโm more pessimistic, as narrowing market participation and policy uncertainties create risks. Although earnings growth looks strong, it might not offset these factors. The marketโs late-stage bull run could lead to a sharp reversion to long-term averages. Iโve increased cash holdings in my portfolio to hedge against potential corrections and am looking at US Treasuries if yields hit 5%. This provides a more conservative approach while still allowing for growt
Iโm getting into the Spring Festival spirit by indulging in some premium Mandarin oranges, which are my all-time favorite! These juicy, sweet oranges are a special treat that I look forward to every year, as theyโre usually only available during this festive period. The vibrant color of the fruit always reminds me of good luck and prosperity, making them the perfect snack to enjoy while preparing for the new year. I also love how the scent of fresh oranges fills the air, adding to the festive atmosphere. It's a tradition in my family to stock up on them, and I even share them with friends and family as a symbol of good fortune. Along with the oranges, Iโve started decorating my home with lucky symbols and red accents to invite positive energy into the new year. This season is all about new
As President-elect Donald Trump prepares to take the oath of office for his second term, I'm focusing on how this transition could impact my investment strategy. With the inauguration drawing significant financial backing from major corporations, including crypto giants like Coinbase, Kraken, and Ripple, it signals that the business world is aligning with the new administration. This could lead to favorable policies for certain sectors, particularly technology, healthcare, and defense. I'm keeping an eye on stocks from companies like Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, and Microsoft, as well as industries like defense (Boeing, Lockheed Martin) and vehicles (Ford, General Motors). The crypto market also looks promising, with ongoing involvement from key players like Coinbase, Robinhood, and Ripple. Gi

The recent surge in quantum computing stocks seems a bit overextended to me. While the excitement around quantum computing is certainly growing, I believe the market has become overly optimistic. A lot of this rally is driven by speculative enthusiasm, and any shift in sentiment or negative news could quickly send the stocks tumbling. That said, I'm not entirely dismissing the potential of quantum computing. The technology is undeniably promising, and some companies are making real strides. However, given the volatility, I think it's crucial to be cautious and not get swept up in the hype. For me, trading based on the trend makes the most sense. The recent pullback in quantum stocks presents an entry opportunity, especially if the prices are more aligned with the underlying risk and reward

I am certainly keeping an eye on Trump's inauguration & the potential impact it could have on the markets. While I'm not enthusiastic about the event itself, I am interested in the financial and economic implications that could follow. In terms of the "Trump trade," I find the performance of stocks like DJT & the potential for Bitcoin to be particularly intriguing. The connection between politics and the stock market is undeniable, and Trump's second term could lead to some interesting shifts in the market, especially with his influence on technology stocks and cryptocurrency. As for Bitcoin, I think it's possible that it could hit a new all-time high, especially given the recent price surge to $100,000. However, the likelihood of Bitcoin reaching $130,000 or facing a downturn to $

As a Malaysian living in Singapore, I usually visit Johor Bahru every few months. With the favorable currency exchange, expenses in Johor are much cheaper for someone working in Singapore. For instance, clothes, shoes, and supplements are significantly more affordable there compared to Singapore, making the trip worthwhile. A good pair of shoes or clothing costs much less in Johor, and health supplements are also cheaper. While prices in Johor have increased in recent years, the cost difference is still noticeable for someone living and working in Singapore. However, for local residents, the price in Johor is definitely considered quite expensive and burdening, especially when you earn MYR there. The trip also allows me to enjoy local food at a lower cost, which adds to the overall savings
I believe Bitcoin could surge back to $100,000 before Trumpโs inauguration on January 20th, given its strong rebound from recent dips and ongoing institutional demand.

BTC-related stocks like $MicroStrategy(MSTR)$ $Marathon Digital Holdings Inc(MARA)$ $CleanSpark, Inc.(CLSK)$ $Coinbase Global, Inc.(COIN)$ appear to be attractive buying opportunities, particularly as Bitcoin's value rises. Companies like CLSK are well-positioned to benefit from the cryptocurrency's growth, making them promising investments. Overall, I remain optimistic a
