Below, I’m going to give an idea of where companies sit from a valuation, balance sheet, and growth perspective. These metrics aren’t all-encompassing and may miss some key information, but this is a snapshot to help you/me figure out where there are opportunities and what stocks may be worth trimming.If there is a market downturn, I want to own companies that can survive and ultimately thrive on the other side.Tomorrow, I’ll be back with Part 2.On Sunday, I’ll recap with some stats about the portfolio overall.1. $Spotify Technology S.A.(SPOT)$ Spotify continues to perform extremely well operationally. The problem is, the valuation keeps getting higher and higher.When I first bought Spotify, the stock was unloved because it wasn’t a proven cash fl

What started as a quiet Friday turned into one of the ugliest trading days we’ve seen in months.U.S. stocks went into freefall on Friday after President Trump suddenly reignited the trade war with China, wiping out not just the week’s gains, but the entire month’s progress in a matter of hours. The S&P 500 $S&P 500(.SPX)$ crashed 2.7%, the Nasdaq $NASDAQ(.IXIC)$ got hammered for 3.6%, and the Dow $Dow Jones(.DJI)$ shed 879 points, marking the worst session since April for the major indices.The sell-off kicked off with a presidential social media post threatening a “massive increase” in tariffs on Chinese goods. If that wasn’t enough to spook investors, a
$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ : Such Bearish Engulfing Candles are followed by continuation; don't expect support at the 20DMA. A technical bounce might occur on Tuesday, but the weekly Shooting Star is a serious signal. Furthermore, a healthy pullback rarely lasts just one day, and the current volume shelf, which begins at $175, needs more consolidation.Stock chart for NVDA displays daily candlestick view with yellow 10MA line, orange 20MA line, green 50MA line, red arrows marking bearish engulfing candles, green shaded areas indicating volume shelves, price levels from 170 to 220, and weekly inset chart showing shooting star pattern with green 20MA, red down arrows at key points like 196.62 and 175, bottom panel with volume bars.For whom haven't open CBA can k
$Apple(AAPL)$ : The anticipated pullback to consolidate recent price gains has materialized. The correction sent the price down to the lower volume shelf, causing it to lose the 20DMA. A visit to the 50DMA is likely next week, but this entire sequence is considered a healthy reset within the context of the long-term bullish setup for Apple.Stock chart for AAPL on a daily timeframe with candlestick price bars in green and red.

13 days ago, I correctly said $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ would crash in October with 97% chance.This week, I believe the LOW of the year would be put in and 1 year from now we'd be up 15%-20% on SPY so close to 750.The GREEN line on this chart is 50SMA its at $650-$651 area. The SPY doesn't like to stay below this level for a long time. We might get a RETEST in the $640-$645 area, but the biggest area where buyers will step into the market is at $620-$630. So this area would be where we'd all load up.100% I'd be buying the dip next week.ImageFor whom haven't open CBA can know more from below:🏦 Open a CBA today and enjoy privileges of up to SGD 20,000 in trading limit with 0 commission.

I’ve been calling out for weeks that once $NASDAQ 100(NDX)$ breaks its 2/4 trendline, the higher-degree correction would be confirmed — ending the 5-wave advance that’s been running since April.That moment has arrived. NDX has officially crossed its 2/4 trendline, confirming the structural shift lower.📉 Short-term targets: Expect further downside to 24,000–23,860, where the Weekly FVG aligns with a multi-year trendline confluence.Beyond that, the September equal lows at 23,000 remain in focus — with deeper potential to the Monthly FVG near 22,400. $E-mini Nasdaq 100 - main 2512(NQmain)$$Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$$S&P 500(.SPX
Stay Cautious: Watch More, Trade Less Until Market Mania Fades
Over the National Day holiday week, markets shifted again: silver, the core sentiment gauge, led gold to fresh highs, and Bitcoin reclaimed the top spot in crypto with a new all-time high. The market is effectively immune to anything that looks negative, so fighting the prevailing mania is inadvisable until it clearly fades. That said, once leading indicators flash a definitive reversal, it could still mark a major inflection worth close attention.Among assets, silver remains the representative bellwether tracked over the past month. Silver futures set a new high this week, but with two trading days left, the chart has printed a high-level doji. While not a definitive top, it cannot be dismissed outright. Silver making highs has often coincided with rapid risk-off turns across risk assets,

$BABA-W(09988)$ 's rebound is built on solid strength! From cloud and chips to the Tongyi model, it remains a domestic leader. Its "ALL IN AI" strategy is paying off, and its integrated ecosystem of "computing power + AI model + commercial application" is truly unmatched in China.
$Amazon.com(AMZN)$ is on a solid run, showing breakout signs. With cloud reviving and AI applications rolling out, the dual engines are firing. Hold tight for the earnings bloom!
$Intel(INTC)$ is on the counterattack! Its new advanced chip process takes aim at competitors. With AI booming and governments pushing for local manufacturing, this tech breakthrough is perfectly timed. More support is surely coming. This turnaround story is getting interesting!
$VanEck Semiconductor ETF(SMH)$ performed nicely this round, boosted by the chip sector’s rebound and strong AI demand. Locked in a modest gain! The semiconductor outlook remains solid, and I’m holding steady for the long term — patience still pays off in this wave.
