So I'm really not concerned if silver sells of. I don't own silver directly. I don't trade it as a commodity either. I just own shares in $SILVER MINES LTD(SVL.AU)$  . They are a silver mining company based in Australia predominantly with the rights to arguably the largest silver mine deposits in Australia. They have proven out their reserves. But only expect to secure government approval to start mining as early as mid 2026.  In an earlier article I wrote incorrectly that the licensing was in place, but it's not yet. Realistically I don't think they will start mining til 2027/2028. But they also have mining businesses in California and a few other spots that mite start production sooner. This does not concern me though, it wasn't

$Apple(AAPL)$   ​Apple’s 7-Day Bleed: The ‘Trap’ Every Trader Needs to See Before Earnings ​Is the "iPhone Supercycle" already over, or is this the ultimate bear trap? ​Apple ($AAPL) has just clocked its seventh consecutive session of losses, shedding over 4% in a single week. For a mega-cap defensive stock, this kind of consistent selling pressure is rare. ​The timing is suspicious. We are weeks away from the FY2026 Q1 earnings print—expected to be the first full quarter showcasing the impact of the iPhone 17 lineup and the new iPhone Air. Analysts are projecting record highs in revenue and shipment volumes, yet the price action suggests Smart Money is heading for the exit. ​Is this a classic "Buy the Dip" setup, or is the market pricin

The current silver weakness should be viewed primarily through the lens of flow mechanics, not a deterioration in fundamentals. Is the sell-off mechanical or structural? It is largely mechanical. The Bloomberg Commodity Index annual rebalancing forces passive funds to reduce silver exposure after its strong prior-year performance. The estimated USD 7.7 billion of selling flagged by TD Securities represents mandated portfolio adjustment, not discretionary bearish positioning. Such flows are price-insensitive and time-bound, typically concentrated within the rebalance window. There is little evidence of a structural demand breakdown. Industrial demand tied to electrification, solar, and AI-related power infrastructure remains intact, while mine supply growth is constrained. Role of inventori

The pullback across storage names appears to be predominantly profit-taking, not a deterioration in the AI memory thesis. Profit-taking or sentiment shift? This move has the hallmarks of positioning and valuation reset, rather than a change in fundamentals. After a sharp rally, storage stocks had become crowded trades, vulnerable to short-term de-risking once momentum slowed. The absence of negative guidance, order cancellations, or pricing deterioration argues against a true sentiment reversal. The reaffirmation from BofA Securities on SanDisk, despite the drawdown, reinforces this view. Analysts are clearly distinguishing between near-term volatility and structural AI-driven demand. AI memory demand remains intact The core drivers have not changed: AI workloads are increasingly memory-in

If Hong Kong’s stock market were a mosaic rather than a monolith, today would be the moment when you stop inspecting individual tiles and step back a few paces. Some pieces gleam with speculative polish, others look worn but dependable, and a few are still being pressed into place by capital that knows something is changing but hasn’t yet decided how fast it wants to move. Not one market — many ideas converging into something coherent This is not a rerun of an old tech rally, nor a simple relief bounce after a soft prior year. What I see instead is a market quietly reorganising itself around three patterns: a reshaping of the investible universe through high-technology IPOs, the continued gravitational pull of established technology and new-energy leaders, and a rotation into robotics and

🌟🌟🌟The standout trade of the week has to go to $Micron Technology(MU)$ which demonstrated a "Fast & Furious" rally fueled by a structural AI narrative , only to be followed by significant volatility. Micron began the week around USD 294 and surged to an all time high of USD 346.30 on January 7, a  jump of over 17% in just 2 days of trading.  This was driven by Nvidia's CES 2026 announcement and analyst upgrades based on projected price hikes of 60-70% for HBM chips, with Piper Sandler setting price targets as high as USD400. However Micron experienced a sharp reversal and fell to USD 327.02 by market close on January 8.  This is a good example of the high risk, high reward nature of chasing growth at these levels.

As we step into 2026, the investment landscape continues to evolve amid economic shifts, technological advancements, and global uncertainties. Momentum trading, a strategy that capitalizes on the continuation of existing market trends, remains a popular approach for investors seeking to ride waves of upward price movements.  This style involves selecting assets that have shown strong recent performance, betting that their positive trajectory will persist. With AI-driven growth, easing monetary policies, and potential earnings expansions on the horizon, momentum strategies could shine brightly this year. In this article, we'll explore some of the top exchange-traded funds (ETFs) well-suited for momentum trading in 2026. These funds target stocks exhibiting high momentum characteristics

