I would choose $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ for the next year. While SpaceX’s AI growth is impressive, Tesla offers multiple growth drivers through FSD, Robotaxi, Optimus humanoid robots and energy storage, beyond its traditional automotive business. The potential $SpaceX(SPCX)$ merger is worth watching, but without confirmed terms, I would not invest based on speculation alone. SpaceX’s rapid expansion also comes with substantial capital expenditure, making cash flow and execution important factors. As a long-term Tesla investor, I remain bullish on its potential but will stay disciplined about valuation. For me, the real
I would choose A, Perfect Entry. Buying a good company at a lower price gives me a better cost basis and more room for long-term returns. Of course, nobody can consistently predict the absolute bottom, so I prefer dollar-cost averaging and adding on pullbacks rather than trying to time the market perfectly. My worst attempt at timing the market was buying too early during a dip, only to watch the stock fall further. It taught me that even when the long-term thesis is right, the entry price still matters, and patience is essential. These days, I focus more on fundamentals, technical support levels and risk management. I would rather build a position gradually and stay disciplined than chase the perfect entry. For me, consistency beats perfection in the long run.
Macro Strategy: Reversal or Dead Cat Bounce? Why Selling Puts Still Makes Sense
Weekly Report: Key Views Hello everyone, and welcome to another edition of our Macro Strategy Weekly. Each issue features market strategy insights from selected contributors with relevant professional expertise. We also track how these views perform each week. Here is a preview of this week’s key ideas: 1. Nvidia Straddle Closed for Profit; Lock In Option Gains Promptly: The previously discussed Nvidia straddle has been closed at a profit. Investors still holding the position should consider taking profits promptly. Profitable calls bought at lower levels should also be monetized into the rebound before lower implied volatility, time decay and weaker buying erode returns. 2. US Equity Selloff May Be Near Its End, Creating Conditions for a Rebound: Leveraged ETFs recorded a sharp
Goldman Upgraded CoreWeave. Nebius Got the Bounce. Why the Neocloud Split Is About Balance Sheets, Not Demand Written Tuesday 20 Oct, SGT, using Monday's US closes. What happened on Monday Goldman Sachs analyst Gabriela Borges upgraded CoreWeave to Buy from Neutral. Usually that's enough to move a stock that's down 25% in a week. It wasn't. - CoreWeave: up about 2.2% intraday to $62.74, then reversed to close down 0.44% at $61.12 - Nebius: closed up 2.88% at $170.24, after rising as much as 4.64% intraday on a reiterated Truist Buy rating with a $355 target That's a gap of about 3.3 percentage points in one session between two companies that, a week earlier, traded as the same stock. Last week CoreWeave fell 25.21% and Nebius fell 25.15%, almost exactly the same. So the split started on Mo
The Number That Wasn't the Story: SpaceX's First Profit and the Merger That May Change Everything
The indices: Dow up, Nasdaq flat, a split that maps onto earnings week The three indices diverged on Tuesday: the $Dow Jones(.DJI)$ rose 1.02 per cent to 52,495.88; the $S&P 500(.SPX)$ rose 0.28 per cent to 7,712.57; the $NASDAQ(.IXIC)$ was nearly unchanged, closing down 0.02 per cent at 26,424.82. The 10-year Treasury yield settled at 5.12 per cent. The Dow–Nasdaq split tracks the shape of this week's reporting calendar: technology names started spreading risk before the numbers are in, some moving forward, some pulling back. Memory: the CXMT overhang still has not cleared
$CIFR 20261023 8.0 PUT$ My view is cautious despite the potentially attractive AI-data-centre conversion story for Cipher Mining Inc. (CIFR) watchlist . The stock is no longer simply a Bitcoin miner: the investment case depends on converting its Texas power sites into HPC/AI hosting capacity. That may create a more contracted, less Bitcoin-sensitive revenue stream—but the current financials show this transition is capital-intensive and not yet self-funding. What is working Cipher reported that its first HPC data-centre capacity at Black Pearl was delivered two months early and had begun generating rent; it also said work at Barber Lake and Stingray was progressing. That is the central proof point for the AI-hosting thesis.
$SpaceX(SPCX)$ SpaceX's First Profit as a Public Company, and Musk's "Trillion-Dollar Revenue" Claim: I Fact-Checked the Viral Video and Ran It Through My Sell-Put Gates Written Wednesday 21 Oct, SGT, after Tuesday's report. A video about SpaceX's results is everywhere right now. Some of it is accurate, some isn't, and the most important numbers aren't in it at all. Here's what the company actually reported. The quarter in numbers - Revenue: $14.6 billion, up 161% year over year, against about $12.9 billion expected - Operating profit: $2.79 billion, after a $143 million operating loss in Q2 - Net income: $4.4 billion, or 35 cents a share against a 12-cent estimate. A year earlier it lost $1.1 billion. - Adjusted EBITDA: $8.8 billion One importan
$Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$ Facebook or Meta Platforms have been in the news lately with a series of successful artificial-intelligence launches which has given Meta Platforms fresh momentum heading into its third-quarter earnings report on Wednesday — and a reason to spend more. After being written off as an AI laggard for much of the past year, Meta shocked investors with the breakout success of its Muse agent and the recent launch of its Muse Wonder models. Shares of Meta have risen 14% since the launch of Muse in early September. The company is “back on offense with AI,” Bank of America analyst Justin Post wrote in a note last week, adding that further details about Muse adoption will be a main area of f
Meta vs Tesla: Two AI Giants, Two Very Different Paths to Growth
The market is approaching another important earnings test, and two of the biggest names in the AI investment story are in the spotlight. On Tuesday, the S&P 500 rose 0.28% to 7,712.57, while QQQ slipped 0.10% to $717.63. Netflix then fell more than 5% after hours following disappointing Q4 revenue guidance, reminding investors that even established technology companies can face pressure when expectations are high. Now attention turns to Meta and Tesla, both reporting after the market close. These companies represent two very different approaches to AI. Meta is using AI to strengthen an advertising business that already generates substantial revenue. Tesla is pursuing a broader transformation that could extend from electric vehicles into autonomous driving, robotaxis and robotics. Both
Why Singapore's Macro Shock Is Your Dividend Golden Ticket
🌟🌟🌟 Singapore's Q3 2026 GDP grew by a surprising 5.4% year on year, easily beating the 5% that economists predicted. But before you go ordering an extra plate of satay to celebrate, let's look at the speedometer: we have officially slowed down from the roaring 6.2% growth we enjoyed in Q2. Think of our economy like a top of the line sports car. We are still zooming down the ECP but we have shifted down a gear because the initial boost from the AI infrastructure wave is starting to normalise. The MAS pulled off a classic plot twist. 17 out of 20 institutional economists believed that MAS would tighten the monetary policy on Wednesday 14 October by steepening the SGD NEER slope. Instead MAS kept the monetary policy unchanged, hitting the pause button after 2 rou
Investing Series 101: Spotlight on Next 5 Undervalued Hong Kong SDRs

