【Money Market Fund】 US$ MMF Net 7-day Yield: +3.63%* Looking ahead, the FOMC meeting in the coming week is widely expected to deliver another rate pause amid ongoing Middle East tensions, with no updated SEP released.

Singapore’s Tech Rally: From Narrative to Delivery
With four sessions remaining in April, the FTSE ST Technology Index has posted a month-to-date gain rarely seen across its near 20-year history. For the month, the Index is up 18% through 24 April, placing the move among its five strongest monthly performances on record. This has also lifted the iEdge Singapore Next 50 Liquidity Weighted Index, which has gained 9% over the same period. The global backdrop has been even more pronounced, with the PHLX Semiconductor Index (SOX) delivering a month-to-date advance well above typical historical ranges, reflecting the intensity of capital repricing across the global semiconductor stack. Global Technology Backdrop: From AI Spend to Physical Deployment Globally, technology and semiconductor sentiment continued its rally last week after
图像 AI requires fundamentally different infrastructure than general-purpose cloud infrastructure. Simply put, AI data centers use a higher number of powerful $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ GPUs that eat a lot of electricity, requiring meaningful grid upgrades. Additionally, these GPUs generate more heat than a conventional data center, demanding improved cooling systems. This means that, unfortunately, using existing general-purpose data centers for AI workloads is just not economically viable. This is why we are witnessing this extreme data center buildout boom! In a colocation model, a company such as Cipher Digital builds the data center, secures energy, and equips it with cooling, networking, and other equipment. Then they secure a customer who signs a long-te

Hello everyone! Today i want to share some trading ideas with you! 1 The Path forward: $S&P 500(.SPX)$ (1) I was doing some retrospective analysis over the weekend and realign my daily roadmap. (2) here is one from Scroll #209, posted on Jan. 31, 2026 to Subs when SPX made new ATH at 7000. (3) Expected a slump to 6464--actual 6316, then to 7150 early May. 2 W-4 continuing: (1) given the vertical nature of the melt-up W-3, the consolidation phase of W-4 would take much longer time, and most likely, with more complicated format. (2) the current retrace is TOO shallow for a W-4, preferrably at 7000. Mid-May top expected. No Position. 😍 Been eyeing Tiger merch but short on Tiger Coins?

🚀 Singapore's AI Infrastructure Gold Rush: $STE, $DBS, and $CLAR Leading the S$26B Charge 💰
The Pulse Singapore just handed us a blueprint for the next mega-trend: AI infrastructure domination. While everyone's chasing Nvidia in the US, ST Engineering ( $ST Engineering(S63.SI)$ ) quietly bagged S$4.8 billion in Q1 contracts, DBS ($DBS) became the APAC AI banking kingmaker with S$20 billion in data centre financing, and CapitaLand Ascendas REIT ( $CapitaLand Ltd.(CLLDF)$ ) went on a S$1.6 billion acquisition spree. Add a 10.1% YoY manufacturing surge that crushed forecasts, and you're looking at a structural shift—not a cyclical trade. The STI is only up 0.1% today, which means the street is sleeping on this. That won't last. $STE $DBS 📊 Key News: The Numbers That Matter Manufacturing Output:
The Brutal Evolution: Why Marvell Didn’t Just Dump POET—It Upgraded
$POET Technologies Inc(POET)$ $Marvell Technology(MRVL)$ The market loves a scandal. It’s easy to digest. When the news broke that Marvell Technology severed ties with POET Technologies, the narrative was served on a silver platter: "CFO’s big mouth violates NDA; partnership terminated." It’s a neat story. It’s also a convenient smokescreen. If you understand how Big Tech operates, you know that billion-dollar roadmaps don’t get scrapped because of a slip of the tongue. You don't burn a bridge you're still walking on. You only burn it when you’ve already finished building the tunnel. The "Smoking Gun" Timeline To see the truth, you have to ignore the words
The U.S. Stock Market Just Confirmed a New Bull Cycle
The Week of April 20, 2026 will be remembered as a structural inflection point. After 8 consecutive weeks in a Sell and Observe phase, the U.S. Market Average Index (USMAI) — the weighted composite of the $Dow Jones(.DJI)$$NASDAQ(.IXIC)$$iShares Russell 2000 ETF(IWM)$ and $S&P 500(.SPX)$ — formally crossed into confirmed Bullish zone territory, closing the week at 7,296.9, up +1.06%. The zone level crossing from Bearish −41% to Bullish +19% is not a minor data point. It represents the structural event that 8 weeks of analysis had been anticipating — the completion of a corrective base and the activation of a new Bu
Earnings season is in full swing, 5 stocks I'm Watching This Week

Spotify’s User Growth & Operating Leverage Shares of $Spotify Technology S.A.(SPOT)$ are down 33% from their high last year, and most of that drop is because the stock’s valuation got a little stretched.

⚡ Oil's Geopolitical Bid vs. Gold's Retreat — How to Play the Energy Rotation Right Now
$W&T Offshore(WTI)$$Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund(XLE)$$SPDR Gold ETF(GLD)$$Phillips 66(PSX)$$DALATA HOTEL GP(DAL.UK)$ The Pulse The macro narrative is shifting fast: crude oil is getting a hard geopolitical floor from Middle East supply fears while gold quietly surrenders ground as safe-haven rotation unwinds. With US–Iran tensions keeping the Strait of Hormuz risk premium alive, $WTI is running on headline fuel — not clean trend momentum — and that creates a high-conviction dip-buying window for disciplined traders. Meanwhile, $GLD holders are absor
