Bitcoin (BTC) Institutional Accumulation Diverges from Retail Sentiment Bitcoin (BTC) is currently trading around the $69,000 mark, showing a slight decrease of approximately 1.25% over the last 24 hours. Despite this minor retracement, the market is witnessing a significant divergence between retail sentiment and institutional action. While social media metrics indicate that bearish posts continue to outnumber bullish ones—suggesting retail investors remain hesitant—institutional giants are aggressively accumulating. SkyBridge Capital’s Anthony Scaramucci confirmed that his firm has increased its Bitcoin holdings at price points of $84,000, $63,000, and within the current range [ChainCatcher]. Similarly, MicroStrategy’s Michael Saylor remains steadfast, predicting that Bitcoin will "dou
$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ ready guys! It's coming down but means we can buy again soon! Let's wait for the good chances to take profit! $Apple(AAPL)$ another nice share I am monitoring! Same way for this share! Gogogo!
$Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$ It has been a wild ride this past week as my META position came one full circle. After a solid earnings report, the stock initially gapped up about 10%, only to see those gains completely wiped out as the price slid back down over the following days. This earnings season has felt particularly punishing for big tech, with massive Capital Expenditure (Capex) being the primary culprit for the volatility. It seems like every major tech player announcing ambitious plans for future AI expansion has met the same fate: their stock prices tank. Investors are clearly spooked by the eye-watering costs—with some estimates putting collective 2026 Capex for the "hyperscalers" at over $600 billio
$ASML 20260206 1210.0 CALL$ Managed a wild ride as the stock rallied over 30% in just a month. While the 1x short call took a significant hit from that "fast and furious" upside move, the 2x long calls more than pulled their weight, generating enough gains to fully offset the loss and secure a net credit. Successfully closed out the entire position, including the previous rolled-up-and-out gains, proving the value of that built-in protection when things get volatile.
$Novo-Nordisk A/S(NVO)$ Took some profits previously and only holding a small portion. Will consider to add some on dips again for this giant Danish pharma.
$AmovaEFund ChiNext S$(CXT.SI)$ sharing profitable trades for coins. Will be cashing this out as my CNY ang pow so this will be my last time sharing profit from CXT. Got them at IPO at $1 a piece so am happy with the gains over the past many months.
Technology stock callback warning: TSM guards first
In the past two weeks,$Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSM) $ fluctuated and strengthened in the high range, but the intraday fluctuation was significantly amplified. Near the latest trading time on February 11, the stock price was about 361.91 US dollars, and the intraday high and low range was about 356.42-367.33 US dollars, indicating that bulls are still dominant, but the high divergence is increasing and the flexibility of the pullback/retracement is also rising. In terms of news, the most critical incremental information in the near future comes from the company's revenue disclosed in January 2026: approximately NT $401.26 billion, 36.8% year-on-year and 19.8% month-on-month. This data is generally interpreted by the market as the continued
Gold I earned $350 in 2 weeks ! How can I stay in the trade, but get paid for the risk?
That’s where the covered call comes in. ⸻ The Covered Call Decision: Selling the $94 Call 🧠 I sold 1 IAU call option with the following details: • Strike price: $94 • Premium received: ~$2.00 • Time to expiry: ~4 days • Position: Covered (I own the shares) This immediately achieved three objectives. ⸻ Objective 1: Locking in Income Immediately 💵 By selling the call, I received $200 upfront (since options are for 100 shares). That money is realized profit the moment the trade is filled. No matter what happens next: • If IAU drops → I keep the premium • If IAU goes sideways → I keep the premium • If IAU rises above $94 → I still keep the premium This instantly transformed paper profit into cash. ⸻ Objective 2: Defining a Profitable Exit 🎯 Selling the $94 call means I agree to sell my shares
Hot Metal, Hot Takes: Why a 60× P/E Aluminium Smelter Might Actually Make Sense
I am acutely aware that pitching an aluminium producer at a tech-stock multiple sounds like a violation of several unwritten investing laws. Aluminium is supposed to be dull, cyclical, and cheap—something you hedge, not something you underwrite with conviction. Yet $Century Aluminum(CENX)$ has forced me into an awkward position: defending a 60× P/E smelter as a rational way to play US reshoring, industrial policy, and ESG-driven scarcity. If nothing else, this is proof that the market has entered a strange new phase of adulthood. Aluminium reshaped by innovation, policy, and ESG imperatives This is not a value story. It is not even really a commodity story. It is a policy-enabled growth trade disguised as heavy industry, and the sooner investors a
$Oscar Health, Inc.(OSCR)$ 🏥 Oscar Health — Inflection Analysis This is a completed operating turnaround trading like a policy casualty. Oscar has reached scale profitability as a tech-native ACA insurer, but the stock is being dominated by fear around the 2026 subsidy cliff rather than fundamentals. 📈 Inflection status: CONFIRMED POSITIVE → STABILIZING Annual momentum remains intact despite near-term policy noise.

This looks far more like post-earnings digestion than the start of a structural bank rotation. For DBS Group, the sell-off is understandable. The Q4 miss was driven by net interest margin compression, not a deterioration in asset quality or franchise strength. With rates normalising, NIM pressure is a sector-wide reality rather than a DBS-specific flaw. Fee income growth of +13.5% shows the underlying business mix is holding up well. Context matters. After a ~60% rally and fresh highs, expectations were elevated. Any earnings disappointment was likely to trigger profit-taking, especially as investors recalibrate forward ROE assumptions in a lower-rate environment. Crucially, capital returns change the risk profile. A 38% jump in total dividends to S$3.06, with visibility on capital return
This is not a clean rotation moment, but rather a sequencing question. Gold reclaiming the $5,000/oz handle after a violent pullback is consistent with trend consolidation, not exhaustion. The structural drivers remain intact: central-bank accumulation, fiscal dominance risk, and portfolio hedging demand. From that perspective, JPMorgan’s view, as articulated by strategist Jason Hunter of JPMorgan, is internally consistent. Copper leading in Q2 also makes sense tactically. Copper is more sensitive to: inventory restocking, China demand stabilisation, infrastructure and grid spending tied to electrification and AI capex. That argues for selective rotation into copper-linked cyclicals, but not wholesale liquidation of gold. Historically, in late-cycle or policy-uncertain environments, gold a
This rebound does not yet qualify as a durable risk-on turn. It has many hallmarks of a positioning reset, not renewed conviction. The scale of the bounce in the S&P 500 looks impressive on the surface, but the underlying signals are less convincing. Elevated implied volatility, below-average participation, and the sharp move in Goldman’s short-bias basket all point to short covering and mechanical flows, rather than long-only re-engagement. When rallies are led by what investors were forced to buy back, rather than what they want to own, follow-through tends to be fragile. The AI angle matters here. The market is increasingly questioning winner-takes-most dynamics, especially in software, where pricing power, differentiation, and customer lock-in are far less assured than in AI infras
Navigating the 2026 Market Turmoil: Promising Sectors and Undervalued Stocks to Consider
As we navigate the early months of 2026, the stock market continues to experience periods of volatility. Elevated valuations in certain areas, combined with ongoing geopolitical tensions, policy shifts including tariffs, and a rotation away from some high-flying tech names, have created choppy conditions. While the broader market shows resilience with earnings growth expectations remaining solid, downturns and pullbacks present opportunities for patient investors to add quality positions at more attractive prices. This environment favors a selective approach: focusing on sectors with strong fundamentals, defensive characteristics, or secular tailwinds that appear undervalued relative to their long-term potential. Below, we explore some of the most promising sectors amid the current turmoil
