Closing my position on $TGT 20250905 105.0 PUT$ bought prior to $Target(TGT)$ earning's results. The earnings release met the already lowered targets, however Target announced that longtime veteran and current Chief Operating Officer Michael Fiddelke will succeed CEO Brian Cornell on Feb. 1. Cornell will then transition to the role of executive chair of Targets board of directors. This added uneaseness and loss of confidence in investors.

Will a Fed Rate Cut Shake Up Your Options? | #OptionsHandbook EP029
Everyone’s guessing when the Fed will finally cut rates. But how do you know if your options will be affected? That’s where Rho (ρ) comes in. 📒 In The Options Handbook, the explanation is pretty clear: ▶ What Rho means 💡 Rho tells you how much the option price changes with a 1% interest rate increase. It matters most for long-term options, while short-term traders can mostly ignore it. ▶ When to watch Rho? ⏱️ Sudden rate cut/hike rumors. Around big Fed meetings (like FOMC). Trading long-term options (6+ months). The longer the maturity, the stronger the impact. During big economic swings—like recessions or fast recoveries. ▶ How to use Rho in practice? 🎯 If you’re expecting a rate cut, long Puts g
LAUNCH TECH: High Growth, High Yield, and the Promise of RWA
LAUNCH TECH is dedicated to the research, development, and production of professional vehicle diagnostics, ADAS calibration tools, DIY tools, tire equipment, inspection and maintenance equipment, lifts, and more. I chose to invest in this company because of its compelling valuation. With a growth company P/E ratio of 11 and a dividend yield of 7%, the valuation is exceptionally low. Today, Launch Tech announced its entry into RWA (Real World Asset) technology, which is particularly promising. RWA technology, in essence, involves converting tangible assets such as real estate, art, or commodities into digital tokens on the blockchain. This process, known as tokenization, facilitates fractional ownership, enhances liquidity, and ensures more transparent transactions.
$WeRide Inc.(WRD)$ 🚨 Critical Review: WeRide’s Partnership with Grab WeRide’s much-touted partnership with Grab has been marketed as a breakthrough for autonomous mobility in Southeast Asia, but a closer look raises more red flags than opportunities. 1. Execution Risks in Emerging Markets Grab operates in markets with poor infrastructure, inconsistent regulations, and unpredictable traffic conditions. Rolling out autonomous vehicles in such environments will be far more complex than in the U.S. or China. The likelihood of operational delays, safety issues, and regulatory pushback is high. 2. Regulatory Uncertainty Unlike China or the U.S., Southeast Asia does not have a mature autonomous vehicle regulatory fram
Jackson Hole Context Though Similar To 2022 Different In Crucial Ways
The upcoming Jackson Hole symposium presents a complex and high-stakes scenario for markets, and while there are some similarities to 2022, the context is different in crucial ways. Comparison to Jackson Hole 2022 The most notable similarity is the presence of high inflation and a strong interest rate environment. In August 2022, the Fed was in the midst of an aggressive rate-hiking cycle, with rates at 2.25%-2.50% and climbing. Fed Chair Jerome Powell's speech was famously short and hawkish, explicitly stating that the Fed was committed to bringing down inflation, even at the cost of "some pain" for the economy. This stance crushed market hopes for a quick policy pivot and led to a sharp sell-off in both stocks and bonds. Now, in August 2025, the U.S. has seen an aggressive rate-hiking cy
🌟🌟🌟All eyes will be on Jerome Powell on Friday. If his speech is hawkish, it may trigger a selloff. To me it is not a signal to flee. It is actually a chance to lean in and grab quality stocks such as $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ $Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$ that could be oversold. If the market drops it is not long term doom. Volatility around Jackson Hole summits is common. Tech and growth stocks may take a hit while defensive stocks, dividend players and value plays may shine brighter. As Warren Buffett likes to say It is time in the market that counts, not timing the market. @Tiger_comments
I. Performance and Valuation of Global Equity Indices Data Source: Bloomberg, Tiger Key Highlights ◼ Last week, growing expectations of a Fed rate cut continued to drive global capital markets higher, with notable gains in non-U.S. equities and U.S. small caps. The Nikkei 225, Russell 2000, as well as the CSI 300 and Hang Seng Index all posted weekly gains of more than 2%. By contrast, previously overheated U.S. large-cap tech stocks entered a consolidation phase, leaving the Nasdaq and S&P 500 slightly lagging. Overall, market sentiment remains strong. ◼ Recently, U.S. July PPI unexpectedly surged to its highest level in nearly three years, far exceeding both forecasts and the previous reading, seemingly challenging the rate-cut narrative suggested by CPI. However, the PPI data is not
Jackson Hole Preview: Brace for a Potential Hawkish Surprise The Spotlight Shifts to Grand Teton This Friday, the global financial world will turn its attention to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, as Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell delivers his highly anticipated speech at the annual central bank symposium. Historically a crucial platform for the Fed to signal its policy direction, this year's meeting carries extra weight. The market is on high alert for any clues that might greenlight a September rate cut. Currently, traders are betting on an 80% chance of a 25-basis-point reduction next month. From Inflation to Employment: A Key Policy Pivot The theme of this year's conference, "The Evolving Labor Market: Demographic, Productivity, and Macro Policy," might sound academic, but its message is
$MARA 20250822 15.0 PUT$ MARA had come down a fair bit and at risk of hitting the strike at $15. Decided to not wait till expiry and close it for small profit instead. Will open new trades to adjust the strike and delta back to reasonable margin so as risk of assignment is minimised.

Wall Street's 'AI 30 ': Who's In, Who's Out? Just before the Jackson Hole meeting, Meta unexpectedly announced a shift in its AI strategy, sparking risk-off sentiment in markets. Still, Morgan Stanley is bullish on AI. The bank says AI could add $13 trillion to $16 trillion in value to the S&P 500, potentially lifting the index's market cap by as much as 29%. Strategists also see big opportunities in new AI types: “agentic AI,” which makes decisions with less human input, could add $490 billion in value, while “embodied AI,” or humanoid robots, could contribute around $430 billion. At the start of the year, Wedbush analyst Daniel Ives described the AI boom as the “fourth industrial revolution” and launched the firm's “AI 30” list of top players in the sector. Recently, Wedbush updated
