This looks far more like post-earnings digestion than the start of a structural bank rotation. For DBS Group, the sell-off is understandable. The Q4 miss was driven by net interest margin compression, not a deterioration in asset quality or franchise strength. With rates normalising, NIM pressure is a sector-wide reality rather than a DBS-specific flaw. Fee income growth of +13.5% shows the underlying business mix is holding up well. Context matters. After a ~60% rally and fresh highs, expectations were elevated. Any earnings disappointment was likely to trigger profit-taking, especially as investors recalibrate forward ROE assumptions in a lower-rate environment. Crucially, capital returns change the risk profile. A 38% jump in total dividends to S$3.06, with visibility on capital return

This is not a clean rotation moment, but rather a sequencing question. Gold reclaiming the $5,000/oz handle after a violent pullback is consistent with trend consolidation, not exhaustion. The structural drivers remain intact: central-bank accumulation, fiscal dominance risk, and portfolio hedging demand. From that perspective, JPMorgan’s view, as articulated by strategist Jason Hunter of JPMorgan, is internally consistent. Copper leading in Q2 also makes sense tactically. Copper is more sensitive to: inventory restocking, China demand stabilisation, infrastructure and grid spending tied to electrification and AI capex. That argues for selective rotation into copper-linked cyclicals, but not wholesale liquidation of gold. Historically, in late-cycle or policy-uncertain environments, gold a

This rebound does not yet qualify as a durable risk-on turn. It has many hallmarks of a positioning reset, not renewed conviction. The scale of the bounce in the S&P 500 looks impressive on the surface, but the underlying signals are less convincing. Elevated implied volatility, below-average participation, and the sharp move in Goldman’s short-bias basket all point to short covering and mechanical flows, rather than long-only re-engagement. When rallies are led by what investors were forced to buy back, rather than what they want to own, follow-through tends to be fragile. The AI angle matters here. The market is increasingly questioning winner-takes-most dynamics, especially in software, where pricing power, differentiation, and customer lock-in are far less assured than in AI infras

As we navigate the early months of 2026, the stock market continues to experience periods of volatility. Elevated valuations in certain areas, combined with ongoing geopolitical tensions, policy shifts including tariffs, and a rotation away from some high-flying tech names, have created choppy conditions. While the broader market shows resilience with earnings growth expectations remaining solid, downturns and pullbacks present opportunities for patient investors to add quality positions at more attractive prices. This environment favors a selective approach: focusing on sectors with strong fundamentals, defensive characteristics, or secular tailwinds that appear undervalued relative to their long-term potential. Below, we explore some of the most promising sectors amid the current turmoil

The cycle from the January 21, 2026 low in Apple (AAPL) is unfolding as a five‑wave Elliott Wave impulse. From that low, wave 1 advanced to $268.34, followed by a corrective pullback in wave 2 that terminated at $252.12. The stock then resumed its upward trajectory in wave 3. Within this third wave, wave ((i)) concluded at $261.90, while the subsequent pullback in wave ((ii)) ended at $255. Momentum strengthened thereafter, carrying the stock higher in wave ((iii)) toward $279.50. A modest dip in wave ((iv)) found support at $273.50, before the final leg, wave ((v)), reached $280.90. This marked the completion of wave 3 at a higher degree. Wave 4 unfolded as a zigzag correction. Declining from the wave 3 peak, wave ((a)) ended at $276.28. A brief rally in wave ((b)) followed, topping at $2

$Coca-Cola(KO)$ $Pepsi(PEP)$  $Monster Beverage(MNST)$  Coca-Cola ($KO) 🥤: First Revenue Miss in 5 Years Triggers Expectation Shock, Not Business Decay 📉 This move is about expectation shock, not a deterioration in the business. $KO just reported its first revenue miss in five years, printing $11.82B versus consensus near $12.03B. The market reacted immediately. Shares fell –2.1%, the sharpest drawdown since October and the second largest since April. At roughly –2%, this was not a marginal miss. It was the largest top-line shortfall since July 2014. In a stock priced for consistency, rarity alone is enough to force a reset. But the internals tel

$Keppel(BN4.SI)$  $SGX(S68.SI)$   The latest SG earnings season has delivered a tale of two blue chips, with Keppel (BN4) hitting a 12-year high on strong results, while SGX (S68) saw a share price pullback despite record revenue, prompting an analysis of how to navigate these mixed signals in the short and medium term BN4 reached a 12-year high, driven by diversified growth and AI-powered data center demand, raising the question of whether the stock has already priced in the "Piyush Gupta effect" or if overvaluation risks are mounting after the rally S68 posted record revenue from robust trading volumes and higher listing fees, but the share price dip presents a potential entry po

$Oracle(ORCL)$  certainly. As of Feb 10, analysts note that OpenAI's potential to raise an additional $100 billion serves as a critical catalyst for Oracle's stock, as it ensures the financing of the massive data centers Oracle is currently building. Further, Oracle's rebound is directly supported by OpenAI's funding progress, which alleviates fears regarding Oracle's $300 billion 5 yr contract with this startup, overall a win-win at first sight.

The US equity markets have endured a rollercoaster ride over the past 14 days, marked by (a) sharp technical corrections and (b) a historic rebound. Volatility culminated in a dramatic "V-shaped" recovery during the first week of February 2026. (see below) By the time first trading week of February 2026 ended: The Dow: Rose by +2.74% (+1,337.90 to 50,115.67) and it crossed the 50,000 mark for the first time. This psychological milestone was reached late Friday, as blue-chip giants surged to offset earlier weekly losses, signaling a rotation toward "Old Economy" stability. S&P 500: Rose by +0.23% (+15.66 to 6,932.30). Strong earnings from Tech & Energy helped bolster investor confidence in growth-oriented stocks, boosting the overall index sentiment. However, the index remained unde
