Nvidia GTC 2025: What's Your Trading Plan at $120?
Nvidia (NVDA) has been the center of attention in the stock market, driven by its dominance in AI, data centers, and GPUs. However, despite its strong fundamentals, the stock's price feels too high for me, and I don’t plan to buy it—whether there’s good news, bad news, or no news. NVIDIA (NVDA) Why I’m Staying on the Sidelines? 1. Valuation Feels Too High Nvidia's stock has seen massive gains over the past few years, and while its business remains strong, the valuation appears stretched. Many investors are chasing the AI boom, which may have led to excessive optimism and overpricing. 2. The Market’s Overfocus on Nvidia There’s an overwhelming amount of hype surrounding Nvidia, which makes me cautious. When too many investors are piling into a stock, the risk of a correction increases. I pr
What Lessons Help You Stop Losing Money in the Stock Market?
Investing in the stock market can be challenging, especially when you find yourself holding onto a losing position, as I am with Occidental Petroleum (OXY). My experience has taught me several important lessons about managing losses and making smarter investment decisions. Here are some key takeaways: 1. Be Cautious with the "Buy the Dip" Strategy Initially, I kept buying OXY on dips, thinking I was getting a bargain. However, I realized that blindly buying the dip can lead to accumulating more unrealized losses if the stock continues to decline. A better approach is to wait for confirmation that the stock has found a true bottom rather than catching a falling knife. Occidental (OXY) 2. Know When to Reduce Position Size Over time, I started buying the dip less frequently because I saw that
The one economic report that I did not share last Fri, 21 Mar 2025 was Thursday’s US weekly jobless claims. Thought I better do so before this week’s list of economic reports are due. For week ending 15 Mar 2025, weekly jobless claims rose by +2,000 to a seasonally adjusted 223,000. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast 224,000 claims for the latest week. Claims have been bouncing in the middle of the 203,000-242,000 range in 2025 (so far), with layoffs generally staying low and hiring cooling off. Latest claims is coming in ‘lower’ than the 4 week moving average of 227,000, that is ‘good’ news. Even Fed Chair Jerome Powell commented on Wed’s FOMC post conference where he attested that "conditions in the labour market are broadly in balance." Weekly beginning 24 Mar 2025. As we inched
From Now to 2nd April. According to strategists at $Goldman Sachs(GS)$ - US stock market may struggle to gain meaningful traction over the next two weeks. GS attribute this to the lingering uncertainty surrounding upcoming tariffs, which are expected to take effect on 02 Apr 2025 (7 working days later). With markets waiting for clarity on these levies, major stock indexes are likely to lack clear direction in the near term. Uncertainty between ‘now’ (23 Mar 2025) and two weeks later means it is going to be difficult for US market to rally substantially over a short window. Despite this, GS thinks it's good news for the market that investors may have already priced in a significant tariff increase. Uncertainty remains on what will happen after the an

How Rising Interest Rates Are Reshaping Stock Valuations Across Sectors
Did you know that a 1% increase in interest rates can lead to a 10% drop in stock prices for some sectors? As central banks, led by the Federal Reserve, tighten monetary policy to combat soaring inflation, the stock market is feeling the heat.

Costco Stock Pullback -18% A Decade Buying Opportunity?
$Costco(COST)$ Stock Performance and Recent Decline Costco's stock has dropped 15% in the past few months, which is a rare occurrence for a company like this. Costco is one of the most successful stocks of all time, having increased by 13,000%. Many people, myself included, have long hoped and wished for Costco to ever trade at a reasonable multiple or rational valuation so we could invest in it for the long term.
