2026 Mid-Year Global Market Review: H1 Performance Analysis, Breakout Star Regrets, and the H2 Watchlist
Everything you need to know in one place.[Happy] The second half of 2026 marks an important turning point for investors. While artificial intelligence remained the main market theme, the key drivers of stock performance shifted. During the first half of the year, markets faced major economic and geopolitical uncertainty, yet many companies continued to report strong earnings. Many investors felt they had missed out as several AI hardware and storage companies delivered massive gains after rapid breakouts. At the same time, heavy investment in AI infrastructure left many enterprise software companies trading at more attractive valuations, creating potential opportunities for the rest of the year. Macroeconomic & Geopolitical Vectors of H1 2026 The first half of 2026 was shaped by geopol

Why I'm buying $NOK before the official U.S. pre-market even opens and before most American investors are awake.
A major geopolitical defense catalyst may be emerging. According to a Finnish newspaper, Ukraine's armed forces are using $Nokia Oyj(NOK)$ Nokia's specialized tactical 5G technology to guide drones deep into enemy territory. Reports indicate Russian electronic warfare systems have struggled to jam the Nokia 5G network used by Ukrainian drone units. Even more interesting, several NATO countries—including the United States—are reportedly evaluating the technology for their own military applications. Sources familiar with defense and foreign policy discussions reportedly say that "deals are definitely coming." Adding to the momentum, NATO has invited Nokia to participate in the Ankara Summit Industrial Forum on July 7–8. If these reports tr

Axioma ROOF™ Score Highlights: Week of July 6, 2026
Investor sentiment was little changed last week, but the broader trend remains lower than a month ago. The sharpest move came from US investors, where sentiment fell from bullish to negative. Global Developed ex-US sentiment also declined, moving from bullish to neutral and confirming a wider downswing across developed markets. Across the ten markets we follow, sentiment now enters the summer months on the backfoot, with investors less confident, more reactive, and more exposed to emotion-driven swings. Elevated retail participation in leveraged ETFs and other directional instruments only amplifies that risk. The old saying that markets climb a wall of worry is simply the Stoic injunction to wear the world like a loose garment, translated into the language of finance. The lesson is to ackn

At China's Fudan University, Students Took a Final Exam by Trying to Make AI Fail
TMTPOST —The final exam at one of China's top universities began without exam papers, proctors or even questions for students to answer. Instead, 51 undergraduates sat in front of computer screens and tried to trick some of the world's most advanced artificial-intelligence models into making mistakes. Their assignment: design exam questions difficult enough to defeat Anthropic's Claude, China's DeepSeek and MiniMax. The better the AI performed, the worse the students' grades. The unusual experiment at Fudan University in Shanghai reflects a challenge confronting schools, employers and governments around the world as AI systems become increasingly capable: If machines can already outperform humans on many traditional academic tasks, what exactly should humans be learning—and how should they

Sembcorp Slides Further on Downgraded Forecast; 5x (UZMW) & -5x (X7GW) DLCs in Focus
$Sembcorp Ind(U96.SI)$ came under pressure on Monday (6 July) morning, falling as much as 3.84% after last Friday's -3.4% slide as research analysts downgraded their forecasts on the stock. Amplifying the move, the $Sembcorp 5xLongSG270623(UZMW.SI)$ surged up to 19.2% intraday, with the $Sembcorp 5xShortSG270331(X7GW.SI)$ falling a similar magnitude. The move extended Sembcorp’s 7-day losing streak, with the stock down 11.7% since 25 June and now trading below its 50-, 100- and 200-day moving averages. For investors who view the sell-off as overdone, the Sembcorp 5x Long DLC offers an efficient way to gain leveraged exposure to a potential technical rebou

$Silvercorp Metals Inc(SVM)$ Had wanted to share $ECHOIQ LTD(EIQ.AU)$ again, as it appears to be the gift 🎁 that keeps giving in this volatile time. However, the recovery of silver price along with Dow Jones seems to be catch of Thursday. Silver, as we already know, had a horrible June. Sell in May and go away seems to be the most appropriate action in a World Cup year! I did sell some before silver's last peak, but had kept the main bulk. Silvercorp, the miner i had shared previously in a separate article, had corrected a lot more than the drop in silver price in the past few days. As shared previously, Silvercorp has much outperforming $ProSha
TOPI added SVM calls yesterday too. Longer dated makes more sense here — giving it past that output hit?
