Finally a red week for QQQ

Stoks

• Haven't seen a red candle on the weekly since 5 weeks ago and finally one appeared this week.
• Week started strong to ath and then suddenly got dumped on Tues morning but somehow the dip got bought up fast in a strong V recovery.
• Wed and Thur continued to get pumped from BB via NVDA only to get dumped on Fri.
• Consolidated semis into SMH and bought more on Thurs due to FOMO at 575 and the rest is history.
• Holding around 700 shares of SMH as of closing, will slow down on dip buying since strike is getting closer.
• Left with TSLA and GOOG for my main holdings, PLTR CSPs as usual.
• NVDA earnings next week, will see whether it make or break the market.
• If it falls then everyone die together but no sell no lose.
• Still have around 100K USD for dip buying after CSP fund allocation.
• Meanwhile DBS managed to close above ath of 60, 52week high made at 60.28.
• Would have done better just leaving it and dripping back div since SOY, oh well.
• Can't time it well for the third time so no sympathy for that.
• News of SpaceX IPO next month will happen.

Consolidated semis into SMH

Life

• Went back to Bedok FCC for my 26' ICT, no problem getting a Silver for incentive.
• Have to continue with daily training as usual.
• Will go back during Aug to clear my 27' ICT and 3 more to go after that.
• SPL tomorrow with friends at 10KKJ stadium.
• Weekly dinner at Sista house later...pkl

High can go higher

Stoks

• Power candle of 5.5% for QQQ, performance is getting further and further every week.
• QQQ is almost 16% YTD vs my total of <3% YTD, what a big joke.
• Only consolation I can tell myself is I need cashflow so I gotta sacrifice some painful gains.
• Memory stocks continue to lead the way, followed by semis.
• Bought 15 more MU this week due to FOMO but they say forward PE still cheap so...
• Scary to see market going higher and higher despite the massive weekly pumps.
• 5 straight weeks of gains for tech and that is amazing on how market can be so irrational.
• Meanwhile META and PLTR aren't getting the love for now.
• New position into RDDT at 163 and then it got dumped again on Fri.
• Will continue to add more if it falls to 140 and 125.
• Slightly more aggressive positions into SMH CSPs currently, unlikely to see big pullbacks but hope to see some less volatile movements.
• Need to be more passive about market movements, either I buy more or just let it be.

• Bought ticket for soccer match next week.
• Life is feeling very weird for me, especially my attitude nowadays.
• Somehow getting triggered by little stuff from her.
• Received my FR 165, still got to test w phone sensor.
• Booked IPPT for next Wed, shall see how my running will do. Should be able to get a minimum silver.
• Only good thing I can see now is probably running more often...pkl

Ath what's new?

Stoks

• Another record closing for the markets as big tech shows better than expected earnings.
• Biggest winner was GOOG among the 4 big tech which posted results after market close on Wed.
• APPL pushed market even higher on Fri after strong quarterly sales.
• Semis had some slow down for the week after OpenAI revealed lesser than expected revenue but thanks to AMD and INTC, SMH still managed to gain 0.67% for the week vs 1.55% for QQQ.
• GOOG was outstanding in their cloud segment, up over 60% yoy but still lost to AWS in terms of amount.
• Unlikely to see short term negatives for now given the increasing fomo in the markets.
• Memory stocks continued their upward trend, all the popular names hit ath again as expected.
• DBS earnings was also better than previous quarter, their non interest managed to offset the drop in interest income giving a positive 1% gain yoy in net profit.
• Market loved this and pumped the stock back to 59+ if last 0.81c of dividend was included.
• Ex div next week on 8th May, will drip back the div again.
• Looking forward to PLTR earnings next week, sold 5x125 puts in case results turn for the worst.
• If that happens, PLTR will surge to my largest holding to more than 5%.
• Rolled my 193K worth of 5 SMH puts in 3x470 puts as well.
• Started new position into META after >capex scared the market into dumping it. Will continue to monitor if price goes to 580.
• IV isn't moving accordingly, at 30+% definitely not worth to sell puts on it.
• Started back on CSPs for IBIT, used the premiums for DCA. Not in a rush to accumulate.
• Should see another green week for QQQ, at this point funds should be the only one buying.

