$Rocket Lab USA, Inc.(RKLB)$ so everyone. If you have followed me for a while you know im in unconditional love with rocket lab. But i have done the unthinkable. I sold half my position but i did two other things. First though, why did i sell half my position. Well since January its been extremely volatile, highs above $32, lows in the $15 range. Because it represents way over 50% of my portfolio, well im getting emails on a daily basis telling Me a margin call is impending. Got as low as 4% liquidity! Nuts!!! So i halved my position to remove all margin. I sold out at around $20. Yep it was over $32 at one point so i realized a sad profit, but dont feel sorry just yet. My average buy price was $4.32, so i realized over $12,000. Could have been $2
$Rigetti Computing(RGTI)$$IONQ Inc.(IONQ)$ $D-Wave Quantum Inc.(QBTS)$$Rigetti Computing(RGTI)$ still reeling from the painful drop from $12 to $7. But at least it is recovering well. IONQ is the worst performing of all. it Sold off some much shares at market price. huge dilution. Lost a huge %. Luckily bought small to pay with. I like this article. Few bad things about IONQ - they changed CEO, meaning lack of leadership vision and continuity. Secondly, the sale at open market is just bad business acumen. They could have adopted
This week, I've been loading up on$Global X Nasdaq 100 Covered Call ETF(QYLD)$ , a strategic addition to my portfolio. I prefer QYLD over other Nasdaq-tracking ETFs due to its historically stable price action, courtesy of its covered call strategy. While QYLD may not offer the same growth potential as its unhedged counterparts, it more than makes up for it with consistent monthly dividend distributions. This steady income stream is ideal for reinvesting into my satellite portfolio, providing a regular influx of capital to optimize my overall portfolio performance. QYLD's unique blend of stability and income generation makes it an attractive holding for investors seeking to balance risk and reward. As a trader, I'm always on the lookout for op
$NVDA 20250328 130.0 CALL$ finally sold my NVDA calls, made a little profit but learned a valuable lesson. I first entered almost 2 weeks ago when NVDA was at 117, then again at 110 and then even lower at 1.06. The NVDA dip ended up lasting longer than I expected and eventhough the price went up to 121 when I tp'ed, the option decay had been so much I only got a little profit. Option decay meant that me buying earlier would have me needing the stock to go much higher in order to profit, than my entry. But here's what I should have done. As soon as my first trade at 117, became red, I should have kept calm and not averaged in, I got advice from a senior trader that NVDA usually goes down in cycles of about 3 days. He also sai
$S&P 500(.SPX)$ The U.S. Economy Takes Another Hit Investors Lose Confidence in Trump Global investors are losing confidence in Trump, despite his promises to restore America’s "Golden Age." His actions, however, suggest an economy in decline, with markets continuing to tumble. Meanwhile, his social media outbursts are becoming increasingly erratic. Escalating Trade Tensions Trump recently claimed that the U.S. lacks free trade and is being exploited by other nations. His solution? Doubling tariffs on Canada—just the beginning of escalating trade tensions. Over the coming weeks, the situation is expected to intensify. The administration is rolling out a 25% tariff on Mexico and Canada, along with a 20% tariff on China, marking the start of a d

NVIDIA’s GTC 2025: A Beacon in the Market Fog, Not a Lifeline
Part 1 of a GTC 2025 Commentary Series As NVIDIA’s ( $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ ) GTC 2025 kicks off today, March 17, in San Jose, the tech world—and Wall Street—turns its eyes to Jensen Huang. The conference, running through March 21, arrives at a precarious moment: the U.S. stock market is mired in volatility, AI’s explosive growth faces scrutiny, and NVIDIA, once the darling of the AI boom, navigates a crossroads of its own. A provocative quote circulating among analysts captures the stakes: “If Jen-Hsun Huang did not persuade Wall Street or NVIDIA revealed any pessimistic outlook on the future, then not only can it not promote the U.S. stock market to come out, but also the U.S. stock market as a whole will be pushed to greater trouble.” This is the fir
