Bonus Chart — EM Equity Allocations VS Equities Market Cap Weight

1.Bonus Chart 1 — EM Equity AllocationsThis chart shows the market share of dedicated emerging market equity funds in both the US mutual fund market and ETF market — we can think of this as the implied allocation by investors to emerging market equities (in the aggregate).So it’s fascinating then to see that mutual fund investors have an implied ~3% allocation to emerging market equities, while ETF investors are not much better; with 4% (which is down substantially from recent years, and a fraction of where it peaked at over 20% at the height of the post-08 recovery EM climax).But really the key point is investors are running materially lower allocations than that seen over the past 20 years, and as you’ll see in the next chart… it’s also a fraction of the global market cap weight of EM eq

Chart of the Week - Emerging Markets

Although there have been many false dawns over the past decade-and-a-half, there is good reason to believe that now is one of the best times in recent history to expect a turn in the long-term cycle of Emerging vs Developed market equity dominance.Here’s why we should be looking at EM to start outperforming vs DM:Valuations: on a variety of metrics, EM equities are trading at a major valuation discount vs developed market equities; this is an important starting point, but it’s also something that has been true for quite some time (so we also need to consider other factors when it comes to timing and conviction).Allocations: as detailed in the bonus chart section below, investor allocations to EM equities are well below average, and represent major underweights vs the market cap weight of e

SPX remains vulnerable to a potential shakeout before reaching the 6250–6265 targets

$S&P 500(.SPX)$ remains vulnerable to a potential shakeout before reaching the 6250–6265 targets.Watch the Daily FVG support at 6175–6146 for long opportunities toward those levels for the 5th wave.The ultimate upside target is 6500, but a break below the 2/4 trendline, around 6100, would warn of a delay -> likely triggering a retest of the 50- and 200-day MAs first. $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ $E-mini S&P 500 - main 2509(ESmain)$ $NASDAQ 100(NDX)$ $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$ $E-mini Nasdaq 100 - main 2509(NQmain)$ ImageIma

$SOFI 20250718 15.5 PUT$ SoFI: collect 1.6% premium on these cash secured puts with strike at $15.5.Contract expires in 3 weeks on 18th July. All my SoFI holdings look set to be called away on the last trading day of 27th June as part of covered call with the same strike of $15.5 expired in the money. SoFI exploded upwards to close $17.18 and went as high as $17.52 on the final day on a very bullish momentum for the past month. Had predicted this scenario in the past weeks. Decided to not roll and chase profits but instead opt to cash out regardless. At some point I think SoFI will be short term over bought and might stay in range or mild correction to lower levels. These sold fresh puts with same strike of $15.5

Sold this new short call with strike at $420 to allow some buffer despite that I think the resistance at $400 will still hold as long as BTC stays within range and not breaking out above $112k.

$NVO 20250718 65.0 PUT$ NVO: collect 1% premium from this cash secured puts with strike at $65. Contract expires in 3 weeks on 18th July. After the break up between NVO and HIMs, both companies suffered a drop in stock price. While the partnership had collapsed, the market for weigh loss drugs are still competitive, in high demand and lucrative.Guess it's picking some potential value while the company navigates its next move. Usually they might partner with another player in the market for the same functions as HIMs and business as usual. Time will tell.

Selling these puts with intention to both collect some premium and also to cover back the shorts at price point lower than my holding cost for slight capital gain. Gold seems to be trending lower on lower volatility in the market, bullish stock market and sentiments at greed levels so accumulate with intention for a rebound. Another opportunistic play on Gold trades using gold miners as proxies.

$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ On Monday, 18,000 contracts of the 155 puts expiring this week were opened, clearly a bearish signal. The stock is expected to pull back to below 155 but remain above 150. On the bullish side, sell-call strategies dominate, making it unlikely for the stock to reach 160 this week.Of particular note is that the “$200 Million Trader” rolled their September 125 and 130 calls into the September 140 calls. Not only was the strike price increased, but the trading volume also picked up, indicating that this trader is optimistic about NVIDIA’s stock performance during earnings season.The stock is likely to close this week between 150–160, or possibly between 155–160. $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ The argumen