Up-ed approx 10K for the week, just barely back to pf amt in 20Feb when QQQ is more than 10%.

Congrats on earning that peanut 50USD in MMF

• Currently feeling like a loser with my money mindset now, fking cancer.
• Gotta take my IPPT soon, 3 more mths before next window opens...pkl

No stopping thks to semicon.

 Stoks

• Just when you thought things can take a breather, the markets prove why it can stay irrational more than you can stay rational.
• QQQ had 2 red days this week but somehow the even more hyped semicon industry pulled it up to aths on Fri closing.
• As of last closing, SMH has been up 17 days in a row with >4% gap up to end the week.
• At this point, it's scary to see how much fomo has entered the market.
• Selling 12% discount monthly puts can't even cover a single share of SMH now.
• Closed some SMH puts and rotated to the laggards like TSLA and PLTR.
• Hopefully they don't play catchup too soon else there will be nothing to sell puts on.
• Fomo-ed some into SMH and PLTR, got 100 more shares of D05 when it went under 57.
• Will continue to accumulate DBS if it goes down.
• Just waiting for the semis to pullback if given the chance but very risky to go in now due to lower rtr ratio.
• NVDA finally reclaimed the 5T MC after it closed above 200 after peak in Oct25.
• Weird situation now where oil is still high, DXY and markets also went up.
• Waiting for some weekend threatens from DT again, definitely a pattern of Fri pumps and Sun threats.

Up-ed approx 15K which is pathetic in the grand scheme.

Under-performing QQQ badly lol.

Trump fking manipulator, US markets ATH again and again.

Stoks

• Peace talks last week was unsuccessful as expected and markets were expected to fall this week.
• Somehow, 'good' news came one after another and then suddenly everything shot back up.
• Currently 13 days straight green days for Nasdaq after hitting ath on Wed.
• SNP is officially above 7000 and closed at 7.1k.
• Really cannot bet against the US, despite all the BS in their economy.
• FnG index went from lows of 9 to now 70 as of last closing in just 2 weeks.
• Managed to be in the green now but officially underperformed the index as of now.
• D05 isn't getting much love now compared to OCBC.
• Funds could be shifting back to US given more stability in their economy.
• Closed most of my tech CSPs and shifted it to SMH for easier monitoring.
• If semis go down, general index will follow so just gonna take more risk for the premiums.
• Despite aths, top 10 companies have not reached their 52 week highs so where are the gains coming from?
• Saas companies have started their recovery after the Sassapocalypse.
• Nothing much to buy now given valuations are at 90% highs, hopefully to get some healthy pullbacks.
• Will use premiums from SMH to dca into SMH.
• Greed is quite obvious in the market now so best to be cautious.
• Received DBS div and just KIV for future expenses.

Up-ed approx 17K for the week, another +6% for QQQ. Tiny green for the year.

• Met up with frens for a first S-league live match, interesting experience ngl...pkl

All is good?

Stoks

• Very scary week, weekends started with DT threatening to bomb bridges and power plants on Mon.
• Tues came with an even more scary threat of him saying to destroy an entire civilization by Wed 8am GMT+8
• Markets went down for fear that things may escalate out of control and chance of nuclear attacks may be unavoidable.
• Turns out TACO again and markets gapped up >3% on Wed, followed by 2 green days. Overall 8 days of uptrend since the bottom on 30th March.
• Looks like things may be settling for now until the 2 weeks ceasefire period ends.
• Satanyahoo may not be able to accept a now even stronger Iran before the attacks started on 28Feb.
• SOH is still closed and now possibly to charge toll fees per ship passing through and also no restrictions to development their nuclear program.
• Oil is still at mid 90s so inflation is unlikely to go down thks to this unnecessary war.
• QQQ performance is catching up and at the rate of my CSP gains, probably will underperform if things get better.
• Bought PLTR before it decided to crash almost 20% after TACO Tuesday, sold puts initially but decided to take the L and bought shares instead.
• Closed TSLA puts and will keep MU as the low 5% yield. The two buddies, TSLA and PLTR volatility is abit too much for me to handle.
• Now holding a big chunk of Semis, opened new pos on SMH which hit ATHs yes fomo again.
• TSMC results managed to push semis sector on Fri with NVDA trying to reclaim the 190s next week hopefully.
• AVGO is the champion, always the outperformer besides NVDA.
• Will continue to do CSP on NVDA AVGO and TSM. Semi really bobehzao but IV is dropping fast.
• Ex-div for DBS, drip back for both accounts now holding 9K shares combined.

