Ethereum Hits New High as Expected, but Volatility Sends Warning Signals
In early August, after Ethereum surged past 4000 with strong momentum, we predicted that bulls would inevitably need to push for a new high. Last week, following Powell’s comments hinting at rate cuts, ETH quickly rallied and ultimately surpassed the late 2021 peak. However, numerous indicators suggest this breakout and new high may not be solid, pointing to a risk of a bull trap.The first signal we focus on is the Average True Range (ATR) volatility indicator. Unlike many assets, Ethereum’s price moves show a clear positive correlation with ATR, indicating ETH behaves more like a cyclical commodity than a pure risk asset like U.S. stocks. Around several notable peaks, volatility has been elevated. Yet, the current new highs—compared to those in 2021 and 2024—feature volatility levels at r

Deliberation. I have deliberated on whether to put out a post on Warren Buffett’s $Berkshire Hathaway(BRK.B)$ 13F filings for Q2 2025. This is because I am getting a rather ‘poor’ readership on posts about investment gurus 13F holdings eg. Michael Burry(90 Reposts only) and Bill Ackman (966 Reposts); not to mention ‘mixed’ grading by Tiger. Hence my hesitation. After weighing the benefits to readers and also that I like to know what Buffett is buying before he hands over the rein to Greg Abel in December 2025, here I am - sharing what I have learnt. 13F Filing - latest. Mr Buffett has been a net seller

Alibaba Earnings Face-Off: Food Delivery War or AI Capex to Drive the Surge?
$Alibaba(BABA)$ Alibaba Group is on the brink of its Q2 2025 earnings release on August 29, 2025, with market eyes locked on whether its food delivery battles or AI infrastructure investments will steer the stock higher. Analysts forecast revenue of RMB 266 billion (+9.4% YoY), driven by e-commerce and cloud growth, but adjusted EBITA of RMB 35.3 billion (-21.7% YoY) reflects heavy capex in AI amid competition from Pinduoduo and ByteDance's Ele.me. With the S&P 500 at 6,466.58, Bitcoin at $115,000, and oil at $75/barrel under 30-35% tariffs, the VIX at 14.49 signals calm, but Alibaba's RSI at 55 suggests room for movement. Is Alibaba a superior long-term hold? Will the food delivery war erode profits? Has PDD's risk evaporated post-management'
