S&P 500 closes in red as Trump knocks China once again
The S&P 500 staged a big comeback from its lows on Tuesday, but gave a lot of it back again before the closing bell as U.S. and China traded blows in a renewed trade feud. President Donald Trump criticized China for not buying soybeans late in the day, a comment that pushed the S&P 500 into the red to finish the session. The S&P 500 closed down 0.2% to 6,644.31 in a wild day that saw the benchmark fall as much as 1.5% and gain 0.4% at its highs. The Nasdaq Composite was off by 0.8% to 22,521.70, although at one point it had fallen as much as 2.1%.The Dow Jones Industrial average closed up 0.4%, or 202.88 points, to 46,270.46 after gaining nearly 1% at one point. It was lower by 1.3% initially shortly after the open. Caterpillar led the gains in the Dow. Stoc
“The Market Operator" Trump Acts Again: Will He Mess Up This Time?
The president who most enjoys disrupting markets, Trump, has made a move again this past weekend. As the saying goes, his actions were fierce and fast, and he seems to read the market’s rise and fall like a true master. After stirring turmoil—especially in the cryptocurrency space—with his provocative tweets, he then reassured the market by saying "it’s nothing," which helped trigger a rebound. After several rounds of toying with market sentiment, the question now is: can this tactic still work this time?We have previously emphasized two main factors likely to influence the market: one is Trump’s own health condition and the internal uncertainties it brings to the US; the other is the evolving relationship between China and the US. Of course, the trigger for the China-US relationship chang

How to handle vertical spread expiration? Practical case analysis
Vertical Spread is a strategy that combines two options with the same strike date and the same type (both call or put), but with different strike prices. By buying and selling two option contracts, investors limit returns and risks, so that profits and losses are fixed within a certain range. According to different directions, vertical spreads can be divided into Bull Call Spread and Bear Call Spread.At expiration, the settlement of the vertical spread follows standard option exercise principles. The system will determine whether each Leg (Leg) is In the Money (In the Money) or Out of the Money (Out of the Money) based on the maturity settlement price of the underlying asset: if the option is Out of the Money, it will automatically be invalidated; If it is in the price, it will be automati
【CN Assets Pick】16 How Hong Kong’s Leveraged & Inverse ETFs Amplify Both Opportunity and Risk
While most investors are still debating whether “China assets are a slow bull,” another crowd has already shifted into a higher gear. They don’t wait for policy guidance or study annual reports — they trade on every tick of the index. These are the players of leveraged and inverse ETFs.As Hong Kong’s market revives, southbound inflows hit record highs, and the Hang Seng Tech ETF surged more than 15 percent in a month, short-term money is heating up again. For aggressive investors, leveraged and inverse ETFs have become the new weapons for amplifying gains — and, inevitably, losses.But like every sharp weapon, it cuts both ways. The moment you grip it, you must remember: this is a double-edged blade.1.Leveraged & Inverse ETFs — the Market’s “Turbo” and “Reverse Gear”In the investing wor
$NVIDIA(NVDA)$$Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$$Intel(INTC)$ 🎯🧠📉 NVDA Marubozu Breaks the Shelf; Momentum Hands the Ball to Bears 📉🧠🎯 I’m calling this a defining moment for Nvidia. The clean, full-bodied marubozu breakdown on 14Oct25 wasn’t just a bad day; it was a decisive momentum shift that sliced through a multi-month shelf in the mid-$180s, forcing weak hands out and signalling that control has swung sharply to the bears. Price Action Snapshot Nvidia printed a textbook bearish marubozu candle, breaking decisively below critical support with no intraday shadows. The clarity of the move reflects overwhelming sell-side conviction and capitulation from late buyers.
$POP MART(09992)$ I’ve been watching Pop Mart (HK: 9992) closely lately, and I’m more convinced than ever this is one of the best long-term plays out there — here’s why I’m bullish and why now is the time to buy and hold. 🎯 A special LABUBU, and what it might mean Something really interesting just happened: Pop Mart created a custom LABUBU figurine specifically for the Apple CEO, holding a mini LABUBU in hand. That’s not just a cute gift — symbolically, it signals that Pop Mart wants Apple to notice. To me, that’s a possible opening gambit. If Pop Mart can secure even a modest form of collaboration with Apple — joint limited editions, device tie-ins, or collector bundles — the upside could be explosive. The Ap
$Rigetti Computing(RGTI)$$Oklo Inc.(OKLO)$$SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ 🔥💰🚨 Massive Dark Pool Activity Signals Institutional Rotation 🚨💰🔥🐋 🌊 I’m watching something significant unfold beneath the surface. Dark pool activity spiked aggressively across multiple sectors and individual names on 14Oct25, and the scale of these prints suggests institutions are repositioning ahead of major moves. For newer traders, these flows often appear invisible on the tape—but they can quietly set the stage for powerful breakouts or inflection points. 📘 Understanding Dark Pools Dark pools are private exchanges where institutions execute large trades away from the public eye.