Up-ed approx 10K for the week, despite QQQ up-ing almost 5%. Still down 0.7% for the year, +37K if nothing was done on DBS.

Short week

Stoks

• Quite a strong recovery week for US as Trump decided to pump with his usual tactics.
• This week had a gain of almost 5% for QQQ.
• Despite the uncertainty over the weekends, market decided to go up against the negativity.
• Paper handed my delta 10 MU puts only to see it go up.
• Plan to just sell delta 5 puts purely on MU, est yield to be at 6% which is more than enough for such a volatile stock.
• Good thing was I bought more of other stocks on Mon.
• But overall portfolio still barely positive as biggest 2 positions of GOOG and NVDA is still red.
• Closed some of GOOG puts in the green to make holdings more balanced.
• Trying to make NVDA and AVGO my 2nd and 3rd position sizing.

• Another laosai week for indexes, QQQ down 3.5% for the week, YTD almost 9% down.
• Will probably see 10% next week as long DT and N continues to do stupid shit to destroy the entire world's economy.
• Started the week with him postponing his attack on energy infrastructures to 5 days.
• Market believed him until it didn't, pure manipulation at its' best.
• His so called talks were constantly denied by Iran and very contradicting as troops are still being sent to ME.
• If that ground invasion really happens, can only say rip to those soldiers and also goodbye stock market.

• Sold some D05 at a loss, now just holding 200 shares which will only increase if it goes below 55.
• Bought more counters except TSLA, will waiting for assignment on this.
• Better to buy individual counters over indexes if prices continue going down.

WLWL US indexes going down

Stoks

• Last minute pump by DT by saying to consider "winding down" operations in Iran.
• Abit bullshit but somehow markets believed him and shot up almost 1% in the AH.
• Will need to see how things progress in the weekend.
• D05 managed to recover almost 5% for this week, fomo backed around 57.78 to now total of 2070 shares.
• Won't be adding until 54 and below. Most likely to see some drops next week unless STI is really the safe heaven for funds.
• Focusing on US options for now and managed to mitigate some paper losses from earlier puts sold.
• Have 80K worth of NVDA options expiring next week, hopefully price can drop lower so I can sell puts at a comfortable rate. Volatility is decreasing sadly.
• TSLA looks like the one which may be exercised soon but will probably try to roll it downwards.
• Not really keen to own TSLA tbh but oh well.

Dogshit POS Trump

Stoks

• Started the week off with $120 oil price thks to pointless attacks from DT and N.
• Somehow markets are still resilient and more oil barrels are scheduled to be released although it will definitely be insufficient if the war drags on.
• All was good until Thurs and prices started going back to 90s.
• SOH is officially closed by Iran and any enemy ships will be attacked regardless.
• Continued selling puts on NVDA and GOOG, started new into AVGO and the OG cult TSLA.
• Most of the options will be monthly delta 10 except for GOOG, meanwhile putting some of the cash into MMFs.
• Shall see how things go from here, bought more DBS when it went to the 54s.
• Lows of the week was 53.50 but didn't manage to catch it, will do so if it goes back to that level.
• Holding 1070 shares as of today, no rush to DCA.

• First half of the day was decent but stock continued to sell down to support level of 55s.
• Already lost more than 100K paper gains in Feb alone.
• Decided that risking my paper gains wasn't worth it, made the choice to clear entire holding.
• If markets decide to play me then so be it, at least I locked in 460K of gains.
• Will wait till at least 50 if I were to start another position there.
• Bought more D05 for TBL, now holding 7900. Will slowly buy more as it goes down.
