To The Moon

In a move that's got the crypto world buzzing, Michael Saylor, the unyielding Bitcoin advocate and MicroStrategy chairman, just dropped a teaser that's pure gold for HODLers. With his latest post featuring the iconic Saylor Bitcoin Tracker and the punchy caption "Bitcoin Deserves Credit," it's clear the man isn't slowing down. This isn't just talk—it's a pattern. MicroStrategy has been on a relentless buying spree, turning the company into one of the largest corporate Bitcoin holders on the planet. Last quarter alone, they scooped up thousands more BTC amid market dips, proving Saylor's philosophy: buy the fear, hold through the storm, and watch the value compound. Why does this matter right now? Bitcoin's ecosystem is exploding with institutional interest. From ETFs pulling in billions to

Economic Calendar: Key Market Movers (week of 15Sep25) Public Holidays There are no public holidays in Singapore, the USA, Hong Kong and China. Observations (Economic Calendar) Retail Sales and Consumption Retail sales and retail sales data serve as crucial indicators for understanding consumer consumption trends within the U.S. market. This information provides insight into consumer spending habits and overall economic health. Federal Reserve Interest Rate Decision The most closely watched economic event is the Federal Reserve's interest rate decision. The market has largely anticipated a 25-basis-point (bps) rate cut, a sentiment likely influenced by pressure from President Trump. This expectation is already priced into current market positions, which means a decision not to cut rates co

Earnings Calendar (15Sep25) There are a few interesting earnings in the coming week that include FactSet, FedEx and Lennar. Let us look at FedEx, as Logistics is a good reference for the market. Looking at how busy a company like FedEx is can give you an early hint about where the economy is heading. If they report that their shipping volume is up, it's a good sign. If it's down, it could be an early warning of a potential economic slowdown. This makes them a great "leading indicator" for the stock market and the economy. Stock Performance & Analyst Consensus FedEx's stock has experienced a decline, falling 18% over the past year. Technical analysis suggests a neutral rating for the stock. However, a majority of analyst sentiment remains bullish, with a consensus "Buy" rating. The

🚀 Crypto IPO Fever: FIGR +30%, GEMI +14%! Bubble or Breakthrough? The crypto world just reminded Wall Street — and Main Street — that hype is still alive. Forget Bitcoin for a moment. The real fireworks are coming from crypto IPOs, where fresh listings like Figure ($Figure Technology Solutions(FIGR)$  ) and Gemini $Gemini Space Station, Inc.(GEMI)$   are attracting both institutional money and retail FOMO. FIGR surged +30% this week, cementing itself as one of the hottest listings of 2025. GEMI gained +14% on debut, proving there’s still strong demand, even as the broader market battles volatility. At a time when traditional IPOs often stumble, these crypto-linked names are defying gravity.

✨ Gold’s Record Run: Can Aussie Miners Keep Glittering? 💰 Gold has smashed through $3,600/oz, clocking an eye-watering +36.6% YTD and rewriting the history books. This is no ordinary rally — it’s the strongest surge since 2011, turning bullion into the hottest safe haven on the planet. And the impact? Australia’s gold miners are going vertical. With the ASX already heavy on resources, this isn’t just a sector story — it’s reshaping the entire market narrative. --- 🚀 Aussie Gold Miners: Who’s Winning? The scoreboard is staggering: NEM & EVN: nearly +100% YTD (double your money in months!) PRU: +66% 📈 NST: +35% 🔥 GOLD.AU ETF: +32% — beating most global indices Compare that to the ASX200’s modest +8% and it’s clear: gold isn’t just outperforming, it’s obliterating the benchmark. For retai

For this week, I’m leaning optimistic on the U.S. stock market. The combination of AI-driven momentum and expectations of a Fed rate cut continues to provide a strong backdrop, even though inflation data is still above target. Markets have shown resilience, and small caps leading with six straight weeks of gains is another sign of improving breadth. That said, my main watchpoint is Tesla $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ . After last week’s strong breakout, I expect volatility to pick up as traders test whether the move has legs or if profit-taking sets in. Tesla has become a sentiment driver—its next moves could influence tech momentum broadly. Overall, I see short-term di

Tit-for-Tat in Tech: China Probes U.S. Analog Chipmakers After New Sanctions What Happened? In a swift retaliatory move, China's Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM) has launched an anti-dumping investigation into specific analog semiconductor imports from the United States. This action follows the latest decision by the U.S. Department of Commerce's Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) to add another 32 Chinese entities to its export control list. According to the Jiangsu Semiconductor Industry Association, the probe directly targets several publicly traded U.S. giants, including $Texas Instruments(TXN)$   , $Analog Devices(ADI)$  

As I look at the recent update from JPMorgan cutting Pop Mart's $POP MART(09992)$   target price from HK$400 to HK$300, I tend to agree with this adjustment. The share price has rallied significantly this year, driven by strong first-half results, the Uniqlo collaboration, index inclusion, and the opening of gold jewelry stores. It feels like the stock has already priced in these catalysts, and now might be a good time for it to take a breather and cool down the frenzy that's been building up. I believe maintaining investor excitement without near-term major catalysts could be challenging for Pop Mart. The momentum that carried the stock this far might wane if there's no clear, immediate driver to keep the

$POP MART(09992)$  I really like the way Pop Mart is shaping up right now. If you can grab this stock around the “aunty price” of 210–220, it looks like one of those rare chances where you just buy, tuck it away, and don’t worry for a few years. The numbers are already showing how solid the company is — revenue for the first half of 2025 jumped over 200%, and profit shot up even faster, almost four times higher than the year before. That’s not a small move; it shows people are buying into their brand big time. What makes Pop Mart different is that it’s not just selling toys — it’s building culture. Characters like Labubu, Molly, and Crybaby aren’t just products, they’re part of a global fan craze. People collect the

 I think this will  go past 430 USD in the next few days. The rally has a big momentum, and a lot of shortcallers are getting squezzed now potentially sending the price even higher.  Robotaxi have a lot going for it. If they can get it to the next level quickly and efficiently.  It's going to be another interesting week . A lot is also weighing on the Feds cutting interest rates this week. It's already getting priced into the market for a cut of 0.25 percent. Let's get some popcorn and watch the rally ! 😀  ( Not investment advice )
