To The Moon

Remember at the beginning of the year, numerous reports projected that the Federal Reserve would cut interest rates four times. However, following the surge in oil prices, the market has swung from one extreme to another. Today, hardly anyone dares to anticipate any rate cuts this year. In fact, working backward from the latest U.S. Treasury yield data, the market has even begun to price in potential rate hikes starting in October. This dramatic shift—going from extreme euphoria to sheer panic in just two to three weeks—clearly demonstrates that market trends are currently driven by future sentiment and expectations rather than genuine, medium-to-long-term fundamental changes. Investors must deeply understand this reality. Predictably, if the strait blockade eventually concludes and rate c

Gold fell more than 8% intraday, breaking below $4,200 and reaching the $4,100 level. It has now declined for multiple consecutive days, wiping out all of this year’s gains. On March 22, US President Donald Trump issued an ultimatum to Iran in the evening New York time, demanding that it reopen the Strait of Hormuz within two days or face attacks on its power facilities. Iran responded that if attacked, it would “completely close” the strait and target energy and infrastructure. This escalation directly pushed oil prices higher. Rising oil prices have changed the market’s view on inflation. As energy costs increase, investors are reassessing the US inflation path, believing that the previous disinflation trend may be interrupted. In this context, expectations for Federal Reserve rate cuts

World leaders! Please unite and stop Trump! This atrocious being as if has not done enough to divide America.  It's is also dividing the world. If world leaders do not take courage to unite, the world is gonna run in to the ground by 1 mad idiot. 

Asia markets opened sharply lower on Monday (23 March) as geopolitical tensions escalated after the US issued Iran a 48-hour ultimatum to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, with Tehran threatening to shut the waterway indefinitely and target regional energy infrastructure in response. Hong Kong stocks mostly sank in morning trading, with the $HSI(HSI)$ down 3.46% during the session. Amplifying the move, the HSI 7x Short DLC rose about 24%, while the HSI 7x Long DLC fell by a similar magnitude. The $HSTECH(HSTECH)$ Index, meanwhile, was down about 3.1%, translating into a close to 22% rise for the HSTECH 7x Short DLC, while the HSTECH 7x Long DLC fell by a similar magnitude. Singapore markets also opened on the

American AI giant Anthropic has "war" with the US President Trump administration, accusing the Department of Defense of listing the company as the only domestic American enterprise in the United States that "national security supply chain risks."

BREAKING: Iran responds to President Trump's threat to "obliterate" Iranian power plants if the Strait of Hormuz is not opened "within 48 hours." Iran's response: 1. Iran will "completely close" the Strait of Hormuz 2. Iran will hit “vital” infrastructure in the Middle East 3. This includes energy, IT, and water desalination facilities 4. Iran’s senior military commander says the country’s military strategy has shifted from defensive to offensive 5. Iranian officials say the country has enough reserves of essential goods to last for up to one year Trump's deadline has 33 hours remaining.

Trump says Iran’s military ‘decimated’. And yet, we still see Iran launching missiles and drones hitting the region. It clearly still has the ability to shut the Strait of Hormuz effectively. The US doesn’t want to strike Iran’s oil facilities due to fears of escalating oil prices further — but Israel went ahead and struck Iran’s South Pars gas field. Iran retaliated by firing at Qatar’s Ras Laffan LNG facility, causing some damage. That sent oil prices above $100 and share prices down again. Then the latest development: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel acted alone on the bombing, and Trump has asked Israel not to carry out further attacks on oil facilities. This moderated oil prices — for now. The last time the S&P 500 broke below the 200DMA was during Trump’s uni

Trump now gives Ultimatum on Strait of Hormuz

​WASHINGTON (March 21, 2026) — Global financial markets are bracing for a high-stakes Monday opening following a series of late-week pronouncements from President Donald J. Trump suggesting that major U.S. military objectives in the three-week-old conflict with Iran are nearly complete.   What just happened? At 2:30 PM ET today, CBS News reported that President Trump was considering "boots on the ground" in Iran. Then, at 3:43 PM ET, President Trump said "I don't want to do a ceasefire with Iran," with the S&P 500 hitting a new 2026 low. Exactly 90 minutes later, at 5:13 PM ET, President Trump said the US is "considering winding down" the war with Iran. Between the 3:43 PM ET and 5:13 PM ET comments, the S&P 500 had already risen nearly +1% on NO news. By 6:15 PM ET, the

Geopolitical tensions are back with a vengeance. Just as the market was pricing in a "US-Iran rapprochement," the script flipped. Reports of assassination threats against leadership have shattered the fragile trust, and the Habshan gas facility strike in Abu Dhabi has set the energy complex on edge.

$Occidental(OXY)$ I sold all my OXY shares today because I feel that oil prices are highly sensitive to rapidly changing global conditions. They can rise sharply, but they can also fall just as quickly, making them difficult to predict. Given the uncertainty surrounding the ongoing US-Iran tensions, it's hard to know how things will unfold. At the same time, I genuinely hope for peace. Beyond the markets, what matters most is that the situation stabilises and the world becomes a more peaceful place.

Recently, the Hang Seng Index has surged for three consecutive days, capturing the attention of many traders. Analysts attribute this rally to better-than-expected macroeconomic data from mainland China, an earnings recovery in tech stocks driven by the AI boom, and a short-term easing of geopolitical risks in the Middle East. However, against the backdrop of this continuous surge, authoritative institutions warn that the Hong Kong stock market still faces deep-seated tail risks from resurging inflation and foreign capital flight beneath the surface of this rebound. We will now discuss whether it is advisable to chase the current rally in the Hang Seng market.​$A50指数主连 2603(CNmain)$ $恒生指数主连 2603(HSIm
