Elliott Wave Outlook: Dow Futures (YM) On Course for Breakout to Fresh Highs
Dow Futures ended the correction against the cycle from the April 2025 low at 45,065, which we identify as wave (2). From that level, the Index began to rally higher in wave (3). To confirm the bullish sequence, it must break above the prior wave (1) peak at 50,611. Such a move would eliminate the risk of a double correction. Importantly, other major indices such as the S&P 500 (SPX) and Nasdaq 100 (NQ) have already registered new highs, which reduces the probability of Dow Futures forming a double correction. From the wave (2) low, wave ((1)) advanced to 47,090. A subsequent pullback in wave ((ii)) found support at 46,076. The Index then nested higher, with wave (i) ending at 46,987 and wave (ii) retracing to 46,362. Momentum carried wave (iii) to 48,555, followed by a measured pullba

From my perspective, the $Amazon.com(AMZN)$ –Anthropic deal is less a “circular trade” and more about locking in demand. It may resemble the OpenAI– $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ dynamic, but the key is whether AWS revenue accelerates. If that $100B commitment materializes, it becomes a real backlog, not a bubble. I’m more bullish on the Anthropic + Bedrock layer than pure compute. Compute is capital-heavy, but enterprise lock-in is the real moat. As companies embed Claude via Amazon Web Services, switching costs rise — similar to $Microsoft(MSFT)$ ’s model. On $300, a re-rating like $Alphabet(GOOGL)$ is possible but needs clearer
TOPAdz5150: The partnership is clearly bullish for demand visibility, but I still think the market will keep asking whether those commitments translate into durable margin and cash flow, not just bigger spend.

For me, $Apple(AAPL)$ ’s earnings are more a “margin vs narrative” test than a pure upside surprise. iPhone and Mac strength is already well flagged, so the key isn’t just beating EPS—it’s whether Apple can defend its valuation during leadership transition while keeping margins stable. On memory costs, I lean toward Apple passing through part of the increase rather than fully absorbing it. DRAM and NAND inflation is too large to ignore, and absorbing it would hurt long-term earnings power. Modest price increases with stable demand would actually be more bullish, as it reinforces pricing power. Overall, I’m cautiously positive but not expecting a breakout. The real catalysts are WWDC and AI/Siri progress, plus the iPhone Fold cycle in 2026. If App

For me, this transition at $Apple(AAPL)$ is less about replacing Tim Cook and more about signaling the next decade’s priority. Cook’s legacy is clear—he scaled Apple into a $4T machine with unmatched operational efficiency. But that model was built for a smartphone-led era, while AI is faster and more platform-driven. That’s why I see John Ternus as both logical and risky. Logical because Apple’s strength is integrated hardware, which matters if AI shifts on-device. Risky because AI leaders today are defining ecosystems, not just refining products—and Apple has been relatively quiet. My base case: Ternus doesn’t need to reinvent Apple overnight, but he must shift it toward an AI-native ecosystem. If he can integrate silicon, devices, and service

🌟🌟Anthropic's commitment to spend over USD 100 billion on AWS technologies over the next 10 years is a masterclass in infrastructure lock-in, though it carries traits of the interconnected loop that fuels bubble debates. The Circular Economics: $Amazon.com(AMZN)$ is investing an additional USD 5 billion with an option for USD 20 billion more into Anthropic. In return Anthropic pledges USD 100 billion in AWS spending. Effectively Amazon is paying to acquire a USD 100 customer for its proprietary Trainium & Graviton chips. The Verdict: By backing both Anthropic and OpenAI, Amazon ensures that regardless of which model wins, the traffic stays on AWS. Its custom Trainium3 chips offer a 50% cost reduction over NVIDIA , giving i

🌟🌟🌟Pricing Power: NVIDIA, Amazon or Microsoft - Who holds the key? In the current AI infrastructure landscape, pricing power has shifted as companies move from generic compute to proprietary stacks. $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ still holds the ultimate pricing power at the hardware layer. Demand for GPUs continues to outpace supply, allowing NVIDIA to maintain huge operating margins of over 60%. $Amazon.com(AMZN)$ is rapidly gaining ecosystem pricing power.

🌟🌟🌟Can $Amazon.com(AMZN)$ break USD 300 after earnings? I believe that this is attainable within the next 12 months. Like Google, Amazon is being re evaluated not just as a retailer but as an AI infrastructure play. Analysts at Jefferies and Barclays have already set USD 300 price targets, citing AWS re-acceleration and the efficiency of in-house AI chips. Earnings Outlook: For the April earnings, TD Cowen predicts revenue & operating income to exceed consensus due to accelerating AWS growth. If Amazon meets these projections and its forward P/E expands to the mid 30s, AMZN could climb toward USD 312. I believe that Amazon is the most undervalued of the Magnificent 7. Its valuation is at its lowest point in nearly 2 d

💰April 22 Market Pulse: AI Rotation Collides with Hormuz Oil Jitters – Who’s Scooping Dips Before Earnings Fireworks? 😱📉
Markets opened mixed today as AI infrastructure names continued their selective rotation while geopolitical tensions over the Strait of Hormuz kept oil volatility elevated and risk appetite cautious. 😤 The S&P 500 hovered near record levels but showed internal divergence, with Nvidia and Meta holding firm on AI momentum while defense and energy plays saw inflows on the latest US-Iran developments. Emerging markets remained resilient, with Asia’s tech hubs pulling fresh capital on dollar dips to 94 and Latin America’s commodity flows adding 8% tailwinds. QT’s $1T liquidity buffer limited downside, but any escalation in Hormuz news could quickly amplify VIX moves toward 25.

My stock in focus today is $Astera Labs, Inc.(ALAB)$ , which surged over 9% on the back of strong catalysts. The main driver was Amazon.com expanding its AI investment into Anthropic, with potential commitments up to $25 billion and massive long-term cloud spending. This directly strengthens demand visibility across the AI infrastructure stack, where Astera is a key connectivity player. This move feels more structural than speculative. As hyperscalers scale AI, data movement and interconnect become critical bottlenecks—exactly where Astera Labs Inc. is positioned. The price tar

US $40T Debt Kills Economy & Stock Market ?
Current Fiscal Landscape. As of 20 Apr 2026, Singapore evening, US national debt stands at $39.14 trillion. This is about 120 –125% of US’s current GDP and it is fast approaching the psychological & economic threshold of $40 trillion. (see below) In contrast, on 20 Jan 2025, when Trump assumed the Oval Office for his 2nd term, US national debt stood at approx. $36.22 trillion. In a short span of 15 months, the current administration has managed to successfully pile on an additional $2.92 trillion, that is about a +8% increase in absolute debt OR an average increase of nearly $200 billion /month - instead of reducing national debt as promised during campaign trial. Attempts to cut Federal spending included: Trump’s brainchild of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), through ma

Sivers Semiconductors: Asymmetric Photonics Opportunity or Hype?
The more time passes since the AI revolution began, the more winners are emerging. $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ was the big first winner, making hundreds of billions from selling AI GPUs. Lately, the company has been throwing its weight around, investing in its suppliers and technology partners to ensure that the AI industry continues improving. And as we are starting to reach the limits of physics of what electrical signals can achieve, Nvidia has invested billions in the next generation of tech, photonics. Thanks to the company, the global AI industry is currently undergoing a structural transformation that favors speed, energy efficiency, and high-capacity data transmission. At the core of this transformation is the shift from electrical signals to light-bas
