JD Property Eyes $1B REIT in Singapore — A New Way to Play E-Commerce? 🏢📦 JD Property, the real estate and logistics arm of Chinese e-commerce giant JD.com $JD.com(JD)$ , is reportedly preparing a $1B REIT listing on the Singapore Exchange (SGX) in 2025. Backed by logistics parks and smart warehouses across China, this move isn’t just about raising capital — it could reshape how retail investors gain exposure to the fast-changing world of online retail and supply chains. The plan comes as e-commerce in Asia faces both explosive growth opportunities and intensifying competition. With JD.com locked in battles with Shopee, Lazada, and Temu, the real question is whether logistics infrastructure — rather than online storefronts — might be the
I think we can expect to flash sale in Singapore. New players typically do that as a form of advertising and to quickly wrestle some form of market share. As a consumer, I am definitely looking forward to that. I definitely use more shopee as there are more vouchers to use and there seem to be more sellers on the platform to suit my needs. At times, I may use Lazada for big ticket items if they are cheaper but seems like shopee has caught up with that too and I use lesser of Lazada. Lazada is definitely less user friendly compared to shopee when it comes to browsing for items to buy. Personally, shopee works very well for me and delivery is generally fast unless it is being shipped from overseas. As a consumer, I go with whichever that has the item that I want at the cheapest price a
I prefer infrastructure exposure — mainly stablecoins and exchanges. Stablecoins have limited upside but offer steadier returns, while exchanges like $Coinbase Global, Inc.(COIN)$ & $Robinhood(HOOD)$ provide more sustainable plays as institutions drive trading. This gives me crypto exposure without too much risk. Miners and treasuries are high-risk side bets. Miners might gain from lower energy costs but remain tied to Bitcoin’s swings. Treasuries like $MicroStrategy(MSTR)$ carry big upside but act like leveraged crypto, so I’d only take small positions. Between Coinbase
🌟🌟🌟Stablecoins & Crypto Exchanges are the foundation stones of the entire crypto ecosystem. Without them, the market will be a chaotic maze of volatility and friction. Stablecoins such as USDT & USDC are designed to maintain a steady value, typically pegged to fiat currencies like the US Dollar. Stablecoins enable fast, borderless payments without the wild swings of Bitcoin and Ethereum. In 2024, stablecoins processed USD 27.6 trillion in transactions, more than Visa & Mastercard combined. Crypto Exchanges like Coinbase, Binance are the gateways to Cryptocurrencies. Coinbase is the largest US crypto exchange. It facilitates price discovery and market access. Coinbase also provides custody & security for assets and act as liquidity hubs too. Wi
JD Property's SGD 1 Billion REIT: A Logistics Love Letter to Singapore
🌟🌟🌟JD Property isn't just testing the waters. It is diving in. With a planned SGD 1 Billion REIT backed by Partners Group and Hillhouse's EZA Hill Property, JD $JD-SW(09618)$ $JD.com(JD)$ is signalling serious intent. The acquisition of 4 industrial assets from Capitaland Ascendas REIT $CapLand Ascendas REIT(A17U.SI)$ for SGD 306 million is more than portfolio play. It is a strategic foothold. If JD Logistics follows suit and builds out its network here, Singapore's ECommerce landscape could feel a quiet tremor. JD's
📺🍿🚀 Netflix: From 1997 DVD Rentals to a $500B Streaming Titan; Breaking Key Levels 🚀🍿📺
$Amazon.com(AMZN)$$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ 🍿🎥🎞️ I love a long weekend off from the market to kick back with Netflix. I’m convinced this weekend proves timing is everything; happy 28th birthday to Netflix❣️🎂🎉🥳 Ancient mathematicians called 28 a perfect number, and this Friday marks 28 years since the company was founded in 1997 (first as a DVD rental service; streaming didn’t arrive until 2007). By that logic, we’re entering a perfect year, and what better way to celebrate than a birthday stream. The timing couldn’t be better either; KPop Demon Hunters just smashed records as Netflix’s most-watched film ever with 236M views, while My Life with the Walter Boys leads the TV charts

$Alphabet(GOOG)$ a notable shift in its portfolio: a revolutionary space stock has surged to the top, reflecting Alphabet’s conviction in next-generation technologies and long-term growth sectors. At the same time, the complete exit from a once significant AI-driven business (previously 15% of the portfolio) highlights strategic capital reallocation. These moves suggest Alphabet’s sharper focus on disruptive innovation, reinforcing my confidence that GOOG remains a compelling investment for future growth.
Options Market Statistics: Alibaba Shares Jump 13% as AI Drives Cloud Unit Acceleration $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ and other US chip stocks fell on Friday. Nvidia shares dropped more than 3% and shed about 2% for the week.

The Wall Street Journal reported Alibaba is
🐯 My Experience with Tiger Brokers – Post Interview Thoughts Beginning of the month , I had the opportunity to join an interview with the Tiger Brokers team. To my surprise, I also received a small gift – an exclusive Tiger Brokers blind box figurine 🐅. Thrilling to open, and now proudly sitting on my desk as my new trading buddy! During the session, I shared about my trading journey: • how I first stepped into the markets with stocks, • how I eventually explored options as a way to generate steady income, • and the lessons I learned along the way – especially the importance of discipline, risk management, and adapting strategies to different market conditions. The conversation wasn’t just about numbers or performance; it was about mindset. Trading can be a lonely journey sometimes, but pl
This week, the market gave us a tale of two tech titans—and two very different outcomes. 📉 Wednesday, August 27: Meituan (03690) dropped its Q2 earnings. Revenue rose 11.7% YoY, but net profit plunged 89%, crushed by soaring sales expenses and brutal competition in food delivery. The stock tanked 💥📉. 📈 Friday, August 29: Alibaba (BABA) released its Q1 FY2026 results and jumped 12.9% 🚀💰. Investors cheered its cloud growth, AI momentum, and strategic pivots. The surge was swift—and loud. But the real twist came from Meituan’s CEO Wang Xing, who said: “In a big competition, being the underdog is the most exciting position to be in. That’s why this is so thrilling.” 🧠 So… Do You Bet on the Underdog or Ride the Surge? Let’s break it down: 🐾 Why Bet on the Underdog? Potential for high
Buying into crypto at the levels and value they are trading in at the moment are very risky. If we have a correction in the markets, cryptocurrency would be the hardest hit, because they are also the most speculative. There is a lot of money to be made if you strike it right. I would consider only to invest what I would be comfortable with losing. It all looks a bit like the tulip bulb markets in Holland a couple of centuries ago. Very pretty and valuable until it wasn't....
