$HOOD CUSTOM 260123/260123/260116 PUT 96.0/PUT 108.0/PUT 110.0$ Rolling from last week with lower strike, and I also buy put to lower margin requirement
$Alphabet(GOOGL)$ Buying GOOGL fractional shares from premium earned earlier. You may wondering why I am so obsessed of lower margin requirement. It's important because it helps to survive any corrections
I think storage pricing momentum is expected to carry the stock through the first half of 2026, but significant concerns regarding demand destruction may emerged for the latter half of the year. Further the present surge is driven by a "strategic reallocation" of manufacturing capacity toward high-margin AI components like High Bandwidth Memory (HBM), which is starving the supply of conventional DRAM and NAND for PCs and smartphones. This could boomerang too. But general consensus is that $Micron Technology(MU)$ could touch $500 in 2026. So, keeping fingers crossed & a prayer on the lips.
$Direxion Daily Semiconductors Bull 3x Shares(SOXL)$ I continue to accumulate SOXL using a dollar-cost averaging (DCA) approach because it aligns with how I view long-term semiconductor growth rather than short-term price movements. SOXL is inherently volatile due to its leveraged structure, and trying to time perfect entry points is, in my experience, more luck than skill. By spreading my entries over time, I stay invested in the structural upside of the semiconductor cycle without letting short-term noise dictate my decisions. Another key reason is my conviction in the long-term demand drivers behind semiconductors. AI, data centers, high-performance computing, and advanced manufacturing are not temporary trends—they are becoming core infra
$JPMorgan Chase(JPM)$ The Weekly Compass called it as bearish last Saturday. Note the precision of the selloff following Friday’s daily shooting star candle and the subsequent loss of the $324 Central Weekly Level (CWL). When price opened below the CWL on Monday, it validated a high-conviction short position. (As a reminder: investors can profit from downward moves through shorting just as they do from upward moves through long positions). JPM hit our initial targets of $323, $317.7, and $310.8 in rapid succession. When a level is breached with such conviction, you can navigate the move by trailing your stops lower, using the “support-turned-resistance” levels as a guide. Today JPM has reached oversold levels with an indecisive candle validated by
A year ago, if you wrote something nice about $Alphabet(GOOG)$ $Alphabet(GOOGL)$ , someone would respond with something like, “They’re cooked. Ever heard of ChatGPT?”The sentiment around Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai was about as bad as it could get. He didn’t know how to innovate. Google was terrible at making new products. A “woke” culture couldn’t win in AI (see early Gemini images). Today, Google seems inevitable. And I’m struck by how simple the answer was and continues to be as an investor. Buy Alphabets stock and just hang on for the ride! The History of DisruptionThe negative sentiment around Google was always about disruption. ChatGPT was first to “figure out” the AI chatbot, and that would disrupt
From Science Project to Supply Chain Infrastructure: Why I See Kodiak AI Crossing the Commercial Rubicon I have grown increasingly sceptical of autonomous vehicle stories framed as moonshots. They tend to promise robo-everything, everywhere, all at once, and then quietly collide with reality. Kodiak AI feels different, not because its technology is flashier, but because its ambition is deliberately dull. I do not see $Kodiak Robotics(KDK)$ as an autonomous vehicle company chasing a sci-fi future. I see it as a nascent piece of freight infrastructure, inching its way into the most economically dense arteries of global trade. That distinction matters more than most investors realise. Autonomy succeeds when it becomes infrastructure, not spectacle Aut
$Oscar Health, Inc.(OSCR)$ $Root, Inc.(ROOT)$ $UnitedHealth(UNH)$ I’m approaching this as a capital allocator, not a screen jockey. Sub-1x sales does not automatically mean cheap. It usually means the market is early, fearful, or unwilling to underwrite a transition. When I see businesses trading below 1x sales while margins are durably improving, segment economics strengthening, and cash-flow durability rising amid valuation resets, I pay attention regardless of narrative noise. Every name below is grounded in the revenue, segment, adjusted EBITDA, and inflection data provided. This is valuation reset plus mechanism. 🩺🚀 1) Oscar Health $OSCR
2026 S&P 500 Earnings Preview: A 15% Growth Story—Should Singapore Investors Double Down or Take Profits?The S&P 500 $S&P 500(.SPX)$ is poised to deliver its third consecutive year of double-digit earnings growth in 2026, with analysts forecasting a robust 15% year-over-year increase—well above the 10-year annual average of 8.6%. For Singapore-based investors heavily allocated to US equities, this begs a critical question: is this the time to accumulate or rebalance toward Asian opportunities?The "Magnificent 7" Narrative Frays at the EdgesHere’s the surprise: only two of the top five earnings growth contributors for 2026 belong to the fabled "Magnificent 7"—NVIDIA $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ and Meta
