If you're feeling a bit demotivated by the current market action. I'll carve out some time to share my 2025 YTD trading statistics and data breakdown.

Stock market analysis also follows trends. If you experienced the 2022 bear market and were active on social media, you likely recall the proliferation of Elliott Wave "experts," with every move neatly labeled as an ABC or a 1-5 sequence. When those patterns failed, the conversation would shift to the truncations of zigzags or flats.One crucial lesson I've learned over years in the stock market is that constantly switching between different analytical approaches can be costly. Every indicator offers a probability that fluctuates with price action. While understanding which indicators best explain current market movements is helpful, relying solely on statistical probabilities can be risky, as this approach often overlooks crucial chart patterns and overextended conditions.Today, the statis
Chris Igou:Central Banks Aren’t the Only Ones Buying Gold Now
$Gold - main 2506(GCmain)$ has been on a tear. It recently skyrocketed above $3,000 per ounce after a blistering rally last year.But most folks misunderstand the current rally. That's because it wasn't retail investors driving the gold price boom... It was the central banks.Central banks bought 18 tonnes of gold in January alone. This continues the trend from 2024, when central banks added 1,045 tonnes to their reserves.Last year wasn't a one-off, either. Central banks more than doubled their gold-buying in 2023 from the two years prior. And while some institutions pause purchases from time to time, others tend to pick up the slack.This trend is changing, though. Now, retail investors are beginning to buy. And as I'll share today, that's anoth

Chips, Dips, and Billion-Dollar Flips: Is Nvidia Still the Smartest Trillion-Dollar Bet?
Under the Hood of Silicon Valley’s Crown Jewel—Are We Early, Late, or Just in Time? As an investor, I’m naturally wary when Wall Street begins to sound like a fan club. But when a stock with a $2.7 trillion valuation is still being touted as the best trillion-dollar buy—as $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ now is—it’s enough to make even the most sceptical among us pause mid-sip and raise an eyebrow. The Street sees 58% upside from current levels, outpacing Amazon’s by a clear 14 percentage points. Not bad for a company already halfway to the moon. So, is there really more rocket fuel left? Or are we just gawking at contrails? Crowned by Code, Fuelled by Silicon—Nvidia’s Throne Endures GPU King? More Like AI Empire Let’s not dance around the obvious—Nvidia’s domina

Amid escalating U.S.-China trade tensions and President Trump’s imposition of 145% tariffs on Chinese goods, Tesla (TSLA) faces short-term supply chain disruptions, particularly for Cybercab and Semi components. Yet, these challenges pale in comparison to Tesla’s long-term growth potential. With its technological prowess, global market agility, and unmatched brand equity, Tesla is not merely an electric vehicle (EV) pioneer but a vanguard of the transportation and energy revolution. This article explores why, despite trade war headwinds, Tesla’s stock remains a compelling long-term investment, driven by its strategic resilience, diversified growth engines, and formidable competitive moat. Short-Term Headwinds: A Bump, Not a Roadblock On April 16, 2025, Reuters reported that Trump’s tariffs
$VanEck Semiconductor ETF(SMH)$ Yesterday, we mentioned in our article that someone made a big move—selling 120,000 contracts of the $SMH 20250425 175.0 PUT$ , which is a “sell put” strategy. Literally speaking, this means he believes SMH won’t break below its previous low before April 25.But here’s the question: if you rewind to before Tuesday, was this strategy really in line with the current trend? New options traders probably think it’s fine, but seasoned players might raise an eyebrow after seeing this.Then on Tuesday, there was another big trade—44,000 contracts opened on the $SMH 20250425 175.0 PUT$ , but th
Just when the markets seemed to find their footing, fresh tariff tensions have re-entered the scene — and the S&P 500 is showing signs of stress. With volatility creeping back and investor sentiment turning cautious, the question on many traders’ minds is this: are we about to revisit the recent lows… or worse? Historically, double bottoms form when a market tests its previous low, shakes out the weak hands, and either rebounds or breaks. But in this case, global macro conditions aren't making things easy. Tariff battles, especially between the U.S. and China, are flaring up again, and this time they’re hitting sensitive sectors like semiconductors, EVs, and tech hardware — the very pillars that propped up recent market gains. Earnings season has been a mixed bag, inflation prints rema
