      Rising for 7 Straight Days! Can Keppel Deliver Satisfying Earnings?

      Keppel Corporation (SGX: BN4) has been showing strong upward momentum. The stock has now risen for seven consecutive trading sessions, closing at $6.40, up 2.4% from the previous day — and steadily approaching its 52-week high of $7.03. This recent rally has caught the market’s attention, especially with Keppel’s upcoming earnings announcement on April 24. Adding to the excitement, Keppel recently secured nearly $2 billion in new capital commitments across its three flagship funds, raising its total funds under management (FUM) to $4.9 billion. This positions the company well in its transition toward an asset-light, solutions-driven business model. However, despite this positive momentum, I personally won’t be buying Keppel shares right now, and here’s why. Seven-Day Rally: Momentum or Mar

      Bitcoin Stands $90,000! Do You Agree Its "Digital Gold" Status Amidst Turmoil?

      Bitcoin has once again surged, breaking above the $90,000 mark and trading around $93,700 at the time of writing. As global uncertainty continues to ripple through financial markets, the "digital gold" narrative surrounding Bitcoin has reemerged with intensity. Sentiment is red-hot — the Bitcoin Fear & Greed Index has risen to 72, deep in “greed” territory. But not everyone is joining the party — and I count myself among the cautious. Despite the hype, I’m not holding Bitcoin, nor do I intend to buy it at these elevated levels. Euphoria or Bubble Territory? Bitcoin’s meteoric rise has always sparked debate. Supporters argue it’s a hedge against inflation, a decentralized store of value, and a key asset in a digitizing world. But at nearly $94,000, I believe we’re reaching frothy levels

      Stocks Soar, Gold Slips: Stay Bullish or Brace for a Turn at $3,300?

      After a meteoric rise that saw it break above $3,500—topping institutional price targets—gold has finally started to pull back, raising questions about whether the top is in or just a pause in a longer trend. Goldman Sachs recently updated its year-end gold forecast to $3,700, citing upside tail risks that could push the yellow metal as high as $4,500 under more extreme macro conditions. UBS followed suit, revising its own gold target to $3,500. But as institutions grow increasingly bullish on gold, some investors—myself included—are starting to question whether this is a good time to enter. Gold’s Run: Driven by Fear, Rates, and a Dollar in Flux The surge in gold has been fueled by a perfect storm of economic uncertainty, declining real yields, a weaker dollar etc. Central bank demand—par

      Nvidia Back to $100! Can Jensen Balance the US-China Chip Tug-of-War?

      After weeks of market volatility, Nvidia (NVDA) has rebounded back above the $100 mark, riding the broader tech rally and sustained investor enthusiasm around artificial intelligence (AI) and semiconductors. But the bigger story isn’t just the stock price — it’s the tightrope Nvidia is walking between U.S. national security policy and global business interests, particularly in China. Jensen’s Balancing Act: Between Washington and Beijing Nvidia is a U.S.-based company, but China remains a critical market. In recent years, Chinese firms have accounted for a significant portion of Nvidia’s data center and AI chip revenue. However, U.S. export controls, imposed to restrict China’s access to advanced semiconductors, have forced Nvidia to develop lower-spec alternatives for Chinese customers —

      Trump Flip-Flops 🤝 Fed? A Massive Rebound for S&P on the Way?

      In a notable shift, President Donald Trump declared that he has no intention of firing Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell. This statement marks a reversal from his previously combative stance toward Powell and appears to have reassured financial markets. Following the announcement, U.S. stocks, bonds, and the dollar rebounded, while gold—often a hedge against uncertainty—retreated from its recent highs. A Win for Market Stability—For Now Markets welcomed this sign of political restraint as a de-escalation of potential interference in monetary policy. The independence of the Federal Reserve is foundational to the credibility of U.S. financial institutions. If the Fed were seen as politically compromised, investor confidence could erode rapidly. Trump's assurance signals a willingness to

      Musk Returns to Tesla in May! Is This the Bottom Investors Have Been Waiting For?

      Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) shares surged over 5% in after-hours trading despite posting weaker-than-expected first-quarter results. The electric vehicle giant reported adjusted earnings of $0.27 per share on revenue of $19.34 billion, falling short of Wall Street expectations. Analysts polled by LSEG had projected earnings of $0.39 per share on $21.11 billion in revenue. While the earnings miss raised some concerns, investor sentiment appeared to turn bullish following Tesla's earnings call on Tuesday. CEO Elon Musk revealed that he plans to "significantly reduce" his involvement with Dogecoin starting in May and will shift more of his attention back to Tesla. Markets may have interpreted this as a signal of renewed focus on core operations, possibly reigniting confidence in Tesla's long-term st

      Rethinking Wealth and Life: Reflections on "Die With Zero: Getting All You Can from Your Money and Your Life" by Bill Perkins

      One book that truly shifted my perspective on money and life is Die With Zero: Getting All You Can from Your Money and Your Life by Bill Perkins. As part of my reflection, one sentence that captures the impact of the book on me is: "The book helped me see that managing money wisely also means knowing when and how to spend it to truly enjoy life." It challenged many of the conventional ideas I had absorbed about financial planning, especially the popular mantra of "save, save, invest, invest," and the pursuit of FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early). What stood out to me is how the book emphasizes the idea that life is not just about accumulating wealth—it's about using that wealth to create meaningful experiences while we’re still healthy enough to enjoy them. The book makes a compel

      I opened $Pfizer(PFE)$  ,In my view, PFE looks oversold, particularly when factoring in it's high dividend yield, which made it a compelling opportunity to add to my position.

      I opened $iShares 10-20 Year Treasury Bond ETF(TLH)$  ,Interest rates have been high for some time and I believe the risk of a recession still lingers. That's why I added more TLH as it would likely rise in value if a recession were to materialise.