Nvidia GTC Berlin: The Next AI Rally Needs More Than a Keynote 🚀
$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ is back in the spotlight, but this time the question is bigger than whether Jensen Huang can deliver another exciting presentation. Nvidia fell 0.29% on Tuesday to $216.47 as investors looked ahead to GTC Berlin, running from October 20 to 22. Huang’s keynote is expected to cover accelerated computing, AI infrastructure, open-source models, AI agents and physical AI. These are important areas for the next stage of AI development. However, after a powerful run in AI-related stocks, investors are increasingly asking a different question: How much of the future growth is already reflected in today’s share prices? I think that is the real issue facing Nvidia. 💡 1. The AI Story Is Expanding Beyond Chatbots The first phase of the AI

Full story: https://grafa.com/en/news/australia/atlas-arteria-proportional-toll-revenue-falls-0-4 Proportional toll revenue dropped 0.4% in Q3 2026, excluding foreign exchange movements. Reported toll revenue fell 8.9% due to adverse foreign exchange rate fluctuations. Proposed French tax law changes could add €210 million in costs for APRR. Atlas Arteria (ASX:ALX) reported a 0.4% drop in proportional toll revenue excluding foreign exchange movements for Q3 2026. The revenue change compares to the prior corresponding period, while reported proportional toll revenue declined 8.9% due to foreign exchange movements. Higher fuel prices in France negatively impacted light vehicle traffic, contrasting with positive traffic growth across US and German assets. The French government proposed a draf
Northern Star reports higher costs and lower output
Full story: https://grafa.com/en/news/australia/northern-star-reports-higher-costs-and-lower-output Northern Star Resources reported a lower gold output of nearly 364,000 ounces alongside a 20% cost increase to $3,217 per ounce for the September quarter. The operational update coincides with an uninvited takeover approach from Gold Fields, which previously valued the Australian miner at nearly $39 billion. Northern Star stated that the cost increases stemmed from integrating its new $1.8 billion mill at the Kalgoorlie Consolidated Gold Mines operations. Northern Star Resources (ASX:NST) posted a quarterly gold production drop of roughly 19% to nearly 364,000 ounces while its all-in sustaining costs rose 20% to $3,217 per ounce. The latest quarterly figures followed an uninvited takeover pr
My vote: D, down 5%-10%. Netflix remains a strong business, but earnings reactions are often about expectations rather than whether the company is doing well. With the market already pricing in continued subscriber, advertising and margin growth, weaker-than-expected guidance could outweigh a solid quarter. If I owned $Netflix(NFLX)$, I would hold rather than buy more ahead of earnings. I would want to see whether advertising growth, operating margins and future revenue guidance justify the valuation before adding. Netflix can still deliver strong long-term growth, but at elevated expectations, even a small disappointment can produce a surprisingly large reaction. My prediction: good business, demanding expectations, -5% to -10% af
I think the AI, satellite and automotive ecosystem could create significant long-term synergies, but I would choose option ③: the exchange ratio and shareholder dilution matter most. $SpaceX(SPCX)$ AI revenue growth is impressive, yet its enormous capital expenditure raises questions about how sustainable that growth will be. As a Tesla investor, I see potential in combining FSD, Robotaxi, Optimus, energy storage, Starlink and AI computing. However, strategic synergies do not automatically translate into shareholder value. The valuation of both companies and the terms of any merger would determine whether Tesla shareholders truly benefit. I would remain optimistic but cautious until the details become clearer. For me, the key is wh

$SPX Relief Rally Fading? Next Move Could Be Lower
The latest setups point to downside risk for equities, with $S&P 500(.SPX)$ potentially running out of room to rally while oil continues to push higher. Here’s what I’m watching. 👇 📉 $SPX — Relief Rally May Be Over Five waves down. Three waves up. That’s a bearish structure, suggesting the relief rally could be nearing its end. 🎯 Key levels to watch: 7,616: Equal lows and the first downside target September low: The next potential target if support gives way Even if we see more upside first, daily resistance could cap the move.
