    My focus today will be on silver $FUT:Silver - main 2603(SImain)$ , especially after this sharp pullback. The recent move feels more like a liquidity-driven shakeout than a breakdown in fundamentals, but that doesn’t mean prices can’t stay volatile in the near term. After such a crowded trade unwinds, the market needs time to rebuild confidence & depth.

    At this stage, I’m firmly in the “steady first, act later” camp. The long-term logic for precious metals remains intact, yet short-term liquidity is clearly thin and sentiment fragile. I’d rather anchor my portfolio with gold ETFs as a core holding, while watching silver patiently for signs that selling pressure is easing.

    Only when emotions cool and the gold–silver ratio stops spiking would I consider adding silver gradually. This is not a moment to test courage or timing skills; it’s about discipline and survival. Missing the first rebound is acceptable—being caught in another forced sell-off is not.

    Good to diversify. So not just precious metals, but have REITs, broad index ETFs as part of your portfolio.

    As always, having a diverse portfolio is important, but I am certain that precious metals overall trend will be upwards.
    Gold has not had a significant drop such that investors have to panic about its value. As long as you are rational and not selling when small slides happen, precious metal is a safe haven to park some money.
    Take for example when gold went up and people felt priced out, they flooded into silver and triggered an insane spike. This wave flooded into Platinium and Palladium too, so all the metals are shining very bright.

    所以,面对风险资产同步降温,我的策略不是追热点,而是做减法:降低杠杆,拉长周期,把注意力从价格波动转回到结构变化。市场真正的新一波机会,往往诞生在这种“故事开始降温、资金开始犹豫”的阶段。

    问题不在于你现在赚不赚钱,而在于——当下一次趋势真正启动时,你是否还在场内,而且心态足够冷静。

    Pullback after rally is expected. No panic and hold on some.

    Diversifying into bonds or real estate by using ETFs with systematic rebalancing helps hedge against the risk while supporting the accumulation of physical reserves to capture projected 2026 growth from central bank buying and green tech demand

    $Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$  said late Monday that AI startup Manus has joined the company to help accelerate the rollout of general purpose AI agents for consumers and businesses.

    Manus has developed an autonomous AI agent for tasks such as research, coding, and data analysis, and Meta will continue selling the service while integrating it across its products, including Meta AI, the report said.

    Meta Platforms added that the Manus team will join its AI unit to expand agent-based capabilities across consumer and business products as it scales AI tools globally.

    Shares of Meta Platforms were down 0.4% in recent after-hours activity.

    相较之下,新加坡市场给我的感觉更踏实。指数不躁动,企业新闻偏向修复,房地产、IPO、交易量这些“慢变量”正在改善。它不制造暴富神话,却在帮资金寻找落脚点。

    贵金属的暴跌尤其值得反思。白银这几年被赋予太多叙事:新能源、AI、去美元化、抗通胀。但当价格跑得太快,杠杆堆得太高,任何一个流动性缺口都会被放大成踩踏。我更倾向把这次下跌看成一次“现实校准”,而不是趋势终结。真正的问题不是银价跌了多少,而是你是否在用对的仓位、对的周期去参与。

    一边是政策不确定性上升。特朗普再次对美联储施压、甚至放话考虑更换鲍威尔,这不是短期噪音,而是在提醒市场:2026年的货币环境可能不再那么线性。另一边是资金行为的变化更耐人寻味。Cathie Wood减持特斯拉、白银ETF出现多年罕见的大跌、Strategy继续加码比特币却换来股价新低——这些都不是“情绪性操作”,而是高波动资产在高位阶段的自然分化。

    站在2025年年底回看这一周的市场,我反而觉得它比大涨的日子更有信息量。美股在新年前回落,科技股集体降温,看似杂乱的新闻,其实指向同一个主题:资金开始重新思考“下一步往哪去”。
