To The Moon

Here are the key considerations for the upcoming critical earnings week for the “Mag 7” (Microsoft, Meta, Tesla, Apple) and how the results might impact their recent underperformance: 1. Can strong earnings from Apple and Microsoft reverse recent underperformance? Strong results from Apple and Microsoft could indeed help to stabilise sentiment and potentially reverse some of the recent underperformance. Analysts expect Apple to deliver solid earnings driven by robust iPhone demand, which could buoy confidence if it beats expectations and offers positive guidance given concerns about margins. For Microsoft, a beat supported by continued cloud and AI growth would demonstrate resilience despite broader valuation pressure among software stocks; both outcomes may ease investor risk aversion and

I have always told myself that one day, I would invest in Singapore stocks. It sounds ironic now, considering that today, my portfolio still contains exactly zero of them. When I first started investing, I was young, curious, and armed with nothing more than YouTube videos, blog posts, and late-night Google searches. Like many beginners, I was looking for certainty in a world that had none. Somewhere online, I read that US stocks had historically outperformed Singapore stocks. Someone wrote that America was bigger, innovative and ambitious. Another said that the US market was where “real growth” happened. So I believed it. And just like that, I became a US-focused investor. I bought ETFs, along with a few individual stocks. I read about Apple, Tesla, Microsoft, Amazon. I admired how these

Microsoft Just Saw a 'Death Cross' Ahead of Earnings. What That Means $Microsoft(MSFT)$   has been one of the weaker "Magnificent Seven" stocks over the past year, rising just some 5% over 12 months and trailing the $S&P 500(.SPX)$  , $Alphabet(GOOGL)$  , $NVIDIA(NVDA)$   and $Apple(AAPL)$   during that period. Let's see what its chart and fundamentals say heading into next week's f

Intel Plunges 16%. Why Nvidia, AMD and Micron Didn't Care? After  $Intel(INTC)$  reported Q4 earnings and its shares plunged 16%, the semiconductor sector did not come under broad pressure. Instead, $NVIDIA(NVDA)$   , $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$  , and $Micron Technology(MU)$   moved higher. The market response suggests investors saw Intel's results as a company-specific issue rather than a sign of weakening industry demand, while reinforcing the divergence in

Can strong earnings from Apple and Microsoft reverse their underperformance? Strong results from Apple and Microsoft could mark a turning point if they deliver clear beats on both earnings per share and revenues relative to forecasts. The consensus estimates for Apple (about USD 2.65 EPS on USD 137.5 B revenue) and Microsoft (about USD 3.88–USD 3.93 EPS on ~USD 80.2 B) reflect modest year-over-year growth and positive revision trends, which suggests analysts expect resilience in core businesses, including iPhone demand and cloud growth. If both companies beat expectations and give confident forward guidance, this may restore some investor confidence and contribute to relative performance improvement versus the broader market.  Does Meta need upside surprises to regain investor confide

Earnings Calendar (26Jan2026) I am monitoring the earnings results from Microsoft, Apple, Meta, Tesla, UPS, GM, Chevron and ExxonMobil. Let us explore the recent performance of ExxonMobil. Stock Performance and Analyst Recommendations Technical analysis for ExxonMobil indicates a “Strong Buy” recommendation, suggesting favourable market signals and trends. In addition to technical factors, analyst sentiment supports a positive outlook for the stock, with a consensus rating of “Buy.” The current price target stands at $132.48. However, this target implies a potential downside of approximately 1.84%, reflecting a drop from the current trading price. ExxonMobil Earnings Highlights Revenue Growth ExxonMobil has demonstrated strong revenue growth over the past decade. The company’s revenue incr

Market Outlook of S&P500 (26Jan2026) Technical Analysis Overview MACD Indicator The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator has completed a top crossover, which implies a bearish outlook. Moving Averages The price action, as depicted by the candlesticks, is currently situated above both the 50-day and 200-day moving average (MA) lines.

NVDA Options Turn Defensive While IREN Bets Accelerate After 11% Surge Against the backdrop of a sharp selloff in Intel shares following its earnings release, price action within the compute and AI supply chain showed clear divergence. $NVIDIA(NVDA)$  , $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$  , $Micron Technology(MU)$   and $IREN Ltd(IREN)$   all posted gains on the day, with IREN surging more than 11%, suggesting institutions did not simply extrapolate Intel's earnings disappointm

🚀 AI rocket fuel 🚀 Add to crowded AI plays as rare Earth minerls powers the Mag 7 boom with  rocket fuel. The top five rare earth elements most critical to AI progression are neodymium, dysprosium, terbium, yttrium, and europium, due to their roles in high-performance magnets, semiconductors, and data center hardware. Shortages against current or forecasted demand—driven by AI’s explosive growth in GPUs, cooling systems, and servers—would severely hamper scaling. China dominates rare earth mining, producing over 60% globally, but the top five ex-China or major producers controlling significant shares of neodymium, dysprosium, terbium, yttrium, and europium supply are 1. MP Materials (USA) 2. Lynas Rare Earths (AUS) 3. Energy Fuels, (USA) 4. Iluka Resources, (AUS) and 5. Arafura Resour

$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ 1. Long-Term Investment Strategy & Analysis (with Analyst Insight) From a medium- to long-term perspective, TSLA remains firmly classified within a Bearish trend zone, where the optimal investment stance continues to be Sell and Observe. This zone typically consists of two internal dynamics: a strong downward trend phase and a rebound trend phase marked by limited, unstable recoveries. Historically, this environment offers low expected returns and elevated downside risk for long-only investors. The current Sell and Observe position has been maintained for 19 days since entry into the Bearish zone. During this period, downside exposure has been effectively mitigated, resulting in a cumulative avoided loss of -7.5%, undersco

1. $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ The diagonal trendline was breached, confirming the MACD crossover posted last week. After bouncing from short-term oversold conditions on Wednesday, the price filled the 'bullish' gap and is now at the 20DMA with two indecisive candles. $685 will be decisive next week. 2. $Broadcom(AVGO)$ The series of lower highs and higher lows had a bearish resolution. However, see that dragonfly at the very edge of the volume shelf. Don't rule out a bounce. $VanEck Semiconductor ETF(SMH)$ $NASDAQ 100(NDX)$ For SG users only, Welcome to open a CBA today and enjoy access to a trading limit of up to SG

$iShares Silver Trust(SLV)$   On Friday, January 23, 2026, silver futures on COMEX finally pushed into triple-digit territory for the first time in history, closing around $102–103 per ounce (depending on the exact feed and settlement). While the headlines focused on that psychological $100 barrier being smashed—with spot prices briefly touching or exceeding it amid heavy speculative buying—the real development people are starting to notice is the growing evidence of strain between paper silver (futures/ETFs/digital claims) and physical silver (actual bars/coins in hand). We're now in the weekend freeze (markets closed), giving the system roughly 52 hours of quiet before Sunday evening electronic trading resumes.
