To The Moon

At year-end, let’s review the key investment opportunities from the year based on risk, difficulty, and return.Did you catch any of them or did they slip through your fingers?1. Gold Surges 70%, Silver Rushes 170% YTD Difficulty: ⭐️ Risk: ⭐️⭐️ Return: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Gold began 2025 near a low of around $2,600/oz but surged to a fresh high of $4,500/oz by December. Analysts point to inventory depletion, a collapsing gold–silver ratio, and a structural supply deficit as forces underpinning a long-term bull market for silver. $SPDR Gold ETF(GLD)$ $iShares Silver Trust(SLV)$ 2. $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ April Low at $86 to $200+ and $5 Trillion Market Cap Difficulty: ⭐️ Risk: ⭐️⭐️ Re

Missed some "easy trade" opportunities but no regrets. Will be glad to just stay evergreen.

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$   Which event truly defines 2025 in your view?: there are a couple actually, but the most impactful event is the liberation day tariffs announced on 2.4.2025 that started the market fall like nothing else did. , stand as the year's most transformative event. Over 2 days, it ended up erasing $6.6 trillion market value overnight. What trade taught you the most this year?: again a couple. However, the big lesson is to buy the boom,m but hedge the blow and believe in the fundamentals and don't follow the hype alone. 

I think trump’s liberation day and the related taco trades really defined 2025. The stock market responded in fear and dropped rapidly, bringing back to memories of Covid and the market crash that was still fresh in many minds. Of course, his taco also brought the stock market to the later upswings and dips again when the so-called trade talks failed and tariffs were introduced or heightened. I think the taco trades really taught me the most this year. It taught me to really depend on fundamentals yet also allowed me to capitalise on the market volatility to trade on top of just investing. It taught me to be really convicted about fundamentals and to block out all noise and fear to continue to add to my positions. Of course, when the fear subsided and the stock prices rebounded, I took pro

🌟🌟🌟"Easy Trades" are the ultimate stock market myth.  They only look obvious in the rear view mirror once the charts are already printed and the millions have been made.  In 2025 it might feel like common sense that Gold would skyrocket or NVIDIA would hit USD 5 Trillion.  But back in April, most of us were sweating over tariffs & recession fears. That is why I have invested in $Vanguard Total World Stock ETF(VT)$ as it gives me exposure to over 8,000 stocks globally from the US, China, Europe and Asia. When NVIDIA surges, I already own it because it is VT's top holding. When Tesla hits new highs? I already have a piece of the action. Even China's Big Tech stocks.  They are all part of VT holdings. In 2025 VT delivered a re

Got my AMD low price , but it not moving fast to gain [Miser][Miser]

yes what a miss! I should have trade more

Looking back at 2025, I missed the precious metals rally and AMD’s catch-up move. Gold, silver, and AMD all benefited from strong macro and AI-driven trends, but I stayed on the sidelines and underestimated how quickly these opportunities would reprice. On the bright side, I’m glad I caught the Tesla rebound. The $200 level held firmly, offering an attractive risk–reward setup, and the recovery reinforced the value of stepping in when sentiment is most negative. It also reminded me how important patience is when a long-term thesis remains intact despite short-term noise. Overall, the year reminded me that the best opportunities often feel uncomfortable in real time. Going forward, I’ll pay more attention to overlooked themes and secondary beneficiaries, not just the obvious market leaders

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ tesla reaching $500, should i hold till next split?  Looking forward some advice from gurus.

should have bought more of all the stocks including $Alibaba(BABA)$ and $Vanguard S&P 500 ETF(VOO)$ the moment when Trump commenced his presidency this year [LOL] missed the $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ boom but no regrets as I still feel it is just a flashy stock

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ What truly defines 2025 The defining feature of 2025 was not a single headline event, but the re-pricing of uncertainty. Markets learned to operate with political volatility, rapid technological acceleration, and shifting policy signals all at once. Trump’s return amplified policy risk, but it did not break markets. Instead, capital adapted. If one theme stands out, it is the computing and AI capex boom. Unlike prior tech cycles, this was not driven purely by narrative. It was underpinned by real balance-sheet spending, energy demand, data-centre build-outs, and second-order effects across semiconductors, power, and materials. That structural shift reshaped capital allocation globally and quietly set the tone for future grow

