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.








1.266 USD FX












Added more SMH from premium DCA




Life
  • Sista talk ended well so let things settle on their own.
  • MW went for his neuter procedure on TBL's birthday, ended well with 2 additional teeth extraction.
  • Had 8crabs for dinner, was decent but not the best.
  • Sent car for radio diagnosis and was proposed to change the entire player system at 499 but was denied due to price.
  • Somehow, the removal of the wiring managed to reset the system and made everything back to normal.
  • Paid 50 for labour instead of 499. Bird-day luck indeed.
  • Met up with frens for a first S-league live match, interesting experience ngl...pkl