$AXT Inc(AXTI)$   We’re seeing third-order effects ripple through the market right now — with $Lumentum(LITE)$  , $Applied Optoelectronics(AAOI)$  , and the broader photonics names getting hammered 10%+. Part of this is the sector-wide selloff triggered by $SanDisk Corp.(SNDK)$  Sandisk’s -10% move and weakness across semis. But my angle is that the real story is upstream: the Japanese supply chain is likely running out of InP inventory/capacity because of Japan’s new export controls — and InP is critical for the Western optical buildout at scale. I wouldn’t lump COHR in with the o

🏠 Trump’s $200B Housing "Bazooka" — Real Relief or Just a Sentiment Pump? Trump just dropped a bombshell on the housing market: a directive to deploy $200 billion to buy Mortgage-Backed Securities (MBS). The goal? Smash mortgage rates lower, cut monthly payments, and solve the "affordability crisis" overnight. Markets didn't wait for the details. Homebuilders, mortgage lenders, and real estate services ripped higher instantly. But before you go all-in on the housing recovery trade, let’s separate the political signal from the financial reality. Is this the golden ticket for stocks like Rocket Companies ($RKT), or a short-term sugar rush? 1️⃣ The "Trump Put" for Real Estate? The policy intent is clear and aggressive. By buying $200B in MBS, the administration wants to artificially compress

This is not a novelty. This is the roadmap of the derivatives market. Every major dislocation in modern markets, the 2018 vol spike, the 2020 crash, the 2022 bear legs, and the AI driven squeezes of 2023 and 2024, accelerated around options expi

Whoa, what a rollercoaster in the storage sector! 😲 After skyrocketing on AI hype from Nvidia's CES bombshells, the party hit a speed bump on Thursday. SanDisk ( $SanDisk Corp.(SNDK)$ ) cratered almost 10%, Western Digital (WDC) shed over 6%, while Micron ( $Micron Technology(MU)$ ) and Seagate ( $Seagate Technology PLC(STX)$ ) each dipped more than 3%. But hold up—Bank of America Securities just doubled down with a Buy rating on SanDisk, slapping a juicy $390 price target on it. They're calling out the massive disconnect between this short-term dip and the explosive long-term AI storage boom. 💥🔥 Let's break it down: these stocks have been on an absolute tear lately

Silver's already dipped 3% amid this chaos, but is this just a mechanical glitch or a deeper structural quake? And more importantly, could this forced dump carve out a killer buy-the-dip moment? Let's dive deep into the frenzy with fresh insights, charts, and breakdowns. 🚀 First off, why the selloff storm? 🌪️ BCOM's annual tweak—running from January 9 to 15—aims to reset weights after silver's insane 150% rally in 2025. Its current slice of the index? Around 9%, but the target for 2026

Defense Sector Brief Review: Aircraft Engines and Avionics Systems Lead the Charge The 50% single-year increase in U.S. military spending recently claimed by U.S. President Donald Trump is likely to face significant resistance, since exceeding the defense budget cap requires 60 Senate votes, but Republicans hold only 53 seats. The budget reconciliation process only needs 51 votes but still faces fiscal gap issues. Without appropriate budget sources or balanced spending, it may not meet budget reconciliation criteria. Still, objective factors support potential growth in military industries. Delays in the U.S. sixth-generation fighter project, aging naval vessels and aircraft carriers, and stagnant tonnage growth all point to a genuine need for military industrial upgrades. Key Sectors to Wa

$Apple(AAPL)$ well, buy the dip or investment trap? Let me think. To buy a dip, it must be a dip. And to understand if it's a dip, I think you need to do ALOT of DD to find out. So let's go there with apple, from a personal users perspective. Buckle up tiger friends cause it's story time. So in 1988, I started my journey towards a university degree in business. One of the first papers I did was called computer systems. three quarters of the course was learning on an IBM (no compatibles then, just IBM). The last quarter was learning apples.  After I completed the course, it was like black and white. Dos, Edlin and Joe spreadsheet and the green screen absolutely sucked. Apple on the other hand, grey and white screen, an operating syst

🚨 Silver Flash Crash or "Sale of the Year"? The Truth Behind the $7.7B Dump Ticker: Silver Main(2603) iShares Silver Trust(SLV) Gold Main(2602) Costco(COST) Silver just took a 3% hit, and the charts look ugly. But before you panic-sell or aggressively short this move, you need to look under the hood. What we are witnessing right now isn't a fundamental collapse—it is a massive, mechanical liquidity event. TD Securities estimates that $7.7 billion worth of silver is hitting the market between Jan 9 and Jan 15. That is roughly 13% of total open interest on COMEX. For the retail trader, this looks like a crash. For the institutional shark, this looks like a transfer of wealth.