🌟🌟🌟Ah 2025: The year my portfolio became a tapestry woven with threads of Triumph , Regrets and Cautious Mediocrity.  As the year concludes , I am reflecting on those supposedly "easy" trade opportunities that defined the market, all while trying to be maintain my fragile sense of financial competence. However I can't pretend I missed everything.  My inner Gold and Silver bugs came out to play, catching the glorious surge in Gold and Silver through my 2 ETFs $iShares Gold Trust(IAU)$  and $iShares Silver Trust(SLV)$   I also managed to hop on the $NVIDIA(NVDA)$  rocket

$Alphabet(GOOG)$ GOOG is demonstrating robust performance with solid earnings, high trading volume, and favorable analyst recommendations, though its valuation multiples suggest premium pricing.

My investment in Apr 2025 especially Tesla

For me, the most regretful one is missing out on stock more of $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ during its low. Had gotten some but could have been more greedy then to buy more. But it’s fine, will wait for future opportunities. Tagging for coins @Fenger1188

no regrets..in retrospect, every trade seems easy, that you should have known. but the truth is no one knows the market direction. for e.g. can anyone sat which stock will go up next and buy when. timing the market sounds sexy and smart but it's hard. Best advice is to do your research, manage risk through your allocation, and stock to your plan unless something is fundamentally wrong. hone your skills not think about regret

As 2025 comes to a close, I'm looking back with a huge smile—this year has been a game-changer for my portfolio!  My secret sauce? Selling cash-secured puts every single day on quality, undervalued stocks. Those juicy premiums roll in consistently, and I immediately funnel them into rock-solid, high-liquidity assets like the LionGlobal USD Enhanced Liquidity Fund and Fullerton USD Money Market Fund. It's the perfect combo: generating active income from options while quietly compounding in ultra-safe, USD-denominated funds. Steady wins, low stress, and serious growth.  Grateful for the discipline that made this possible—what's the one strategy that crushed it for you in 2025? Drop it below! 👇

$Tiger Brokers(TIGR)$ momentum is the name of the game 

🌟2025 was defined by "The Great Diversification". This is a massive shift where the world realises that leaning solely on US Big Tech was no longer enough. While 2024 was about AI Hype, 2025 was the year economic reality & geopolitical shocks forced investors to look elsewhere. The Defining Event of 2025 was April 2025 - Trump's Liberation Day & the tariff shock which revealed a sweeping regime of tariffs, up to 145% on Chinese goods.  This sent the global markets into a literal meltdown. However 2025 is also the year that the S&P500 and Gold hit their all time highs. The most valuable lesson I learnt this year was to expect the unexpected. Fortunately diversification saved the day.  Diversification isn't about lack of conviction.  It is about humility.  It

I have many stocks in my watchlist. Too many. So many, in fact, that watching them feels like trying to follow a hundred toddlers on a sugar high—prices ticking up and down every second, each one screaming, “Look at me! No, look at me!” Inevitably, when I finally buy a stock, the price immediately goes down. And when I sell? That same stock suddenly remembers it’s supposed to go up. Every. Single. Time. By the end of 2025, I finally accepted an uncomfortable truth: the stock market has a strange emotional connection to me, and that connection is mostly revenge. Despite this, I like to think I’ve been investing responsibly. My usual method is very sensible. I look at the current price relative to the 52-week range and historical range. I check the company’s financial strength. I look at div

If you asked me which trade taught me the most this year, I’d say Wendy’s (WEN). Yes, Wendy’s. It started simply enough: I bought shares at $10.98 and thought, “Seems reasonable. The company is fine. Burgers aren’t going anywhere. What could possibly go wrong?” Wendy's (WEN) A few months later, Wendy’s was down to around $8.29. And my reaction? Picture me staring at the screen like it had personally betrayed me, whispering, “Really? You’re doing this to me?” Once I calmed down, I reminded myself—very rationally, like an adult—that the company wasn’t broken. People were still lining up for Frostys, Baconators etc. Fundamentally, nothing had changed except the number on my screen and my blood pressure. So what did I do? Absolutely nothing. I sat there, clutching my coffee like it was emotion
