The dip for $Microsoft(MSFT)$ seems more like a valuation rest, it may be a good to take a small initial position to be scaled in after more clarity at the next earnings. $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ is not likely to deliver as Elon Musk has consistently hyped the market repeatedly.

As a casual investor for Tesla, it always feels good to get a pep talk from our charismatic spokesman. Personally I don't think neither the robotaxi nor the humanoid robot is really going to start hit the streets big time this year or next year. 

As a REIT investor entering since 2024 for the recovery play,  the gradual rate cut is slowly working it's magic and the REIT bears have slowly retreated back to their caves or have changed camp. It's no doubt that the reversal has started and we are at the cusps of the next reitup cycle. 

seem more like a falling wedge and may have more downward pressure

I've voted for Magsafe wallet and phone stand as it is a really practical item that will ease my aching arms when I monitor the market during mealtimes and office hours.

My reading plan: 1. Making your millions in REITs: the savy investor's guide for crazy times by Gabriel Yap. - This is to further my knowledge of how to assess and invest in REITs. 2. Huat Ah! : building wealth in Singapore with unit trusts by Derek Gue - reading to know the basics of units trusts and how to invest in them.

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ 2025 was a year to recover from the folly of 2024. I had FOMO in the REIT rally after the yen trade crash, went in later and tried to day trade REIT. These stupid moves earned me a -2+% return for 2024. 2025 was the year I made a fresh start but investing in financial literacy and proper trading knowledge. Unfazed with the liberation day crash and TACO events, I'd stick to my buying and accumulation rules of only buying at or below certain levels and not blindly DCAing into certain counters. Trading were done by sticking to a trading plan with defined entry, risk/reward and exit. Things then turned around and my 2025 portfolio turned 2024's negative to +8%>

B. A shakeout to scare weak hands

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ I regretted sitting on the fence for too long when the market crashed during the liberation day period. I thought the market could go down further and the recovery was a dead cat bounce. By the time I realised the recovery is for real, the best deals had evaporated.

2026 will be a year where I continue the discipline of ignoring the market noise and still to be long term plan. @Star in the Sky what say you?

Tesla's price has always been volatile. When it rocketed to a peak after a trough, many will cash out and say goodbye for now. It will then make a new high. I had got off the train earlier, reboarded and got off. We can have an endless but fulfilling roller coaster ride as long as Elon is around to pep talk to us.

I believe DBS can still deliver Stella performance in 2026 through the non interest income businesses like wealth management. However, investors should temper their expectations as this is not a growth stock like NVDA. I do agree with JPM's picks as I do personally own many of these (4 out of 7) and these companies are fundamentally strong and growing.

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ Will be traveling overseas for a vacation. But as usual, the market is still being monitored for possible Christmas presents.
